None of the expensive ones are as good as this one.Quality:Sounds quality is amazing with 3 presets Comfort:Ear piece fits comfortably Value for money:Great priceDesign:The wires are designed to be tangle free and the ear plugs are designed to fit properly.Weight:Lightweight.

I’m not an audiophile but I am a musician and I love JBL. This is my third pair of JBL headphones. The first pair I lost, I still have the second pair but since I got an iPhone 16 and got these because of the new input.

Quick SummaryThe JBL Tune 310C earbuds are a great value for those seeking affordable, plug-and-play wired headphones. They deliver solid sound quality with a bass-heavy profile, work seamlessly across multiple devices, and handle high-resolution audio well on platforms like Tidal and Apple Music. The controls, including playback and volume, work well, but phone calls were not tested. However, they aren't ideal for running or intense workouts due to noticeable cable noise and limited cable length. For casual listening and stationary workouts, they perform well for the price.JBL Tune 310C Review: In lengthThe JBL Tune 310C earbuds, in my opinion, are a great value option for anyone looking for simple, plug-and-play wired headphones. I tested them with four devices: a Pixel 6a, Samsung A25, Pixel 9, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. On all of these devices, the headphones worked flawlessly—no extra apps, configurations, or tweaks required. I just plugged them in, pressed play, and got exactly what I expected out of them.Sound QualityThe sound quality is solid for the price especially on sale, but I do have a few gripes. Out of the box, these earbuds are very bass-heavy. While this is fine for apps with adjustable equalizers it becomes an issue for standard Android and iOS users using self libraries, where there are no built-in sound configuration options.For reference, I tested with Tidal, Spotify, and Apple Music. On Tidal and Apple Music, I was able to achieve 24-bit 192kHz playback, which really showcased the earbuds' capabilities when listening to high-quality tracks, like John Williams' compositions. Unfortunately, Spotify doesn’t support this quality, so the earbuds feel a bit wasted there compared to Bluetooth alternatives.Controls and PerformanceThe inline controls on the earbuds worked well for playback and volume adjustments during my testing. I didn’t test phone call functionality, so I can’t comment on call quality, but everything else performed as expected.There are a few trade-offs when compared to Bluetooth earbuds. The cable transfer noise is noticeable when the wire bounces around. While it’s not deal-breaking, it does make these earbuds unsuitable for running or high-intensity calisthenics. However, if you’re weightlifting or in more stationary positions where the cable isn’t moving too much, you’ll get by just fine.One issue I ran into was the cable length. I wish it were about 6 inches longer. While using an arm band helped, when I kept my phone in my gym shorts pocket, the earbuds got yanked out of my ears more often than I’d like. It’s not a huge issue, but it’s worth noting.Durability and Sweat ResistanceI can’t speak to the long-term durability of these earbuds just yet, but I did test them during a 3-hour workout session, and they held up without any issues. I didn’t notice any immediate problems related to sweat resistance.Final ThoughtsFor the price and sound quality, the JBL Tune 310C earbuds are an easy buy if you want something that just works and sounds great and won't break the bank and modern one cable solution. While the heavy bass and cable noise might not make them perfect for everyone, they are excellent for casual listening, hold up okay not great but enough for flights or stationary workouts. If you don’t need or want or can't afford the wireless convenience of Bluetooth earbuds, these offer a lot of value for their price.

You know, these have a microphone for making phone calls or live video on a phone or PC, and for that purpose, they are probably very decent. But for music, ugh. Very Trebly. I am usually very satisfied with everything I get from JBL And for $24, perhaps I got what I paid for. But these are almost unlistenable. These headphones are where bass goes to die. Almost no bass at all - No bass guitar. No bass drum. Thin voices. The +/- volume buttons are tiny to the extreme. And they are situated just 5" below your ear - kind of hard to find. If price is first goal, they are probably worth $24. But if sound (And they are trading on the JBL name) is job one, pass them by. Last, they aren't very efficient. Had to turn my source way up. Where my Sony over-the-ear phones sound as loud at 2/3's less volume. Cheaply priced and sound like it.

I'm rarely driven to write a review, but after an hour or so using these headphones, they seem to be truly a standout product. Most USB-C headphones that I've owned are extremely thin and have no bass response. I actually assumed that it was a flaw of USB-C vs 1/8 in jacks. Maybe it is, but these headphones certainly do their job and make audio sound just as full as it would on any regular pair of headphones. I don't know how long this is going to last, but I'm going to enjoy it while it does.

great headphones, good sound, they fit perfectly in my ears and don't fall out. surprisingly, the cable doesn't even get tangled much in my purse) I'm very pleased with my purchase

The sound is okay. Anytime I touch the wire or something brushes the wire I can hear it through the headphones. It sounds like I am on the inside of a boat and water is sloshing against it. Don’t buy th see if this could bother your listening experience. However they do not tangle and have decent sound when the wire is not touched.

I got tired of using 3.5m to USB-C adapters and wanted a good USB-C headphone set and hoped this was the one. The fit, the sound quality, the price were all good. However, after going through 3 pairs, I'm done with them.First pair the right earbud stopped producing sound. I went through the refund process with JBL and it was rather smooth and got the second pair for no extra cost. The second pair however the right earbud came completely detached this was my fault for pulling too hard but I've never had this happen to any other set. So I didn't do the warranty and bought the third pair. Then after a few months... the right earbud went out, no sound. I could probably do the warranty on this one but I'm done with it.I wear the wires up through my shirt and do a lot of walks but that's it. I'm not kayaking or mounting climbing with these things. There's something wrong design wise with the right earbud. It might be a good choice if you are using them only at your desk or something.
