The SOUL Jet is a comfortable, well-equipped travel headphone, but its strong bass and weak noise cancelling make it a poor choice for acoustic and classical music.

Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: November 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Soul Electronics Jet

  • High level of comfort for long listening sessions due to memory foam ear pads
  • Effective noise cancellation for low-frequency hums like aircraft noise
  • Pronounced and powerful bass response suitable for bass-heavy genres
  • Lightweight, foldable, and portable design including a travel case
  • Functional passive mode that allows listening even when batteries are dead
  • Tangle-free cable design with an in-line remote for convenience

What customers don't like about Soul Electronics Jet

  • Overall sound quality can feel 'hollow' or 'muddled' when ANC is active
  • Requires a triple-A battery for noise cancellation rather than being rechargeable
  • Lacks fine detail in the midrange and high frequencies
  • Passive isolation is weaker compared to competitors due to thinner earcup padding
  • Noise cancellation may inconsistently pick up movement or bias sound to one ear

Verdict

The Soul Electronics Jet (and its Pro variant) is a lightweight, over-ear wired headphone designed specifically for travelers, featuring active noise cancellation (ANC) powered by a single AAA battery. Weighed at approximately 216g to 252g, it includes professional-grade noise control tested against aviation standards, 40mm neodymium dynamic drivers, and a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz. Its main pros include an extremely comfortable fit with memory foam ear pads, a foldable design for portability, a detachable tangle-free cable with an in-line remote, and a passive mode that allows music playback even when the battery is drained. However, some cons include a bass-heavy sound signature that can lack overall detail or feel hollow, a noise cancellation system that may not fully block high-pitched chatter, and the requirement for external AAA batteries rather than a built-in rechargeable source.
