The latest JBL Tour wireless headphones are here to deliver incredible sound and a host of advanced features that will challenge some of the best headphones on the market. The JBL Tour Pro 2 are premium in-ear earphones with one of the cleverest case designs on the market, allowing you to control your music without touching your phone. The JBL Tour One M2 are a top-notch pair of over-ear headphones with True Adaptive Noise Cancelling to keep you focused on the music. 

Both sets of headphones offer JBL’s legendary pro sound performance with True Adaptive Noise Cancelling and Immersive Spatial Sound included. So whether you prefer the in-ear or over-ear experience, there’s a model to suit you – and for a great price. The Tour One M2 and Tour Pro 2 are both available from Currys right now for £279 and £249.99 respectively. 

These headphones can do more than deliver great sound quality though. Both pairs feature the latest Bluetooth 5.3 connection to ensure they are easily paired with your phone, tablet or gaming device. They feature high-quality microphones for voice calls and hands-free voice control with Amazon Alexa or Google Voice Assistant connectivity.

We’ve seen a lot of great charging cases for true wireless earphones, but this case is something truly special. It features its own touchscreen display that allows you to control a wide range of features directly from the case. 

You can adjust the sound profile to match your audio – whether it’s music, movies or games. Enable the auto play and pause mode, get message alerts, accept and reject phone calls, and even activate the SilentNow mode to take a nap, all without having to touch your phone. 

That case also provides you with three extra charges for your earbuds, meaning you can get up to 40 hours of playback. The case charges fast too, with just 15 minutes of fast charge giving you another four hours of listening time.  

The True Adaptive Noise Cancelling uses four microphones to adjust the performance to your surroundings. If you want to hear what’s going on, the Personal Sound Amplification allows you to mix the surroundings back in, for when you need to stay alert. 

For voice calls, the Tour Pro 2 uses six microphones to isolate your voice and ensure that the person on the other end hears you clearly. It also helps make sure that you can wake your voice assistant with a simple ‘Hey Alexa’ or ‘Hey Google’, wherever you are. 

For sound performance, the earbuds use 10mm dynamic drivers and feature Immersive JBL Spatial Sound. This proprietary technology allows you to feel right there with your audio, having elements of the track appear to come from all around you. 

The Tour Pro 2 earphones are exclusively available in black from Currys for £249.99.

Those that prefer an over-ear pair of headphones are exceptionally catered for with the Tour One M2. Like the Tour Pro 2, they feature Adaptive Noise Cancelling, with four noise-sensing mics to adapt to the surroundings and leave you with uninterrupted sound. And for times when you want to tune in to your surroundings, you can just turn on the Personal Sound Amplification mode to boost the ambient nose again, with fine adjustments through the app to set the mix. 

The Smart Talk feature will automatically pause your music when it senses you talking, meaning that you don’t need to take off your headphones for a quick chat. For voice calls, the Tour One M2 uses four microphones to isolate your voice and make that call crystal clear. 

The 40mm drivers deliver that powerful sound experience, with full EQ control through the app and even a dedicated low volume dynamic EQ mode to still provide a rich sound experience when listening quietly. 

Even if you’re taking a long trip, the Tour One M2 has you covered for battery life, with up to 50 hours of playback in a single charge – or 30 hours with ANC mode enabled. That’s weeks of commuting or multiple long-haul flights without having to recharge. And when you do, just a 10-minute charge will add another 10 hours to your playback time. 

The JBL Tour One M2 headphones are available in black or champagne colours from Currys for £279
