JBL's new Tour PRO 2 true wireless earbuds feature "the world's first smart charging case". The case has a 1.45-inch touch screen that lets users easily and intuitively control features like ANC and ambient sound that would normally require opening a dedicated app on your phone or remembering a complex set of touch gestures. The touch screen also lets you "manage your music, customize your earbuds, receive calls, messages and social media notifications in real time without touching your phone." The earbuds feature: customizable ANC and ambient sound, Personi-fi 2.0 "customizable sound experience", "JBL Spatial Sound", and "6-mic perfect calls with VoiceAware". The buds have Bluetooth 5.3 with LE Audio and offer 40 hours total music playback (10 hours in the earbuds + 30 in the case). The JBL Tour PRO 2 launch in January 2023 for €249, and will be available in black or champagne. They will come to the US in "spring" 2023 for $250.
