It's a shame there's no support for high-quality wireless audio codecs such as LDACor aptX HD, nor is there wireless charging or Bluetooth multipoint (both of which the Sony WF-1000XM5 cater for). But we don't think this is the end of the world when you consider that these classy buds ooze such sophistication. Enabling the ANC with a tap of the left earbud immediately quietens the environment around me, though it does a better job at cancelling out high-pitched hums and hisses (like the sound of my fan) than it does with the tooting horns of cars outside. It’ll suffice for flights and long-distance travel, but don’t expect it to quieten an environment like a loud Central London coffee shop.

There are four primary reasons why one earbud may not be working. The first comes down to a pairing/connection issue, the second is a battery issue, and the third is a settings issue; primarily, the settings on the device you’re connecting to would need to be adjusted or reset. And the fourth is a hardware issue; this can be from damage or obstruction. They will ask for your JBL earbud model number, which will be on the case. You will be asked to explain what you’ve done. They may even have additional suggestions to try. The app is your go-to place when first setting up the headphones (or when you lose them thanks to their Find My Buds feature), as it includes not only a fit test to make sure you’ve got a perfect seal but also an ear canal test to optimise the ANC for every individual. Overall I think the sound is best suited to someone who likes a lot of bass, has no need for HD music streaming services like TiDAL and Spotify Premium. People that just want to go about their day and work out with their headphones without doing too much critical listening will love these. They are fun and punchy and do very little wrong. JBL Reflect Flow Review: Final thoughts and verdictAnd they're a brilliant option that more than justify their price tag. The buds are impressively small, and their lightweight design and excellent fit make them worth investigating if the standard AirPods don't sit well in your ears. Battery life is competitive at seven and a half hours. For ANC testing we venture outside to put those noise-cancelling algorithms through their paces and we also test the call quality of the earbuds at this stage too.

There are multiple ways in which a connection can end up becoming interrupted or result in an unsuccessful pairing. And one of those reasons stems from a previously connected device. Featuring JBL's signature sound quality, these headphones deliver a balanced audio experience with deep bass, clear midrange, and crisp highs. The Reflect Flow Pro also supports voice assistant integration, providing hands-free control and convenience. With an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, these headphones are suitable for outdoor activities and workouts. They can withstand immersion in water up to a depth of 1.5 meters for up to 30 minutes, ensuring their durability and reliability. Apple's H1 chip keeps the wireless Bluetooth connection nice and stable, and pairing is a doddle with either iOS or Android devices. And the Siri voice assistant comes on board for operating hands-free. Sony's newest wireless earbuds come in cheaper than the WF-1000XM5 that top this list but still manage to offer great sound quality, ANC and impressive levels of comfort for the money.This may sound like an ineffective solution but trust us you wouldn’t want to skip out on this step.

Since you are continuously in motion when playing sports, these earbuds are ergonomically designed to fit in your ears so that they do not fall out easily. Thanks to the long battery life, you can enjoy hours of playtime to compliment your active lifestyle, whether you’re in the gym or the pool.

We'll also start with a full charge and see how accurate battery life claims are and just how it's drained during day-to-day use. If you’re looking for a solid and robust sound, then the JBL Live Pro 2 TWS deliver that and more. They’re not shy in coming forward, especially in the lower frequencies where there is plenty of power on tap.
