Jabra Elite 8 Active True Wireless Earbuds – Bluetooth Sports Earbuds with Secure in-Ear Fit for All-Day Comfort – Military Grade Durability, Active Noise Cancellation, Dolby…

These easily connected to my iPhone, iPad, and most important to my Cayin N3 mp3 player. Customizing the EQ was a breeze in the app. Turned off ANC and hear through. Just a waste of battery energy. The L sized ear gels do the job by blocking out approximately 40-50% of surrounding noise. These ear buds work better than my Loops. Connectivity and sound quality are key to me. I like to hear drums drumming, electric guitars screaming, singers singing in full blast.
Even on my N3 the volume output with these earbuds is pretty decent. Watching movies on my iPad has enhanced with the new acoustics. A full rounded sound with crisp highs and tolerable bass (no sub low frequencies are needed by my ears). I tried AirPods Pro 2 and Sennheiser Momentum and had to return them both. AirPods completely failed when trying to hear music with my N3, volume output loudness stayed in the lower end, could barely enjoy any hard rock theme and this kind of flimsy ribbon controller on the AirPod did not work at all. Sennheiser ear buds where not able to pair with each other, and Sennheiser usually are my favorite as a HD600 owner. So finally I tried this Danish design product. A full success.
EDIT Feb 21st: these earbuds are worth every cent. The Jabra Sound+ app does a Great Job here when adjusting my EQ preferences. After watching movies and listening to music for more than 4 hours, battery life of the buds still show 40%. Wow! I read the rave reviews about B&W earbuds and alike priced at $300+. Yeah, I agree, you can even pay a six digit amount for your audiophile components and I honestly would deeply regret that too. Who in the world honestly believes that your ears will appreciate such cost spent? I am a musician and I dare to say that I have an excellent hearing capability. My wife often wonders when I tell her about this nuance of a singer’s voice or the difference in velocities of how piano keys are played by different players. My Sennheiser HD 600 certainly makes a difference when compared with these no brand knock off products flooding the global market places. BUT compared with my HD 600, listening through my Jabra Elite 4 Active, the difference in sound quality is really marginal when it comes to rock, electronic music, folk, pop. Classical tunes are a different league, but still. Free range of walking around without getting messed up with cables dangling from headphones, what a true relief! I can put approximately ten meters distance between my in ear worn buds and my iPad before the connection starts to on/off/on. It’s not always this slogan “you get what you pay for”, because sometimes it is also the renommee (Hype, so to say) of very well established brands that dictate their price tag too. This Jabra design was made in Denmark, a small country where Bang and Olufsen is coming from. Totally overpriced products. When I hear BEO, my sound sense of cost spent says: sorry, not for me. Well, these Jabra earbuds still have to prove their durability. Time will tell. However, for now my level of satisfaction when it comes to listen music and watching movies is more than fine.

I’m giving 4 stars because there’s a lot to like about these ear buds.

Bluetooth seems to work as expected. The connection is clear and stable and has enough range that I can walk around in a large room without my phone and the connection stays stable.

The app that works with the ear buds is pretty cool. It’s smooth and efficient with enough options to make it a nice, uncomplicated app.

They fit in my ear very comfortably and look good too.

Here’s my issue though…. They Dont have enough volume, bass, or punch for my liking. I guess I’ve been spoiled by my Sony Wf-XB700 ear buds. They have all that. But I’m not here to promote another product.

If these ear buds had more volume, punch and bass then I would have considered them the most perfect ear buds I’ve ever owned. Especially for the price I paid. Not a bad price but the sound quality (only the sound quality) remind me of ear buds I’ve owned for half the price.

But I still give 4 stars because of all the other great qualities of these ear buds.
