JBL Vibe 200 True Wireless Earbuds! How Were These $29?!

What's up TM Nation?! In this video, I provide you all with an unboxing and review of the JBL Vibe 200 true wireless earbuds! They retail for $49.99 but at the time that I picked my pair up, the black and white color options were on for $29.99. Sales come and go so make sure you check the link below for the most up-to-date pricing. These feature a charging case to charge the buds a few times for a total use of up to 20 hours, built-in mics for voice calls, Bluetooth 5.0, good sound quality, and all of your playback controls except volume. Taking everything into consideration, these provide solid performance, especially for the price. If you don't need ANC, a companion app, wireless charging, or some of the other features you will get with more expensive earbuds, these are a good entry-level pair to take a look at! Thanks for watching!

Dude, solid review quick and to the point, I have tired of the banter of some other reviewers. This is on point beginning to end, These buds are indeed a great value. These are brand new to me and I actually was searching for explainer video for the buttons as the quick start is info grams. They are super comfy in my ears, so comfy a bit worried they might slip out, time will tell.

[@DJ279V]

Interesting to see JBL getting into the budget-priced category. Great review as usual!!

[@mattr85]

Thank you for the great review!! I recently bought these on a whim online and started thinking maybe it wasn't the best choice but your review made me realize I made the right choice especially for such a great price!!

[@AAT745]

Really appreciate you, very clear and slowly explained, thank you so much.

[@itzzzzkai8407]

Truly amazing review you answered every one of my questions!

[@Xander_Park]

Just ordered the black ones from Amazon , great video 😎👊

[@searchingforknowledge]

Fantastic review style, thank you!

[@ericwardellwardell3997]

Thanks man I just ordered some, I’m looking forward to theme.

[@bostonman5992]

Good review TM, going to buy these.

[@SDOTSLIM718]

I just brought a pair today because I lost my Samsung earbuds and always losing them. I’m tired of paying $150 plus for earbuds. So I brought these JBL EARBUDS & I’m loving them! The sound surprised me and I didn’t regret buying them. I never owned any other earbuds but Samsung. I would definitely suggest them to friends and family on a budget! Thanks bro from NYC! 👍🏿👍🏿

[@yestrech]

Hi! Thinking to get one for my workouts at gym. Do they come off easily ?

[@zeusrabino]

be mindful of your things my friend samsung products cost money :).

[@Me-rg4zz]

How do you pair them dude

[@BebeesHuman]

Thanks for the information!

[@andywaldorf7718]

The best review. Thank you!

[@knate44]

I'm a big fan of JBLs, I can't wait until these bad boys they hit my stores. Been looking for a pair of earbuds I can throw in a bag and not worry.

[@ezmosey]

Thanks for this review my man 👌

[@Smoulderingmel]

Nice work. Thank you for review.re

[@baykay9559]

Hey man, great review! For a guy who has trouble with buds staying in (smaller ears) what’s your top recommendations? Greatly appreciated! 👍👍

[@Hammer_Studios]

Tribit c1 flybuds

[@xnspx9501]

Thanks for review just bought these for the price until i have the money to upgrade

[@gregkamer3754]

Since I just ordered a pair to replace a pair of Chinese knock offs I was happy to hear the good review. Besides the price point, the other purchase consideration was the fact these are JBL, a well known name and not some name I never heard of. I don't listen to music all that much I mainly brought these for watching KZbin videos without disturbing the whole house. So having to use my desk top to control the volume is not going to be a deal breaker for me.

[@dapumpy2846]

That’s why I’m getting these their just good

[@teckweilim3149]

Can anyone please explain about the led indicator ? What does blinking green light means ? How do I know the case is fully charged ? And how do I know the earbuds are charging and fully charged ? Thank you

[@RobertNES816]

JBL doesn't mention on their site about these being water resistant at all. They say the Vibe 100 and 300 are IPX2. Not sure why they didn't make the Vibe 200 water resistant? I own the Vibe 200 and have to say they are really nice for the money. They sound allot better then the no name brands I've purchased over the years and stay in my ears allot better. They're also nice and small.

[@miguelbojorquez6814]

What Skullcandy earbuds are they comparable to?

[@antichrist._]

How bad is the delay when watching videos?

[@peterwelsman1598]

How good are they using for phone calls? Is it muffled on the other end of the call ?

[@austinsaju]

Bro suggest any hard off bass earbuds man!!

[@princeedsonpalarca7836]

Is this okay for working out/Gym ? I sweat alot so ipx2 wont be enough. Can you recommend any good earbuds with similar price range usable for working out ? thanks!

[@matiasbondone8454]

how turn on without case ? i have one and after turn off i can't turn on without the case

[@bassfawks1673]

I got them yesterday . Love the sound but they kill my ears . Make them sore. I don't think buds are for me they make me feel like I am under some kind of pression chamber or something.

[@hildacolon8977]

This is my first time buying earbuds, so the price was great. My concern is charging. Can I leave them charging if I'm not using them. I'm trying to check this out on KZbin can't find the answer. Does anyone know I'm 70 and its a little hard for me to understand. The reason I got them is to use on a plane so I don't disturb others.

[@flying0possum]

They won't turn on unless I put them in the charger and back out 😭

[@nkosinathintuli7203]

How do I switch them off

[@cheekysod2]

Do these sound better than the samsung galaxy buds plus?

[@funnylife7585]

Does it work while riding a bike in windy air :|

[@Yugeneitor]

Do you know how do I have to turn them ON once i already paired them to my iphone? DO I always have to stick them into their little box in order to turn them ON?

[@idkmyname1424]

I'm confused? Once you put them in the box they get turned off and when you get them out they turn on automatically and if you paired them once before, you don't need to do it again because they get paired again by themselves

[@sreekanth9391]

Why not connect to jbl music app

[@corrosionblast]

interesting how the price here where I live is 100 dollars not 30....

[@hiramabiff5510]

Nice

[@KingLebron006]

would you recommend it for the gym or running?

[@michelcampbell4442]

No i run with it and always lost signal (BT)

[@JJ.ANDERSEN.201]

went to youtube, because I was hoping to find some type of "settings" to get that "deep bass," nope. I'm only disappointed just because JBL decided to market it with "deep bass" and it really isnt. Needless to say, this entry-level sounds like an entry-level. I have been using the TaoTronics ($39.99) since 2015 until I lost it recently. I thought this JBL would fit the bill.

[@brandonroberts2297]

Yeah there is literally 0 bass and no way to turn it up.. super disappointed

[@mohdyunus9185]

This very bass.?

[@Grretis]

My left earbud is charging, but it won’t turn on. What do I do?

[@Grretis]

I’ve also tried the “factory reset” that they show on the manual, but it won’t work.

[@Praneeth0_9]

Can...we...find... location...of...one...bud...if...lost...?.

[@toypreme3308]

do these have microphones?

[@igoski1582]

Yes they do.

[@luisespino6300]

My left is shot after a month only no wax or nothing smh

[@Me-rg4zz]

How do you pair it

[@telbertmarsh9765]

how you pair it

[@hack3r594]

I love KZbin prime

[@m.kultra4101]

I wear a headband when exercising anyway so we’ll see

[@danielmacias9793]

It cost doble in México

[@michelmacicame1165]

Dammnn

[@david-arthur8166]

In south africa as well

[@justpersoff]

it is jbl wave 200 tws...

[@TecHMoE]

The box at 0:07 clearly says Vibe 200.

[@justpersoff]

@@TecHMoE but it is the same with jbl 200 tws

[@igoski1582]

Just bought these and only used them for 1 day. The first time I listened to music, I immediately noticed I couldn't hear any bass. It was all treble. I pushed the buds in and held pressure on them and I could hear the bass just fine and it sounded good too. But as soon as I took my hands off, I lost the bass. Push them in, bass. Let the pressure off, no bass. I'm glad I did pay $49 for these. I think I'm going to return them and spend more money for better quality.

[@mrdhaydn53]

No bass to these at all sounds like a transistor radio, don’t buy
