JBL Live 670NC Wireless On-Ear Headphones with Adaptive Noise Cancelling

Choosing headphones can come down to whether you want to block out distractions or stay aware of what is happening around you. The JBL Live 670NC offers both approaches in a wireless on-ear design.

JBL Signature Sound, 40 mm drivers and JBL Spatial Sound bring music and other stereo content to life. Bluetooth 5.3 connects the headphones to compatible devices for everyday listening.

Need to focus on a commute, then hear your surroundings without taking your headphones off? True Adaptive Noise Cancelling and Smart Ambient make it easy to switch between those listening priorities.

Tips for day-to-day use

Pair the Live 670NC with a Bluetooth-enabled phone, tablet or laptop for music, calls and entertainment at home or on the move. On a commute or while studying, use noise cancelling to help reduce distractions, switch to Smart Ambient when you want to stay more aware of nearby sounds. The headphones also support voice-assistant access by hotword or a tap on the earcup.

Auto play and pause makes listening simpler between tasks: take the headphones off and playback pauses, then resumes when you put them back on. For calls, the two beamforming microphones are designed to pick up your voice. When the battery is running low, a five-minute USB-C charge can provide up to four hours of music, and the stated full charge time is as little as two hours.

Buyer feedback often praises the sound, bass and battery life. Comfort, fit and noise-cancelling experiences are more mixed, so individual preferences for on-ear headphones may differ. The foldable design is useful when you want headphones that can be put away between listening sessions.
