Our Verdict
JBL Live 400BT Wireless
Status Audio BT One Wireless
The JBL Live 400BT Wireless are slightly better for mixed usage than the Status Audio BT One Wireless. The JBL are far more stable, filter out more ambient noise, generate a more neutral listening experience, and have longer battery life. They also have a companion app with a parametric EQ as well as microphone compatibility on a wired connection. That said, the Status Audio are better-built, more comfortable, and come with a nice hard case.
