"JBL has announced wide availability of three new open-style earbuds in early 2026. The JBL Sense Pro and Sense Lite join the original Sense, which came out in 2024. The new Sense Pro and Lite use JBL's OpenSound technology, support Dual Connect and Fast Pair, have an adjustable ear hook for better comfort, and allow for touch control customization through the JBL app."
"What sets the Sense Pro apart are 16.2mm drivers, support for spatial sound, hi-res audio with adaptive bass boost, and JBL Voice Pickup Sensor technology (which uses bone vibrations to hone in on your voice) and the use of an AI-trained algorithm for improved call quality. The Pro support Bluetooth 6.0, have up to 38 hours of playtime (eight with the buds and an additional 30 with the case). They can be charged wirelessly,"
"The Sense Lite are lighter on features (no spatial sound, hi-res support, wireless charging, Voice Pickup Sensor tech, or Personi-Fi), but still offer up to 32 hours of playtime (24 hours with the case instead of 30 on the Pro), a quick charge of 10 minutes gets three hours of playback, they use Bluetooth 5.4, and the buds are rated IP54. The Lite will be available in black, white, and purple."
