    Extraordinary sounds

    Reviewed by - June 24, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Quantum 100 sound is really amazing while playing the game I could hear the sound effects really good and the bass and music really blended in perfect. I love the cushion on the ears and the head. It feels really good when you are wearing them and they don't feel cheap at all. I like the mic I just which it could of had a rotating feature to it but it bends to your liking. The wire is not bad but I wish it could of had a bluetooth option as well. It has a sporty look which is cool that you match up with many gaming gear looks. As always you can trust JBL for great quality products.

    Lightweight,Super Comfort, Removable Flex Mic

    Reviewed by - June 25, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just recently received my JBL QUANTUM 100 and I couldn’t be happier. It’s very lightweight so you don’t even feel it on. As always with JBL the sounds are astounding. The flexible and removable mic is also an awesome feature with the ability to mute at a single touch of a button. Works well on any platform and is excellent for private video chats and video appointments with your loved ones or Doctor. I even tried with my MacBook Pro FaceTime feature and it worked great. Super highly recommended.

    Quantum 100P

    Reviewed by - February 24, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Quantum 100P are very light weight and have very good sound and communication qualities on my X Box. The head phones were very clear and the boom seemed to be spot on for gaming and did not lag while gaming. They are very comfortable after gaming for long periods. The only draw back is the cord is too short, when you have a large TV, being that close seems like you miss some targets. I tried the headphones on my guitar amp and was pleasantly surprised how clear the sound came through the headphones, they have the sound control dial on the side where you can crank up the amp without bothering others in the house, I am sorry to report the boom did not work with my amp. These are great headphones for a wired system, I just wish the cord was about four foot longer to get the full benefit out of them, other than the short cord they have a lot going for them, very light weight, full ear coverage, easy to adjust the sound dial, and excellent mouth boom.

    Good pair of gaming headphones!

    Reviewed by - March 15, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son recently got his first portable gaming console and I wanted to get him a headset so we don't have to hear the game audio during his gaming sessions and also talk with his cousins when playing multiplayer games. The Quantum 100P is a nice headset to have as a starter. Before handing it to my son I used it for about 2 weeks and I like how light and comfortable the headset is. It's also nice that I don't have to remember to charge the headset before using it since the only option is to plug it into a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Music sounds good when using the product with my phone and call are loud and clear. The volume is not that loud and this is a PLUS since I don't was hearing loss and definitely don't want my son to have any hearing problems. It is nice that a windscreen was added, it definitely works when gaming next to a fan. The headset is white and can get dirty really quickly if the hands are not clean. Overall I'm really happy with the Quantum 100P and my son is having a blast using them.

    Great gaming headset!

    Reviewed by - March 1, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Quantum 100P gaming headset is a good entry level headset. The headphones are very light and have a decent build quality. They will last if taken care of. They are primarily made of plastic except for the padding on the ear cups. The ear cups have a soft comfortable feel. I could easily wear these all day without having that skull crushing feeling you get from allot of headsets. They don’t hurt my neck from being heavy. The Quantum 100p plugs into my ps5 controller easily as if it was made for this controller. Using it with my ps5 allowed me to experience the PlayStation’s 3D audio which is exceptional. The headset has 40mm drivers and have decent sound output. They get loud enough and are able to recreate a wide sound field. They are not very bass heavy. I find these to be a clear sounding headset. They don’t give a mind blowing experience but they offer good performance for what they are. I would say these are great for a young person who wants a good console based headset. The microphone performs well and has a mute button located on the side of ear cup. The mic is very focused and balanced. It can easily be disconnected if you don’t want to use it. Having a volume knob on the ear cup is very useful and a great feature. These gaming headphones being wired, being composed of mostly plastic materials and having basic features make this an entry level headset. An entry level headset that I would definitely purchase. I enjoy using these for extended periods of time. My kids are also enjoying these. They utilize them for all of the consoles we have in our home.

    Honest Budget Headset

    Reviewed by - February 22, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] An absolute banger audio experience for a budget! The drivers give a very “gamer” sound profile while maintaining great detail in all fields. For anyone just getting into gaming or needing something a little more than what was included with your system. These are the perfect buy! Sound Quality: Crisp highs overpower the mids and lows but the drivers still maintain to make everything audible. Although not preferred for gaming, there is a noticeable lack in the low end in sustained circumstances. During a few major scenes some major dialog was washed out with explosions and the crackle of other sounds. For the average gamer, they are great. The microphone being detachable is a plus for travel as well as allowing for easier packaging. While being crisp and clear, words being said by the user seem to be slightly muffled in some louder environments. Very solid microphone for most situations. Build Quality: Hard Plastics and leatherette feeling ear cups, nothing too special, although very rigid. The headband including a small area of top padding allows for longer periods of use. The expanding part is very snappy and robust while also being made of hard plastic. Rotating ear cups are always a welcome addition to any set of headphones allowing for easier storage and flexibility when fitting various head sizes. Packaging: Environmentally friendly materials accommodate the simple and clean presentation perfectly. The unboxing is strait to the point. An included detachable microphone along with the headset themself is front and center as soon as you open the box. Overall: The good sound quality and average build quality are perfect for the casual gamer although may leave a more experienced gamer wanting more.

    Affordable and comfortable headset

    Reviewed by - June 20, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Choosing an affordable wired headset isn't very simple these days. The marketplace has a plethora of wireless options in different forms and sizes. Not to mention the wide price points and technological options. This is where the JBL quantum 100 nails it with simplicity. PROS: + Affordable with good build quality + Super lightweight and comfortable for wearing all day + Removable mic and mute button control + Good sound isolation + Bonus: No charging required :) CONS: - Weak Bass - Volume control placement isn't the best Overall a great option for working from home and gaming.

    Great Entry-Mid level headphones!

    Reviewed by - March 7, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Comfort and Flexibility for this price point is unbeatable! These gaming headphones are super lightweight and comfortable even when you rest around your neck nicely when not using them. Sound Volume and Quality: The JBL Quantum 100P can produce a good loud sound that is clear, in both music and games. The ability to attach and detach the mic is great for when you are just trying to game solo or need that communication. On the receiving end of the 100P's, I sound clear to others who I'm talking to. Overall for the price, you get a solid pair of gaming headphones I would be comfortable to travel with and you know will get the job done!

    No brainer headphones for gaming!

    Reviewed by - February 22, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Quantum 100P console headphones are truly every gamer's ally. They are a step above your typical gaming headset and once you plug them in, you’ll hear as well as feel why. I have struggled with pricey headsets in the past regarding comfort over time and have learned that all the bells and whistles do not matter if the headphones are not comfortable. These JBL Quantum 100P’s offer sublime comfort when wearing them for extended periods of time. I also find the angle of the earpieces work perfect for my head and ears. The headband can be snug while the earpieces are angled for a perfect fit offering comfort as well as a fit that does a great job blocking out background noise. I never got a headache or had any uncomfortable spots while wearing these for extended hours. Some may say these lean on the lighter side regarding weight, I think that is a bonus as what helps to make them so comfortable all the while not sacrificing build quality. The braided cable is a nice touch offering less tangles and durability and the actual 3.5mm jack itself is a fantastic design that offers your fingers a sturdy hold when plugging and unplugging. These headphones offer a handy volume dial as well as a mute button on the left side. I love being able to adjust volume on the fly and found this a welcome feature. There is also a removable boom mic that plugs in under the left earpiece giving the user the option of a mic. The JBL Quantum 100P console headphones boast 40mm drivers as well as JBLs QuantumSound Signature. These headphones are compatible with PS4, PS5 (PS5 3D audio compatible), XBOX ONE (S)(X), also series X/S, Nintendo Switch, PC etc. I like to feel a game when I’m playing which is where the bass comes in, and these definitely have the right stuff! I tested them on Xbox Series S as well as PS5. From the horse galloping in Elden Ring to the wide range of explosions in shooters such as Modern Warfare 2, Overwatch and Apex you will be fully immersed in your games thanks to these cans. The low end is punchy but tight enough to offer up some incredible sounding bass. You also have the clean highs and mids you would expect from JBL. The mic delivers great clarity according to my teammates who never had a issue understanding me. JBL is a name everyone is familiar with regarding durable products, huge sound and great prices and the bottom line is these Quantum 100P console headphones offer phenomenal sound while being comfortable and not breaking your bank. If you are on the fence trust me when I say you will not be sorry giving these a go!
