JBL Tour One M3 review: The most advanced headphones you can buy

With an insane amount of features and awesome performance, the Tour One M3 are the cure for audio FOMO.

Light and comfy ; Great sound ; Very good ANC/transparency ; Best-in-class call quality ; Analog/digital wired connections ; Included Auracast transmitter

Somewhat dated design ; You may not need the transmitter ; Limited control customization

Best Noise-Canceling Headphones I've Tested for 2026

JBL's new flagship noise-canceling headphones, the Tour One M3 Smart Tx, are a nice step up from the company's earlier Tour One M3. Not only are the more comfortable (they weigh 278 grams and have an upgraded ear cup design), but they feature better...

nicely designed; very good performance overall; JBL Smart Tx audio transmitter is a distinguishing feature; improved comfort; better noise cancellation; slightly improved sound quality; good voice-calling performance; JBL Spatial Sound with head...

sound and noise canceling doesn't rise above the competition in this price range; need to cost $50-$100 less

JBL Tour One M3 Review: Great Noise-Canceling Headphones

JBL's top wireless headphones match powerful noise canceling with tons of extras.

Fantastic noise canceling and call quality. Luxe comfort for hours of wear. Loads of standard and next-gen features. Slick and clear sound with great instrumental separation. Tight and musical bass. Stylish and compact case. Built-in DAC for hi-res...

Expensive. Smart transmitter has limited use cases. Touch controls aren’t as polished as Sony's. Design feels less posh than some competitors.

I tested JBL's newest premium headphones - Bose and Sony should watch out

The JBL Tour One M3 are the latest generation of the company's flagship headphones, and they pose stiff competition for the big dogs of the industry.

The JBL Tour One M3 are a superb pair of reliable, everyday headphones. They promise up to 70 hours of use, provide endless personalization options, and deliver practical use in everyday situations, like commuting or working. The M3's predecessor was...

I discovered these noise-cancelling over-ear headphones' clever party piece, but it'll cost you...

The JBL Tour One M3 attempt to dominate the premium(ish) wireless headphone market with an optional-extra transmitter, but price is a problem

Punchy, assertive and detailed sound ; Effective noise-cancellation ; Impressively thorough and useful control app ; Optional ‘Smart Tx’ transmitter could be just the ticket

Lack composure when playing at volume ; Some latent treble trouble ; Perceived value isn’t all it might be ; Competing against some excellent alternatives

A spirited and vigorous listen in the right circumstances, with both great noise-cancelling and a very persuasive USP, but the JBL Tour One M3 also need a little more refinement to crash the top table.
