JBL announced the Tour PRO 3, the company’s latest flagship earbuds with dual drivers and a 2nd gen Smart Charging Case. Each earbud features a hybrid dual-driver system, consisting of a balanced armature driver for handling high notes with enchanting clarity and a 11mm dynamic driver for clean, powerful bass and vocals.
The earbuds are powered by JBL Pro Sound technology, offering Hi-Res audio and LDAC support for native 24-bit high-resolution audio. For calls, they feature a 6-mic system with a JBL Crystal AI algorithm. These mics also support JBL’s newest True Adaptive Noise Cancellation 2.0 technology, which dynamically adjusts noise cancellation based on the environment.
This advanced system measures noise levels at a rate of over 50,000 times per second and adapts to environmental changes while compensating for sound leakage, according to the company. The JBL Tour PRO 3 includes the new JBL Spatial 360 and head-tracking technology from any audio source.
It includes a smart charging case, similar to other JBL TWS models, but now it can act as a wireless audio transmitter from any USB or analog source and can also share audio content with any Auracast-enabled device using the Auracast button. The screen size has been increased by 30%, allowing users to control music playback, manage calls, and access ID3 tags, caller ID, and media file information.
