Our take: The JBL’s price advantage is clear, but the lack of published specs makes it harder to gauge sound quality or battery endurance. Users report Sony’s battery lasting well into a full day of mixed use, while JBL users must rely on anecdotal runtime reports.
Provisional pick: Sony WF‑1000XM5 — not enough sourced decision facts for JBL Tune Buds 2. We don't rank on specs we can't verify.
