Noise-cancelling on-ear headphones
JBL's on-ear noise-cancelling headphones: a smaller take on the Live 780NC with four-mic adaptive noise cancelling, LDAC and the same battery rating. The on-ear fit is the main tradeoff.
-
Strong on-ear noise cancelling
True Adaptive Noise Cancelling 2.0 uses four microphones to the Live 780NC's six. Reviewers found it strong for on-ear headphones, with little practical difference from the 780NC.
-
On-ear pressure
The cushions sit on the ears rather than around them. Reviewers found this adds pressure that can become uncomfortable over long sessions.
-
50 hours with noise cancelling
Rated up to 50 hours with noise cancelling on and 80 with it off, the same as the Live 780NC, and reviewers' testing matched. A 5-minute charge is rated for 4 hours.
