JBL E40BT: Made for everyday
Firstly, if you are an audiophile looking for some great quality sound, don’t read any further, because this device is not meant for you. However, if your need happened to fall between the wired as well as the wireless, and you are not so finicky about every beat in your favourite music, you may want to take a look at the new JBL E40BT.

The clarity of sound was beyond what we expected, thanks to the 40mm drivers, and the battery lasted for over 10 hours in three separate occasions, making it a perfect companion for long travels. Since it has an aux-in support, your experience is not limited even when the battery drains out. But what made us appreciate the device even more is how comfortably it sits on your ear. We have tested headphones from trusted brands in the past, where the ear cups would put too much pressure on the ears, making it uneasy to stay hooked in to the earphones for long periods.

The sound controls are placed on the ear cups, which may take time to get used to, but are nevertheless, easy to use. Unfortunately, we found the overall sound being compromised while using the mic, which comes across as a huge disappointment, more so because everything else was just perfect. The headphones are great for daily use, especially if you are a fan of heavy-bass music.
