Even though these buds dont deliver stellar sound, you still get fairly solid bass and a pleasing treble.
And given their ultra-low price, they can be forgiven for some sonic imperfections.
But this isn’t the case here.
Ill be upfront: youre not going to get stunning sound quality out of the JBL Tune 310C.
Despite that, I wouldnt say the JBL Tune 310C are an unpleasant-sounding pair of in-ears.
However, given their price, Id still argue that the JBL Tune 310C offer adequate audio.
And they do all sound unique, which is a big plus point in my view.
Having said that, I did mostly find myself sticking with Default.
Is this super effective?
I could still hear the odd nugget of speech when listening at around 50% volume.
Nevertheless, it did dull excess noise the sound of colleagues typing, for example.
And far more effectively than the Tune 305C can.
One final feature worth mentioning is the JBL Tune 310Cs built-in mic and controller.
And the built-in mic is surprisingly good, too.
In terms of looks, these wired earbuds are pretty middle of the road.
The buds also arrive in some neat color options, including black, blue, red and white.
In my view, there are only a couple of hold-ups in terms of design.
First, I experienced quite a lot of cable noise when on-the-go.
Otherwise, though, I was pleased with what the Tune 310C could provide.
Theyre pretty comfortable in-ear and arent too hefty, meaning they wont slip out all too easily.
So, if youre looking for some cheap, feature-rich earbuds, then these JBL buds are worth considering.
Plus theSkullcandy Set USB-Care a decent alternative, if you want some waterproof buds.
The latter are a looser-fitting variant more akin to theAppleEarPods.
That price is typically the same regardless of the color option you pick.
For reference, these are available in black, blue, red and white.
3.5/5
Design
Nice colors, wire isnt the prettiest, but tangle-resistant, no waterproofing.
Value
Decent sound, lots of features and a comfortable fit, all for a very low price.
Oh, go on then.
Youre into bass-heavy bangersConsidering the cost, I found the JBL Tune 310C offered impressively impactful bass.
If you enjoy tracks with imposing low-end power, you won’t go far wrong with the Tune 310C.
Bass output is powerful for the price, but can get a little muddy.
Vocals arent beautifully natural, and finer sonic details sometimes remain under wraps.
Sure, they sound solid for the price, but these certainly arent audiophile-grade.
Theyre also comfortable in the ear and block out external noise fairly well.
There really is a lot to love about the E80D, but dont just take my word for it.

Apple EarPods USB-CWant something a bit more loose fitting?
Well, the Apple EarPods USB-C are among the best budget options for you.

However, I also tried them out withYouTubeand Spotify on my Windows laptop.
