If you prioritize noise cancellation and are willing to invest more for a durable over-ear experience, consider the JBL Tune 760NC, which offers better noise isolation ideal for air travel. However, these are less portable and have less suitability for exercise compared to the JBL Vibe Beam True Wireless. On the other hand, if you're looking for something more affordable that still delivers good sound and call quality with added sweat and dustproofing, making it suitable for workouts, the JBL Vibe Beam could be the more practical choice. The Vibe Beam's earbuds are also easier to carry around and provide the convenience of wireless charging, albeit with slightly less overall sound quality and noise cancellation than the 760NC.

Major HiFi
Staff | May 2023
"The JBL 760NC offers quite a solid and moderately-above-average sonic performance for wireless headphones in this price tier. As usual, JBL outperforms more conventional big names like Apple or Beats. Listeners are given a clean, detailed, and mostly neutral sound that, typical to Harman, holds a universal appeal that seems unlikely to offend."

"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."
