Kit and Appearance: JBL T205BT Pure Bass Wireless Metal Earbuds

In addition to the JBL T205BT headphones themselves, the kit includes only a USB-micro USB charging cable and documents. The cable is made in your favorite JBL orange, but too short: you will have to choose a place to charge carefully.

Headphones look pretty interesting. What distinguishes them from faceless budget models is the abundance of color solutions and a metallic accent. They are perfect for any style of clothing and age of the user. Externally, the model is very versatile.

High-quality materials and reliable assembly of JBL Tune 250BT Bluetooth headphones are very pleasing. I would even say that the model looks and feels more expensive than it actually costs.

An endless stream of Chinese inexpensive headphones of all kinds and colors has already taught portable audio enthusiasts to be careful of low prices.

Comfort and Control: JBL T205BT Pure Bass Wireless Metal Earbuds

Headphones with microphone JBL T205BT relate to the form factor of inserts. They are comfortable in the ear, they do not rub anywhere, and they will not fall out from the head’s slight movement. However, this is true for people with average ears.

Unfortunately, in the case of earbuds, there is no possibility of adjustment to the size of the auricle. If your ears are larger than the manufacturer expects, the headphones may fall out, hold loose, and the sound will suffer from a lack of bass. If your ears are smaller, then the body will rub and cause inconvenience.

It is worth noting that the coating of the spouts of the JBL T205BT is pleasant and soft. Most potential owners will be able to spend many hours in a row with these headphones comfortably.

Active head movements can knock them out. On the other hand, it’s not so easy. You can even run at a calm pace with these headphones.

The JBL Tune 250BT headphone cable is flat, not prone to tangles. But to many, it may seem a bit long, yet 78 centimeters. Sometimes it can get in the way. There is also a special mount that allows you to clutch the headphones on the neck when not in use.

The console here is quite familiar, three-button. It works equally well with both Android and iOS. Some features are surprising, but you can get used to it. The keys are moderately elastic. They are groped easily.

Connection, Quality, and Microphone: JBL T205BT Pure Bass Wireless Metal Earbuds

JBL T205BT wireless headphones with microphones connect to the source via Bluetooth 4.1. Communication is stable; artifacts and distortions are rare. In a radius of about 10 meters, the connection holds well. The wall is also not an obstacle, most often. There is no support for high-resolution codecs.

Pairing with the phone is standard: turn on, hold the button, the headphones become available for search, find and connect on the smartphone. There is no multipoint function. At the same time, the headphones can only be connected to one device.

In reviews of the JBL T205BT, it is sometimes mentioned that the diode is bright and constantly lit. Finding headphones in a dark room will be easy. But to sleep close to them while they are charging can be problematic.

The microphone on the JBL Tune 205BT is pretty high quality. The interlocutors will hear you. Not a lot of extra noise is caught. In the role of a headset, this model looks good. Of course, if the microphone is under the jacket/coat collar, etc., you are unlikely to be heard.

Autonomy and Sound insulation: JBL T205BT Pure Bass Wireless Metal Earbuds

The JBL T205BT headset runs on a single charge for about 6 hours. Tests confirm this. Autonomy is quite decent, although far from a record. There is no indication of the charge level. An audio signal is given only 10-15 minutes before complete discharge.

You can fully charge the battery in 2 hours. A quick charge function is not provided. Listen to music until the headphones on a charge also work. In general, the results are not bad, but some limitations are imposed.

JBL Tune 205BT wireless headphones have poor sound insulation, which is typical for the in-ear form factor in principle. You will hear almost all the surrounding sounds, and if you make the music louder, it will be heard outside.

Sound Quality: JBL T205BT Pure Bass Wireless Metal Earbuds

The JBL T205BT wireless headphones sound pretty good considering the price and segment. JBL mentions their proprietary Pure Bass features in this model as well, but due to the form factor and powerful bass, you won’t hear here. But there is some semblance of a scene, though it is not very wide, and does not particularly help in the separation of instruments.

LF, despite the rise, leak through the open structure. Otherwise, the sound of the JBL Tune 205BT is quite energetic, suitable for pop music of all stripes. For more complex music, speed and detail are not enough. And live instruments will not sound very natural.

In general, the headphones are suitable for many portable audio lovers, making up a background that does not cause hostility, walks, or work.
