Even as many of the year’s best deals wrap up this week, buyers can still find excellent earbud deals and more, if they know where to look. One pick, for example, is Amazon’s 60% off on the JBL Tune Flex earbuds, which are a great, affordable pair of buds that are now priced at under $40.
While they may not be the best wireless earbuds on the market, they still offer a really affordable entry price for active noise cancellation, high-quality audio, and crystal clear phone calls. Buyers also say they find the fit comfortable without a silicone ear tip and with the AirPod-like stemmed design.
✅Recommended if: you’re looking for a pair of noise-cancelling earbuds for around $40; battery life is a top priority for you when it comes to cheap earbuds; you need something with water resistance for workouts or outdoor adventures.
❌Skip this deal if: you’d prefer over-ear headphones and may want to consider upgrading to some that are on our best JBL headphones list; you want a pair of earbuds with a silicone ear tip for improved fit; you’d prefer a pair of earbuds or headphones with a more balanced audio profile, rather than a bass-heavy one.
The JBL Tune Flex wireless earbuds feature the company’s signature Pure Bass Sound, along with ANC, Smart Ambient mode, and four onboard microphones for clear phone calls and voice commands.
JBL says these will get up to 8 hours of battery life per charge when ANC isn’t engaged or up to 24 with intermittent use of the charging case. With ANC, the company says they’ll get roughly 6 hours per charge and 18 hours with the charging case. Fast charging is also a factor here, with just a 10-minute charge replenishing about 2 hours of playtime, according to JBL.
You can also use the JBL headphones mobile app for a range of EQ and audio customization options, Smart Audio and Video modes, touch control gestures, and more. They also come with an IPX4 water resistance rating, meaning they’ll withstand light levels of sweat from workouts or most mild outdoor weather conditions.
