JBLTUNE 205 - In-Ear Headphone with One-Button Remote/Mic - Black

If you are like me, you are sticking with wired headphones cause you don’t have the time or inclination to charge wireless ones (I wear my headphones the entire day, Spotify almost nonstop). Or, just because I’d probably lose one immediately to a vent in the sidewalk after venturing out.For being $20, these sound excellent. The music sounds robust and has nice depth, and they have better than average bass to them. They are the equal to my old Bose Soundsport headphones that I paid $70 for a few years ago, which stopped working in the one bud. They are a step or 2 higher than the Apple headphones they used to include with their iPod or iPhones, but they fit the same comfortable and ergonomic way that they used to without falling out of the ear. I like this style because I find the ones that require you to actually insert a rubber or foam covering into the ear canal to be uncomfortable and make my ears pop.If you listen to music on headphones, and want something a step above the Amazon Basics brand (or all those Apple headphone replicas or the cheap $10 Panasonic/Sony buds) I’d gladly pay $20 for this pair again. Just remember to get an adaptor so you can use these to listen on your phones! I’ll be bookmarking these, because if they go on sale I’ll grab a backup pair for my overnight bag.

THESE ARE THE BEST FITTING AND BEST SOUNDING, EVEN AT "LOW" VOLUME LEVELS, WHICH IS THE BEST WAY TO LISTEN WITH HEADSETS.

Bought these because of the brand name and needed some cheap earbuds for work to take calls with. Didn't want wireless because I'm on calls for several hours of the day and didn't want to worry about charging. Has a nice long cable so I don't have to hunch over my laptop and can sit comfortably. Audio quality sounds good for calls and music and my coworkers hear me well through the mic.Only negative is that the earbud seams are not entirely flush and scratch a little sometimes. As cheap as they are I will probably sand them down a little and be just fine. Also I'm in a pretty quiet work setting but when I'm home I can hear noises around me decently since these just sit in the ear instead of the foam tip style earbuds that help isolate you.

These are great for this price. If you want wireless, or you're comparing these to much more expensive versions than that's an unfair comparison. For wired earbuds, I love these. You get great sound quality for under $20. Plenty of bass but not overpowering unless you're listening to bass heavy music.If you're comparing this style, hard plastic that sits in the outer ear vs the silicone style that is pushed into the ear canal (like the JBL Tune 210). They both sound great, with plenty of bass, it's just a preference on the comfort.This one, JBL Tune 205, hard plastic, is more comfortable for longer periods, stays in place, but doesn't have as much noise isolation.The JBL Tune 210, silicone, isn't as comfortable for me, slips out more often, but has better noise isolation and a tiny bit louder since the sound is pushed closer to your ear drum, though the others are plenty loud.Your comfort is the biggest factor since the earpiece fitting correctly makes a big difference in the sound. I much prefer these (Tune 205, hard plastic). The mic sounds good on both. Suitable for calls and work but not high quality you would need for a podcast, etc.

Common denominators among the reviews were it's cheap, good sound quality for the price and the bass was good.It is cheap. It is good "for the price," but the bass is not good. It's slightly better than standard wired headphones (maybe 10%), but does so by sacrificing the high end (also 10%). It has this weird, hard plastic feeling in your ears, with a rubbery wire that will probably not last too long compared to plastic lined wires.I'd say the only reason to get these is if you like a darker color headphone, if you don't like Apple EarPods, and you don't like earbuds.

While I only use it for day-to-day video watching and the like, nothing fancy, I can say that the sound quality is great for the price. The earbuds are especially comfy for someone who prefers the Apple-esque shape. I like the look of the wires, the sleek button mic, and the extra reinforcement/angle where you plug it in — certainly makes it sturdier. But most importantly I tossed it in the washing machine for a cycle by accident and it still works like new, so count me as a happy customer!

I liked them a lot. Great quality sound. rugged. Firm rubber and thin cord. dont regret the buy.

I was excited to try these ear buds once they arrived. They offer the design that comfortably stays in my ear without bothering me like other earbuds would. I tried them on testing the audio quality which seemed nice. Though while using button that pause/plays, skips, and rewinds the left earbud stopped releasing all sound. I was really excited to use them, but they couldn’t last me ten minutes.
