JBL announced its latest true wireless earbuds, the JBL Tour Pro 2 at CES in Las Vegas, offering the world’s first smart charging case, sporting a 1.45-inch LED touch display.
The display enables users to manage music, receive calls, messages and social media notifications in real-time without looking at their phone or on the JBL Headphones app.
Listeners can also optimise the ANC performance by taking the ear canal test in the JBL Headphones app. The six-microphone design promises crystal clear audio, while ANC blocks out any unwanted noise. Hi-res audio with 10mm dynamic drivers powered by JBL Pro sound is complemented by JBL Spatial Sound technology.
With up to 40 hours of playtime (10 hours plus 30 hours with the case), the true wireless earbuds are IPX5 water resistant and provide four hours of battery from just 15 minutes of charge. The earbuds come with multiple ear tip sizes to ensure optimum comfort and performance.
The JBL Tour One M2 over-ear headphones combine JBL’s best-ever hybrid True Adaptive ANC with JBL pro-tuned drivers. True Adaptive ANC technology automatically adjusts to surroundings in real-time to eliminate distractions.
Users can also set up a customised hearing profile with Harman’s advanced Personi-Fi 2.0, supported by low volume dynamic EQ, four-microphone technology with VoiceAware and JBL Spatial Sound.
Built-in Smart Talk voice recognition reacts to voice commands, pauses the music and enables Ambient Aware. Offering up to 50 hours of playtime, fast charge delivers five hours of JBL Pro Sound after just 10 minutes of charge. The JBL Tour One M2 over-ear headphones offer a compact and foldable design that weighs just 268 grams.
The JBL Tour Pro 2 and Tour One M2 will initially be available as an exclusive through JB Hi-Fi with wider retail distribution at a later date.
