These cheap JBL earbuds offer all-day battery life and cost less than $30

Need a hardy pair of wireless earbuds with long battery life? Well, if you don't want to spend a whole lot of money, too, you can get the JBL Vibe Beam at Amazon for $29.95 (was $49.95).

JBL is known for a wide range of audio products: from budget buys to some of the best earbuds on the market. The JBL Vibe Beam, not to be confused with the similarly named Live Beam, is on the more affordable side of the spectrum.

However, that doesn’t mean they're without any perks, including the aforementioned battery life of up to 32 hours, comfortable fit and solid audio quality. Of course, they won't compete with the top-end options from the likes of Bose or Sony, but if it's cheap and usable buds you're after, these are hard to beat for the price.
