JBL E55BT review

 

These JBLs are a solid bet if you want wireless on a limited budget

Good value ; Solid Bluetooth reliability ; Full-sounding bass

Slow bass decay ; Occasionally brash mids

A reasonable effort, but JBL needs to do more to impress

JBL E55BT review

  (Rating Hidden)

The JBL E55BT over-ear headphones are a wireless Bluetooth pair. They're available for quite a bit less than the headline offerings from brands such as Sony and Bose, but do they cut the mustard when it comes to sound quality and comfort? Read on to...

JBL E55BT review

 

Not everyone wants to spend $300 on a premium Bluetooth headphone, which is where products like JBL's E55BT come in. An over-ear headphone and top-end model in JBL's "value" E-Series line of wireless headphones, the E55BT is the successor to the E50BT...

The JBL E55BT is an attractively designed over-ear Bluetooth headphone that's relatively comfortable, sounds decent and works reliably. It folds up and flat and has decent battery life.

A bit of treble push, no carrying case included.

JBL's new top-end model in its "value" E-Series Bluetooth headphone line delivers solid sound and a comfortable fit for the price.

JBL E55BT

 

JBL's E55BT headphones deliver a high-quality Bluetooth experience with rich, boosted bass response matched by crisp highs.

Powerful audio performance with strong bass and crisp highs. Exceptionally comfortable, even during long listening sessions. Includes cable for wired, passive listening.

No included carrying case or pouch. Sculpted sound signature not for purists.

Generally speaking, the E55BT headphones offer a sculpted-but-balanced audio experience, with robust bass response and crisp, clear highs. It's not a flat response sound signature, but it will appeal to listeners who like a little added bass depth...

JBL E55BT HEADPHONES

 

The JBL E55BT are average wireless headphones for most use cases. They have a stylish design with a decent sound and a comfortable design. They're lightweight yet decently well-built and they're pretty easy-to-use. They do well for most use cases but...

Comfortable and lightweight design. ; Above-average sound quality.

Poor noise isolation. ; Inconsistent bass. ; Bass delivery varies significantly across users. Sensitive to glasses.

JBL E55BT review: Wireless headphones deliver solid sound, comfy fit

 

JBL's new top-end model in its "value" E-Series Bluetooth headphone line doesn't quite wow, but does deliver solid sound and a comfortable fit.

JBL E55BT Wireless Headphones Review

 

With thoughtful design and acceptably warm audio, the JBL E55BT is a great pair of budget wireless headphones.

Lightweight ; Seamless multi-device connectivity

Slightly suffocating ; Audio leak

The JBL E55BT has many strengths. In terms of design, thoughtful features make it highly portable, even if the build itself could have used less plastic to feel sturdier. Audio performance will displease only pure audiophiles – the warm sound signature...

At $200 JBL brings serious style to a crowded wireless headphone market with good audio fidelity and an on-trend dusty rose (pink) color to die for.
