JBL TUNE 500
The 32mm drivers deliver JBL's Pure Bass sound signature, emphasizing deep low-end in a lightweight 150g foldable frame. The one-button microphone provides convenient control for music, calls, and voice assistants, while the frog-skin PU leather ear cushions add comfort for extended wear. These wired on-ear headphones are best for budget-conscious listeners who prioritize bass-heavy music playback over call quality.
