we find good deals for you!
During the Black Friday and Cyber Monday festivities, the HTC website has dropped the price of their U11 smartphone (no headphone jack) to $599 factory unlocked with USA warranty BUT they are also including for free the JBL Aware C USB-C earphones. The product page there just mentions “FREE JBL earphones”, it’s when you add the U11 phone to the shopping cart that you see more details about the free JBL USB-C earphones.
Here’s a screenshot of the shopping cart with more details on the earphone:
The NewEGG Black Friday sale is up and running with over 3K products participating. Among them is the new condition JBL Everest 710 Bluetooth Over-Ears in the gunmetal color scheme offered for $125 with free shipping. This is sold by Electronics EXPO through the NewEGG website. Limit three per customer.
But this appears to have propagated through the interwebs as well, a trio of sellers offer it for the same price fulfilled by Amazon, and so does the Harman Audio eBAY store and the official JBL / Harman store. It’s a small internet world 🙂
The closed-back JBL E45BT Bluetooth On-Ears are included for FREE when you purchase the new condition 15.4″ late 2016 MacBook PRO with TouchBar (16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Retina, Radeon PRO 450, etc) for $1799 at B&H Photo in gray or black. You also get one year of the Microsoft Office subscription. This is a limited time offer.

This item sold out and can longer be ordered. The listing is being removed, so the chances of returning are as close to zero as you can get…

This is the deal of the week at the official Harman/JBL online store, running until 8/6/17, it is the new condition JBL Inspire 100 Vivid earphones going for $5 with free shipping (even if you only buy one pair), available in bright green or yellow color schemes. Limit ten units per order. As you can see from the pictures, these are somewhere in-between an earbud and an in-ear model.
On the budget side of things, the manufacturer refurbished JBL E30 closed-back folding on-ears are on sale for $20 with free shipping in three different color schemes by the official JBL store through the NewEgg website. The offer ends Saturday night.
One of the offers participating in the new 10% off eBay coupon code PJUNESAVINGS10 that gets you 10% off qualifying products priced $25+ is the “New – Other” condition JBL Synchros S500 Powered Headphones [CORRECTED LINK!] offered for $53 with free shipping before coupn. The 10% off coupon drops them to under $48.
Their condition in the listing over there is described by Brooklyn seller “Poppy Deals” (99.6%) as being new condition but not in the retail packaging to save on shipping. As usual, these type of offers have a higher risk than buying new-in-retail-box from authorized and well-known dealers, so it’s up to you to decide where you draw the line on risk taking.
These are wired but powered. Their circuit is powered by two AAA batteries, which is a plus if you are a fan of rechargeables or have a giant container full of single use batteries. The carrying case and the two cables are included in the package.
The coupon expires 6/9/17 at 11:59pm PST.
The NBA Playoffs are here, so if you feel particularly motivated to externalize team spirit through your audio purchases [that almost sounded like audiophile-magazine-speak] the official JBL store is offering the JBL Synchros S300 NBA Edition on-ear headphones for $50 per pair in six licensed NBA team designs: the Bulls, the Fakers, the Knicks (SAD!), the Oklahoma Thunder-Sonics, the Duncan Spurs, and the Boston Celtics. Free shipping.
Speaking of JBL, their Synchros Chrome Edition Over-Ears (powered headphones) are on sale for $95 with free shipping. The powering is done with 2 AAA batteries, not a built-in battery, so a plus for fans of rechargeable/removable batteries (eg Eneloop 8pk for $15~).
The prices keep on dropping for this, if you are looking for USB-C headphones (not as populous as lightning cables that have Apple’s hype train behind them), the JBL Reflect Aware USB Type-C sport earphones can be yours for $50 with free shipping at A4C (All4Cellular) when you use limited time coupon FLASH50 (a flash sale coupon).
This is a NewEgg “daily” deal, so it is offered for two days. On Day #1 (Friday), promo code EMCSREBE2 gets you the new condition JBL Coach E40 Bluetooth On-Ears for $30 with free shipping. You may have to be a NewEgg email subscriber to use this coupon. On Day #2 (Saturday), it becomes one of the daily deals posted on their ShellShocker daily deals.
PS: I can’t see the benefit of this convoluted way of doing daily deals, but what do I know? 🙂
For NBA fans, the JBL S300 closed-back on-ear headphones that are NBA-licensed are on sale again for $50 with free shipping at the official JBL store. These are new condition available in Bulls, Knicks, Thunder, Lakers, Spurs and Celtics. Per the listing there, they come with a carrying case and a detachable cable. It’s not clear whether you get the Android or iOS 3-button cable or both.
White color headphones can look nice but they also absorb stains like no other. It can be a plus if you want to “life decorate” your headphones, a combination of coffee, tea, wild blueberries and beets will definitely make them a head-turner 🙂
But if you like the white color scheme, you are in luck! The new condition JBL Synchros S300 with the Apple remote buttons are available in new condition for $39 with free shipping by a variety of sellers fulfilled by Amazon (Prime eligible). “HiDEF Lifestyle” is the most recognizable of the lot (a real world B&M A/V store).
If you prefer other color and OS combinations, the official Harman Audio and JBL websites (they have the same content with different styling and domain names) have a factory reconditioned section that does not show up in the search-results when you use the search-box on their web store. The headphones offered there come with the original warranty and offer a 30-day return guarantee.
The current headliners among the refurbished headphones there are the JBL Synchros S300A (Android buttons) and S300i (iPhone buttons) closed-back on-ears offered for $40 with free ground shipping. They are available in multiple colors each. There is a limit of five units per order, but I don’t know if the limit is per color or per OS or overall. They have a detachable cable, so you can repurpose the cable with other headphones (assuming it fits – I haven’t seen these in person so I don’t know how their cable connects).
Since you get the original warranty, certified by the manufacturer and free shipping, the thrifty way to go is with the factory reconditioned.

This weekend sale expired, they are back to $150 as of 3/13/17 AM…
The official Harman Audio store (now part of Samsung, so Galaxy fanpersons may decide now to shop there instead of Beats) is offering the factory recertified JBL J55A Closed On-Ears for $20 with free ground shipping. As the “A” in the model name semi-hints at, this is the “Android buttons” model. It comes with a detachable 1-button cable and a carrying pouch, so they can become extra accessories even after the headphones reach their end of life. They have 32 ohm impedance which matches their main use-cases profile. Limit five units per customer.
The price of this continues to drop, the JBL Reflect Aware USB Type-C earphones are down to $80 with free shipping, in your choice of black or white, as one of the A4C Wednesday daily deals ending by 11:59pm ET. This works with USB-C devices (that can output audio over the USB-C connection).
For a limited time, coupon code FLASH50 cuts the price in half of the new condition JBL Reflect Aware USB Type-C earphones, in either black or white. After coupon is entered (you don’t have to login to try the coupon, just add item to cart and then enter the coupon) the price is $85. This is a limited time flash sale coupon.

On the other hand, if you prefer seller-refurbished, at A4C these are in refurbished condition for $120 with free shipping and a 90-day replacement warranty by A4C (not Samsung).
Speaking of A4C, one of their other Monday daily deals is the refurbished red-black on-ear JBL Synchros E40BT bluetooths for $40 with free shipping and a likewise 90-day replacement warranty covered by the seller A4C, not JBL.
PS: this was not posted by design, but JBL is now owned by Samsung 🙂
Another new deal that emerged since the previous update of the Headphone Tracker (notable changes there are marked in BOLD) is that the LG V20 freebie train is getting more wagons if you are willing to buy it unlocked and not from carriers. Its price from authorized with USA warranty dealers is $800. If you buy it from B&H Photo you will receive three freebies:
All useful freebies in their own right, which means you can also use them as Holiday gifts 🙂
This is the North American variant of the phone (model US996), with carrier flexibility and USA warranty. 64GB of on-board storage plus a microSD slot and removable battery, along with “Quad DAC”, Nougat out of the box, and things of that nature.
