Noise-Cancelling Headphones & Headsets

Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones

On-ear and over-ear headphones built for the long haul. Adaptive Active Noise Cancelling that shifts with your surroundings (from airplane to office to street), blocking out what doesn't matter. Plush cushions and lightweight frames that vanish during marathon listening sessions, while JBL’s signature sound delivers the concert straight to you. Battery life that lasts days, not hours. Because your music shouldn't wait for a charge.

Noise Cancelling Headsets for Gaming & Calls

Built for dual-duty performance. JBL's noise-cancelling headsets excel whether you're locked into an intense gaming session or running back-to-back video calls. Echo and noise suppression technology captures every callout and strategy, so your squad hears you loud and clear without sounding muffled. The play and charge feature keeps the power flowing through marathon sessions and our low-latency wireless system ensures your audio stays perfectly synced with the action on screen or locked in with every word in your calls.

Why Choose JBL Noise Cancelling Headphones

Ultimate Comfort for Long Listening Sessions

Crafted with lightweight engineering that will have you forgetting that you're wearing them, every pair, on-ear or over-ear is built for hours, not minutes. Featuring foam ear cups so plush they feel custom-moulded to your ears, to adjustable headbands that distribute weight evenly across your head, JBL’s noise-cancelling headphones stay comfortable through back-to-back albums, full workdays, or overnight flights. Keep them on as long as you want — until you’re ready to let the world rush back in.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) Technology

The star of our noise-cancelling lineup. Working through tiny microphones built into the headphones, they continuously monitor ambient sound around and generate an opposing sound wave that cancels out the noise before it reaches your ears.

While passive noise cancelling simply blocks sound physically, active noise cancelling in-ear headphones eliminate it electronically, leaving you with pure audio isolation. On a plane, in a busy café, or at home with the TV blaring next door, JBL's adaptive ANC reads your environment and adjusts automatically.

Wireless & Bluetooth Connectivity

Cut the cord and move freely. Featuring Bluetooth connectivity that pairs seamlessly with your phone, laptop, or tablet, our headphones eliminate the hassle of wires tangling in your bag or catching on doorknobs. Voice assistant integration puts hands-free control at your command, so you can manage your music, answer calls, or control your smart home all without reaching for your device. Whether you're streaming from Spotify or taking calls on the move, our wireless noise-cancelling earpieces keep you connected without keeping you tied down.

Extended Battery Life & Fast Charging

Power that keeps pace. JBL's noise-cancelling headphones deliver enough playtime for multiple long-haul flights or weeks of daily commutes with many models featuring fast charging that gives you additional hours of playback from just 5 minutes of being plugged in. Your JBL wireless headphones are ready when you are, so you can stop worrying and lose yourself in the music.

Frequently Asked Questions About JBL Noise-Cancelling Headphones

How does active noise cancelling work in JBL headphones?

Tiny microphones built into your JBL active noise cancellation earphones pick up ambient sounds and generate an opposing sound wave that cancels them out before they reach your ears. This leaves you with blissful silence or just the pure sound of your music — no airplane cabin roar, no traffic hum, no office distractions. It's electronic noise elimination that adapts to your environment in real-time.

What is the battery life of JBL noise-cancelling headphones?

Battery life varies by model. The JBL Tour One M3 and Tune 770NC both deliver up to 70 hours with ANC on, while the Live 770NC provides 65 hours. The Quantum 910 Wireless offers 39 hours with all features active, but every model includes fast charging, so you'll spend more time listening and less time tethered to a wall outlet.

Are JBL noise-cancelling headphones good for sleeping or travel?

Absolutely. JBL’s over-ear noise-cancelling headphones excel at blocking airplane cabin noise, train sounds, and hotel room disturbances. Soft cushions stay comfortable through long flights or overnight wear, while adaptive ANC adjusts to changing environments. The lightweight design won't cause pressure points during extended use, making them ideal travel companions for long-haul journeys.

Can I use JBL noise-cancelling headphones with my phone or laptop?

Yes. All JBL Bluetooth noise-cancelling headphones pair wirelessly with smartphones, tablets, and laptops. Many of our models support multi-device connection, letting you switch seamlessly between your phone and computer. They also work wired using the included cable when you need to conserve battery or connect to devices without Bluetooth capability.

Do JBL headphones come with a microphone?

Yes. JBL’s noise-cancelling headphones and earphones come with a built-in microphone for hands-free calls and voice assistant access. Our wireless headset models include adjustable boom mics for enhanced clarity during gaming or work calls. The microphone system uses noise reduction to keep your voice clear even in busy environments, so you're always heard properly.
