Review on JBL Tune 510BT Wireless Headphones, pink by Dorota Mackiewicz ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A little bit not what I expected, generally fine.

I have these jbl tune 510bt and an Edifier W800BT Plus (Black) that was a gift to my son. So, I connected the two devices through bluetooth to my phone and then to the kid's phone to see how they differed. Ugh, what else can I say. To someone who has never experienced any other headphones, I would say that these are, on the whole, rather decent. But if I had to pay 4500 out of my own pocket for them instead, I would be quite disappointed because they are essentially identical to Edifiers (except for their smaller size), and Edifiers are cheaper by 1000. The fact that they truly push your ears is really unpleasant, and I have stated all the other drawbacks compared to the Edifires above, including the fact that the charging cable is located not from below but from above, and the lack of a jack connector and an AptX codec. Indeed, I suppose this is a characteristic of all big headphones; in order to effectively muffle outside noise, they must compress the auricle with as much narcotic as possible. The comfort of the edifier is unmatched, yet it would be lovely if this were all there was to it. I don't know how they did it, but they did it. I don't know, maybe it's a trait of my head, but in theory, you only feel it when you take them off and put on an edifire. Next, let's talk about the audio. Surprisingly, the headphones that cost three times as much sound duller and less expressive than the ones I was using. This isn't just a problem with the bass, which can be adjusted with an equalizer, but with the entire audio experience. This is most audibly experienced when classical orchestras play contemporary works like those based on the Hobbit or Pirates of the Caribbean. With Edifiers, you may shut your eyes and imagine yourself at the concert hall in front of the artists; with JBL, you can imagine yourself relaxing on the couch with headphones in front of the phone. If they were to cost around 800 edifires, I'd give them a 4, while at around 2500, they'd be a safe bet for a strong 5. Thus, I have already made up my mind to switch to Edif in three years.

Pros
  • Usb Type-C charging. Easily collapsible Long-lasting charge retention Quick charging, and the AAC audio format Typical Headset Performance in Quiet Environments
Cons
  • Lack of a 3.5mm jack The lack of even the AptX codec, let alone AptX HD, is quite disappointing. Tense compression around the ears Poor bass and distorted visuals. Location of the power source is inconvenient. Instead of 650 mAh, the battery is just 450 mAh. In the silence of the right ear, a ticking sound can be heard. YouTube videos stutter and freeze up (there was only once, but not the fact that it will not happen again) High cost relative to claimed qualities and consumer name brand
