My friend recommended these to me, but after watching this review and another one on the Arctic 1 Steel Series, I'm gonna go for the latter for only $47. It has great reviews too! Thanks for an awesome video.
Honestly these are very impressive. I found some at my local Burlington store for $20. I was skeptical at first, but JBL is a reputable brand that can be trusted very well. Very light. Comfortable. Loud-ish, and Clear.
Unknown Beast that’s true but I found him because of headset reviewed his review on the HyperX Cloud Flights was so convincing now my mum said she can get them for me if she has enough money!
Earned a new sub today, i rly fell in love with these when i saw the blue ones cause i loved the look, tho i ended up buying the white cause i wnared something unusual lol. Thank you for making me choose. The mic review really helped me
I just bought these in blue, and I saw this. I also got a 3 year warranty in case I’m glad they are this good, it hasn’t come yet but I’m happy I stumbled upon this vid great explanation!!
Got these at ross for like 17.99 usd. Great for the price and i like that it has swivels. Active in CoD and have no problem hearing footsteps and no complaints from my teammates of the mic. Like he said, is the sound the best? No. But it does what you need it to. If you find them cheap get them because they are great value. Great review 👍
Hey my guy :) Did you already got the headset? If yes can you tell me how it is talking with Friends and things I‘d be happy if you could answer me thanks
Finally! I have been waiting for someone to start reviewing the new JBL’s. Thank you Techne 👍🏿awesome review. I would like to request a review of the Quantum 800. I’m a console player (Xbox & PS4) and I’m really hoping I can use these for both my systems instead of 2 different headsets. I have a few questions; What functions do you lose when using w/the consoles? Does surround sound & noise cancellation work on consoles? Can you put multiple sound setting profiles on the headset via PC/Mac to use while on the console? Does RGB lighting still work while on console? Thank you Techne 🙏🏿keep up the good work
Console does not get the advantages of using them on pc. They do sound amazing though. I dont think you'd be disappointed with a headset from this line. I got the 400s and they are really good on ps4 and even better on pc. Unfortunately none of these have memory to hold profiles. But seriously if your thinking about this line you wont be disappointed. 400s get all the goods for 100 bucks and is not wireless. As long as you're using the usb connection you'll get rgb.
Hey man,i got question and i hope i can get reply,whifh headset is better for gaming asus tuf h3 or jbl quantum 100,and how they perform in noise isolation?
I just ordered it so I can game with friends, and so I can have a more immersive experience on vr. Great review man, thi headset looks like a great budget headset with an actually good mic!
@@eissajr5873 yes they are good for gaming and I am able to hear much detail! He describes them well in the video. The headband feels like its made of cheap plastic but other than that they are a great buy! Comfortable and easy to adjust both the headband and mic thay is detachable and mutable, which i find as a huge perk👍
Are these worth it for music listening and some casual gaming or I'm I better off buying something like Skullcandy? I mainly listen to rock, hip-hop, and edm.
Dude that is one sweet mic. Kinda worried about the ear cushions falling apart, since I got the JBL Synchros s300 at it seems like that's the same material. That "leather" fell apart after a year or so And I see, you worked on your lighting! (Did you?) Looks a lot better now!
Hello,thanks for the review mr.Techne,im with an older PC and i saw few other reviews because i was not sure about this problem-People say if you are on PC(or older laptop) you need splitter to use the mic,is that really a thing?
Need your opinion wether to get the Cloud Stinger or the Quantum 100, I can get both of them with the same price... Just wondering which is better for you.. 🤔
Great review! Should i get these or the philips shp9500? The problem i have with the philips one is fhe absence of a mic and from where i live, i cant get the vmoda boom pros. Also, the price difference!
hey man.first of all i like your reviews... secondly... I'm seriously considering buying this headphone so can you please tell me one thing... which headset is better? the jbl quantum 100s or the hyperx cloud stinger because in my country both are the same price and I wanted to know if this is better than the hyperx cloud stinger or if the cloud stinger is better.
Hii, i would like to know if this is great compared to blackshark v2 x? This is a lot cheaper and ive watched your review on it but im looking to buy something cheaper. Is it worth it to go for this or should i save up for the blackshark? How about the razer kraken x? Could you help me out!!? Thank youu
Ok, you're the man to know this question I hope! lol PS4 headset with game/chat balance that actually works! GO! I was so close to buying the arctis 7 (2019 edition) but found out the game/chat volume balance dont work for PS4. Thanks!
I can say i have the same problem with static while listening to music, but if you don't plan on mainly listening to music with these, gaming is pretty good
Hi thanks for your headset reviews, can I ask in your opinion which you thinks better steel series artic pro or turtle beach pro 2? I'm a ps4 gamer and play lots of COD thanks in advance
Hey Techne! I'm a big fan of your vids. =) I just have a quick question. What do you think is the best sub 50 dollar headset right now based from the products that you have reviewed?
this is my headset right now and im loving it :) as long as you're careful it's sturdy enough. just dont get this for children and teens who rage at their games lol.
Hey! Thinking of buying this rn and am quite worried about the durability of these headsets, given that the 200 received a lot of complaints. How are you headphones holding up after 2 months of use? Any cracks/signs something will fall apart soon?
@@eeuunnlol Man, it's worrying why so many people complain about the durability, yet, so many more don't lol. It seems like they may have some defective pieces going around.
@@RexGalilae i feel like those who complain about it simply don't handle their items carefully enough. my sister also got a quantum 100 recently after i told her about it and she has no complaints! it's pretty light and i can wear it for hours for work + gaming 😉
Since you wear glasses (which looks like mine), I need to ask you. Do you feel it hurting after playing for a big amount of time? If yes, how long until the pain the shows up?
Great video i really love 'em and they are pretty stinking AWESOME but i have a question would u recommend the Hyperx Stinger over this becuz the hyperx is better over all like in sound and mic or just the build in hyperx is better but this is better overall ?
@@vohge thanks for replying! ... i got the stingers for low price in my country and i actually liking it . like the mic is great, and the sound.. the sound is good too not the b est ofc its only 50$ uk but its pretty good actually for the price . i may soon upgrade for steelseries or Sennheiser .. but for now i'll stick with the stingers =))
After about a month mines started to crack on the part that connects the headphone to the headband. Eventually it chipped and then broke off completely. This happened to both sides of my headphones. I now have tape holding it in place. I take good care of my headphones and have had 25 dollar headphones last me years. This broke on it's own in the course of about 3 to 5 months. Which is an extremely small life span for 40 dollar headphones. I believe it's because of the cheap plastic holding the thing together. Not only that but the two pins make that plastic even weaker by creating 2 weak spot that are extremely prone to cracking from even the most gentle use. I wrote a review on Amazon showing images of the spot were it cracked. I'm not alone and have seen many more people experiencing the same crack and breakage in the same exact spot. Even the way it chipped looks exactly the same. I was better off getting a 25 dollar gaming headset.
@@AyoEndvyy if your going for a cheaper option I would recommend the BENGOO G9000 for about 30 to 40 bucks. I had it for 2 year and broke it on accident. I could of easily had it for way longer. Id say up to 5 years. They're very sturdy, the mic quality is pretty damn good for the price and its really comfy. It can connect to console or a PC. Personally I think there far way superior than these JBL headphones. If your willing to spend about 100 bucks I would recommend the turtle beach 500 or 600 or 700. I had the 700 a while back and I really enjoyed them because I could connect to my console and connect to my phone via bluetooth. Meaning I could play games and hear music or youtube videos at the same time. For 80 bucks + tax and shipping you'll probably snag it for about 100 on amazon. Just make sure you get the ones that are made for your console. It should specify ps4 (blue color) or xbox (green color) Note: the mic isnt very strong and can break, so make sure after every play section you place your headphones in a safe spot. Other than that, they are very good headphones for the price.
Finally i been looking for same comment.i been going threw samething to. Dosent last long I bought 2 of same brand. samething on the 2nd headset cracks on the sides. thinking about finding a better brand of a headset instead of jbl.
Budget PC is just not necessarry, you can find it all over on RU-vid... very great vids also exist on that topic. However, a budget Peripherals can be a fresh idea.
Hello there, I love how make those videos, can you make a review of the Ozone Rage X40 7.1? I can't find any review on the youtube, so one by you would be amazing :D Keep it up with those videos
Great Video Techne I have a question and I hope you could help me out, I need to buy a good gaming headset with good bass also for music and Movies I'm thinking to get the Razer Kraken X Tournament Edition. Do you think in this price tag there is a better one or?? If you may giving me 3 options by ordering the best of them
@@TheTechne I just watched the video its great but it didn't include the new Kraken X tournament edition or there is no difference between this and the old one? Another tech question if I go for the JBL 500BT it will be horrible for gaming or it will be a mediocre thing or its a horrible idea :D?
I watched durability videos of the CoolerMaster MH630 and it was baaaaaad. they said the cuild quality decreased and the headphones came a little loose. when it comss to build quality, are these better or the coolermaster?
Is this compatible with PC? I mean I saw an unboxing that this only comes with 1 3.5mm jack without a splitter to able to connect this on PC as a mic and headset.
Hi thank you for the review. I purchased this JBL Quantum 100. How do i get the microphone working? Because i try just to test the mic in steam it is not detected and not working. Please advise thank you and looking forward to your reply.
