JBL introduces Sense PRO headphones: Open-ear audio reimagined
Next-level comfort, rich JBL OpenSound and crystal-clear calls.
Cologne, 20th August 2025 – JBL is raising the bar on open-ear audio with the introduction of
JBL Sense PRO. The ultimate open-ear headphones blend rich JBL OpenSound and outstanding call quality with effortless comfort and a premium design. Engineered for busy lifestyles,
JBL Sense PRO offers high-quality sound, crystal-clear communication, and environmental awareness whether you're at home, in the office, or on the go.
Cutting-edge open-ear technology At the heart of Sense PRO is JBL OpenSound with air conduction. Offering rich, immersive sound without blocking the ear canal, the carefully selected and positioned 16.2mm Diamond-Like Carbon drivers are paired with JBL OpenSound tuning to provide detailed clarity and responsive bass.
These advanced drivers are faster and more accurate, delivering tighter bass with near-zero distortion for an exceptionally precise audio experience. JBL’s Adaptive Bass Boost Algorithm further improves bass with dynamic adjustments ensuring sound is always full and clean. For high-resolution 24-bit sound, Sense PRO is certified for Hi-Res Audio Wireless.
JBL Spatial Sound further enhances the experience with an expansive stereo soundstage from any song or movie scene and any device.
Hear everything, share nothing
Enjoy the open-ear experience while keeping what you’re listening to private, whether it’s a confidential call or a guilty pleasure playlist. Sense PRO minimizes sound leakage by directing sound towards the ear canal and minimize leakage using opposite-phase sound waves.
Easily switch between smartphone and laptop, music and business calls. JBL Sense PRO supports multi-point connection, allowing simultaneous pairing with two devices.
Crystal-clear calls in any environment
Four voice microphones and cutting-edge Voice Pickup Sensor technology mean your voice is front and center with Sense PRO. Whether you're walking through a busy city center or taking a call on a breezy day in the park, the slimline design and Environmental Noise Reduction keep distractions at bay.
Crisp, clear calls backed by the latest AI-trained call algorithm which filters out background noise and wind in real time, even in the most complex environments. You will sound clear and confident, no matter where your day takes you.
Sleek design, all-day comfort
JBL Sense PRO is designed to feel as good as it sounds. With a sleek, metallic-accented finish and ultra-soft liquid silicone, it brings a premium look and feel everywhere. The lightweight titanium alloy ear hook features a split-hook design for even weight distribution, reducing fatigue and taking all-day comfort to a whole new level. Open sound, no ear canal pressure, just effortless style and comfort.
Personalized fit matters. Ears are as unique as fingerprints, so Sense PRO is engineered with comfort at its core. Its slim, compact form can be adjusted to different ear shapes and sizes, offering a secure, comfortable fit and ensuring sound is always channelled into the ear at the optimal angle.
“The JBL Sense PRO marks a major leap in open-ear audio.” said Carsten Olesen, President of Consumer Audio at HARMAN. “We’ve harnessed our deep audio expertise to deliver a full, bass-rich sound through air conduction, something previously unheard of in open-ear designs. Combined with all-day comfort, intelligent features, and a durable, refined design, it sets a new standard for the category.”
