Woot is having another of their massive sales, but one specific deals is sticking out among the rest: The JBL Live Free NC+ True Wireless earbuds are currently 67% off their $150 listing price. For $50, you can get this pair of noise canceling Bluetooth earbuds from now until April 1 (or while supplies last). But should you?
Are the JBL Live Free NC+ earbuds a good deal?
According to Honey’s price history, Woot’s $50 price point matches Amazon’s Black Friday deal, and the price has not dropped below $100 since early January. If you’re in the market for some new noise-cancelling earbuds that don’t break the bank, it’ll be hard to beat this deal.

According to Rtings.com’s review, the earbuds’ highest rank is in the sports/fitness category because they are comfortable, lightweight, secure, and portable. They did the worst in the phone call category because of the quality of its mic. So, if you’re planning to use them for lots of phone calls or Zoom meetings, you might want to look elsewhere.
The earbuds market a seven-hour battery, but Rtings.com say they really last 5.4 hours, not counting the two additional charges the portable charging case give you. The earbuds are sweat- and waterproof, per their marketing, and allow you to use only one earbud if you want—and doing so would enable you to extend the battery life because you can charge one earbud while you use the other one.
