JBL Tour One M3 can play music via USB-C. Beige headphones cost 4,590 CZK

USB-C on JBL Tour One M3 is not just for charging: they can also play music via cable using a built-in converter. Wirelessly, they support LDAC. The beige Latte variant is in stock at Alza for 4,590 CZK, which is cheaper than the documented September offer with a discount code. Originally, the manufacturer asked for 8,790 CZK.

Quick summary:
✅ Makes sense for: Alternating between wireless listening and music via USB-C; the Latte variant costs 4,590 CZK and is in stock.
⚠️ Consider: With ANC enabled, the seller states 40 hours of battery life, not the maximum 70 hours.
💡 Both the USB-C to USB-C cable and the carrying case are included.

As of September 7, the same variant with code ALZADNY20 cost 6,983 CZK. This is a more useful benchmark than the then public price of 8,729 CZK: today’s offer even beats the amount after applying the code at that time.

Wired listening does not require an additional converter

For listening via USB-C, the headphones have their own DAC with support for 192 kHz / 24 bits. The seller declares lossless sound for this connection; therefore, let’s not confuse it with wireless LDAC. The package includes a USB-C to USB-C cable, a cable for analog 3.5mm output, and a USB-C to USB-A adapter. So, the wired options don’t end with an item in a table; you get the necessary accessories right away.

When switching between a phone and a laptop, a multipoint connection comes in handy. For Android, there’s also Fast Pair quick pairing. You can adjust the sound in the JBL Headphones app using a 12-band equalizer; the same app allows you to change the ANC level and touch controls.

With noise cancellation, expect different battery life

The stated up to 70 hours of listening applies without ANC. With noise cancellation enabled, the seller states 40 hours, which is a more significant figure for travel. This is the declared battery life, not our measurement. According to the same description, five minutes of charging should provide power for another five hours of music.

The headphones have a foldable design and a carrying case is included. They weigh 278 grams. However, I wouldn’t take the seller’s claim of all-day comfort as a guarantee that they will fit everyone: I would rather try on the fit around the ears before long travels.
