JBL Quantum 810 Wireless Noise Canceling Over-Ear Gaming Headset, Black

2025-05-16T20:00:00

I believe JBL has actively chosen to make their newer Quantum 810s worse to make users opt for newer models. for the last 5 years I've owned multiple Quantum 810s, all have worked fine. this week my last one broke so I bought a new one. the range of the dongle has gotten so much worse, it's baffeling. I used to be able to walk around the entire house and not have any problems, clear audio no matter where I went. now I can't even get out of my own room without there being a bunch of noise. at first I thought it might be a faulty product so I returned it and bought a different one of the same model. nope, this one is just as terrible. showing to me this is an intentional choise. JBL you're a terrible company that screws over it's users by deliberately making your products worse over time.

For the price the headset performed well, when it worked properly. While still under warranty my microphone started making horrible noises for other people in my calls. I contacted customer service and long story short was told that i cannot claim my warranty until I go back to the US (since I'm travelling abroad for an indefinite time). So buyers beware.

So I've had this headset for 15 months and it's holding strong a full charge lasts it 3 days It's range is about 4 yards with interference and it's been darn near indestructible Only parts that have broken are one of the war mountings that I drilled back on and the mic but other than that it had endured being crushed slapped played with by a toddler and time

I was super excited to try these out. Man am I disappointed. The sound is great, fits my head well but within an hour of using them, I heard a pop then a weird static like the speakers are blown in the right side. Then the static turned into a high pitch squealing and then what sounded like an alarm, I had to restart my PC to stop the alarm sound but the static was still there. I updated my drivers, restarted pc, fully charged the headset and tried again. Now it randomly has static which sounds like the speaker is blown, but it's random and not all the time. When the headset is working,the sound is great.

There is now play/stop/skip buttons. Maybe the reason for that is it is able to connect both on RF2.4GH and Bluetooth, so which one stream would you like to stop if listening to both? But since there is no buttons for that, and I use a lot, I will give 4 stars.

Finally, a headset that does not randomly crack for no reason. The quality is really good and the sound is perfect. However, when I have standby time on, the headset is supposed to turn of after a certain amount of time when no audio is playing. But it randomly turns off even when audio is playing, especially when the battery is around 50%. Its not a big deal, I just have it always on, then it does not do it, but I think its worth mentioning.

I initially purchased a pair of the 810s back in January for work. I was super happy with the product; sound quality is top notch. After about 4 months my mic started to crackle and eventually stopped working. I reached out to JBL about the issue, and they sent a new pair right away. Very pleased with the customer service and product.

These headphones are just, AWESOME. They sound extremely good, the battery life is just... incredible. The mic could've been better but atleast my friends can hear me. I would've liked to see some metal on this thing especially at such a high price, but the quality is still very good.

Had a wide range of headsets for gaming, these are pretty dang good so far. Mainly play cod. Mic is adjustable, would recommend these if money isnt an issue for anyone looking for a new headset.

Everything has worked just fine for me, the customization is detailed, the surround sound is great, and the audio quality is near perfect. These are overall the best headphones i have ever used.

I really wanted to like these. The RBG is cool and they're very comfortable. However, the audio is actually awful. I've played with all the settings, read the manual and some Reddit threads. Nothing seems to make the sound quality even close to decent. There's even a static sound sometimes. The mic is also very bad. None of my friends can ever hear me and they ask me to repeat myself multiple times. The battery life is also something that bugged me- they die so quick. I'm not even picky with things like this but these were really disappointing. Not worth the money at all in my opinion.

I purchased this item I'd say 3 days ago, everything was great the audio is wonderful and everything id expect from a jbl product, but theres modes you can have your headphones in and one mode i like to have my headphones in is anc its a really great feature. Sadly, I cant enjoy this mode for apparently having all your hz's (31hz, 62hz, 125hz, etc...) maxed out it messes with the mode and bugs the right headphone causing it to make a terrible treble noise like a blown speaker. Now I go about my days without it on and so far not an issue but please get this fixed. Id like to be able to enjoy these headphones at the standards they're expected to be held. P.s. id like to mention i didnt have this issue when initially having everything maxed and anc on.

My brother got this product and it's a very comfortable and the sound quality is amazing. Adjustable for any size and definitely worth owning if you want the best gaming experience.

I just wrote a review not that long ago but realized another fault of this product. The LED lights don't even function when you are using them with an Xbox due to the fact it isn't connected to Bluetooth, and the Bluetooth isn't supported on Xbox for whatever reason. You can turn the electronics on for Bluetooth mode for a little while, but it'll shut off automatically shortly after due to there being no Bluetooth connection. If you are looking into these, and are an Xbox user consider this? All of the buttons and turn dials have no function if you are using an aux cord which is your only option on Xbox, the noise canceling doesn't work with aux (which once again is your only option), and the LED lights don't even work with an aux cord. Absolutely awful product for Xbox users. I wish there were a warning telling Xbox users not to buy this due to the absolute lack of all of these features.

I got this on their Black Friday sale for half price and I am in love with it so far. Sound quality is pretty amazing. The spatial surround sound truly sounds great for music, gaming, or just watching videos. Noise cancelling is very good, can hardly hear myself speaking. Very comfortable as well. Mic sound quality seems to be nice as well. Oh battery life is absolutely amazing on this thing (I keep the LEDs powered off). The JBL quantum software that you use with the headset is nice and easy to use. It has things such as battery percentage indicator, LED color customization, EQs, and more. My only concern with this headset, is the microphone makes an audible clicking nosie when you move it up into the mute position. My concern being that the switch, or whatever that clicking noise to mute the mic, may mess up over time. But we shall see. So far this thing is super great though.

The headphones sound great overall, I'm just upset to find out that if you play on Xbox the wireless feature does not work.

I bought this on black friday and it was my best purchase! I have had turtle beach, razor, and logitech headphones and none of them come close to the JBL 810. I play on PS5 and these provide me with everything I could need for console play. The bluetooth connection allows me to be in discord with my PC friends on my phone while still hearing gameplay. When I want to listen to music, the 810's are my go to choice even over airpods! The wireless connection is seamless and so easy to connect to my console. These headphones come with everything a gamer can want and need. Highly recommend trying these to bring your gaming experience to the next level.

The Quantum 810 is a great wireless gaming headset. It's sound isolating closed ear design helps block out any unwanted background noise that interferes with your gaming or listening experience. I use my Quantums to help block out the sound of a loud fan blowing in the background which helped immerse myself into the game. The dual sound channel is also a great feature. Being able to adjust whether I hear my WoW guildies on discord more or the game more clearly is a great ability. I only have 1 minor complaint; my ears got sweaty after having the headset on for about 3 hours straight. But that probably means I should take more breaks. Overall the Quantum 810 is a fantastic wireless headset and a great entry into the market. It is light weight, easy to use and connect, has clear sound, has customizable RGBs, and most importantly easy to use external volume controls.

When I first opened the box of the 810s, I immediately felt that they were going to be good headphones. After testing them, I found that the game sound tracking was really good. I could tell where enemies were just using the headphones. The noise cancellation is excellent. What blew me away the most when I first plugged them in was the sound quality. It is very clear and crisp. You can really hear the bass too. The packaging is amazing, as is the presentation of the headphones in the box. The buttons work flawlessly, and the headphones are fast charging. What I didn't like though was the microphone. I wish you were able to remove it. Sometimes it gets in the way. And on the outside of the headphones, there's a metal material, which looks good, but it also gets a lot of fingerprints. Overall, they feel stable and work great.

I love everything about JBL's best gaming headset I have ever used. First off, when unboxing the Quantum 810 wireless, they have the coolest look with "JBL" that lights up different colors on each side. They are inside of a nice bag to keep them from getting scratched and keep dust off of them when not in use. They are so comfortable when you put them on, you would have to put them on to appreciate how comfortable they really are. I imagined that's what a fluffy cloud would feel like, when I put them on. Way more so comfortable than any other headset I've ever used and I've used a lot over the years. Now the sound quality, with surround sound and with the full active noise canceling, pretty much blew my mind. The sound is so amazing and I feel like I'm in a movie theater with perfect crisp sound all around. I absolutely love it!! You don't have to do anything to connect them to your devices. The Bluetooth automatically connects when you turn them on. You can't get any easier than taking the product out and just turning it on and it's ready to go. The charger is included and it's very nice and sturdy. It's made like a "rope" plus the handbook for using is included in the box. There is nothing I would change about JBL's Quantum 810 wireless gaming headset because it is literally the best I've ever had in every way. I know they will last forever because everything from JBL has lasted me for years and I've never had a problem. If you want the best quality, sound and superior comfort made, I highly recommend this product. I'm sure this is the last headset I want to use for years to come. It's that good.

One of the greatest fitting and sounding headphones I have ever put on my head. The sound quality makes you feel like you are physically in the game. I love the on/off mic trigger. it makes muting the mic super easy to talk to someone that is in the room or answer the phone.

With the current gaming headphones market it's hard to decide which set fits best for you. What sets the Quantum 810 apart from the competitors is the ANC (active noise cancelling), the custom RGB effects, and the overall quality of the product. Even though they're mostly made of plastic, the Quantums feel nice and durable and the looks match as well, sleek and clean. Comfort is an important factor, after a long session of gaming there's little to no discomfort with these beasts. The active noise canceling is a real game changer (literally haha), it allows for more focus on the game, especially if you have to share a household with other people using TV's. Also love that the mic can be moved out of the way easily and automatically mutes while in the upward position. Thge customizability of the RGB lighting is a really great feature, I'm able to match it to my computer and my keyboard using the JBL Quantum app, as well as adjust the sound settings for the headphones. One of the coolest additions to the Quantums is their ability to be used as regular headphones too! Bluetooth connectivity and a 3.5mm audio jack allows for use on phones whether its for music or streaming. The Quantum 810s leave little to be desired in the features department and that's why I consider them one of the best headphones. 10/10

I may not be a hardcore gamer, but these headphones may just change that. The sound quality and 3D feel of these is amazing. I use them with an Xbox, so I'm wired, but with the included wire, that has controls on the wire, you're good to go. This also comes with a Bluetooth dongle device for your PC. They also work great for just listening to music. They feel super comfortable on your head and ears with plenty of padding in all places. The led lights make them fun to wear in the dark and even better for guests to see. I can't find a single thing I don't love about these headphones!

These headphones do everything you might need them to do as a gamer, office worker, and a student. First, as a gamer, they have two modes of virtual surround sound: DTS and QuantumSURROUND. I left it at JBL's mode, but DTS is also useful. You can adjust your head size in the app, and that supposedly makes the surround sound algorithm more accurate. Quantum 810s produce all frequencies faithfully, and the bass is strong. I advise to tone down the bass a bit in the equalizer, unless you love the shaking bass of various 3d shooters. The wireless dongle installed easily and works flawlessly: I don't perceive any delay between the action in the game and the sound reaching my ears. It's very liberating not to be tied to the desktop. The wireless signal is rather strong, and I can still hear undistorted audio from the second floor (computer is on the first floor). Next, as an office worker, these headphones connect to your phone's bluetooth and seamlessly merge the computer's sounds with your phone conversations. This is priceless: you don't have to keep switching between the headphones and whatever you use to talk on the phone. The top dial on the left earpiece allows you to tone down the computer sounds. Unfortunately, you can't control the volume of the phone sounds (both conversations and whatever media you're playing). Lastly, as a student who wears these headphones while coding and writing papers/latex, these headphones are a blessing in that they feature active noise canceling and play all music very nicely. The ANC can be turned on and off using a small button on the very top of the left earpiece. As mentioned in the gaming section, all frequencies are produced very well by these Quantum 810s, and ANC allows for better concentration and lower music volume, while you can still hear all the details in your music. Lastly, battery life is very good. I charge them up every few days of 3-6 hours behind the computer. My RGB LED settings are minimal, and I estimate that with RGB turned all the way off you can get maybe 1.5 - 2 times the battery life. But who buys RGB LED - enabled headphones and doesn't use them, amirite? Overall, great headphones that do everything I wanted them to do. There is nothing extraneous or redundant, and all the necessary features are there. Great product by JBL.

These headphones are incredible! The QuantumSURROUND makes you feel like you are inside your game. I also love the ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) to eliminate any external sounds. The boom mic with its flip-up mute is a pretty ingenious detail for quick action. If you are a gamer of any level, I would highly recommend these!

Comfortable headphones for gaming. Felt heavy at first, but were good after a bit of adjustment. Kind of more comfortable without glasses, though not bad with them on. Easy to use the headset and sound quality is perfectly decent.
