JBL has launched the Tour One M3 and Tour One M3 Smart Tx, the latest additions to its premium Tour Series lineup in India. These over-ear headphones follow the recently introduced Tour Pro 3 earphones, expanding the series.
Tour One M3
The standard Tour One M3 includes super-soft ear cushions and a lightweight frame for all-day comfort. Users can connect via USB-C, 3.5mm analog, or Hi-Res wireless LDAC Bluetooth®, enjoying lossless high-quality audio.
Tour One M3 Smart Tx
The Tour One M3 Smart Tx adds the JBL Smart Tx audio transmitter, which connects to nearly any audio source—USB-C, 3.5mm analog, PCs, TVs, gaming consoles, and in-flight entertainment systems—and streams to Auracast™-enabled devices.
A touch display on the Smart Tx allows full control of music, calls, EQ, and Auracast streaming without needing a phone. The Smart Tx offers up to 18 hours of battery life, suitable for long flights or extended listening sessions.
Shared Features
Both the Tour One M3 and Tour One M3 Smart Tx include the following key features:
- 40mm mica dome drivers for deep bass, balanced mids, and clear highs
- JBL Spatial 360 sound with integrated head tracking
- Personi-Fi 3.0 for a personalized hearing profile
- Google Fast Pair for quick Bluetooth pairing with Android devices

Other shared functionalities include 8-mic True Adaptive Noise Cancelling 2.0, which continuously monitors environmental noise and adjusts in real time. Users can customize awareness with Ambient Aware and TalkThru modes. Calls are enhanced with four adaptive beamforming microphones, AI-driven echo cancellation, and VoiceAware control.
The headphones are Zoom certified, support multi-device Bluetooth pairing, and offer up to 70 hours of playback (40 hours with ANC on), with a quick 5-minute charge providing 5 additional hours. SmartTalk automatically lowers music volume when the user speaks, while Auracast™ enables audio sharing with compatible devices.
