JBL Live Pro 2 VS JBL Tune 230NC TWS | Which one should you get?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2024
- The JBL Live Pro 2 and the JBL Tune 230 are two of the earbuds I reviewed last year, and after a few requests, I decided to put them side by side and see the differences between them to help you all make the right choice.
The Live Pro 2 retails at $150 and is often on sale for under $100. The Tune 230 retail at $100 but is often on sale for under $80! Both have great features like noise cancellation, ambient awareness (aka transparency mode), and 40+ hours of battery life with their cases. But what really set's them apart, in my opinion, besides form factor and design, are the features of in-ear detection and multipoint connection of the Live Pro 2s.
Though that may not be a difference maker for some users, if their prices are close together, I think the Live Pro 2 is the better option. I go into a bit more depth as to why in the video, so I hope that may help you make the decision that is best for you. If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comments!

super insightful video - thank you!
Glad to help!
Thank you for this very specific review. Found it while searching the difference between the two. I lost my 230 housing yesterday and was considering to buy just the casing because I still have the earbuds but I wanted a better one, the live pro 2 sounds a great deal. Very detailed review. Thanks!
Glad you found this helpful! Hope you enjoy which ever you decide to get!
LOL the exact same thing happened with my elder brother and now he's also buying live pro 2. Just conflicted if it's worth the money..
@@arvindraghavan403oh no! I mean if he enjoyed the 230s I think he'll enjoy the live pro 2 for sure!
@@arvindraghavan403me too😂😂😂
Thank you for the great review, i had the live pro+ but it broke. So im gonna get the live pro 2 i think!
You’re welcome! Glad to help! I think you’ll love those!
Thanks for the video bro just bought live pro 2
You’re welcome! Hope they serve you well
Hey dude! I'm from Brazil and on RUclips BR there are simply no comparative videos between the two! Here the 230NC costs R$500, while the Live Pro 2 costs R$900, this is equivalent to 40% and 70% of the minimum wage respectively, it's really depressing... But you helped me a lot in my choice, I have a Wave Buds and I want to level up but for 70% of the minimum wage, for now I will opt for 230NC!! Thank u so much!!
Glad this helped you out! and thanks for sharing that price difference between that two! Its helpful to know how they price things differently in other countries. I hope you enjoy the Tune 230s!
The live pro 2 was a winner for me when you mentioned the weight of each bud. They are half the weight of the cheaper earbuds with bigger drivers and more mics
Definitely a great selling point between these two!
very informative vids! been thinking about getting the live pro 2, but seeing as it launched about a year ago, any chance a live pro 3 comes soon? or should i just go ahead with getting the live pro 2
Glad you enjoyed this video! I don’t think JBL updates their head phones that often! They’re focus this year has been on the JBL Tour Pro 2 which is their latest but also their most expensive earbuds. Check those out if you’re interested. I’m working on a review of them right now. That said the live pro 2 are just perfect for its price and performance
A question. Do the eartips on the 230NC fit the Live Pro 2? I want some eartips that are little deeper than original but I am afraid they dont fit the case.
Thanks.
For the live pro 2, you can turn on the buds even if you forget your charging case at home? That's something I didn't like from the 230 NC, that you could only turn them on by putting them back in the case.
Thats a great question and honestly unsure, I havent found myself in that situation before but I'll give it a try out and let you know in a week or so.
I have the 230, they are very good, nice solid sound, and you can use the app to EQ them. Only issue is if you use large foam tips the earphones won’t fit back in the charging case, so you have to take them off for charging!
Oh man! Love using foam tips! I didn’t try them on these but I did on the Live pro 2 and didn’t have an issue with the case
Not
I use high end headphones when I can but I was looking for earbuds for stuff like quick walks and calls, so these seemed like the best options. Definitely going for the Live Pro 2s though, half the weight with better drivers/bass, better NC and better mic? And for me only a 20€ difference right now
I hope you enjoy them!
I own the JBL 230 since two Years now so I really appreciate them! They really did a good Job and they still do. They work and they are fine, so happy that I shopped them, then. But now sadly one side lacks in charging and I need to figure out what my next ones will be. I'm a little unsure but I think If I liked the 230 so much, what I really did and still do, I will be very happy with the Live Pro 2. If somebody has another input for it or something, please let me know. But I think I'm curious about trying the Pro 2, but still keep my half, but still good working 230 ones for some times, well see. Hopefully a good choice like the 230's back then!
Hello! Im an owner of the 230nc and was thinking to airpod pros 2nd gen. Would that be a good upgrade or it isnt worth it?
I'm a huge fan of the airpods pro 2nd gen, as an apple user with multiple apple products, I really get to experience all of the benefits. So if that's you I think you'd feel the same! If anything the Live Pro 2 are such a good alternative that I sometimes choose those over my airpods depending on the day.
Both on sale on Amazon right now. 230 for $50 and Pro for $75.
Good afternoon Which headphones are better to choose - JBL Tune 230NC TWS or
JBL Live Pro 2 TWS?
JBL live pro 2 would be my pick.
@@ardentlytechThanks 🙂
Thank you, but can I use the JBL headphones with only one side, right or left, and control the properties, or is there only one main side?
Since I own an old version of JBL + Sony, and they only have one main side
Yeah you can use either earbud alone. JBL calls that "dual connect." hope that helps!
I just got a pair of tune 230s for 40 bucks during Amazon's prime day sale, do u think theres any eq settings that could make them sound more similar to the live pro 2s?
Maybe? I’m not confident that the 6mm drivers can get to the same sound as the live pro 2’s 11mm drivers, but the sound is still really good from the Tune 230!
@@ardentlytech thank you, im looking forward to using them
For me they are both on sale right now with 33 euros diffrence (The Tune 230NC for 55 euros and the Live Pro 2 TWS for 88 euros) And i just ordered a new phone with out a jack for headset earbuds i already have the JBL Live 660 NC headphone but just having some earbuds in your pcoket can be so handy!
Great prices for both! Hope you enjoy whichever you decide to go with! My suggestion would be the live pro 2!
@@ardentlytech Oke yeah i am probbaly gonna order the live pro 2 thx for the reaction!
Glad to help!
You said I should get the live pro 2 but it's a bit expensive for me. Even a used pair can go for 130 or more😢 and unfortunately I only really have around 80$ for something like this.
Sorry to hear! I know depending on your country they usually will go on sale for much less and a little closer to your 80 budget. Otherwise you’ll still enjoy the tune 230s! Or even the Live Pro+
@@ardentlytech ok. But what about recommendations for a pair that has a very good anc, decently good audio and minimal noise bleed. I have a major issue with earphones/headphones that have a lot of noise bleed even brand new. It might just me my poor choice but I just want to listen to my music at a decently high volume without others hearing. I might just be being to picky though
I feel you 😢
I think I will switched from apple AirPod to jbl live pro 2, do you think is a good choice?
Yeah I think these would be a good switch!
In India price diff is double.. But thanks for ur review, this helps to choose.
Wow that’s crazy! Glad you still found it helpful!
@@ardentlytech Exactly, considering the double price difference, would you still suggest the Live Pro 2?
@@DhruvGN8 Great question. It's hard to say, but I think it would depend on the price difference between the Live Pro 2 and the AirPods Pro 2nd gen. I believe the Live Pro 2 are a great competitor to the AirPods Pro, so if they are significantly cheaper than those, then I think the price of the Live Pro 2 would be worth it despite it being double from the Tune 230. But if that doesn't matter to you or if that price is just too much to spend on earbuds, then I think you'll enjoy the Tune 230s just fine as well. I hope that is somewhat helpful!
Thanks that does help, although I'm not the one paying for them, I still want to be responsible with the money. The Pro 2 is for 11000 here while the 230NC is for 6000, to answer that. I'd also like to say that your videos are just so well made and props to you for your efforts.
I forgot to mention about the airpods, but I'm not an Apple user and have no experience with the airpods. The airpods 2 are for 12000 here
I would get the live pro 2's but in Canada there $200 while the Tune 230NC's are $75
Wow😮 that’s crazy to see the way these products vary in price from country to country
Jbl tune 230 tws or Huawei free buds 5i ?
Sorry I Vs e t tried the Huawei free buds. Personally, purely off of aesthetic I’d go with the Tune 230s 😅 but that’s not a solid decision lol
🤤
T230nc is good for the price but 6mm driver lacks something it should be 9 mm at least.
Yeah definitely understand that!
Jbl tune 230nc tws or jbl tune flex nc tws ? Which is better
I haven’t tried the tune flex nc but I think the tune 230s are better!
I had the 230, and for a while it was great, no problems whatsoever. But eventually after a few drops, they started to die out, get quieter and quieter, like one earbud had more sound that the other, etc. I don't use them anymore because of that. Something that really bothers me about the live pro though is the case itself. It's an ugly style and the clam shell lid doesn't look like it stays open properly, like it's very flimsy.
yeah I agree the case of the Live Pro 2 is also my biggest gripe with them. Otherwise a great earbud! Also, sorry to hear about your issues with the tune 230s!
@@ardentlytech did you have similar problems with the 230s after a while? Or is it just me being clumsy
@@frozen_penquin9175 honestly I didn’t not keep these for longer than 2 months I ended up giving them to a friend and not sure if he’s had similar issues. But in my 2 months I did not.
Yea so even if live pro 2 is better... the cost difference here in india is basically 75 dollars and 150 dollars... so double the price... i would say tune 230 is better for the price here
Yeah absolutely price is definitely a major factor. With that price breakdown in India, I 100% agree with you!
Prices are always less then actual prices
Hi
👋
Cant lie I was out on 6mm drivers
Totally valid!
one thing reviewer do review are either based on scientific test or phone call or traffic noise or fan blowing for ANC which strongly believe not very accurate. i would like to debunked Live pro 2 ANC - i live in thailand & my daily commute required me to take a river ferry which extremely loud boat engine & most of times am forced to stand very near to the boat engine & Live pro 2 ANC reduces the engine noise to a slight humming of the engine yes it's still audible but i can definitely watch an avengers movie with all the boom bang going around clearly. tried the apple airpod & samsung too but live pro 2 is much better. real life experience!
😅
