Picture this: You’re working at a cafe, enjoying some matcha and a view of the city skyline while you’re typing away at work when the environment gets a little busy, disrupting your flow. 

In these situations, a trusty pair of headphones is a necessary accessory. They’re not only handy for playing music or podcasts; they’re especially useful for times when you need some quiet when you’re on the go. 

For instance, when you’re hopping on a flight, the JBL Live 780NC makes for a good trip buddy. These over-ear headphones come with True Adaptive Noise Cancelling 2.0, which can drown out and filter environmental noises like the jet engine. With the JBL Headphones App, you can further refine how much of the environment you want to let in. This way, you can focus on your music to get some peace while you’re working remotely. 

JBL Live 780NC quiets your surroundings wherever you go. These over-ear headphones are priced at P11,999.

The JBL Live 780NC is also equipped with two-mic Perfect Calls 2.0 with an AI-trained algorithm, so if you’re on the phone, you can expect the person at the other end of the line to hear you clearly.

For daily commutes, the on-ear JBL Live 680NC may fit the bill, with its ergonomically shaped earcups and lightweight silicon headband that make it comfortable to wear for long hours. When you’re done listening, they easily fold flat and slip in a soft pouch that won’t take up a lot of space in your bag.

These headphones also come with True Adaptive Noise Cancellation 2.0, which you can fine-tune through the JBL Headphones app. When you’re on your way to school or work, you can simply lower the noise cancellation so you’re still aware of your surroundings. 

The JBL Live 680NC’s long 80-hour battery life will also keep the music playing, even after a long road trip. 

Love music? The JBL Tune 780NC’s Hi-Res Pure Bass Sound paired with Adaptive Noise Cancellation can help you enjoy your tracks wherever you go. These over-ear headphones are also good for gaming, as they come with a Spatial Sound feature that immerses you into the playing experience.

If you’re a gym rat, the lightweight and comfortable JBL Tune 680NC offers bassy music to accompany you while you reach a new PR. It also comes with Adaptive Noise Cancelling that automatically adjusts to tune out distractions, whether you’re focused on your workout or getting into the groove. With Ambient Aware and TalkThru, you can stay aware of what’s happening around you or jump into conversations without taking off your headphones, like when your gym buddy needs a spotter. You can easily manage these settings through the JBL Headphones app. 

The lightweight JBL Tune 680NC is perfect for workouts. Priced at P6,399.

With a 76-hour battery life, these on-ear headphones can keep you hyped on long runs, too.
