    Bought the Tune Flex yesterday. $79.99. Plan to use the for working out and jogging. Good fit, good sound, fast charging. So far so good.

    i bought the jbl tune flex like 6 - 7 months ago, and i got the issue with the left earbud, it doesnt charge anymore, like i cant properly connect to the pins in the case, i cleaned, try other things and nothing, it doesnt work. (im impressed that i read a lot of comments and posts about issues with the jbl earbuds, and all got the same issue with the left earbud, not the rigth). Really dissapointed because im huge fan of JBL for the JBL GO products. The tune flex has a very good sound quality, but the issue with the charge is unnaceptable.

      i got the same problem in mine. Having owned many bluetooth headphones i think its more of an overall issues with bluetooth messing up and not accepting a charge.
      Taking the bud in and out like 100 times weirdly got mine to work again.

    Love these because they sound great without going very deep into your ear.
    I'm on my 3rd pair in half a year because after a month or two they stop connecting to the pins in the case and they don't charge anymore. This has been the case for all of my pairs.
    Going back for warranty again again again tomorrow!

  • @CsabaV
    @CsabaV 6 місяців тому +5

    I have them, 1 pair has already been replaced because the left side went almost silent, bass went away from both as well. The new pair have the same problem, so I'll just send it back for another replacement. Getting a bit disappointed, because the shape of the eartips are good for me. Doesn't hurt, neither pops out often from my ears.

    Tbh for 50$ I didn’t even expect them to have noise cancellation, so I know it’s not so great I have my AirPod pro for that but on the go you can’t go wrong, one gripe they do hurt a but with the silicon tip even the smallest one.
    Update I ended up returning them because they were way to painful for my ears and not designed properly they seem to be too big where the part that goes into the ear. I got the AirPods Pro 2 instead I know this is not a comparison, since I basically lost the original ones I had.

  • @brostelio
    @brostelio 7 місяців тому +16

    Had them for a year. Very disappointing. I think they are capable (with equalisation) of producing pretty good sound with clear bass, but their fit is pretty bad and the charging case is atrocious. More often than not, they don't turn off when placed in the case. When I got them, they were pretty expensive and I accordingly find their shortcomings unacceptable. It's not the brand that it once was....

    Maybe I just got lucky and got a pair with a better battery, I've used my pair for the last 9 months at least 5 days a week 8 hours straight at work and rarely have my battery die on me. Usually I get 8.5-9 hours before the low battery warning and about 30 minutes of use after the first warning before they power off.

      @@mountinman1898 noise cancelling is mid on these, they aren't fully in ear so it's difficult to get a great seal. It's decent but I just upgraded to the Live Pro 2, the next step up in JBLs line of products, and the noise cancelling is night and day to me. If noise cancelling is super important to you, I'd consider stretching the budget a bit to get the Live Pro 2s. If you're dead set at the Tune Flex price point, I don't think you'll be disappointed though.
