JBL Tune 225TWS
The 12mm dynamic drivers deliver JBL’s signature Pure Bass sound, backed by Bluetooth 5.0 and a total 25-hour battery life through the charging case. Dual Connect enables independent use of either earbud, while the pocketable, river-stone-shaped case offers six color options for personalization. These are best for casual listeners wanting a bass-forward audio experience all day, but their 26.7 fitness score makes them unsuitable for workouts.
