I ran Live 660NC on and off for five days, before it ran out of the charge. In the mean time, I also used other headphones and earbuds. So I cannot say exactly how many hours the 660's charge lasted, but it DID last long.
The audio quality is good at default setting, but the JBL's app provided different settings of genres of music, plus custom settings you can add. Jazz, Vocal, Bass, Club, Studio just about covers all the spectra, but user-settable custom Eq. allows numerous additional settings.
660 has an earphone jack that allows you to go old school and use wired earphone. It comes with the extension cord just for that purpose.
This over-the-ear earphone gives an improved wear-comfort than the other on-ear JBL I also own (Tune 510). I tend to wear this set more than any other sets.
660 comes with the auto-pause function that activates, when the headphone is removed. But it is too sensitive, so when I try to adjust it, or the headphone is accidentally touched, it goes to pause. I disabled it, and it is no longer pausing accidentally.
Noise canceling function is quite good, as far as regular living environmental noises are concerned, as in, voice, water flowing, closing of doors, banging of vessels and utensile, etc., are concerned. It cuts out wind noise outdoors--I say, 90%. But a riding lawn mower and a prop airplane flying above cut through the force field of NC. 660 also has the provision which allows the voice to be heard. I have not used it in an airplane, so I cannot comment on that. I mostly do not use NC, because I want to hear things around me, and know my surroundings.
For my purpose, I am quite satisfied with this 660. My other, Tune 510, also produces the similar quality of audio performance. I cannot really tell, if there is much difference in the audio quality. Since JBL App does not cover Tune 510, I cannot use the Eq. function on it. With Eq. function, Live 660 does much better than tune 510, but this is not fair comparison.
I've listened to dance music, motets, baroque, flamenco, rock and roll, even Gregorian chants, etc. All was great to my ears. I am quite satisfied with this Live 660.

Great sound and build quality
I bought these for my wife who immediately fell in love with these. They're light weight, well build (as expected from JBL), came with a dust bag, and the sound quality was great out of the box but we did adjust the equalizer to match a profile that suited her best. The Bluetooth connected right away to her S24Ultra and we were able to connect to the JBL app with no issues. One of the best features is being able to control the features of the headphones directly from the app without having to fumble around with the buttons on the headphones when you can't see them. The on/off detection also works well and pauses her Spotify when she removes the headphones and plays again when she puts them back on. Definitely recommended these headphones.
