Wired JBL Quantum 50 Headphones Black
The JBL Quantum 50 are wired in‑ear gaming headphones primarily designed for mobile gaming. Thanks to cross‑platform compatibility, you can also use them with PC, Mac, consoles and VR. They suit players who want game audio, teammate communication and basic controls at hand without having to interrupt gameplay every time they change the volume.
Sound is delivered by 8.6mm drivers tuned with JBL QuantumSOUND Signature. The headphones are designed to reproduce finer audio details that can help with orientation in the game. For multiplayer sessions you’ll appreciate the inline voice‑focused microphone. It’s positioned close to the mouth and separated from the controls to capture speech clearly.
The cable houses a controller with a separate sliding volume control and a microphone mute switch. The multifunction button also manages calls and music. Twistlock™ technology combines ergonomic design with very soft silicone to help the earbuds sit comfortably and securely in your ears even during extended play.
Although the JBL Quantum 50 are designed with mobile gaming in mind, they’re not limited to a single device type. According to the manufacturer, they can be used with PC, Mac, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, mobile devices and VR. If you switch between gaming platforms, these headphones offer a single solution for game audio and voice communication.
JBL QuantumSOUND Signature gaming audio
The headphones use JBL QuantumSOUND Signature tuning and 8.6mm drivers. In gaming it’s important to perceive not only pronounced sound effects but also subtle details that accompany in‑game action. The JBL Quantum 50 are designed to help you pick up sounds from enemies and allies and better orient yourself in the game environment. This sound tuning is useful for mobile gaming as well as when using the headphones on other compatible platforms. These wired in‑ear headphones combine gaming audio with the ability to communicate with teammates via the integrated microphone.
Volume and mic control on the cable
The inline controller lets you change volume, mute the microphone and use the multifunction button to manage calls and music. The volume has its own sliding control, so it’s separate from other functions. During play you therefore have the necessary controls directly on the headphone cable and don’t need to reach for device controls for routine volume adjustments. The dedicated mic mute is handy when you need to pause voice chat with teammates. The same controller also expands the headphones’ use outside gaming, for example when listening to music or handling calls.
Inline microphone for voice communication
The JBL Quantum 50 are equipped with an inline microphone focused on capturing voice during multiplayer play. The microphone sits close to the mouth and is separated from the controls. This layout is designed to provide optimal speech pickup during multiplayer gaming. You can control voice communication directly on the cable: the mic can be muted with a dedicated control while playback volume is adjusted with the sliding control. The headphones thus combine game audio listening and voice communication in one design without the need for a separate microphone.
Comfortable, secure fit thanks to Twistlock™
Twistlock™ technology is designed for a comfortable, secure fit in the ear. According to the manufacturer, it combines JBL’s patented ergonomic solution with very soft silicone so the earbuds stay in place even during long gaming sessions. The in‑ear design is particularly suitable when you want to use gaming headphones together with a mobile device. The package includes silicone tips in sizes S, M and L so you can choose the size that suits you best. Wearing comfort and fit stability are especially important when you need to focus on the game and don’t want to readjust the headphones repeatedly.
Use across multiple gaming platforms
Although the JBL Quantum 50 are primarily designed for mobile devices, the manufacturer lists compatibility with PC, Mac, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, mobile devices and VR. This means you can use the headphones across multiple platforms instead of buying them for a single device. When switching between mobile gaming, PC or console you retain the same volume control, mic mute and voice microphone. Specific call and music control behavior may depend on the device you connect to.
