JBL expands line-up of smart charging case earphones and ramps up portable audio range

Popular audio brand JBL has expanded its range of smart charging case earphones with the new Live 3 series and its portable speaker range to enjoy quality audio on the go.

JBL introduced its first smart charging case with the JBL Tour Pro 2 and have now brought that technology to even more customers at more affordable price points with the JBL Live 3 Series.

The smart charging case has a 1.45-inch LED touch display which allows users to access the features and modes and control playback without having to touch their mobile device.

They all include True Adaptive Noise Cancellation which can be optimised with the ear canal test in the JBL headphones companion app to provide a more personalised sound experience you can enjoy in any environment.

“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,” said Marcus Fry, General Manager, HARMAN Lifestyle Division AUNZ.

“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.”

As usual, JBL is offering three different wearing styles Buds, Beam and Flex in the JBL Live 3 Series which gives customers the assurance of comfort and flexibility.
