@@arinkarwan5888 I main the new Sony inzone bubs/ Sony wf-g700 but they have 5 bad things about it 1. It uses bluetooth le audio so what that means is that for mobile only android 13 or above are able to use them on Bluetooth mode so no iPhone can use them on Bluetooth mode 2. No wireless charging 3.

I saw another review recording the microphone but it sounded significantly better than what he showed. I'm wondering if he was recording from his phone and not from a computer. I'm guessing the extra bandwidth using the 2.4 GHz dongle would allowed for less compression and better quality.
Very appreciated, especially the recording section using its mic. and like your commentary and English which is super easy to hear-understand to foreigners who don't speak English well as me. Thanks!!!
Appreciate the review, but some type of latency coverage over 2.4 and/or BT would have been nice, since its whole identity is around gaming. I understand 2.4ghz connections are generally no/low latency, but still possible for it to not be the case here.

Been searching for the best gaming earbuds for my steam deck. But non of the youtubers really illustrate and test the latency. Let me teach you how you can show it to us. Set the earbuds to maximum volume and put your mic beside or near to it. Play some fps game. Maybe pubg mobile or cod on your pc. And start firing the gun. Then we'll be the judge if it is really a low latency gaming earbuds.
thank you for the informative video. how is the ANC performance against the best on the market? when the ANC is on, does it affect the music/sound quality?
CEONTHEMAKING!!! More like LEGENDNTHEMAKING you doin it bro I got mad love and respect for your channel. You're amongst my go-to tech TH-camrs before I buy anything. I recently bought the JBL reflect mini's after watching your review 🔥
I'm looking into earbuds with that are able to play two audio at the same time and I saw an article on these earbuds that says, "they can actually connect to the dongle and to a Bluetooth device at the same time, playing audio from both together." But you mention that you can't. Can you clarify this matter?
Dual source only works for phone calls (maybe also from WA/DC etc. not tested yet), so you can't hear the PC game sounds + spotify from your phone for example. On the phone bluetooth audio settings only "calls" can be selected not "audio".
I bought these recently and I'm very satisfied. For a 100 bucks they do the job with real low latency, solid sound and nice fit. Not perfect though, strange feeling with ambient mode, not great like with more expensive buds, noise canceling is solid, and connectivity also not great.. But for the price very good investment. Hope they'll last more they 2 years.
Thanks for the review. And if I have jbl reflect flow pro, does it make sense to change to a new one?First of all, I'm interested in sound quality, bass saturation compared to jbl reflect flow pro.
Thx for the review, is it possible to use only one earbud for talking with friends during games on the PS5 ? Talk sound coming from one Earbud (even left or right) and gaming sound coming from the TV. Thx in advance,
@@CEONTHEMAKING thx for the answer, It is not possible to just put one earbud on the sofa and use the other ? Even if the one on the sofa is still working. Would it be possible with the Jbl Quantum 50 ?
Regarding the 2.4Ghz dongle latency; while it is quite good for a wireless solution, I still notice a bit of latency compared to wired earbuds. I play osu! (a rhythm game) which requires very low latency audio to play well. While testing these JBLs, I found that there is a noticeable amount of latency compared to my wired earbuds from before. It's slight, but noticeable if you really compare them to something else that's wired. I've tried disabling sound enhancements and tuning the driver settings inside/outside of JBL's own software but nothing has really reduced the latency on these buds. I think the latency is low enough for casual games, but anything that seriously requires low latency audio will not be good.
@@leoliu1281 The latency is practically indistinguishable for FPS games. I play Valorant and cannot notice any delay in the audio. I believe the delay will only bother people who are playing rhythm games.
Extremely helpful video. I have a set of JBLs now and im seriously considering trading them for these, my current JBLs are slaved to the right earpiece, meaning i can't use the left one by itself for calls or music. Do you know if the Quantums are the same?
Nice thorough review but something you might want to add. No idea if this is something other people think about, but part of why I'm getting mine is if it's better than the mic I have for speech to text. If it works for that and the 3d sound is okay, I can literally get rid of three gadgets.
You mentioned that it has dual connections, but can they be simultaneous? Can I have them connected to my PS5 over 2.4ghz while being on a Discord voice channel on my phone for comms?
On the box it says 8hours and you can get two full charges out of the case before everything is dead however some reviews ive seen have said the battery is quite poor so idk 🤷♂️
If u want some good cheap gaming TWS earbuds I recommend the Tozo G1 ($ 20-$30) or the Soundpeats CyberGear ($50). They are bluetooth and do not require a dongle. It works with the Nintendo switch, cellphones, and gaming PC. Both have a gaming mode and there is zero audio latency (45ms). Both last about 5 hours on gaming mode.
Thanks so much. Are you testing microphone via Bluetooth? How does it perform with 2.4ghz dongle? And is there sound quality drop like Bluetooth handsfree mode?
@@CEONTHEMAKING Thanks. And what I mean for sound quality also means the output sound quality. As you may know, music quality will drop when you are talking in Bluetooth. In windows pc, Bluetooth won't give you stereo when using microphone. Mine will also come this Wednesday.
Very usefull video as always, i am looking on buying these, but for music, lots of erabuds with the plastic tips dont fit well in my ears, what is your opinion about them, are there any good, and when moving your head, do they also stay in place? Thank you, and keep up this work.
@@Bsksun it's been 6 months now, I use them with my laptop (I am a call center agent) and also with my phone. batteries couldn't hold it the whole day but recharging completes very quick. switching between laptop (dongle) and phone (bluetooth) also works excellent. thanks again for the review which lead me to buy...
@@CEONTHEMAKING this is dependent if you are using a phone or pc laptop. if you connect bluetooth for PC gaming, the audio will change to mono since one channel channel is reserved for sound (mono) while the other is for voice mic.
I have a question: it's clear that, when using the 2.4ghz connection, I can answer to a mobile call on bluetooth. Could I answer to a call coming from an app too (Discord/Whatsapp/...)? Will I be notified in the ears (will I hear a ringtone through the earbuds)? And again, if I get tired of gaming sounds, can i simply start Spotify and go on playing while listening to my music?
WhatsApp at least is working, so i guess calls on phone from discord, teams etc. will also work. Also it works with different parallel PC sounds, for example game audio + spotify + teamspeak/discord. But it won't work for PC game sounds + spotify from phone for example.
Anyone who already have it, how is the felling when you are speaking ? I am intending to use it for teams meeting and the in ears that i have kinda gives a strange sensation when I am speaking and my jaw is moving. Thanks
I just ordered these I didn't know if to get inzone buds or these but i ended up ordering these I hope i got the right ones i just want high bass good sound
I NEED HELP DECIDING!!! Okay so I'll spend around 100 bucks give or take a little... want the biggest bang or leap for the buck though... MOST IMPORTANT to me is phone call clarity both ways and connectivity. Here's a few I'm considering but I'm open. Soundcore by Anker Life P3, JBL Live Free 2 and the Liberty 3 Pro... MAYBE there's a budget one that meets my needs... the Life P3 is cheaper(under 80) than the others but I'll spend a little more for a leap. Don't want to spend more if my needs can be met for less. ANY advice from ANYONE would be greatly appreciated... thanks!!!
Does the JBL Headphones app let you program the earbud's touch controls for volume? For example, tap left earbud to lower volume, tap right earbud to raise volume. The PS5 is terrible for volume control. You have to click through so many menus to get to the volume. It'd be nice if you could quickly tap the left earbud and it sends a command to the PS5 to lower volume or something similar. On full size headphones (steelseries arctic 7P) it's not an issue because they tend to have a native volume control built directly into the ear cup, in the form of a volume dial. That natively attenuates the drivers. I know that the JBL Quantum TWS has no such attenuator, but maybe it can send a signal to the source to lower volume, similar to how double tapping the AirPods would have the AirPods send a signal to the iPhone to change tracks.
@@CEONTHEMAKING Ah that's unfortunate. It's likely because the PS5 operating system has no built-in function like mobile devices and it doesn't know what to do with a volume change signal from headphones like that. Thanks for testing that out for me!
@@The_Supreme_Savage Probably not.. I know the Steel series Nova pro X, has a separate usb-c connector for the xbox due to the way the microsoft made it limited.
