Review: Low Latency for Steam Deck and PC plus Hi Fidelity for Mobile - First Thing: UPDATE these ear buds. You need to do it TWICE! Get the JBL app for your phone and software update the buds, then get the JBL Quantum Engine App for PC (or Mac) and do the firmware update. Before the updates I could only get one bud/channel to work with Android using the dongle, and after the updates both buds work. So far I have tested the USB-C Dongle with PC, Steam Deck, iPad, and Android - it works well with all devices listed providing low latency, and high(er) fidelity, sound. I tested multiple games on Steam Deck, including Hi-Fi Rush (a rhythm game), and had no latency issues. The Dongle is true plug and play (no setup needed) on every device except PC. Plugging in the USB-C Dongle prompted a download of Quantum Engine, and inside the QE app you can set EQ and tweak the Surround Sound settings. I tested the buds in Battlefield V on PC and the surround sound worked well. Adjusting the EQ in the QE app on PC is easy and necessary in order to get the most pleasing sound. The only device I’m using Bluetooth with is my Android phone and the sound is fine - use the JBL app to adjust the EQ. The Android App offers a FULL EQ, not the typical/lame EQ for dummies a lot of ear bud devices ship with. I’ve only had the JBL Quantum TWS Airs (that name lol) for a short time, so I can’t offer a comprehensive review yet. I will say they are very light and fit well in my ears. There is no wing, or stabilizer, so these might not be great for active on-the-go situations. The stock EQ needed a tweak for my ears, and the Apps make that easy. The sound quality via the USB-C Dongle is a noticeable upgrade in terms of latency and fidelity. These are better for music than I anticipated, and from reviews I read this is one of the big differences from the more expensive, and older version, of this line of Quantum TWS buds. Battery life is much shorter using the Dongle, and that makes sense as the low latency signal is more power hungry than Bluetooth. I spent some time looking for low latency wireless ear buds and this is one the most affordable options out there ($40 on sale). Hopefully in time more companies will offer similar low latency earbuds, or maybe Bluetooth will get good enough to make a product like this irrelevant.
Review: JBL has knocked this out of the park - These are my first pair of gaming earbuds, in fact my first earbuds period. I have only used over the ear gaming headphones for my PlayStation consoles forever, but after receiving these JBL's and pairing them to my PS5? I was simply blown away. I had noticed before buying these that many were returned and for the life of me, I don't understand why, because IMO these are a high quality product from JBL. Let me go over why I love these so much. First the feel and freedoms of not having a bulking headset while gaming or listening to music which I was equally impressed with. As for the sound? It had that punchy bass, clear treble I had never had before with my the over ear head sets. And the volume on these are powerful and loud. I actually had to turn in down. I'm not sure why there were so many complaints about the battery life. I played for a little over their suggested time getting well into the 20 hours range on a full charge. Then there is also the ease of use with just a few taps left or right, no more searching for the scroll wheels or buttons to find with most over the ear headsets. Pairing these to my cell and PS5 was instantaneous. You get a notification, "Dongle Connected" as well as by tapping the left and right buds for other options. The charging case has a magnetic portal where the buds easily fall into place. You also have a slot to store the dongle. It also has 3 charging lights while connected with the Type C cord that let you know when running low or fully charged. Another fine attribute. Moving on to the ANC. This was my only gripe. I live in extreemly noisy environment, NYC. While it was drowning out some of the noise while gaming I was still able to enjoy my playing time. For me personally? The Pros far Outweigh the one small Con. As for the mic? I can't comment on this as I am a loner when I play my games. However, while talking with a friend before buying these he mentioned if I could give the mic a try once I'm up and running with these since he is also a gamer that might be interested in buying these if the mic quality is good. Once we give this a shot? I will add it to this review in the near future. My final thoughts. JBL has knocked this out of the park. They are an amazing pair of earbuds. Everything from the comfort, the sound, and the ease of use has got me convinced I will never wear over the ear headsets again. Excellent Job JBL!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but flawed
*by M***E on June 15, 2025*

Was looking for a gaming ear pod that uses a dongle because my gaming PC’s Bluetooth is spotty. I don’t like to use headphones as they aren’t very comfortable for long periods. This JBL fits the bill albeit with one negative. Pros: Good sound ANC - is adequate, but not nearly as good as AirPods Pro for comparison Cons: Battery Life! - I have not been able to get more than three hours out of it. Mic - I don’t think it’s sufficient quality to use for gaming. Fortunately, I normally don’t use a mic, if I need one, I’ll use headphones.
