Best bang for the buck
I've had my pair for abt 3 years now. They're better than more expensive ones I've had. Battery life is fantastic, sounds good, padding is comfy and doesn't crack or flake. As a commuter with little kids, these have taken a beating - thrown into my work bag, diaper bag, back seat, you name it. The only negatives I've really had, is that it slips some when I've got my head down and sometimes the ear pads make my ears too toasty. But honestly, I've had JBL both on ear and ear buds, and I don't want anything else.

Decent headphones
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Solid all around product, could be a little bit louder. They are a little bit tight after a while and become a little uncomfortable not bad if you only wanna wear them for a short time, but long-term they start to hurt

Great headphones!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised by these headphones. As a more entry-level model in JBL's lineup, I wasn't expecting such an even sound profile. While I've never been a big fan of "on ear" style headphones these are surprisingly comfortable to wear, and still do a decent job of blocking out unwanted noise. The sound stage is nice for right-left separation, though it doesn't have the depth of higher-end models. The bass response is much better than expected as well, these headphones definitely outclass many earbuds in sound quality. Overall, these are a great bang for the buck. While they don't have many of the features of fancier models, (no active listening, auto-off, or voice assistant) they don't really need those things to be good headphones. Not to mention the battery life is stellar! i have charged these guys once after fully depleting the battery, but they last me days even when I accidentally leave them on over night.

Wonderful headphones
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these headphones. I use them to listen to music while cleaning, listening to audiobooks before bed, and while completing my school work. They are comfortable and lightweight, easy to pair and the charge last a really long time.

Battery power sound quality plus comfort = perfect
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me be frank. I love these headphones. They are so comfortable, have amazing sound, and there are hours and hours and hours of battery life available right out of the box! It is unbelievably simple to pair them to any device, or even multiple devices! I think my favorite feature, though, might be the fact that they can fold up for easy storage. I love taking them away with me when I travel for work and don’t have to worry about recharging them or having them be bulky in my longings. 10/10 would recommend!!!

Big Bang for the Buck
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these headphones for a few days now and for the price, I am very impressed. Decent padding on the top and ears. I can wear them comfortably for hours. The blue tooth range is good because I move from rooms to rooms without disconnection (upstairs) If I go down stairs, I lost connection. The sound is better than I expected for the price. Lyrics are clear and base is deep. The ability to connect the JBL Tune 520 BT to multiple devices simultaneously, without needing to disconnect and reconnect, makes my lives a lot easier because I connect them with my work computer and my phone. The only complaint I have is the charging cable is a bit too short.

Best
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this JBL Tune 520 BT headphones for about 10 days. So far the best for the price in terms of build quality, sound quality, features and options it has. The box is included with the cable for charging. The best part is it has a JBL app supporting these headphones using which we can customize some of the settings and the setup is very easy. Coming to wearing it for a longer time is also good without any complaints with its long-lasting battery and feather kind of light weight. Coming to sound quality and bass is great for the price. It has the option of a multipoint connection, like connecting to 2 devices at a time and switching between them, but I found it a little hard to switch and there was no clear info about it. Other than that, the rest of the things are absolutely great.

JBL Tune 520BT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Another great product from JBL. JBL Tune 520BT Headphones are very well designed and simple to use. Very well packaged as well as graphics on box. The moment I unboxed I realized these were solidly built and designed which I am accustomed to from JBL. Packaging was on point with a quick and easy setup manual. Headphones were charged and ready go right out of the box. Easy to setup and connect to blue tooth. The Tune 520BT sound was very good from a basic easy to use headphones. They seemed to block out surrounding noise. I would like to try on a flight and see how they perform. I definitely believe if your looking for well priced and easy to use headphones with good build and sound quality these are a no brainer. The only negative is I wish they came with a better storage bag or case for protection when not in use or putting them in a book bag. These would be great for kids and teens. I definitely will use as my go to headphones.

Comfortable, Quality, Convenient
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great all around experience. I enjoy using these headphones while in the office or chores around the house. They block out just enough sound without making me feel like I am missing anything going on around me. Very easy to connect to my phone and computer. The sound quality has been perfect for both music and podcasts. They are a good weight to where I do not feel bogged down while wearing. I look forward to using these when I need a little me time in the office.

Really great sounding headphones
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I receied these headphones a few days ago,a nd have used them for approx 4 hours of music listening so far. Setup with the iPhone app was very simple, and they sound fantastic! Very comfortable too. Not too heavy and they don't squeeze my head the way the sports headphones do. I plan to use them in 2 weeks when I travel as I think they will be great on a plane.

Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound on these headphones are absolutely amazing! Such great quality! The amount of time the battery last for is great too! Charging doesn't take too long and is easy to do. Connecting to Bluetooth is simple. The only thing I could see as a downfall is some people may not like the size of the ear pieces. They are on the smaller size.

Headphones that Punch Above their Weight Class!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Tune 520BT headphones are a stunning value in their class. They are an on-ear wireless model, with bluetooth connectivity, long battery life, and are phenominally portable. I am not usually a fan of on-ear vs my preferred over-the-ear, but the cups are very comfortable and cushy, and they do not squeeze the ears too tightly, yet still feel very secure. I even dig how clearly marked the left/right cups are, and the control buttons are placed smartly and feel well-made.
Pairing is super simple, and you can manage them by downloading the JBL app to your phone. The app is intuitive, and allows you to customize your EQ, or select a preset, each of which is set well to bring out the best in the headphone's sound. There is also a setting for video playback that helps fine tune performance, and it works very well. I have not noticed any latency ever with these. There are expanded bass functionalities, and they definitely boom. As a personal preference, I generally do not go for heavy bass, preferring a more balanced, rounded, full sound, which these provide! Clarity and detail also recieve unexpectedly high marks; they are almost in the same class as my top-shelf, over-the-ears set that are much, much more expensive. While I do miss having noise cancellation for air travel, the value and quality here make me forget about that!
I am finding these are perfect on-the-go headphones that I keep with my laptop for work. They fold very well, and are super slim, making them easy to slip in and out of my messenger bag. They feel well-constructed and durable.
Long story short, these are my new workhorse headphones. Intuitive, quality, reliable, and comfortable. Oh- and they look stylish too!

Comfortable and sleek
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfortable, crisp, light weight and sleek. I like how they aren't bulky, I don't feel like they are wearing me..simple buttons with function. They are very comfortable on my ears for hours. They definitely have good bass sound for my daily tracks
I wouldn't recommend for a bass enthusiast but they do enhance the bass in my tracks to make it sound crisp.

JBL TUNE 520 BT Headset Review
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this headset a few weeks ago and finally had some time to try it out. To date I’ve been pretty impressed with this headset.
The contents of the box were basic and included the headset, a short orange USB-C to USB-C cable, a quick start guide/instruction manual, and the headset’s warranty documentation.
The fast-pairing BT connection was extremely quick and reliable on both my Android phone and when connecting to my Windows computer. The sound was impressive right out of the box. However, it was even better when both sound and equalizer adjustments were made via the JBL Headphones App. All my video and voice conference calls were crystal clear on the headset. It was both light and comfortable enough for me to wear for extended periods of time on calls, and during 2-3 hour-long meetings.
The power, volume, connection, and audio controls are located on the right ear cup and were easy enough to find and adjust without looking – that is, after I wore them a couple of times.

Great value and sound.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use these doing work around the house and while running. The on-ear fit has the benefit of not pressing in my glasses. The sound quality is impressive for such a light-weight headphone. My head is bigger than average, so it fits a little tight, but I don’t mind because it won’t be falling off while jogging. Again, the sound is amazing as usual from JBL.

My only complaint is they don't fit well when I put my glasses on.

Beyond Basic
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my JBL 520BT in a desktop PC/Win v11 environment, as its bluetooth sound device. This desktop is not my primary source for video or sound, but is my bread and butter device for a non professional use that needs localized user sound. The 520BT paired easily with my PC in a non app environment. The battery life is excellent. The sound quality is quite good for its price point. I typically use the device for total of two hours a day in half hour increments. For me the ear muffs are little on the small side, and muff pressure a little tight. Also would like to see on led indicator

Light weight, decent fidelity and bass
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First let me say that most of my earphones are in the ear types. I've always wanted to try over the ear headphones because of the belief that the base would be better and the fidelity crisper. These earphones don't disappoint. They are lightweight and easily fit on your ears. They look kind of small at first glance but do a good job of isolating sound to your eardrums. Let me be clear that they do not go over your entire ear like some of the larger ones I have seen. With that said, they sound much better than in the ear headphones.
I guess I was expecting more from this type of headset. The bass it's definitely augmented versus in the ear headphones but not as much as I would have liked. JBL makes excellent ear sets and these are no exception. For the price I think they are a very good buy. I use my earphones primarily at the gym and I think I still prefer the in the ear JBL earphones that I have because of their size. If you're looking for an over the ear headset this is a good buy.

Compact with Excellent Sound
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Starting off, the packaging is perfectly done with a good presentation. It’s strait to the point while keeping wasteful extras to a minimum. The build quality, this is something that is super important with headphones intended to be used every day. After vigorously testing and using these over a week, there is no apparent weakness and these are very well made while maintaining a super light weight.
The adjustments above the ear cups are the only gripe found with these but once set in a comfortable spot they seem to stay there. Now, the most important part, the sound quality. As expected from JBL, the sound signature is near perfect strait out of the box. There is adjustable EQ capabilities on the app which brings the headphones to a new level. Punchy lows and crispy highs, these keep your tunes fresh for hours on end. The extremely respectable battery life on these outshine any others. I forgot to even charge these for the majority of the time using them so far.
To finalize this, I can say without a doubt, these are a smart purchase for any average listener or school goers who need an extra upgrade in sound. I wouldn’t recommend these for any heavy movement activities but they do stay in place pretty well.

Pleasantly surprised
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had the headphones for a week and have used them 3 separate times. Out of the box I was pleasantly surprised by how clear all the levels sounded, especially the lows. They are extremely comfortable and the battery life is good. I recommend these bt headphones to anyone out there trying to ball on a budget.

Top Notch Headphones by JBL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quality designed headphones that are easy to use. The level of detail in the differences in sound when listening to music or talking on the phone is first rate. Audio quality on phone calls is the best I have heard using headphones. Tune 520bt are also designed with comfort when wearing for a long period of time. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for good headphones for a reasonable price.

Super Light, Great Battery Life, App Connectivity
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tune 520 are over-ear headphones, made of plastic with faux-leather earcups. Like I said they’re very lightweight and the earcup padding is plush, but the clamping force is pretty high so those with larger heads (like me) will be uncomfortable after even a moderate listening session. Those with normal-sized heads might feel differently. Overall, the construction seems pretty good.
The controls on the 520 are straightforward and similar to other JBL units. There are buttons on the right ear cup to help you turn the phones on and off, adjust volume, skip tracks forward and backwards, play/pause audio. The power button is also used for Bluetooth, and the upgrade to Bluetooth 5.3 is a nice addition. The headphones support multi-point connection, which means that they can connect to two devices. Charging is handled by USB-C. You can also adjust the equalization using the JBL Headphones app.
The 520s delivered very balanced sound out of the box. It was extremely flat, but connecting to the app allows you to tailor them to your liking. Stereo separation is great and the bass extension in the app provides a ton of punch. It took me a little while, but I was able to get the equalizer set to my liking.
Bottom line: The JBL Tune 520 are a nice way to break into JBL headphones. They’re super lightweight, the battery life is tremendous, and if you like bass you’ll love these headphones. The ability to tailor the sound using JBL’s app (which I really like) is a big plus for headphones in this price range. You just better have a smaller head.

I love the headphones good quality but suddenly they stopped charging I even used a new charger but it didn't work. My headphones' lifespan probably ended but it said that they last longer than 4-6 years. But mine stopped for half a year, which is confusing. I was just wondering is that normal?
