amazon JBL E55BT reviews
E55BT is available in 5 colors black, blue, red, green, and white, with dedicated cable accessories 3.5 mm jack, and a micro USB charging cable. The headset has a headband specially crafted for very high comfort when wearing, plus the earpad fits the whole ear, making the wearer forget about the world around when playing their favorite songs. Contrary to the rather large over-ear design, the extremely lightweight E55BT is perfectly suitable for users with portable needs, especially those who have a habit of wearing headphones all day. The earpad is flexible and twisted slightly, so users do not need to worry about accidentally dropping it on hard surfaces.
The headset allows folding for easy storage. One point worth noting is that because the earpad is sewn from artificial leather, it has only medium ventilation and will cause heat to the ear when worn for a long time. This point is also common in mid-range over-ear headphones, but it is still a detail worth mentioning. E55BT for about 20 hours of continuous use but does not support fast charging. The product can also be used with a cable like a regular wired headset with the included 3.5 mm jack cable. Customers will need a Lightning jack adapter if they are using Apple iPhone 7. The remaining features, such as control keys or microphones, are distributed on the earcup and allow basic music operations similar to other products. Popular over-ear/on-ear Bluetooth headset products. The E55BT, of course, also supports working with Apple Siri.
The E55BT’s Bluetooth must be said to be extremely good with the connection quality nothing to blame. Although it does not support aptX or aptX HD, the headset can still transmit an extremely stable signal, allowing quick connection and switching with multiple sources simultaneously. The E55BT also knows how to connect to a used source if it is within range. Testing signal conversion between Mac and iPhone 7 computers with E55BT gives excellent results; the delay when converting is almost zero, and there is no interruption.
The E55BT has a sound quality created following JBL’s signature that fans have loved for a long time. The bass is deep; a solid, strong beating force shows the bass-drop accents in EDM songs like Animal or Tremor; the good point is that it doesn’t make the sound opaque when the sub-bass hits are high in volume and rhythmic. In terms of quality, it’s good, but in terms of volume, for bass heads, it will not be crowing if the bass in my song is “cut” quite a bit; I mean the Sony XB950B1. The amount of sub-bass and thickness of the XB950B1 will satisfy the bass head more than the E55BT, but the upper-bass and punchy in each bass beat, the E55BT is still clear, coherent, and much cleaner.
Compared to the Sony XB950B1, the E55BT exhibits a wider soundstage and is more pleasant to listen. This type of sound is very suitable when listening to live albums and gospel choirs. The vocals are spread out and often lie behind the instrument, creating a strange but very comfortable and relaxing sound space. Although the E55BT does not possess impressive transparency and detail, its sound is easy to hear and satisfy mid-range users who are not too fastidious.
Overall with a cheap price, the E55BT has clearly shown all its necessary strengths and stood out in dozens of mid-range Bluetooth headset products. Maybe the minus point of the E55BT is that no aspect is too strong, but its beauty is that it does not encounter too weak points. The headset is perfect for everyday use, offering great battery life, powerful Bluetooth, and impressive usability, which is appreciated by most mid-range users so far.
