Bass driven sound, looks and practicality with firm clamp
The JBL Tune 500BT has slightly lower sound quality than the Sennheiser HD250BT (side by side recordings of these on my Amazon profile YouTube channel) with more present and impactful but also woolier bass and slightly less clarity. It still sounds good though more consumer rather than pro. The bass can also be toned down and comfort improved by extending the headband to loosen the clamp, though that clamp does mean it isolates you from background noise a bit better than the Sennheiser.The JBL is less comfortable for long periods due to high clamping force which is over more of the outer ear and its slightly heavier at 156g.Now usability is where the JBL moves ahead.It is cheaper, more fashionable looking, foldable, has track skip via long pressing the volume controls, is more secure with stronger clamping force and has multipoint to let you pair to 2 devices at the same time. This prevents, for example, missed calls on the phone while a tablet is being used, as playback is automatically interrupted and continued after the call. Mic quality is fine in both noisy and quiet environments and perfectly intelligible tho less rich sounding than the Sennheiser.On the downside however it has a shorter battery life of 16h v 25h, charging fully in 2h v 3.5h via Micro usb rather than USB C and no aptx low latency codec or app to bake in a different EQ. That said I didn't notice any latency with YouTube and was fine with the sound - you can always tone down the bass using EQ on your phone or streaming app.In summary, the package of good sound quality with the popular bass driven sound signature in a fashionable folding design that sits very securely on the head at a lower price represents great value.If you found this helpful please click like - and if not please click dislike twice :-)

Amazing headphones for good price!
I believe these headphones are incredible for day to day use, They're small, malleable, and are amazing quality. The headphones can wirelessly connect to most - if not all - devices under the sun given the device supports bluetooth.These headphones have a phenomenal battery life only losing 5-10% in 6 hours of usage. The audio is also crisp and bass heavy providing a perfect balance between many aspects. The microphone in the headphones, unlike many others, supports a loud and crisp output meaning the headphones have a very good multi-function of input and output. They're very comfortable to wear too!

Good value
I got these on offer for around £20, and for this price they're pretty decent. I wanted a pair of wireless headphones for the gym and these fit the bill.The connection is stable, and the microphone is acceptable for making calls, though this only seems to be for phone calls (I haven't figured out whether I can use these for voice notes on WhatsApp).Sound quality is okay, not great. Bass is boosted but it doesn't feel natural, maybe a little bit tinny. I have a large head, so maybe a little bit tight for extended wear, but okay for an hour or so. Construction is sturdy enough. Battery life is okay too.For £20 these are pretty decent, but I think I would be disappointed if I had paid more for them.

Good quality for the price
I was looking around for some headphones that weren’t too expensive and I cam across these, and I must say for the price they do tick all the boxes. They were very easy to pair, when I turned them on they were already in pair mode and connected to my phone with eas. The sound quality is great for the price and battery life is good. These aren’t the noise cancelling ones but they still cancel noise a bit which is good. I mainly use these headphones in the gym and they work pretty well, must say that these are better sound quality compared to my £140 airpods. One downside is when I was using them in the gym they can hurt your ears after a long period of time but taking them off for five minutes can stop that. I definitely recommend these if your in the market for some budget headphones!

Good set of earphones they look good quality and the sound is great!
Bought these Bluetooth headphones as my new pad does not support my old faithful wired ones!They appear good quality and the sound is extremely good as well.The volume is exceptional be careful! And the audio does not distort in any way that I could make it but I didn’t want to blow my eardrums away!All the controls are on one ear piece once you get used to them you can reach them straight away no problem. Only suggestion to the manufacturers is make the on off press button a different colour red for example or yellow so initially you can visually find it.All the controls are on one earpiece once you get used to them you can reach them when wearing them straight away no problem.The earphones are quite tight probably because they are new at the moment and press snuggly on my ear .Only suggestion to the manufacturers is make the on off press button a different colour red for example or yellow so initially you can find it. This however does not detract from using it once you find it you know exactly where to reach on your ear.A very good battery life before recharge....don’t know how long the battery will last though as it’s built-in to the earphones and probably can’t be replaced but that’s the same with most of these type of products nowadays! hopefully will last for years.

Good value and reliable
Connect to my iPhone every time without issue. Battery seems to last for ages. They fold up small enough to put in my coat pocket and they have a robust build quality that I can’t fault. They sit softly on the ears compared to some which is a good thing.The sound quality is fine for this price range, I wanted something that I was not worried about losing to take to the gym and so far they’ve served me well (not lost them yet).
