Great features! User friendly.
I am over the moon with this headphone. I used it know for over a month. It came with a printed manual which I didn't understand. But, the headphone also comes with an app which is so easy to use and to get to know your headphones. The headphones have an option to put on a volume limiter which is handy when you became older and want to protect your ears. You can also choose for an option where you can still hear the traffic. The only downside is that I can't bend over while wearing the headphones, otherwise they fall off. Overall it is worth the price!

Great headphone!
These headphones are absolutely amazing! Not only do they fit perfectly on my head and ears thanks to the soft ear cushions, but the noise-canceling feature is also fantastic. I mainly use my headphones while studying, so that feature was a real game-changer. The ambient awareness feature is also great for going for a walk. Pairing the headphones with a device is super fast, too. I highly recommend them!

Love these headphones!
I’ve been using these headphones for a few weeks now, and I’m very pleased with them. Most importantly, the sound quality is excellent. Everything sounds crystal clear, especially with the noise cancellation turned on. It’s also great that you can enable the ambient mode when you don’t want to completely block out background noise. The headphones are comfortable to wear, although they can feel a bit warm in higher temperatures. The battery life is outstanding—I’ve only had to charge them once so far—and they recharge quickly as well. The Bluetooth connection is smooth, reliable, and offers an impressive range. Overall, I would definitely recommend these headphones.

JBL 680NC
The JBL 680NC is a great product, noise cancelling (True ANC 2.0) headphone especially for their strong bass response, long battery life, and affordability compared to premium competitors. Great value for money. Software refresh direct avaible in the JBL headphones app. Easy to connect. The battery is really excellent. Model 680NC up to 80 hours (without ANC) of playtime on a single charge. The "Speed Charge" feature is incredibly convenient, giving you hours of playback with only 5 minute charge. Four-mic ANC 2.0 clears away distractions so you can focus, relax, or just enjoy the quiet. The refreshed design feels as good as it sounds, with earcups shaped for comfort and acoustic precision, a sturdy metal hinge for lasting durability, and a clean, modern look that fits your style. Calls sound natural and clear thanks to the AI-trained algorithm, while the lightweight fit keeps you comfortable through long stretches of work, travel, or downtime.

Great headphones! Very happy with them.
Microphone quality is far better than my iMac’s build in microphone. im amazed with with the placement of the mic(I still have no idea where it’s located) my over all voice chats experience improved a lot. Had to swap microphone on Mac manually (not a big deal but was annoying to figure it out… it’s probably due to my computer’s settings).Over all voice quality is top notch I’m finding my self using my headphones even though I’m alone at home. It’s so crazy to experience the difference in between the build in audio system of my computer and headphone. It was a nice surprise to experience the distance of Bluetooth it can hold up. My previous headphones was unable to stay connected to my computer once I went down stairs but this one surprised me a lot with the distance it can hold. Lovely, LOVELY battery life and charge time! My biggest issue so far is the learning curve of the touch sensitive control on side of the headphone. Kind a panicking when I press something by mistake but probably once I got it to muscle memory it should be good to go. Also power on-off switch is also interesting compared the rest of the control system.

Fine headset
The headset fits snugly around the ear and has perfect noise canceling. It’s also nice that you can choose from different settings depending on how much ambient noise you want to block out. For me, the headset is a bit too tight, and I tend to sweat in it quite quickly. The sound quality is excellent, but if I move around and get a bit further away from my device, the connection drops out. I’m not sure if it’s down to my smartphone/Bluetooth or the headset itself. It’s a shame, because otherwise it’s top quality.
