I have reviewed quite a few AliExpress items now, some have been good, others not, and some outright scams. I am not quite sure which category this one fits into. The JBL Tune 760NC headset retails for just under £70 on Amazon but it is widely available from a range of suppliers on AliExpress and can be bought for as little as £20, so it must be a scam, right?
Inside the attractive and well-designed display box, which seems in every respect to me to be identical to the JBL original, was the headset itself, a very short bright orange USB-C Charging Cable, audio cable, a concertina style Quick Start Guide and large and dense book of legal disclaimers and bumf. The User Guide is easy to read although not very informative. All the specifications I list here are taken from the enclosed user guide and may or may not be accurate.
The on-ear style headphones feel very lightweight and not particularly well made or robust. The headset looks good with an attractive black silk finish to the body and what looks like PU leather for the headband and earcups. The padding is good but not luxurious with the cups bearing a a large and prominent L and R inside the cups. The all plastic headband can be extended an inch or so and the cups themselves can be rotated and positioned pretty much any way you want. I found the headset to be rather a tight fit and not very comfortable, although the light weight did reduce the strain.
The right cup has all the electronics and along the edge of the cup are buttons for Power On/Off, ANC On/Off, vol/track Up and Down, and Play/Pause/Call Answer/Reject/ Personal Assistant. There is also a standard 3.5mm audio cable port for the headset to be used in wired mode. The buttons are all flush, black and hard to identify by sight or by touch. Red/Blue/white LEDs are present for Bluetooth and ANC status alerts and charging confirmation, in addition to audio alerts.
The Active Noise Cancellation, as with all such headsets is better described as Active Noise Reduction, does actually work and quite effectively for sustained low pitch rumbles – traffic, road roar, engines, – rather than for sudden high-pitched noises but in general it works well and makes a noticeable difference. The headset can also be used as normal earphones and an audio cable is provided for this purpose. Unlike with many other ANC headsets I have tried with this one there is little if any difference in the music quality with ANC on or off.
Bluetooth Pairing, as with all Bluetooth 5 devices, was simple enough and achieved in the usual way by depressing the Multi-function/Power button for several seconds.
