Jabra - Elite 65e

I got some Elite 65e in 2019 and was happy with them up until this year. The rubber has broken and is not a replaceable part from jabra and the battery life is now poor. I got 5 good years out of them which is fair considering the price. Due to the fact their newer products seem to be less reliable (in my perception, at least) I will try a different manufacturer for my next earphones

By working out do you mean some weightlifting or more cardio stuff where you are actively moving around a lot? Or even Crossfit or something? Difference will be how much you need a pair that will need to really really stay put. My thing is more powerlifting, so its not a big deal for me I can wear pretty much any bud apart from on the bench and they wont move. So it expands choice a bit, but I do look for dust and water rating because weight lifting chalk. More movement I would say look at Jabra Elite

Jabra elites are incredible. On my second pair and they've lasted at least 2 years now.

1. Research this stuff online, compare and contrast your options 2. Google the exact model(s) you want/are interested in + Bangkok 3. Go to the store(s) that stock those model(s) I went with Jabra Elites

I have a horrible track record with electronics, and yet mine lasted years, and they didn't die, I just lost them

Jabra elite. Love it for running (snug) and ANC feature. Price point is reasonable.

I also have a pair of Jabra Elites. The AirPod pro 2s are so good it is no contest. Obvious downside is attachment to Apple ecosystem and some incompatibility with using as general Bluetooth device

Used to own Jabra elite but they are not in market anymore. Seinheiser MTW4 is good too

My experience was that they were great when they worked - but reliability was always pretty bad, and they wouldn't last more than 12-18 months at ost.

100%, I've struggled with finding a balance for good music, ANC, and comfort. Air pods are the GOAT IMO. I've had probably 4 different pairs of JBLs that work great but don't last long. Either the dust gets to them or the case stops charging the buds even when clean. I'm currently using Jabra Elites that are honestly great, though I wish they stayed in my ears better when I'm in weird positions. Edit: adding that I do not care about industry standards, my job isn't OSHA involved and has no actual safety standards enforced.

Honestly, given how often I lose earbuds and the battery issues, I stopped buying earbuds for longevity. I decide upon a price range and go with a company I recognise. My best pair has been a Jabra Elite. Unfortunately it seems they got rid of buttons. I hate how every company just releases update after update, with lessening improvements and higher prices.

Not at all, it's better to buy jabra elite Cheaper and more comfortable

Jabra is really good in a lot of ways but the poor codec support is a dealbreaker if you have Android. They sound like garbage with the older codecs. The ANC is also maybe 20% as good as the QC Ultra

I think I want these earphones. I've heard Isotunes suck, and some of the well recieved OSHA compliant earphones are stupid expensive so $220 ain't bad. I used to use Jabra Elites which I really liked, but using them while running a stump grinder made crazy loud and annoying feedback the whole time. I read that these headphones are very good with their ANC but I just wanna know if I can run a circular saw while using these and how well they will work for my residential contracting work? Thank you!

I'm a huge fan of the Jabra Elite I got on Amazon for around $60, they were on sale to boot.

Had airpods 2, today was my first training with airpods 4 anc. Everything sits in place. I don’t have pro version, because my ears don’t like that silicone thing. And i had jabra elite previously, and earbuds falled of during walking.

Agreed, you have to try several and pick a style that works for you. For me, the absolute best fit for my ears are the Samsung Buds Live, but they are the only ones that make that shape. 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.

I have the Jabra Elite with ANC and find it’s decent. Not complete noise cancellation but good enough.

Obviously way too many Apple fanboys/girls. CMF (Nothing) Buds Pro 2 are amazing value under £100 and with a unique control wheel on the case. The app is also super clean with Dirac and Spatial audio, they would easily be in the top 10 for me at any price. Sony XM are great but have premature battery failure issues. Jabra Elites are excellent if spending over £50. Samsung Buds Pro 3 are excellent under £100 with cashback offers. OnePlus and Huawei also severely underrated.

I saw Bone conductor headphones at Costco and I need a new pair they didn't have a display so i never bought them. I mostly use earbuds in the gym. I have Jabre elites right now but they are like 4 years old and the right speaker is almost out completely Not sure how I am supposed to buy newish tech without ever trying them before.

Agree with that I had to get my Elite replaced 3 times within warranty period and I always get complaints from people I call that the call is extremely noisy (usually doing house chores and stuff...) which led me to this post haha
