If you prefer headphones that offer a more traditional over-ear experience with a foldable design for easier transport, the JBL Tune 710BT is suitable, especially when sound quality and build are priorities, as well as more extended use without recharging with its long battery life. On the other hand, the JBL Vibe Beam True Wireless offers true wireless convenience, superior mic quality which is beneficial for calls, as well as a lighter, more compact form ideal for exercise and travel, including a case that extends battery life further. The Vibe Beam also features higher scores for use during exercise, which means they are sweatproof and dustproof, but if active noise cancelling is a must-have for you, neither of these models would be ideal as both lack this feature.

"We are facing headphones that are comfortable to use with a foldable and lightweight design, which is combined with 40mm dynamic drivers and a multipoint Bluetooth connection, which makes them versatile and a good option for day-to-day use, whether for listening music, podcasts, audiobooks, or videos."
"The Vibe Beam earbuds may not be a sleek as other earbuds in the price range, such as the equally priced Vibe Buds, but they sound great, have a long battery life, and come with an equalizer. And if you just need a solid pair if earbuds to get you through your commute, these will do the trick. I have no complaints here."
