Reviewer score 2%
Reviewers from rtings have found the following***:
The JBL Tune 225TWS are disappointing for neutral sound. While their mid and treble ranges are quite well balanced, their sound profile is lacking substantially in bass. They're a poor fit for genres like EDM and hip-hop. Their continuous battery life is also somewhat short, so you may need to charge them during longer trips.

Pros
  • Lightweight and stable fit
  • Very good noise isolation performance
  • Decent audio delivery
  • Stable fit.
Cons
  • No sound customization features
  • Short continuous battery life
  • No on-board volume controls

Reviewers from techradar have found the following***:
The JBL Tune 225TWS are available now with a list price of $99.95 / £99.99 / AU$179.95. They're available in a range of color options: blue, gray, white, black, pink and gold. Each bud has a thin button at the top of the stalk, with different combinations accessed via the left and right buds. There's no IP water-resistance rating, so there's no guarantee they'll withstand a sweaty workout.

Pros
  • Sleek and well-constructed design
