Following the successful release of the JBL Tour Pro 2 earbuds, JBL has brought a new variation to CES 2024, the Live TWS 3 series with three design options: Buds, Beam, and Flex.
From Dave Rogers, President, HARMAN Lifestyle Division: “We always try to push boundaries when looking to upgrade JBL products, whether it be on the technology or the consumer experience. No detail is too small and with the newest upgrade to the JBL Live TWS series, we’ve taken it to another level,…The smart case is just one of many exciting changes to the line and we can’t wait for consumers to get a more accessible and pure sound experience.”
Core Features
The core feature of the Live TWS 3 series is the new Smart Charging Case. This case not only charges the earbuds but also allows control of smartphones without physically grabbing the phone. This means that through the case, users can check text messages, incoming calls and other features using the charger’s 1.45-inch LED Touchscreen instead of their phone. As long as the phone is on and the case is linked to the phone you can leave it in your pocket.
The Live TWS 3 series also includes wireless Hi-Res Audio and JBL Signature Sound as well as Bluetooth 5.3 with LE audio.
The Live TWS 3 Series earbuds also incorporate True Adaptive Noise Cancelling. In addition, users can optimize their audio experience with the Ear Canal Test in the dedicated JBL Headphones app.
