A characteristic feature of the JBL T110 is the large diaphragm on the speakers, 8.6 mm. So you can expect good sound from these headphones, considering also the noise isolation that any "earplugs" provide. But users often refer to the playback of music from this device as a minus. The reasons for problems with the headset will be discussed below.
Design, practicality, ergonomics
The appearance of the headphones suits the modern youth quite well - the noodle wire does not get tangled in pockets, is not tied into a knot. There are three universal colors to choose from: white, black and blue. Blue headphones are written about the most by users.
Noting the depth of color, its durability and uniqueness. And the contrasting silicone ear cushions with an orange core look best in the "blue" version.
The cable connects to the transmitting devices with a standard 3.5mm mini-jack plug. The plug is attached to the wire in a non-standard way. It is not completely "straight" but it does not have the 90 degree angle like "L" shaped plugs do.
Rather, there is a certain curvature, which provides the convenience of fixing the plug when placing the phone and in the bag / backpack, and in the pockets of bushes, and the back pocket of jeans.
Users note that, unfortunately, this curvature doesn't always help keep the cable intact. Wires tear if you catch on them and pull, in the cold break the fragile internal connections. Therefore, the durability of the headphones is not worth counting on.
And also - the plug periodically randomly pops out of the socket, which significantly reduces the comfort of using the headset.
Symmetrical-wire headphones would be more comfortable if the remote was placed in the middle, rather than on the cable leading to the right earpiece.
Although some owners have noted the convenience of this location:
- the microphone is closer to the mouth, better hearing;
- Right-handed people quickly get used to operating the remote control;
- You can tell at a glance which earphone is right and which is left.
But there are some users who do not appreciate the right-hand location of the remote - it overbalances the cable, pulls the earphone out of your ear when you move it.
The problem is solvable - you can put different size ear cushions on the headphones to keep them firmly in your ears. And also to fix the cable clothespin (it is not included, have to "gut" the boxes with the old headphones).
But the kit has interchangeable small and large silicone ear cushions. Medium-sized earplugs are immediately put on the headphones.
The sizes are standard, suitable for people with different ear sizes. So we can say that the headphones are unisex - suitable for both female students and serious mature men. Some users note the stiffness of the silicone, so you have to get used to the ear cushions.
The remote control is small, streamlined shape, fits well in your hand. It has only one button - to control the microphone. It clicks easily, with a distinctive perceptible click. The remote control is durable, it does not tear wires, scratches on the smooth body appear rarely.
A significant drawback of the headset - there are no buttons to adjust the sound, you can decrease / increase the volume only on the transmitting device.
The work of the microphone
Nothing special about the microphone the owners of the headset do not note. The usual microphone, which has no active noise cancellation. To talk on it comfortably, it is better to go to a quiet place. On the street, the microphone captures ambient noise, which interferes with the conversation.
Audio playback
You can't expect great music from low-end headphones, no matter how much you want high quality for a low price. But the JBL T110 has quite normal sound, which is obtained thanks to the wide sound tube and tight earplugs.
Reviews about the quality of music playback are mostly positive:
- "For their price level, these are just great headphones. You can't hear the street sound at all, but it's still more comfortable to listen indoors. The mids are great to hear, the bass is well worked out, and the high frequencies don't squeal."
- "Bass is well balanced with the mids. There is no problem with the bass at all, all tracks are displayed perfectly. You can hear piano, guitar, violin. The main thing is to choose the right size of the ear cushions in the beginning. If they are small, they will let noise through, which impairs the playback of tunes."
- "Good tight bass. Lots of treble, the equalizer helps to get rid of excess. In the beginning the sound was flat, a little lacked detail, I adjusted everything myself on the phone. For that price it's okay.
- "Bright bass, but immediately sounded like a drum. I have to tinker with the equalizer, which is uncomfortable. But there is no extraneous noise and the volume is decent.
Of course, some people will say that they want to buy something and immediately use it with pleasure: listen to quality music without adjusting the playback frequencies. But then you should not buy a wired headset for 600 rubles, and full monitor headphones, such as Plantronics BackBeat PRO.

Conclusions
The JBL T110 headphones are good for everyday use. Despite the fragility of the wire and not quite comfortable plug, the device can be worn in a backpack and in a pocket. The headset is suitable for cyclists, joggers, students and office workers.
The music lovers might appreciate the juicy bass that the wide speakers provide, but they definitely won't be satisfied with the need to adjust the midrange and treble in the equalizer. If you are undemanding for a headset and prefer budget - you will like JBL T110.
