This is the Jabra elite
This is the Jabra elite active 65t. A terrible name, but completely wireless earbuds with great sound quality. But how does it hold up to its competition? You’d be pretty surprised. Great sound quality doesn’t automatically make these the best earbuds. Let’s get
started.

Straight out of the box you have the earbuds, the charging case for the earbuds, some different changeable ear tips, and a short micro usb charging cable. The earbuds are a decent size and don’t stand out too much. The elite active 65t has a 20 dollar premium over the standard 65t model because it comes with water resistance. That’s probably why it also comes in blue. For “water” resistance. Each earbud has a button. They have 5 hours of battery life when listening to music and an additional 10 in the charable case. Now lets talk about what you really want to hear, how these sound. I like the sound quality. The bass is deep, the mids aren’t muddy. I’m no audiophile by any means, but for my casual listening ears they sound absolutely fantastic and, unlike some other truly wireless earbuds, I found myself adjusting these very little once in my ear. They fit snuggly and isolate your music from the world and despite me wiggling my head around and head banging around like I’m too into some heavy metal music, the Jabra elite active 65t don’t fall out. The Jabra Sound+ companion app works with the earbuds decently. It provides some standard stuff like EQ changes, and access to their hearthrough feature. Which uses the Jabra elite active 65t’s mics to mimic outside noise and let you hear them more clearly. You can easily turn this on and off by double pressing the right earbud when connected to a smartphone. For some reason, I can’t use that feature on my macbook. It just doesn’t work.
Now onto the negatives, first off, let me say that the earbuds are great. They are amazing. BUT. The case holding them? Are utter garbage. Out of the only three truly wireless earbuds I’ve tried, this is the only one with a case that just can’t hold onto the earbuds. Like, flip the case upside down, and the earbuds just fall out. This makes these Jabra elite active 65t something you don’t want to take out if you’re active, because the chances of them falling out of the case and onto the ground is much higher. The case is decently small, that’s fine, but it’s also kind of hard to open, because of how its designed, and you can really only open it with one hand a very specific way. Otherwise, both hands are required. So, again, difficult operation if you’re in the middle of something. Next, the hearthrough feature at least on the active 65t, is not so great. External noise that people would want to hear, like voices, barely sound clearer, but noises no one wants to hear like a ceiling fan, or road noises, are much louder, making the hearthrough feature of these earbuds, practically useless.Lastly, this might just be a me problem, but after wearing them for around 30 minutes, my right ear starts hurting with these in. It doesn’t help that the right earbud controls play pause for music. Which means I’m pushing the earbud against my ear, causing more pain, to pause and play music. Great. Music is painful It also doesn’t help that the only way you can use one at a time, is by using the right one. You can’t use the left one along. So it’s either use the right one or both of them, guaranteeing me ear pain.
They have water resistance, and they form a nice seal in your ear. It’s just, the case for them sucks, they might hurt your ears if you have ears like mine, and the hearthrough feature doesn’t work well on these. But what do I think? They’re appealing to the right audience. These are a good earbuds choice for the gym, great sound, to drown out the people on weights grunting. Sound isolation to drown out the people on weights grunting, and sits in your ear snuggly to help you enjoy your music instead of the people on the weights grunting. If you’re looking for a pair of wireless earbuds for sport, these might be it. If you’re looking for something for your everyday use? These aren’t it.
