September 2, 2021 TechDecisions Staff

Style and substance without compromise

STAMFORD, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The latest true wireless earbuds from JBL deliver sound that fits into every type of lifestyle – from urban explorers to fitness enthusiasts.

We are always pushing ourselves beyond the cutting edge of sound so that whatever we do, we are connecting people to others and to themselves. Whether you need active noise cancellation or extra-long battery life to get you through a long trip to see friends and family, JBL has you covered.”
