Boasting massive bass, the JBL Reflect Mini NC are also well-priced and feature-heavy, making them an ideal set of workout companions. If JBL could fix the awkward and limiting control schemes, they’d be just about perfect.
As a pair of workout buds, the Reflect Mini NC will give you most of what you might be asking for. It has a tight, hard-hitting sound signature with efficient noise-canceling and responsive controls. The level of quality here is rather standard for JBL at this price range, so if it sounds like it’s up your alley you’ll definitely enjoy it.
JBL’s Reflect Mini NC aim to offer a high level of customisable functionality when used as versatile True Wireless headphones for sports, everyday use and travel. This is currently still limited by the app (as of early December), particularly with regard to noise cancellation, so we await an update. However, good sound with powerful bass reproduction is offered and these weatherproof in-ears score points with a comfortable, stable fit, long-lasting batteries and precise touch control. The Ambient Aware and Talkthru modes are also successful, as is the integration of Google Assistant.
While Ambient Aware works okay, the active noise-cancelling isn’t worth mentioning. It barely makes any difference, even struggling to reduce lower frequencies.

The JBL Reflect Mini NC are great sporty wireless earbuds if you want dynamic audio and noise cancellation in a damage-proof package.

The waterproof JBL Reflect Mini NC TWS are seriously bass-boosted true wireless earphones that offer uninspiring active noise cancellation.
