Jbl E65BTNC Bluetooth Over-Ear, Noise-Canceling Headphones (Matte Black)

The JBL E65BTNC headphones deliver bass-forward Bluetooth audio with decent noise cancellation for the price.

• +

  Powerful audio performance with deep bass response, bright highs. Decent noise cancellation (when music is off). Can be used in wired mode passively or with active noise cancellation.

• -

  Noise cancellation affects audio performance. No carrying pouch or case.

The JBL E65BTNC are basically the upgraded version of the JBL E55BT [see on Amazon] , just adding noise cancellation. The casing and design are pretty much the same. That’s not a bad thing, it’s just that these aren’t a completely different set of a headphones.

  Affordable, Pretty good audio quality, Fairly comfortable, Foldable design, Solid battery life

  Fatigue ears over time since they aren’t entirely over-ear, Noise cancellation sometimes has hiss sound, Don’t get as loud as you’d expect, Just average Bluetooth range and stability, Button size and placement for volume, pause/play, etc. is annoying

JBL’s E65BTNC headphones fall short in a couple of physical ways. The petite controls clustered close together on the right earpiece are difficult to locate and operate solely by touch.

I’ve been on a JBL kick lately. I love to recommend their E Series headphones for those who love a thick bass, but want to avoid the bulkiness of other headphones. That is why I was excited to hear about JBL’s release of the newest member of the E Series family, the E65BTNC.

I’ve had a handful of folks ask me to recommend relatively cheap Bluetooth headphones that aren’t too bulky. My go-to answer for them has always been something from the JBL E Series. The E45BT and E55BT have been my favorite to share for the stylish, utiliarian commuter.

I just bought these headphones two days ago after extensive research for the perfect headphones. When I bought these they were well presented and as well very easy to setup. So far I can say the active noise cancelling does well but be aware that they don’t block out all noise but low rumble sounds...

Found these headphone to fit comfortably while working out in the gym. Might not work well while running. Sound is good and not fatiguing.

  Avid runner might find them a little too loose

I bought this three weeks ago.The right speaker start to crackle a lot when nc is on...Very bad feeling! Is it possible to have support about that???Please...MB

I bought these for he noise cancelling as I find day to day life very overwhelming, after less than two months the noise cancelling stopped working in one ear, now all it does is make a horrific noise. Otherwise good head phones

I had never understood so much about listening to music on headphones. With filtering noise and their comfort I was just in another world! The only problem is that I do not know why I'm activating muffling noises and making strange noises in headphones like that wind enters the headphone and there...

These headphones are a joke. For $269 your expect a pretty good set of headphones. The sound quality is the same as my mums old car stereo, no bass at all and doesn't go anywhere near as loud as the sony mdr650bt that are far less expensive.

I am having the same issues as others it seems. There is static and a sharp crackling noise coming from the right ear cup; particularly when I rotate the ear cup. I was able to isolate it down to being related to the "noise cancelation".

These headphones are better than I expected. Much cheaper than the top of the market headphones, and plenty good enough for what I wanted.

Good soundNot as noise cancelling as hoped

Ive had the bose qck35, sony wh1000x2 and tbh, these are not far from the same quality of audio. In terms of microphone for calls, these destroy the sony and bose!! Clarity of voice is awesome.
