JBL is a well-known audio brand under Harman Kardon. Its products mainly include speakers and headphones. JBL Under Armour Flash is a true wireless sports earphones product with a unique appearance design, and has successively launched a joint version with Dwayne Johnson and Under Armour.
This time, the Under Armour joint version will be disassembled. The charging case is made of metal matte, with a sliding switch compartment design and engraved with Under Armour brand logo. The earphone is a bean-shaped in-ear design with earwings to improve the stability of sports wear. Support IPX7 waterproof to ensure normal use in the case of sweating. Supports intelligent perception function, you can learn outside sounds without removing the earphones, and improve wearing safety.
52audio also teardown the JBL LIVE 660NC, JBL LIVE PRO+, JBL C260TWS, JBL FREE II, JBL Free, JBL CHARGE 4 and JBL FLIP 5 bluetooth speakers. Let’s take a look at the appearance design and internal structure configuration of this product.
