Back in August of last year, JBL unveiled some new earbuds -- the JBL Tour Pro 2 -- that had a LED display in their case. Those buds and their eye-catching design have be reintroduced at CES along with several other earbuds that don't quite offer the same wow factor but are updates of previous models.
JBL, which is owned by Samsung, bills the Tour Pro 2 as the first true wireless headphone with a "smart" charging case and says you can tap the 1.45-inch LED touch display to manage music, receive calls, message and social media notifications in real time without having to view on a phone or from the JBL Headphones app.
