"Jabra elites are incredible. ... On my second pair and they've lasted at least 2 years now."
"I've had Jabra 65t since 2018. It might be the longest any electronic device has lasted me. ... Used pretty much on every gym session 3-4x times a week."
"Miss mine so much after four years of heavy use (and were bought second hand anyway) they finally stopped holding a charge."

"they’ve never fallen out of my ears while being active - they actually turn off when they’re almost accidentally wiggled loose after a long intense training sesh."
"I loved my 65t for working out because they were locked into my ear and never budged. ... I loved my 65t because they never budged while exercising."
"Absolutely agree! ... I don’t even have problems doing double unders with them"

"They have "hear through mode" that allows me to hear outside noise while I am riding."
"I'm currently using Jabra Elites that are honestly great ... earbuds allow just enough noise I can hear other people talking to me and hear the hum of my machines but still reduce my overall noise load. ... I use them daily around 100-115dB worth of noise."
"I prefer the Jabras on my weekday short runs that end up being along streets with traffic because the noise from the cars drowns out the music with Shokz."

"after about 6 months of use, the battery life fell off dramatically. ... I'm lucky if I get 45 minutes out of a full charge. ... This battery issue affected both sets of Elite 65t earbuds."
"I've killed too many of them with sweat ... it'd be cool if they didn't break instead."
"reliability was always pretty bad ... they wouldn't last more than 12-18 months at ost."

"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."
"one day I lost a bud while running"
"I wish they stayed in my ears better when I'm in weird positions."

"the bass was non-existent which sucked"
ArtemisAetherion 1.0I have a couple pair of the Jabra Elite Active 65T. They are my favorite pair of headphones I've ever owned.
gespenst_mk2 1.0I used to have Jabra Elite Active 65T (yeah, ancient antique now) but sadly Jabra withdraw from Singapore market. You may still able to get it but no more after sales support. End up I got Sennheiser Momentum TW4 for upgrade. Serving me well so far with improve sound quality.
goingfast7 1.0I've been running in Jabra active elite since 65t, up through elite active 8. I've had 7 pair of Jabra headphones, mostly because eventually one doesn't work or I lose one. They have been great, and stay simultaneously paired to both of my phones at the same time. Jabra is getting out of the headphones businesses. I tried beats, Samsung buds pro 3(have to push back in my ears every 45 seconds on a trail run), and now shocks open air 2+ I just ran my last 100 with the shokz and they were great. Never heart, I could pause them and have a complete conversation with people without removing them. I never have to adjust them. They also connect to both of my phones simultaneously unlike anything except the Jabra ever did. Got my wife a pair of the open air 2 when they were $125 on Amazon. Very comfortable. I wear my Bluetooth headsets 20+ times a day while taking phone calls, so they're in and out of my case always, good sound quality, and so far they're pretty durable.
gozza888 1.0I use an old pair of Jabra Elite Active 65t because they literally fit my ears perfectly. I can keep them in all day without discomfort. The only problem is the battery life isn't great and my battery case life is starting to deteriorate significantly.
grilledcheesybreezy 1.0Im coming from Jabra 65T active elites that are 5 years old. I need to upgrade but can confirm Jabra's are great
HelicopterWonderful9 1.0I have the Elite 10s and really don’t like them much. Just my opinion though. They are super slow to connect to my devices when they first turn on and I hate the triangular tips. Loved my elite active 65s though.
Human-Salamander-676 1.0I've had the Jabra Elite Active 65t for years and they haven't disappointed me. I'm sure there's a newer and better version out now. Stay in ears pretty well and the hear through technology is pretty good.
jajaja1969 1.0Wondering about the same thing. Just went from Jabra active 65t to OnePlus Buds 3 Pro, men the OnePlus didn't fit my ear, so now I'm looking for something else. Maybe I should just keep on going with jabra? Who's the best?
Jester41K 1.0Did you ever find a comparable replacement? I loved my 65t for working out because they were locked into my ear and never budged.
I loved my 65t because they never budged while exercising. Do the Elite 10s have the same feel?
Kata-cool-i 1.0Everybodies ears are different, so what is comfortable for me may not be for you and so take this with a grain of salt. Also I rarely use ANC, so Ill try not to comment on that too much. I have used a handful of Jabra models in the past, the 65t active, the 75t active and active 7, all of which I liked. I recently got a pair of Bose QC Ultra 2s, but these were so uncomfortable I could only wear them for 30mins at a time. I returned them and got the nothing ear 3s, which aren't as uncomfortable, but not a secure fit, I also find the audio quality lackluster, though the ANC does seem decent, though I rarely use it. I also have a pair of Denon Perls, which are a much better fit, and audio quality is good (though I would recommend upgrading to the pros). I also got a pair of AZ80s, which I find to be the best fit and sound quality overall.
