Design
I previously had a Wired Beats Pro, currently TWS earbuds from Bluedio and QCY, and currently a Steelseries Wireless Headset in terms of gaming. I must honestly say that the Beats pro had very good noise canceling, but of course you pay for that, because Beats from Dr. Dré and Apple was also the top prize for. JBL's partnership with Harman (which I also had a speaker from, I thought the bass was very good, but the balance of the sound not so good. These headphones, on the other hand, I think the JBL LIVE460NC is a suitable Christmas gift because the sound is on the better side than expected for such a model, I also really like the function of pausing music when you remove the headphones from your head. JBL has put a good headphone on the market with this product. However, JBL may work on the button layout, refine the bass slightly (which you can also do yourself with the EQ functions), and improve the ANC somewhat (without having music on), because there is a small noise in it. I also think that the pillow could be softer to do something more about comfort, on the other hand, the material is comfortable what has been used. I also think it's a shame that the Perfect Stereo Calls function is not really fulfilled. The app, on the other hand, is simple and easy to use and works as it should. I don't know what the app should do other than switching some settings on and off more easily if you don't want to do that via the headphones. Ultimately, when weighing the + and –' and I feel the +'s prevail and can recommend this product to purchase as a Christmas gift to other music lovers.

I really like the design of the JBL Live460NC, it's a nice black color and the arc of the headphones is a bit like the speakers. I think the quality of the sound is very good, actually as I am used to from JBL. I really like the app, you can turn a number of things on or off, and you can see, for example, what percentage the headphones are. I had high expectations about the headphones beforehand, my experience has been very positive. The sound is very good, the headphones can only feel very tight after a few hours. The headset is very easy to use, it also has a very long battery life
