Review on JBL Tune 215 - Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds with Mic/Remote and Flat Cable - White - Enhanced Audio Experience! by Koichiro Ogata ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It works, but I don't think I'll be buying it again.

I will compare with the 205 model - they are worse in sound (including due to a decrease in resistance from 32 ohms to 20 ohms). what has been improved is the battery life and made a type c connector for which a plus. of the minuses in my opinion - that they did not improve the sound and ergonomics, did not improve the microphone (everything also gurgles and disappears, although everything is ok on other headphones). my recommendation is not to take it for music and as a headset (bass lovers will not have enough low frequencies), for everything else you can (watch videos, games, etc.). In any case, check when buying, including whether they fit your ears in size. many write that they are uncomfortable. 205 you can look for more, they will be cheaper and more convenient. and the sound is a little better (though the battery is 6 hours)

Pros
  • - battery life up to 16 hours - charging from type-c and not micro - bluetooth 5.0
Cons
  • - I didn’t like the sound for music (even worse than in the 205 model - a lot of highs, few lows) - poor microphone for calls, as in 205 models, the microphone has not been improved - SBC connection protocol (JBL does not install aptx even in expensive headphones) - 20 ohm instead of 32 (longer operating time but lower quality) - raw firmware from the factory, you need to ate the firmware through the application, - unsuccessful attachment of the headphones to each other on the neck (why not to put magnets is not clear, maybe they interfere, I don’t know) - a large size, in my opinion they are inferior to the 205th in ergonomics, there are no ear pads of different sizes, as, for example, in some Samsung or Huawei headphones. JBL apparently thinks everyone has the same ears; - there is no moisture protection of the headphone case, where are the buttons and where is the battery. will not last long in humid environments. for sports, it is better to take models with moisture protection or tws without wires and with a battery built into the earpiece itself; - if you take it without discounts, then the price is high. without discounts 2190 in the store.

Previously, there were headphones 205 models. The sound is the same, regarding the price and the fact that they are still wireless, they sound quite decent. 215s already look more reliable, hold a charge longer. Vacuum earbuds constantly hurt my ears, and these earbuds are indispensable for me. The call sound is excellent, the microphone is good.
