Jabra Elite Sport Earbuds – Waterproof Fitness & Running Earbuds with Heart Rate and Activity Tracker, True Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds with Superior Sound, Advanced Connectivity and Charging Case

Waterproof, easy to use, occasionally don’t have both work at the same time.
I love these! I had originally pre-ordered Kanoa headphones… And then the whole Kanoa deal happened. Sooo I was looking for something robust and of good quality. I ended up going with these. Why?1. I wanted something waterproof: I found out that I have no problem washing these off after a run -still have yet to try swimming with them.2. I wanted controls on the headphones: I searched through a bunch of cheaper headphones and noticed that many didn’t have controls on them. The Jabras have button controls directly on the outside. Some people don’t like the fact that these are push buttons -you kind of push the headphones into your ear while using them. I don’t have any issues with this because you don’t need a hard push…the only time I’ve noticed any discomfort is when trying to operate the buttons while they’re under my hat.3. I wanted something that would stay in my ears no matter what: Another negative that I read before purchasing these was that they didn’t fit all shapes of ears correctly. However they fit mine in a way that I knew was secure.The fit does take a bit of getting used to and originally my ears had hurt after a few hours of continuous use. (This was similar to when I started using my Samsung Level U headphones a few years ago.) Now the Jabras fit perfectly fine and I love them.4. I wanted good sound quality: I have no problem with the sound quality on these. Is it top notch? No -my roommate’s Beats headphones (wireless but not wirefree) can get much louder and do have better sound. With that being said, I don’t listen to my headphones with the volume all the way up -so maximum volume is completely pointless to me. I normally keep these on mid range (during a busy NYC subway ride or loud area). The sound isolation is very very good on them.Extras: The microphone on these works pretty well. In a quiet area, I can have a phone conversation without issue. When there’s noise, the person on the other line can hear everything around me. This makes sense though because these headphones aren’t like my voyager legend Bluetooth that has multiple microphones for noise cancelation.Additionally, the microphones are used to allow you to turn off noise isolation. This works well but it can sometimes be hard to hear people with the headphones on. This brings me to my next extra: when I remove the right earbud from my ear it’ll automatically pause a song that’s playing -love it! The only downside is that 2 people can’t listen to music at the same time with these.Additionally the heart rate sensor seems to work well and I’ve done the V02 test through the app -occasionally I need to readjust the headphones but no issues here.The battery lasts me plenty. I don’t notice myself having to charge my headphones super frequently and the case will tell you when it’s getting low on power.The downsides:The only bad thing I’ve noticed with these is that on occasion the right headphone will turn on and not the left. All I need to do is put both back in the case, close it, and wait for the front lights to turn on -then off- and reopen it. Usually they’ll both work fine after (just gotta make sure each blinks green when the case is opened).So I’d say a great product considering this is a fairly new market!!

Pro:- crisp sound quality- decent range of reception- small and convenient- comforting feel in the ear- modernized design to the carrying case- decently priced (lightning deal)Con:- because of the small size, easy to misplaceOverall:The size of the earbuds are fine, sound is clear and crisp. Although if you lose one ear, then you have to buy an entirely new pair. But there have been no issues with connecting to the Bluetooth.4.7/5.0

I was looking for a pair of bluetooth headphones that I could wear while running or at the gym. Did a ton of research, and finally ended up choosing the Jabra Elite Sport. Overall, I’m quite happy with the purchase. More details below:Pros:1) Great sound. I know they are not noise canceling, but the sound is full enough and powerful enough where it almost seems like they are. I have a couple of noise canceling Bose headphones, a Grado, and a Sennheiser, so I know what “good” headphones sound like, and these are quite ok compared to those. And, most importantly, they are loud enough to block out the annoying music they play in the gym, which is a big plus for me.2) They look good. They don’t stick out of your ear or look like hearing aids like a lot of headphones. The Bose Sound Sport Headphones just look stupid, in my opinion. I tried them on and they stick out of your ear so much you look like you have Shrek-like ears. These meld in, don’t stick out beyond the ear, and look unobtrusive. And they are fit snug enough where they will never ever fall out.3) Features: Can answer calls, change tracks, increase or decrease volume from the headphones itself. Quick and simple set up.Cons:1) Fit can be tricky. They come with a number of ear ear fins and plugs that allow you to customize the fit, so I would encourage all users to try a bunch of combinations before settling on the right one. But regardless, I can only wear these for about 90 minutes (and I had to build up to that) before they start hurting. But that’s ok — these are not meant to be the headphones you wear at home while watching a movie or on a plane for several hours. They are meant for working out, and for that period of time, they work well.2) If you take the right headphone out, the left one stops working as well. I don’t know why that had to be the case. They couldn’t design it so both headphones work independently of the other?3) Price. I think they are worth it, but if they reduce price by 2-3k below the Amazon discounted price, I think they would fly off the shelves.Also — Set up is quick and simple. Battery life is long enough. They come with an app for your phone that can measure V02 max and all that, but I’ve never used it. That doesn’t mean it’s no good, but I just didn’t feel the need to.Overall, I’m quite happy with the purchase. They are great for the use case, which is for wear while working out. Do not buy them as the headphones you want to wear while watching a movie, or on a long flight, or that 3 hour phone call. They aren’t meant for that. If you use them for what they are meant for, they are great.

I tried a bunch of wireless ear bud and these are the only one I found that stays secured when I’m at the gym. The sound quality is not good especially for the price but I use them for podcasts so it’s not a bid deal.I gave 1 star because of the over packaging. It is a box in a box in a box and those boxes are way to big for no reason. Company should start making more sustainable packaging. Nobody cares about packaging as long as it protect the product during shipping and the product is good.
