Wired On-Ear Headphones with 32 mm Drivers

The JBL Tune 500 is a wired on-ear headphone set finished in black. It uses 32 millimetre drivers to deliver JBL Pure Bass sound for music and media playback. A single-button inline remote handles play, pause, calls and voice-assistant access for Siri or Google Now. The flat cable resists tangles and the lightweight frame folds for easy transport.

Check Device Port and Fit Preference

Verify that your source device provides a 3.5 mm headphone jack before ordering. The on-ear design rests on the ears rather than enclosing them, so listeners who prefer over-ear cups or active noise cancellation should consider a different style. No battery or charging is required because the headphones draw power directly from the connected device.

Fits Daily Commute and Desk Use

The foldable construction reduces bulk in a bag while the .33 pound weight keeps long sessions comfortable. A 3.5 mm plug connects instantly to phones, laptops or tablets without pairing steps. The inline microphone supports clear calls and voice commands, freeing you from reaching for the device during meetings or while on the move.
