"I’m a very heavy sweater and have had ZERO issues. ... Everything else I’ve used a variety of brands and types and the sweat has killed them all. ... The Jabra’s are for treadmill, gym, high intensity intervals, or anywhere I sweat heavy"
"Bonus, waterproof'ish, can listen in shower."

"great noise cancelling"
"I tried them all standing next to my AC unit and running washing machine and dishwasher and the Jabra just seemed to use a better algorithm and/or mic."
"I have a pair of Jabra Elite 4 from 3 years ago that is hands down the best ANC I've tried so far."

"I have little ears, so its hard to find earbuds that fit and don't hurt"
"I have been using my jabra elites for years and have had zero slipping"
"I also have tiny ear canals and the Jabra Elites have worked well for me, they’re secure 95% of the time unless I’m REALLY sweaty, but then usually a quick remove-wipe-replace does the trick."

"The worst shape for me are the Jabra Elite / Sony WF-1000XM5 style that stick out way far from your ears. ... Never understood why they are designed to be so far outside your ear. ... Like you could never wear them with a bike or motorcycle helmet."
Silent_Insomnia_ 1.0I have Jabra elite 4 and while they do connect to my steam deck, the microphone functionality does not work… I can only hear things from my steam deck on them. Are you able to use the microphone on your jabra elite 4 when using the steam deck? When I go to the audio options screen, it only shows them as an output device, but not as an input device.
Abysstopheles 0.3Very happy w my Jabra 4s. Bonus, waterproof'ish, can listen in shower.
colaboy1998 0.3I use Jabra elite 4s and 7s, both work great, great sound, great noise cancelling.
ddcuisine 0.3Jabra Elite 4. Reasonably priced and if in a busy area I just wear one.
DontWalkRun 0.3Agreed. I've got a pair of Elite 4s and 75Ts. Both going strong. Just give the charging case and connector pins a clean every now and then.
Everyd4yAudioGuy 0.3If you liked the Jabra Elite 3, I’d say the closest all-around upgrade under $100 is the Soundcore Space A40. It’s got a balanced tuning with punchy bass, really compact shells that sit comfortably even on smaller ears, and a marathon battery life. If you want something super lightweight and simple, the Sony WF-C500 is a great option, very comfortable, clean sound, and no unnecessary frills. But if you want to stick with what you know, the Jabra Elite 4 is basically the natural successor to the Elite 3, with a similar fit and sound signature plus a few extras like multipoint and app EQ. Personally, I’d lean A40 first, WF-C500 if comfort is your top priority, and Elite 4 if you just want to stay in the Jabra ecosystem. And before you decide, try checking out the tuning on [audiotones.co](http://audiotones.co), it’s a handy way to get a feel for how these sets sound before you buy.
Extreme-Birthday-647 0.3Any music lovers know some good earbuds for 50-100€? I used to have Jabra Elite 4 and the sound quality was great, but they broke down. I bought some Galaxy Buds FE cause the reviews were good, most things about them are great except the elephant on the room... The sound quality is pretty ass. Now I can't find Jabra earbuds anymore online, anyone knows a good alternative? I mostly care about sound quality.
freshmonkey22 0.3Same here, originally had the Elite 6’s which died after the batteries seem to deteriorate rapidly. Bought the Elite 4’s to replace them, got a great black Friday deal on Amazon, they’ve been faultless for the past year or so. I use them for all sorts - running, gym, watching TV, hands free for phone and Teams calls. Highly recommend.
GrandMarshallFunk 0.3Jabra elite 4. Connects to multiple devices seamlessly.
I have not had a reason to use the microphone on my SD so I'm not sure.
JJMcGee83 0.3I have a pair of Jabra Elite 4 from 3 years ago that is hands down the best ANC I've tried so far. But they are getting old, Jabra exited the earbud market so support is scarce (they don't seem to be recognized by their app anymore.) so I'm looking for replacements. I tried the Sony WF-XM5s and Sony WF-C710N and despite both being well reviewd I personally found the audio profile in both to not be to my liking and the ANC to be weak enough to not even really be useful. Honestly it's kind of insane to me how well reviewed the XM5s because for the money they weren't worth it IMO. I've liked JLab stuff in the past so I tried JLab JBuds Pods ANC & JLab Epic Lab Edition and while I found the audio in both to be to my taste the ANC in the JBuds wasn't very good and the Epic Lab was better but still not as good as the 3 year old Jabra. I tried the Creative Aurvana Ace 2 based on Soundguys review and while the audio was good and the ANC was ok they arrived defective and started All 5 pairs I've tried also had a case that was awkward to get the earbuds out of them. I use an Android phone so I have no desire for Apple Airpods. What other options are there out there with good ANC?
