Super Light, Great Battery Life, App Connectivity

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tune 520 are over-ear headphones, made of plastic with faux-leather earcups. Like I said they’re very lightweight and the earcup padding is plush, but the clamping force is pretty high so those with larger heads (like me) will be uncomfortable after even a moderate listening session. Those with normal-sized heads might feel differently. Overall, the construction seems pretty good. The controls on the 520 are straightforward and similar to other JBL units. There are buttons on the right ear cup to help you turn the phones on and off, adjust volume, skip tracks forward and backwards, play/pause audio. The power button is also used for Bluetooth, and the upgrade to Bluetooth 5.3 is a nice addition. The headphones support multi-point connection, which means that they can connect to two devices. Charging is handled by USB-C. You can also adjust the equalization using the JBL Headphones app. The 520s delivered very balanced sound out of the box. It was extremely flat, but connecting to the app allows you to tailor them to your liking. Stereo separation is great and the bass extension in the app provides a ton of punch. It took me a little while, but I was able to get the equalizer set to my liking. Bottom line: The JBL Tune 520 are a nice way to break into JBL headphones. They’re super lightweight, the battery life is tremendous, and if you like bass you’ll love these headphones. The ability to tailor the sound using JBL’s app (which I really like) is a big plus for headphones in this price range. You just better have a smaller head.

Very good with some flaws

Nice headphones. The battery has nice life but the charging cord is as long as my 2 middle fingers put together. Super short. Headphones would have to sit right by the plug so say goodbye to plugging in next to your night stand or some random outlet in your home unless you don't mind it hanging from the wall and resting on the floor. Also, I wish the earpieces were a bit bigger. I have small ears buy the cushion still sits on top of my ears instead of over or around them. So, after a while they start to hurt my ears. It was easy to connect to bluetooth.

Pass It On

I was gifted this by my daughter a year ago. My husband was very ill and it gave me the opportunity to listen to books, music and podcasts without disturbing him. I was so thrilled with the comfort and quality that I purchased this one recently for my son who is also impressed with your product..it’s excellent!

Compact with Excellent Sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Starting off, the packaging is perfectly done with a good presentation. It’s strait to the point while keeping wasteful extras to a minimum. The build quality, this is something that is super important with headphones intended to be used every day. After vigorously testing and using these over a week, there is no apparent weakness and these are very well made while maintaining a super light weight. The adjustments above the ear cups are the only gripe found with these but once set in a comfortable spot they seem to stay there. Now, the most important part, the sound quality. As expected from JBL, the sound signature is near perfect strait out of the box. There is adjustable EQ capabilities on the app which brings the headphones to a new level. Punchy lows and crispy highs, these keep your tunes fresh for hours on end. The extremely respectable battery life on these outshine any others. I forgot to even charge these for the majority of the time using them so far. To finalize this, I can say without a doubt, these are a smart purchase for any average listener or school goers who need an extra upgrade in sound. I wouldn’t recommend these for any heavy movement activities but they do stay in place pretty well.

Wonderful headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these headphones. I use them to listen to music while cleaning, listening to audiobooks before bed, and while completing my school work. They are comfortable and lightweight, easy to pair and the charge last a really long time.

Great headphones!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised by these headphones. As a more entry-level model in JBL's lineup, I wasn't expecting such an even sound profile. While I've never been a big fan of "on ear" style headphones these are surprisingly comfortable to wear, and still do a decent job of blocking out unwanted noise. The sound stage is nice for right-left separation, though it doesn't have the depth of higher-end models. The bass response is much better than expected as well, these headphones definitely outclass many earbuds in sound quality. Overall, these are a great bang for the buck. While they don't have many of the features of fancier models, (no active listening, auto-off, or voice assistant) they don't really need those things to be good headphones. Not to mention the battery life is stellar! i have charged these guys once after fully depleting the battery, but they last me days even when I accidentally leave them on over night.

JBL Tune 520BT

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Another great product from JBL. JBL Tune 520BT Headphones are very well designed and simple to use. Very well packaged as well as graphics on box. The moment I unboxed I realized these were solidly built and designed which I am accustomed to from JBL. Packaging was on point with a quick and easy setup manual. Headphones were charged and ready go right out of the box. Easy to setup and connect to blue tooth. The Tune 520BT sound was very good from a basic easy to use headphones. They seemed to block out surrounding noise. I would like to try on a flight and see how they perform. I definitely believe if your looking for well priced and easy to use headphones with good build and sound quality these are a no brainer. The only negative is I wish they came with a better storage bag or case for protection when not in use or putting them in a book bag. These would be great for kids and teens. I definitely will use as my go to headphones.

Beyond Basic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my JBL 520BT in a desktop PC/Win v11 environment, as its bluetooth sound device. This desktop is not my primary source for video or sound, but is my bread and butter device for a non professional use that needs localized user sound. The 520BT paired easily with my PC in a non app environment. The battery life is excellent. The sound quality is quite good for its price point. I typically use the device for total of two hours a day in half hour increments. For me the ear muffs are little on the small side, and muff pressure a little tight. Also would like to see on led indicator

Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound on these headphones are absolutely amazing! Such great quality! The amount of time the battery last for is great too! Charging doesn't take too long and is easy to do. Connecting to Bluetooth is simple. The only thing I could see as a downfall is some people may not like the size of the ear pieces. They are on the smaller size.
