JBL Live 780NC Wireless Noise-Cancelling Over-Ear Headphones

These headphones look smart and understated. They paired with my phone quickly, and the controls were easy to get used to. The sound is clear and detailed, with plenty of bass without overpowering the vocals. I briefly tested the sound adjustments in the JBL app, although I haven’t explored all the settings in much depth yet. The noise cancelling makes a noticeable difference, particularly during my daily train commute to work. They fit comfortably around my ears and feels snug without being too tight. They’re slightly heavier than basic headphones, but I can still wear them for long periods without discomfort. The battery life has been super so far, and a short charge gives plenty of additional listening time. They also fold flat, so they’re easy to carry in my backpack. On the whole, they’re a versatile pair of everyday headphones, with the quality I’ve come to expect from JBL

They are a bit tight against the ears discomfort after 90 mins.

So I have owned headphones before and realistically I've never been that bigger fan of over the ear headphones over earbuds, however these are actually really comfortable the battery lasts a very long time. The noise cancellation is really really good I travel a lot and on the planes it basically completely isolate you so yeah 100% recommend these.

Picked these headphones a little over a month ago, having previously used the JBL tune models the live 780 is far superior in all aspects. The comfort over extended use is something I have never thought was possible, but even after a few hours you forget they’re on your head. The noise cancelling feature is great, and the ambient aware is superb too! Fantastic product- 10/10

Bought these headphones for my husband for Father’s Day He absolutely loved them The quality and sound is top notch I’m thinking if purchasing a pair for myself now

I am truly very satisfied with the headphones. The materials are really high-quality, featuring metal and a leather-like effect on the headband. The wearing comfort is excellent; even though I have a small head, it fits very well. The fact that the ear cushions fit around the ears makes wearing the headphones for a long period really comfortable. As far as audio quality is concerned, the sound performance is really good, and the different listening modes are great, featuring a very efficient noise-cancellation mode. I recommend this product, which in my opinion offers excellent value for money. The only small downside is the microphone quality—some people complain that they cannot hear me well during calls and I also regret the lack of a protective hard case, though there is still a small pouch that allows you to store the headphones and the cable. Another important point: the battery life is really very long and the charging time is very fast, which is a massive advantage for this type of product. 8.5/10 for me.

After downloading the app, I found these easy to pair and use. They are very comfortable and more lightweight than I was expecting so easy to take around with me. They come with a travel bag too with a small pocket for holding the charging cable too. I can wear them for hours and they don't feel heavy or cause any ear pain. I use the app to change the settings whwn on my phone but everything can be done n the headphones themselves. Tap to pause and play, which is quite receptive. A small button to switch between noise cancelling, ambient aware and talk thru. The noise cancelling is good when the volume is a bit higher but I could definitely hear people near me when the volume was less than half. There is a headphone jack but no charging cable, however with most devices using usb-c, this isn't really necessary as a normal phone charger works. The battery life lasts ages too, I have been using them on and off all week and haven't needed to charge yet.

The JBL Live 780NC are the sort of headphones you stop thinking about, which is actually as a compliment. They sit comfortably enough for a long train journey, the earcups don’t get sweaty, and the button layout means you’re not fumbling to skip a track. Bluetooth reconnects instantly when I take them out of the case. In terms of durability, they’ve held up. The headband adjusts smoothly and hasn’t loosened, and the folding hinges still feel tight after months of being thrown in and out of a bag. Plastic, yes, but not flimsy plastic. The battery is genuinely the reason I keep reaching for these over more expensive pairs. I plug them in far less often than I expect to, and a short charge rescues me when I forget. I've been on a trip for a week and so far have not had to recharge them although they're just hitting 20% now with 2 days to go. On price, they undercut the obvious premium rivals by a wide margin while giving up surprisingly little. Unless you specifically need best-in-class noise cancelling, the extra spend is hard to justify. The audio is clear and crisp with most people mentioning how clear it's been. I am yet to test these in windy situations but I am certain they will hold up just fine.

A few weeks ago, I bought these earphones with modest expectations, but they quickly became a massive surprise. From the first use, the earphones' comfort has stood out to me. They're lighter than I expected and fold up well, so they're very portable. The soft, cushioned material gently moulds around my ears, a big contrast to other options I've tried in the past that eventually hurt my ears or the side of my head. No such issues here! The free JBL Sound was easy to find on the Google Play Store. It's very intuitive, practical and full of useful features. I'm still getting my head around the level of customisation available; it's super granular and highly personalisable. The noise-cancelling and clarity are superb. I've used these in the gym, but mainly in the office to block everyone out. The physical controls on the earphones are thoughtfully placed and effortless to use. By chance, I found out you can also tap the right ear cover for a function too! My point is you can use this so easily without reading the manual. I keep stumbling onto new features every other day. Finally, the battery life and sound quality exceeded my expectations. This has been a genuinely satisfying purchase. The only improvement needed is the free bag provided. It's a lightweight cotton bag; I would have loved it to be a bit thicker for more protection. Regardless, this is very good value for money, and I'm keeping it. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Absolutely love my headphones. I was waiting for a while to see a color that I would love and so glad I waited for the green. Sound quality is outstanding, this is my 5th JBL product.
