[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Opening the JBL live flex, you'll notice everything I neatly an smartly packaged. JBL has always been great with choosing great materials for packing of their products. The case feels good in hand. Good weight and a sense of quality. It's not gonna fall apart or snap apart. It feels of quality. Included is a orange usbA to usb C for charging. I use the wireless charging capabilities for convenience and am happy that was included. Battery life I admirable an always gets me through a extended gym session. Touch controls are handy and customizable inside the jbl headphone app. The app is easy to navigate, everything is laid out clearly and easy to understand and manipulate. Sound isolation with this type of headphone can be tricky depending on ear size an fit of headphone inside ear. These sit inside ears but not inside ear canal. For what they are, they seal admirably and provide more than expected noise cancellation. Ambient aware works well when when you need to hear around you or have a conversation. Sound is punchy and vibrant. If you like the Jbl signature sound, you will like these. I would place these headphones in a casual listening situation. Easy in, easy out. Taking them out walking, work well. Light gym duty works well. But they do dislodge easy when bouncing around. You will find yourself pushing an re-positioning them if you jog or jostle around. They are very comfortable to wear however and are a joy to listen to. I listen to EDM and bouncier music an these headphones suit that style well. They paired easily out of the box and connect fast to my google pixel 7. Set up correctly an they also work with hands free assistant which is very nice. These are very nice for the price and have loved using them in my day to day, whether it's gym use or wandering around the store in my own bubble.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Live Flex earbuds are gel-free earbuds promoted as all-day headphones: designed to be as useful in the office on meetings as on the train listening to music. If earbuds with no gels don't cause you discomfort, then these might be for you. Music: 9 of 10 For not having gels to fill my ears, I was really expecting these earbuds to have poor sound. When I saw that these don't have gels, I prepared my 'Music' rating to be 5 or 6...Every other pair I've tried without gels sound flat. I have to say, for not having gels, these sound really, really good..amazing even. Once I tuned them with the equalizer, they were really close to my old favorite earbuds. They are very crisp and clean.. I can hear things in music tracks I've never noticed before. While not quite as punchy as I'm used to, there actually is a nice bass curve, which is pretty amazing with no gels. My rating creeped higher and higher the longer I listened... honestly they could be 10 out of 10, but my personal taste is to have just a little bit more oomph on the low end. Calls/meetings: 10 of 10 JBL tells me that these have 6 microphones. I used them for work meetings, and actually called myself to have a listen. They sound good, and I was able to have conversations in noisy and windy environments with no issues. These work, they last a long time, and the controls do what I need. Podcast / Audiobook: 10 of 10 For all the reasons described above in Music and Calls, these buds are even more perfect for spoken word audio. They sounded perfectly balanced and super crisp and clear. Clarity 10 of 10 Given that these are designed to be used as "all day" earbuds, for calls, conferences, music, and everything else, I felt like clarity deserved it's own ranking here. These definitely get full points. As mentioned above, music and spoken word was crystal clear. Same for conference calls. Comfort: 5 of 10 Without different sized gels, everyone's experience with these will be different. I generally have pretty big earholes, and these fit well: not too snug, but not so loose that they fall out or have poor sound. I will say, for non-gel earbuds, they are comfortable, but even still, after about 4 hours, I had a bit of an ear ache. One note: these earbuds sit fairly flat against my ear, which can be a nice feature if wanting to wear these under, say a helmet, sound protection, or anything covering one's ears. I could see these earbuds becoming my go to pair under my helmet for motorcycle riding. Controls/Software: 9 of 10 Controls are standard with the expected ambient controls, pause, hangup, mute, skip, rewind, etc. They are touch controls, rather than a tactile push... sometimes the touch controls can be a bit finnicky, but these are nice and responsive. The Person-fi with hearing test is nice, but I had to modify the resulting EQ as the resulting sound was a bit tinny. The EQ is nice, there are sound presets, or you can create a very basic waveform with just a couple points. You can also get really specific and dial in your sound with 10 adjustable frequencies. There are nice options in the software like balance, max volume, find my buds, auto play/pause, and some power saving options. Pairing and connecting was completely intuitive: quick and easy. The Bluetooth 5.3 connection never faltered once. One feature new to me here is that the case can be wirelessly charged. I thought this was silly at first, but the more I use it, the more I appreciate it. Noise cancelling: 6 of 10 JBL has their noise cancelling tech down, and these earbuds try, but I think without the gels, there is just too much ambient sound that can seep in. Battery: 8 of 10 Rated 8 hours plus 32 hours in case. Search the internet for longest lasting earbuds, and you see 10 to 12 hours.. so these are close with 8 hours plus the case. A full workday (or a full night's sleep) is enough for me.. though I removed an additional point as I think it's closer to 6 hours + 24 hours with noise cancelling on. TL;DR: I really do recommend these, though it will depend on the fit in your ears! Having no gels is a pro or con depending on your preference. If you are in the 'no gel' camp, get these! For me, the lack of gels means a (very slightly) less full sound, less noise cancelling, and less comfort.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The quality of these airbuds are great! They were easy to set up and very simple to control through the app. I used these while I work. The only issue I had was keeping the airbids in my ear. The ears are a little smaller than the average person's so I had to keep pushing them in my ears so I don't lost them. I use them while shopping and when working from home. I would recommend these.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] JBL Live Flex As the years go by the technology improves within the audio field. Compared to what was available say five or six years ago the JBL Live Flex earbuds are no exception. Undeniable improvements over time. And included the noise canceling abilities. Side-note: Even the packaging has improved. OK, out of the box, charge the unit(s). Insert into ears, get the Bluetooth connected and stream music from my cell phone. Hmmm, only so-so in sound. Generally flat and no life. Decent sound, but… Get into the JBL app and the world of sound changes dramatically. Several pre-set equalization available. Personally I preferred the Jazz variation. Then the spatial sound enhancement. Yes it is worth listening, but does not work well with all types of music. An interesting section was sealing earbuds within the ear. Give the program a chance, may be surprised. Logic dictates a lot of R&D went into developing the shape to seal well in the average ear. My ears are not within those parameters. That being said, the units became uncomfortable after an hour or two. All day listening not for me, yet for short term these are my go-to earbuds. I do like the sound produced. On to noise canceling. Recently took a flight on a Boeing 737 and sitting toward the rear. Taxi to the runway was no issue. However the takeoff the JBL's couldn't handle the loud input from the engines. A weird static and crackling. After the initial climb, worked great. And the screaming child three seats in front of me. Well I was in peace. Conversations via phone were easy. Easy to understand both female and male. “nuff said. Now for a suggestion. How about adding some color to the case. On my desk are four sets JBL earbuds, so which one is which? Overall I do appreciate these earbuds. They sound great but wondering where the JBL signature sound has gone. The usual mild warmth is absent. If I was to rate the earbuds, I would give a 4.4 due to ear fitment and the reduced JBL sound.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having never experienced earbuds before, I was eager for the opportunity. Often seeing people using them I was always curious about the sound quality and comfort. Upon getting them, everything seemed pretty much straight forward, from charging to downloading the app. During the setup, I appreciated the concept of an in the ear hearing test in order to calibrate the multiple frequency listening levels. This truly customizes the device to the user's specific hearing thresholds. When it came to putting them on, they felt like they could easily fall out. I'm sure this is likely to insure comfort, which they are. But I would be mindful while wearing them. When it comes to sound quality I was pleasantly surprised, especially considering the size of the device. Clarity is however what you would expect from this brand, "outstanding". The bass response isn't quite as much as I imagined, but I'm sure I will be able to increase it once I navigate thru the fairly expansive software app. But they simply sound terrific right from the start. I received a phone call while listening to music and was instantly able to answer the call with speed and ease. I told the caller that I had taken the call thru earbuds and how did I sound. They said that they couldn't tell any difference from usual. However, I was hearing them thru both ears hands free. This I enjoyed! My overall opinion is a very positive one. While I'm sure they are capable of far more versatility and functionality as the app seems to be quite intricate but not complicated. With more time to spend learning and auditioning them I'm sure I'll will like them even more.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] JBL stepped up their game with these earbuds. The sound quality is exceptional, with deep bass and clear treble. I've listened to everything from hip-hop to classical music, and the Live Flex has handled it all with ease. The audio is well-balanced and immersive, making it perfect for workouts, or just relaxing. The active noise canceling is very useful when doing workouts, it truly blocks out the world around you and allows you to really concentrate on what you are doing, letting you really immerse yourself in a workout or just jamming out to music. Battery life on these beat out any earbuds I've had in the past, it's nice to know that I won't have to really worry about them cutting out on me. The fit to the ear could use some work, and requires a little adjusting, that would be the only negative I would have about the Live Flex. I do wish they were a little more forming to the ear canal. Overall though the JBL Live Flex earbuds are an excellent choice if you're looking for high quality, amazing sound, long battery life, and durable design, these are the earbuds you want!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product!! I use it for music and phone calls, I have had it several weeks and still has a good charge, battery life is Excellent!! I love JBL products!! I would recommend these to a Friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall a good pair of headphones. The sound quality is nice. One dislike for me was the comfort level over prolonged use, after the 45 minute mark they did hurt my ears a little on my long walks/runs. Super easy to connect and use with the JBL app to change settings to my perfect presence.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I spend several days with the JBL Live Flex perfect fit and I must say I am really happy with them. I wore them in the house and also spending time outdoors and throughout my daily travels. I didn't get tired of wearing them and really forgot about them after a while. I downloaded the JBL app which opened up a bunch of customizations and controls. You can customize the adaptive noise canceling and it does make a difference. I also enjoyed adjusting the "personi-fi" since my hearing isn't the best out there. There is also an equalizer in the app and spatial sound selections. I've probably barely scratched the surface of what these can do and they have definitely moved to the top as my go-to headphones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who appreciates quality audio gear, I recently tried the JBL Live Flex earphones, and here's my detailed breakdown: Sound Quality & Features The sound quality is outstanding, with rich, deep bass that enhances any genre of music. Whether you're a fan of EDM, classical, or podcasts, the clarity and balance of these earphones make every listening session enjoyable. Noise cancellation is phenomenal—I was immersed in my music with zero distractions, even in busy environments. Equally impressive is the ambient mode, which lets you toggle back to reality with just one tap, providing crystal-clear sound from your surroundings without needing to remove the earphones. It's a thoughtful feature that works seamlessly. Battery Life & Design The 32-hour battery life is a major win, especially for long days or travel. I've used them for hours on end without worrying about running out of charge. The charging case is a standout feature—it's compact, stylish, and has a luxurious feel. It's sleek enough to slip into a pocket, and its design adds a premium touch to the overall package. Comfort & Fit While the earphones excel in sound quality and features, the fit is where they fall short for me. The grip isn't as firm as I'd like, and they tend to slip out of my ears, especially when I'm walking or moving around. This makes me hesitant to use them outdoors or during workouts. They stay okay when I'm sitting still, but for more active scenarios, they don't inspire much confidence. Final Thoughts JBL Live Flex earphones are a near-perfect choice for those who prioritize sound quality, noise cancellation, and innovative features like ambient mode. The bass and audio performance are truly professional-grade, and the battery life ensures they'll keep up with your day. However, the lack of a secure fit is a drawback if you're someone who plans to use these for workouts or on the go. If JBL improves the fit, these could easily be my go-to earphones for all situations. For now, they're best suited for stationary use or lighter activities, where their excellent sound capabilities can truly shine.
