"I put them in my ear, put the helmet on, then do one final “push” with my finger to seat them in my ear for the ride. ... The batteries die before they work out of my ear."
"they are so comfortable that both I and my husband have had to feel our ears to check whether we were still wearing them."
"Also super bonus I've never head banged with earphones this hard besides with these soundcores, they stick to me like glue even when I'm in a metal mood and I'm headbanging for a good hour."

"Been using them for about four years working out in my gym, and cycling daily (45+ minutes on a bicycle outdoors)."
"They last absolutely forever (I know 1980s models still in daily use)"

"Have run 3 half's and 2 fulls, never have ran out of battery provided they are properly charged beforehand."
"I use it for the same reasons and love it. ... I would not consider the regular Apple Watch because of battery life."
"the battery life easily lasts 10+ hours."

"The noise-reduction on these is really remarkable, both as a listener, but especially for the other person on a phone call. I can finally walk along the beach, with wind blowing in from the ocean, and people can hear and understand me clearly! That is what set me on a quest to find new earbuds, and Huawei freebuds pro 3 deliver! ... I can ride my bike in wind and traffic noise, listening to music or podcasts, and then answer a phone call without missing a beat, and the other person can hear me clearly. ... If you are looking for an earbud that will let you ride your bike on the boardwark, with ocean wind and people and traffic, and take calls effortlessly, where people can hear you clearly without having to stop or find shelter or hold your phone closer...the Huawei freebuds pro 3 are the way to go. ... So, yes. I am still happy with them, and they are awesome at being able to have a coherent conversation even while walking along a windy, noisy beach."
"A very nice phone quality with the best ANC phone call noise block ever seen in the world."
"I wanted really good call quality because I take a lot of calls when I'm on a call in central City, and they have been amazing. ... I take a call in a cafe full of people and crying kids and the other person can't hear a thing"

"those physical buttons are SO much better than touch, swipe, pinch and just anything else. ... Like, want to adjust volume through your hat with gloves on riding your bike? no problem at all"
"physical buttons are far superior to touch or swipe gestures during workouts (think sweaty hands or gloves during the cold season). ... Pressing physical buttons can be done without even looking at the watch, whereas touch gestures require a high degree of dexterity."
"Button operation is also a big plug for the Garmins. After pouring a few cups of water over your head, touch control of the Apple Watch doesn't work well anymore."

"USE THE STOCK ONES, any other tip I tried outside the stock ones, really make the ANC WAY worse, by 60% I would say, and it’s not an exaggeration"
"having somewhat of a shittier ANC. ... For the use of buses or even home, don't even think about it, the ANC goes crazy with the sound of the engine and the passive noise reduction is almost non present. ... I'd rather not having headphones in the bus and actively listen to the engine than to have these headphones and having to actually listen to the engine as well + weird ANC noises + doghsit quality audio. ... this newer model somehow improves in actually nothing and somehow got an even worse ANC even though the first already barely even had at all. ... ANC: it does contain it, but it does not contain it. ... Bluetooth buds have one purpose which is having ANC, and sounding slightly good. These couldn't even deliver on that."
"they are not noise canceling"

"The sound coming from the TOZOs sounded "anemic as fuck" and I couldn't get them to sound anywhere as loud and powerful as the others."
"The nc9 had no volume or bass even after adjusting the eq,"
"found them very quiet ... On my PC or on my IPhone."

"way too bright. ... The source doesn't matter, being it a desk amp or a usb dongle"

"They apparently are not making any more versions which sucks"
"Jabra also stopped their earbuds division so it won't get new updates anymore."
Oh no!! Yeah my Jabra Elites have been so good for about 7 years. Was thinking of upgrading soon but this is a spanner
r/trailrunning • Running headphones ->I'm currently using the Jabra Elite 10, and they’ve been fantastic. The fit is excellent—they stay in place even during workouts. I previously tried the Pixel Buds Pro, but the fit wasn’t great for me. With the Elite 10, I never have to worry about them falling out, making them a perfect choice for both everyday use and exercise.
r/GooglePixel • What earbuds are you guys using with your Pixel? ->Jabra Elite here as well. I do about 1K miles/year, nearly all urban streets and nearly all with sound canceling (it’s never good enough to block all noise). Especially with electric cars, it’s about eyes and defensive running period. Ears are important, sure. But in the quiet electric era (or in cities with scooters and bikes cultures), I find myself looking way more than listening. I’ve been dense urban area running for 15+ years (think NYC and the like), and the change is real. I know the consensus is anti-sound canceling or anti-earbud and even anti-music. But I’ve run a ridiculous amount of miles over the years and music is a big part is my running. But to be fair, I chose my headphones based on battery life. Once I had a marathon go wrong and my headphones died at 3.5 hours and I limped to a 5 hour walking finish. Damn, even a touch of music might have helped the struggle. Best of luck!
r/Marathon_Training • Best running earbuds ->I have small ears and the Elite 7's smallest size fit my ears perfectly. I could move any with confidence that they wouldn't fall out. The Elite 10 is a touch big for me so I don't have the same confidence but they fit none the less, I would just prefer a tighter fit
r/Jabra • Jabra Elite 10 for small ears? ->Jabra 75t sounds amazing. Best buds also have elite 10s, not as good anc poir
r/Earbuds • What’s everyone’s favorite premium earbuds ->You can snag the jabras 10 if you're commuting and care about talking, 8 if you're active. They say they are discontinuing their earbuds line but 1. It'll be back 2. I still have every set I've ever owned and haven't had any issues. If you get 2 years out of them at 169 that about .25 cents per day. Great deal for great use but they'll last longer.
r/Earbuds • Any good wireless earbuds on a budget? Sick of Raycon ->I have and had Perl Pro, AZ80, Elite 10. I also wanted to try MTW4 but i have the momentum 4 headphones. For some reason whenever i want to do critical listening i always reach for my az80s.
r/Earbuds • The Very Best Earbuds to Buy? Recommendations and Comparisons ->Jabra Elite 10 Gen 1 - satisfied with these, anc, battery life, sound, microphone and fit all are good.
r/onebag • What earbuds/headphones do you use? ->I got my Jabra Elite 10’s online. They’re fantastic and have excellent battery life. I got some Azla eartips which makes the ANC 5x better.
r/AussieFrugal • Wireless earbuds ->I have also been thinking this, I'd say get anything that works. Closed Backs with ANC are probably your friend here. Also Bose is quite expensive....I have used Jabra Elites pretty good.
