From initial delivery, I was impressed with how easy it was to set up and pair the headphones with my phone. The Sound+ app that you need for connecting is easy to use and steps you through the process. You can customise the button presses on each bud individually, with a 1, 2 and 3 press option and differing between listening to media and during calls. The hear through functionality is great too, being able to turn on the feature which then allows you to hear the things around you is brilliant, it has a slider to allow customisation of the amount of sound it allows through. This functionality again is able to be added to the bud buttons, allowing it to be turned on and off. The fit of the buds is very comfortable, and also my wife found them very comfortable. Staying easily in the ear even during exercise, with great sound. The equaliser in the app allows you to adjust various aspects of the sound or select from you presets. The buds is packed with functionality, which auto pauses your music should you remove any of them from your ears, and will automatically resume should you put them back. Also having your voice assistant usable by the buds adds extra benefit. Battery life so far has been great, with the case constantly keeping my buds at 100%, and such an easy system with them automatically charging every time you put them back in their box.
I received this product as part of a review program in return for an unbiased review. The earbuds are so convenient and easy to use once you get familiar to its function. Having Alexa Voice control helps a lot when you have disabilities and safety wise too. I would love to test the headphones which I saw in the shape. I use it for answering calls instead of having the phone on speaker. The battery life is fantastic lasts 3 days for me. The quality and the weight is great for someone who’s disabled and have difficulty to use. Having tested the Earbuds I am more curious to try other products created by JABRA.
I’ve been using it daily for the past 2 weeks and the noise isolation from the earbuds is awesome. When you switch on hearThrough feature you realized how much sound it blocks out. I have used them for work and personal calls, jogging and listeningto media and they perform brilliantly. The battery life is incredible! I plugged the charger into my case omky once so far and they’ve still got plenty of juice left. The music is clear with good base, the app Sound+ is well designed and easy to navigate. The button on the earbuds is easy to press, double click the right will activate voice control, single press the left will turn on and off hear through and single press the right will start and stop media. Voice control allows you to speak to your phone assistant through the earbuds, which is really handy when you need information but you want to do it hands free. Over all I would recommend these truly wireless earbuds to anyone looking for a brilliant experience, good sound and high quality.
I would never normally purchase earphones at this price point, but this was a great opportunity to test the premium end of the market. All I can say is WOW! I thought I had a great sound from my Skullcandy earphones, but the Jabra Elite 75T are vastly superior in every single way. Upon listening to my favourite albums I was hearing things I’d never noticed before, with a richness never achieved previously. The app is excellent, it even has an audio test to set up your earphones specially for your own hearing range. Very clever and something totally unexpected. I would have liked the button controls to include a volume up/down option. Perhaps this already exists, but I couldn’t see anything relating to this on the app. Altogether these are exceptional earphones, comfy to wear for many hours, with an amazing sound and a great app. Although expensive, they are worth the price in my eyes for the quality of the product.
Edit: I failed to realise that changing the volume is as simple as pressing and holding the buttons.

A step up on the 65t.
Having owned some Jabra 65t headphones which I lost to my son after his Apple pods broke, plus he preferred the Jabras for exercise. I decided that I would try the new 75t. They are smaller but from the case to the ears they’re quality. I have also got Bose QC II. But like the comfort of these for walks and at bedtime. They have a good sound for me and my musical tastes and they are in my opinion more comfortable than the 65t. I am an Apple person but would find that the apple pods would drop from my ears. These are perfect for my ears and for being held within. I use the medium gel buds and it is good for blocking noise and comfort. It does come with 2 other buds a small and a large. The charging case is compact and is easier to open that my 65ts were. Headphones last about 5 hours and I get all the recharges I need from the case. Another great Jabra product in my opinion.
Tried the powerbeats pro’s and returned them. Issues with charging and cutting out when running. Just a really bad experience.
Decided to give these a go after some really positive reviews and wish I’d have got these first.
Always been worried about the in-ear type earphones falling out when running, which is why I went for the hook type powerbeats pros first, but these fit snuggly and stay secure. I’ve done some full on hour long sweaty HiiT sessions and they stay secure.
They don’t have active noise cancellation (YET) but the buds fit so snuggly that it cuts out most external noise anyway. These have a really useful passthrough feature where you can decide how much external noise is fed through to you from the external mic’s. Great for in the gym when I want to shut everything out and just train and then if I’m running outside on the road and what to have some surrounding noise let in you can do that also.
Sound quality is great, again much better than the powerbeat pro’s for me, again mainly because of the snugg fit. You can also adjust the sound with a graphic equaliser in the app to get it how you like it. It also does a sound test to tune the sound to your individual hearing.
Had no issues with battery life from the buds or charging and no issues with any bluetooth connectivity even when on treadmills where some have reported interference from the motors etc.
Cannot recommend these highly enough.

The quality of the sound is great; the functionality is great (particularly the “hear through”) and they are very comfortable to wear. So why one star deducted? Well, I was looking for a wireless headphone set that I could wear with my motorcycle helmet so that I can hear my sat-nav speaking when I do those (post covid) scenic trips round the UK. It looked like this product would do the job, but they stick out just enough to pull out of my ears when I take the helmet off and they end up on the floor.
I have loved wireless bluetooth earbuds since they first come out. I must have bought 5 or 6 of the cheap ones ranging from 20 to 40 . Its hit and miss when you are shopping at that price range so I decided to get a quality pair. These are just that. Great amount of bass if needed which is usually the downfall of the cheaper brands.
Jabra seem a really quality brand to deal with. The whole package just oozes quality. The buds themselves are so easy to use straight out the box but the sound+ app makes it easy to tweak the settings. A bit disappointed that they’ve dropped the alexa option but hey ho. I believe there will be an update to the firmware that will allow this model to have active noise cancellation which I’m looking forward to. To be honest though the seal is that good that you might not use it. The pass through button is really useful on these if you need to hear your environment. You can alter it to pause the music at the same time in the settings.
I highly recommend these quality earbuds and look forward to trying out other Jabra products in the future.

I have been using these earbuds for 6 months and am now editing my review because ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) was added via a software update by Jabra shortly after I bought them. If you’re considering buying a pair now, I understand it’s already incorporated. In my original review I was less than enthusiastic about the noise cancellation, but it is now most effective. The rest of my review remains unchanged: These earbuds are surprisingly comfortable to wear for long periods plus the quality of audio they create is astonishingly good. There’s more than enough powerful low bass to keep this bass guitarist happy. That’s more than I can say for the rather more expensive Shure 535s that these Jabra Elite 75s now replace. What’s more the overall audio balance from top end through middle to bass is awesomely accurate and revealing. Can’t say I’ve ever heard Anthony Jackson’s bass guitar on The O’Jays ‘For The Love Of Money’ sounding so detailed and powerful. Same goes for the top end clarity of the breathy guitars, keys and trumpet on David Sylvian’s ‘Nostalgia’ from his ‘Brilliant Trees’ album. Then there is the sheer quality of Gregory Porter’s voice on ‘Revival’ and ‘Concorde’ that I’m listening to right now from his latest album ‘All Rise’. Do I like these Jabra Elite 75t Earbud’s? You bet!
The headphones arrived well packed; the packaging looked very modern. The headphones and charging holder looked very sleek and very presented. Setting up the headphones was extremely easy using the smartphone app, I think the Jabra Sound+ smartphone app is excellent setting up the MySound hearing profile is a great option to set the headphones to each person hearing levels.
The functions available via the smartphone app are equally excellent, I love the moments setting having present levels for a different use, the HearThrough sound modes is another excellent when out conducting activity the HearThrough enables the sound in your surrounding area to be fed through, the was great when hearing for car or out people around me however does also amplify the wind noise the volume of the HearThough can be adjusted and wind noise of a bicycle is avoidable.
The sound quality through the headphone is great I like the music equalizer for manual adjustments or present music levels for different types of the music of listens preferences, the soundscape is another interesting feature giving the available of playing background sounds such as rainfall, waves, etc.
The gestures are very helpful, I like the mute/ pause whatever is playing when one earphone is removed, I like to available setting of the functions buttons on each earphone, however, I haven’t used this to it fullest as the single press works well but when I am conducting activity the multiple presses ends in me trying not to knock them out.
The headphones are a good fit when using but at times when moving around the headphones have fallen out.
I like the fact the battery level indicator light aluminate when the charging box is opened.
Finally, I feel the headphone are excellent, but we are paying the price for a great bit of kit.
After a bit of use, I have noticed that the headphones do fall out when I am active and moving my head.
I am enjoying getting to know these headphones. The sound quality is very good and they look slick and are comfortable in the ear. The battery life is good for what I require and the case charges up impressively quickly so if you do run out, it won’t be for long.
One drawback I am having to get used to is that I use an android phone and they will often connect for calls only as opposed to calls and audio, so you need to be sure audio is connected else it will come out loud from your phone speaker. I have never had wireless buds before though so this may just be what always happens.
Good buy, would not say best, definitely scope for improvement.
The earphones are good quality and works for long hours as claimed by Jabra. However, the microphone doesnot work with gaming apps which I feel is a downside. Tried contacting customer service, but they suggested that just try updating earphones but there was still no guarantee it would work as the gaming app is not a jabra app (it did not work) – most absurd response received in a long time. One of the buds do pinch the ear buds over prolonged use for more than an hour or so. Would definitely have liked to see it work seemlessly considering the price charged. Happy with the rest of it like shape, size, portability – sound quality is satisfactory.

After my 65t’s died (full refund from Amazon) I needed a replacement.
The headphones were bought as a gift for my 16yr old son.
He said they fit and sound better than the 65t.
I could have got these much cheaper on ebay but that would have no warranty. So after having a pair that died on me after 14 months it makes sense to pay and get legit warranty.
5 stars.
Update 29 Jan 2021:
The 75T’s developed a fault and the left ear emitted a strange hiss and humming sound.
My son had used these a few times per week. Amazon offered me a refund or a new pair. I gladly had another paid as my son said there were pretty darn good.
Thank you Amazon!
Update dec 1st 2021.
The second pair have died and amazon have stepped in.
My son loves these but this is the second pair to go belly up.
Thank god i bought them on Amazon.
Firstly, the case is a slimline box which slips easily into your pocket without the bulkiness making them easy to carry around. The magnets both on the box opening and inside it ensure the earphones are kept safely in place, no worry of them falling out and getting lost! The ergonomic design of the earphones and the soft rubber tips mean they fit comfortably in the ear and feel secure once in even when gymming or playing sports etc. Previous ones have caused me to continuously adjust them to ensure they don’t fall out. The Jabra sound plus app was installed was no issues and it’s in an easy to follow format. It enables some great features too such as ‘Hear Through’, essentially the opposite of noise cancellation, so you can have a conversation without having to switch off your music. Another great feature is ‘My Sound’ which is your own personal fine-tuned profile according to your hearing sensitivity so you always get clear sound quality. The sound is excellent with a good balance of medium-range and bass but the equalizer can also be adjusted on the app to your liking. On the earphones themselves there is also a handy play/pause button if you need it and a useful green LED displayed on the earphones shows they are charged and ready to go. They are priced at the upper end of the market but if you care about great sound quality, style and comfort then these cant be faulted.
I brought the 75t Ear Buds to replace a Plantronics Legend which failed in the same way 3 other units I had failed; rubber round ear split. I found the the 75t’s build quality, functionality and controls are excellent and battery life is very good. Sound quality is OK and noise cancelling is not bad considering it is only passive. However, I did experience a couple of problems . There were brief dropouts of audio. The biggest problem was the units would drop out of my ears without much notice no matter how I forced them into my ears; so you have to be very careful with them and reseat them occasionally.
Wireless earphones are the next thing and Jabra has created an excellent pair with sporty users in mind. Whilst wearing them, I have gone for runs, had several gym workouts and long walks and can confidently say these work great. They are also very light and compact so don’t feel at all uncomfortable. AND the noise cancelling works! It works. No more hearing that awful gym music in the background. Just your own tunes which sound great. Bass is decent and sound is clear. I’m still getting used to the different button combinations which is new to me but I’m very happy that they have them. Being able to pause the song, change volume, skip song, repeat, toggle hear through (a very useful feature which allows you to hear sounds around you) and more, by simply pressing the button (either side with different combinations) is so useful and allows you to minimise how often you have to reach for your phone. I got the black version and they look stylish and discreet. The charging case is compact but holds enough charge to recharge the buds several times. Overall they are great and highly recommended.
These earbuds are truly fantastic! I have used them a number of times whilst on the treadmill, running outdoors and during weight lifting sessions. They stay in place really well, even with a lot of body movement. The size and shape of the earbuds means very little sweat reaches them, although doesn’t cause any problems when it does. The noise cancelling feature is great, I can’t even hear the beeps from the treadmill when adjusting speed etc. . Then you have the “hear through” feature which, when switched on, allows you to hear what’s going on around you whilst listening to music. The sound quality and range of sound are excellent! They are brilliant for making/receiving phone calls. There’s no crackling, sidetone or drop in sound which is especially great when calling on the move. The little wireless storage/charging pod is a nice, convenient touch. Place the buds in, when not in use and they’re ready to go the next time you need them . Overall I’m delighted with my purchase and would recommend to anyone in need of a good set of fairly priced earbuds.

These are the best true wireless earbuds I have owned so far, and I’ve owned 5 pairs of multiple brands. I was replacing my faulty Soundcore earbuds for my sport sessions as well as for work calls, and so I decided to go upmarket to see if the quality improved with the price. And I must say, you get what you pay for!
These sound amazing, and fit snuggly without any “earblades” or any similar contraption required. I run and cycle with these (main reason I bough these was for their sweat-proof design) and I have not lost one yet!
The ability for the buds to connect to two devices concurrently is super useful and the source seamlessly moves to the device that is actively outputing sound. I keep these synced to my laptop for work calls, and to my iPad for running on the treadmill, and I have not got a single connection issue. I can connect to my mobile to update the firmware, change settings and of course to listen to audio, but normally I stick to the other two devices.
I prefer these to my Samsung Buds, and like them, the case on the Elite model supports wireless charging as shown in one of the photos. It’s a bit fiddly to find the optimal charging location with my Samsung charge pad, but it works. And of course the case can be charged via USB-C cable.
Overall this is a great piece of tech, solid quality and comfortable fit. Highly recommended!
These headphones are awesome. The sound is great, hear through is a very neat feature, they are very snug even through sustained HIIT sessions and the sweat resistance truly works. The voice quality is very good and makes phone calls/online meetings just as good. The battery life is excellent and the compact charging case holds an amazing amount of charge. Hands down, the best wireless earbuds I have ever had.
I have used Jabra before so was expecting good quality. I wasn’t disappointed. The headphones were well packaged in a quality box. The headphones were easy to setup and pair with my phone after needing to download the app first which might not have been necessary but it had interesting information on the app about the headphones sound profiles and how it can be used so was worthwhile for me. After using the headphones in a variety of scenarios, the only downside I had were at times when my phone was in my pocket the headphones lost connection and became choppy but this only happened rarely. If I could change anything it would be to have an easier way to turn off the headphones without putting them back in their box or the twin push of both ear phones. Overall I am happy with my purchase.
I can summarise these earbuds in one word – QUALITY! From the first moment I opened the packaging I noticed it. When compared to the cheaper (30) generic set of Chinese earbuds I bought from Amazon (you know the ones…) the carry/charging case had a noticeably smaller footprint, sleeker shape and was made of much higher quality plastic/rubber feeling material than the flat black plastic of the cheapo pair, the sleeker shape and smaller footprint made them much more pocket-able when travelling. The quality of the charging case also made me consider that the actual battery pack inside the case would most likely be of a higher quality than that contained in the cheaper set, which when I’m carrying it around in my pocket could be a genuine concern if it ever caught fire or something.
Moving onto the earbuds themselves, first impressions were that they had a very “premium” look about them, you could see the holes cut into them for the microphones to handle calls and came bundled with 3 different sizes of rubber adapters for different ear sizes which is pretty standard. They also feature a large button on each bud that controls various functions such as pause, play, skip etc. and various assistant functions like google and siri.
An area where I always though these wireless earbuds would fall flat when compared to my over-ear headphones was noise cancellation, how could such small ear buds that go inside the ear really match those that cover the ear completely? I would place them somewhere between my over-ear headphones (that cost 3x the price!) and the generic set I bought, but certainly very close to the over-ear headphones. Traffic, wind and even my partner trying to talk to me in the same room (I’ll leave you to decide whether that’s a “must have” feature or not) are completely inaudible when the earbuds are fully inserted. One very nifty feature that is also present in this set as well as my over-ear headphone is the ability to activate a “hear-through” mode, which uses the in-built microphones to transmit the sound through the headphones. Essentially it allows you to have a conversation and hear the other person perfectly without the need to remove your earbuds.
The only negative I feel these headphone have is also part of a nifty feature they have above my generic ones, which is when you remove one of the earbuds this is detected and the music is paused automatically. This means you can only use the right earbud solo, not the left.

It was slightly awkward to get them out of the packaging but then everything afterwards was a breeze. I tried them in my ear and found the attached ear protector was slightly too big, and so I swapped it with one of the other sizes provided and I was good to go.
Downloading the sound + app and then setting up MySound was easy. I have to say I am very impressed with the sound quality of these headphones, they fit really well and the tone and base are very good. I’ve been for countless runs with them in and they stay in place. Although they don’t have active noise cancellation, you wouldn’t know as they block out any passive noise with ease. They also have a hearthrough mode which is easily activated with a tap in case you do want to hear your surroundings. Overall I would give these headphones 5/5 and am looking forward to continuting to use them.
I was very impressed by the stylish and very practical packaging of these ear buds, I am just about to connect my ear buds to my smart phone, so another report/review very soon – all good so far though 🙂
I have now had these for a few weeks so have tested them and I am very impressed. Setting them up and getting them connected to my smart phone was very easy, you just have to add the app and you are then instructed how to pair them to your device.
The first thing I did was listen to some of my music from my Spotify account. I found the ear buds provided great quality sound with no loss of connection throughout.
I then received a few calls through them which was an amazing experience. Receiving calls via the ear buds rather than my smart phone was so much clearer with no drop out in my connection (as is usually the case with my phone). Interestingly I am very slightly deaf (I think in both ears), well the ear buds definitely make for a better experience if you do have any loss of hearing.
I think these are a great pair of good quality, affordable earbuds that can bu used in a number of different situations and environments. Last but certainly not least, their battery power is amazing! I would wholeheartedly recommend them to my friends.
Accessing the headphones and case, the process for charging to capacity and then using them was done in no time. Very easy through the USB-C charging point with the coloured lights on the back of the case showing full charge. Recharging once used is also fast and very convenient.
The headphones come with several silicone tips for maximum comfort but I found the ones that were already fitted were best suited for me. The fit is snug and at no point did I feel that they were going to come loose at all.
First use and I set up the Sound+ settings on the app, really like how configurable it is with no issues. Ive left it pretty standard as I was very happy with the sound set up and have listened to several musical styles and played around a little but am happy with the set-up it has.
I like the touch for volume and pause and also the ease that they paired up with my tablet. I found then extremely comfortable when wearing them to listen on MS Teams calls that seemed to go on forever! Removing one pauses the playback but this is a feature that can be turned off if desired. With the HearThrough function, it allows more outside noise to be heard if you are in the house -handy when someone is ringing the bell or the house phone rings.
I have had no issues and feel really pleased on the aesthetics, the fit, the look of them and the sound quality.

When arrived was just WOWZA ! These earbuds looking super impressive. Well designed, eye catching yellow colour with grey box. It contains plastic earbuds, charging case, aerogels in 3 sizes and USB-C cable. Just only one bad thing that arrived not fully charged, because I wanted use it straight away.
Charging case is small and perfect fits in any pocket. Open and close it easy, it has magnetic closure. Earbuds have shapes and sizes for smaller ears too. I use it smaller one for my personal use. Brilliant!
Superior sound quality with 4 microphone technology is clear and battery lasts long. Sometimes it looks like sound in your head, not in your ears. Charged it before few days ago for second time. Great choice on the go and they never slip down while doing outside activities or going somewhere.
In Jabra Sound+ app easy to manage your music and calls. Even can use voice assistant.
Pros: Well designed, superior sound for music or calls, battery lasts long, true wireless and fits perfectly.
Cons: Physical buttons, not useful if have Jabra Sound+ app.

I bought these so I could sit comfortably through the hours of zoom and teams meetings I now have under lockdown. I couldn’t justify the 250 for a pair of airpods and as I have an Android phone I wasn’t prepared to suffer the second class experience apple’s device would have offered me.
They fit snugly in the ear and the sound quality is excellent.
Jabra do not recommend using these earphones with a computer (the Bluetooth modules in PCs and Mac’s are different to those used in phones according to Jabra, so they won’t certify them) – in practice I found them to be a bit rubbish when paired with my Macbook pro’s built in Bluetooth – they were flaky, with sound cutting in and out and colleagues reporting my voice as sounding “robotic”. After much googling I found the solution to be pairing them with Jabra’s own Jabra link 370 Bluetooth dongle. This is a very expensive item (you won’t believe how expensive it is when you can buy Bluetooth dongles for a fiver – I ended up finding one on eBay) and it isn’t a solution that Jabra themselves even recommend, but it works a treat for me – the MS certified version of the Jabra link allows you to control MS Teams (answer calls, mute yourself) from your headphones and the sound quality and connection is rock solid.
I use them while running and they pair up nicely with a running watch – note though that there is a known issue with pairing these with watches… The Right earphone is the “master” which connects to the watch and if your watch is on your left hand (like most right handers) then they will become disconnected as you run – your body gets in the way! Answer? Wear your running watch on your right wrist, problem solved.
The headphones charge quickly (if you remember to close the lid of the charging case!) And the range is great. All in all, very satisfactory.

My first impressions on receiving my box from Amazon and opening it was WOW, what a premium looking product! The boxing was very deluxe and I couldn’t wait to get into it and discover my new Earbuds.
The gold tone looks very sophisticated and the casing is very neat and I like the magnetic hold when storing the earbuds. The case is ideal to pop in your pocket or handbag, but likewise, could be quite easy to misplace.
The buds took very little time to charge and are now keeping charged for a long period, so no complaints whatsoever with that.
They don’t fit fully inside the eardrum and stick out quite a bit, which is not very discreet. I have swapped the earbuds tips to others I own, and they are much more comfortable now.
The sound as you would expect for the price is pretty awesome. I have used Jabra headphones for work previously so I expected the sound to be excellent.
Many people in various reviews I’d read before buying these, rated the Jabra app for an enhanced experience. However I have found a much better experience using an equaliser app I found in the app store. There are many to choose from, so I would recommend that you also look into this option, if like me, you want to get the best possible sound using your earbuds.
I have been using the buds for over a week now and I am mostly satisfied. There have been a few issues connecting up with all my devices and I have used them with some team calls from my phone with colleagues a couple of times where the connection drops out. They are not suited to connecting to devices like your smart TV or the likes. I contacted Jabra regarding this and they were very helpful and quick to respond. They informed me that they are best suited for use with your mobile devices.
I have not had the opportunity to test these out using public transport yet, as I am still currently working from home during Covid 19. I feel like that would be the true test!
Conclusion….
Would I recommend them? YES, sound is awesome but… design and versatility isn’t as good as I would have liked.
A WEEK LATER… All teething problems I might have had with these headphones have now diminished and I can safely say that I am really enjoying my headphones now.
I absolutely love using the assistant feature! With just a couple of clicks I can talk to Alexa and find out all kinds of things without little effort!
This is a game changer for me!
Upgraded to these recently from the Jabra 65t Active and I can say it was well worth it.
The initial packaging was much smaller than the previous model and the overall size of the charging case and earbuds were much smaller providing better portability.
The sound quality was great as usual from Jabra however what stood out was the intense bass produced by the drivers in the earbuds. It is a top flagship in comparison to the many other true wireless earbuds in the market right now.
The connectivity is amazingly quick and the Sound+ app provides many different custom functions such as button remapping and a sound equaliser.
The only negative which I experienced with it is that it does struggle at times with the connectivity of the left earbud or does not switch on and it needs to be done manually by holding it down.
Overall I highly recommend and in my honest opinion, it is the best true wireless earbud in the market at the moment.
I am now on my second set as with the first set the right bud started to fail. I sent them back and after more research, as I really liked the sound quality and size, I ordered another pair. Lo and behold the same problem started after a few weeks with the right ear bud. I called Jabra Cust Servs and eventually after a few resets they are now working fine again. Fingers crossed but not holding out much hope. Shame as they are the best fit and sounding buds I’ve tried – better than apple and I’m an apple man!
UPDATE: Second pair, right earbud gone again an no amount of re-sets have fixed it. They will be going back. Shame, great look!
I’ve had these for just over 2 weeks now and I am very happy with them. Wasn’t sure at first due to the price but it is definitely worth it. I would also recommend getting the app, there is a lot of customisable options in it.
Hooray! I have finally found some earbuds that work petfectly for me. The sound quality and overall build of these is excellent. The bluetooth appears to be very good even when used outside. I did try the Cambridge Audio buds which were great but the bluetooth would constantly drop out when outside. The bluetooth with these buds has stayed very stable when outside. The only time they drop out is when I go through the entrance and exit from shops that have the detection alarms. The pass through works great. With one press of the button I can clearly hear everything that is going on outside. So I can hear people talking to me without removing the buds. The fit also does a good job of blocking out the outside noise when listening to music. When these buds are in your ears you can barely feel them. So to sum up these earbuds are pricey but they are worth the extra money in my opinion.

I’m very particular about my music and sound quality so researched earbuds heavilly before I purchased. It was a close call between these and the Bose. I went for these eventhough i have an amazing Bose Bluetooth speaker and this is my brand. The reviews on these said they stay in the ear canal better than than the opposition and eventhough I’d never heard of this brand i punted and purchased. The packaging is smart and when you get them out they look robust and well build. Pairing them is easy and when you turn them on…….The sound is mint! You hear parts of songs that you have missed for years! Its so clear with adjustable audio levels and a very comfortable fit. They come with variable fitting rubbers to work with your ears. You can adjust the commands with each ear buds ie; calls, muting pausing etc. One tap using the hearthrough function is superb where it amplifies the outside sound whilst still playing the music without taking them out. They are magnetic so go back into the case snuggly which is smart and charges them up when not in use and the battery life is superb. Not being too dramatic but these will change your life! I use them whilst walking the dog as they are showerproof. To wrap it up eventhough they are expensive I think they are well worth the money and eventhough i look for areas of improvement in any tech these are just quality. One of the best things I’ve bought and am very happy with build, function and sound quality. Buy these things and enjoy!!
I have a pair for 65t which I love, I now use them on my tv upstairs as they are a lot more convenient than wireless headphones, so I don’t have to remember to bring them downstairs to use on the audio system, I decided to upgrade and purchase the 75t’s, these are quite different to the 65t’s, they are a lot more informative and brighter with a lot more bass, I like bass, but I find it a little too much, thankfully the eq works well and you can tweak them to make them sound great.
I purchased a “as new ” pair from the warehouse, the earbuds were in good condition, but Unfortunately, I have had to return them because Amazon omitted to mention that the medium eargels were missing, (large and small earbuds were in the packing) to Amazon’s credit, they did send me replacements tips but they were the sports version which are made of foam and they are a lot less compliant than the silicon ones and I found they would not fit my ears, When I receive my refund, I am will be purchasing another pair, because they do sound very good, this time I hope they are complete.
Not entirely sure about the “moisture wicking” side of things, but my dad loves these headphones
Having been given a previous version as a gift a few years back and loving them, I then bought these for my father
He is absolutely thrilled with them, the sound quality is fantastic and they are incredibly comfortable to wear
The design has come a long way in just a few years, and the charging case is very compact I was very impressed
Definitely recommend

Punchy bass makes for a good workout earphones. Hear through and noise isolation is decent.
Fit is good for my ears, but that’s not to say they don’t fall out. Every once in a while they fall out. However they are better than anything else I’ve ever used for a workout.
Unfortunately I have felt fatigue and discomfort if I wear them for over an hour. This is worse if I’m not working out.
Battery life is decent enough to last through the day and there is the case for backup charging.
I’m also pleased that they have a 2 year warranty. That’s a sign of a manufacturer who believes in their product.
Definitely recommend for working out and day to day use.
I am prone to buying lots of different Earphones – and particularly like workout ones for cycling, working out and riding on a motorbike. The Elite Active 65’s were my go-to earphones for over a year – which is a long time for me. They fitted great. There was very little wind noise. And the battery life was good and sound was very good.
So, I was quite excited to get a hold of these headphones. I was pleased the case was smaller and the earphones also. But I found the fit just wasn’t quite right. When running or working out – I found myself pushing them back into position a number of times, as they didn’t feel secure. I tried different sized pads with no avail. So, in the end I had to send them back. I guess everyone’s ears are a slightly different shape and these don’t quite suit mine?
I mainly bought these earbuds for phone calling and videoconferences – preferring something more discrete and portable, than a full set of noise-cancelling ‘cans’.
These buds worked perfectly out of the box. Pairing immediately with laptops, phones and other devices. The manual seems to suggest that they can pair with up to 8 devices, I haven’t tried that many, but I certainly have no problems switching readily between the 2-3 that I use regularly. The Bluetooth connection appears to be very robust, I’m able to walk around my house quite easily and still maintain a strong link with my stationary computer.
Although I’m no audiophile, sound quality for music is excellent and on calls, the speakers and microphones do a great job of filtering out background noise and letting me be heard. Battery life is way more than long enough and the superfast charging of the case, with its secondary battery, makes concerns over power non-existent.
My only real complaint is that despite playing with different sized ear fitments, I still find the buds uncomfortable during extended sessions and it is often a relief to remove them at the end of a long call. Perhaps, this is personal, perhaps this is an inevitable consequence of having a piece of plastic inserted in your ear canal too long but if possible, you should test these out before commiting to what is a rather expensive ‘gadget’.
Top notch. I have a bunch of good quality *wired* earphones. This is my first venture into wireless, and I’m very pleased. Sound quality is deep and rich; calls are crystal clear. Bought after watching several earbud reviews on YouTube. Not disappointed.

Had these for a few days now after my previous earbuds, expensive B&O E8s failed. It’s very difficult to know which ones to buy as you can’t really try them out for hygiene reasons and the obvious issue of no stores in the UK being open right now due to the virus.
I watched as many reviews on YT as i Could and gradually narrowed down the field to eventually see these on Amazon with 5 months interest free payments…so I took a chance.
First off, these fit really well, much more comfortable than the B&Os. Second, they sound so much better too! and I mean MUCH better. More bass, more volume and many more options to control they way they sound due to the Jabra app. They have push buttons on each earbud to change track, volume etc but this is very sensitive and I don’t find that I’m pushing the bud deeper in to my ear canal.
Connection is instant and stable with my Galaxy S10+. As soon as I take them out of the charging case they connect and I’m ready to go. According to Jabra, these are good for a total of 7 hours before a charge is required and then a further 21 hours with subsequent charge from the case. It uses a USB type C cable and there is no wireless charging which doesn’t really bother me.
For the price, 169, I doubt you could get much better in the way of sound quality.
Pros
+Excellent sound, probably best of any in-ear headphone I’ve ever used
+Good features expected for higher-end earbuds (e.g. lets ambient noise through, pause when taken out etc)
+Responsive buttons that don’t require too much force
Cons
-Cannot use left earbud by itself which is a problem because…
-They get pretty uncomfortable. Though the tips sit in the ear nicely, the plastic body of the earbud exerts an uncomfortable amount of pressure.

so I have had these headphones for a few days but have wore them on several runs including a 14 mile run, 2min sprint interval sessions and several hours use in the office on conference calls, I do deel like I have put in through there paces enough to decide that I love them.
I was skeptical of wearing earbuds without the little wings which my last bose headphones had but these little buds are great, no movement whatsoever. Operating the buttons whilst running was fine, skipping songs and changing the volume without any issues. The natural noise cancelling is very effective and the pass through which allows in all the outside noise works great too. I love the look of these, unlike other sporty heasdphones, these in no way look out of place in the office and ive used them on lots of video conference calls. The ability to link these to my phone and laptop simultaneously is an excellent feature.
I feel like i should balance out this review with some cons.. well they are expensive, i really had to do alot of thinking before parting with what I think is a fair amount of money but for the features and build quality I honestly think they’re worth it. I had bought some jaybird vistas but cancelled the order after looking at these, the vistas wing tips nearly convinced me but im so glad i went for these.
Absolutely fantastic earphones. The fit and sound quality is excellent. Base at 50% is mind blowing. The mids and treble are loud and crisp. They paired easily with my samsung S10. Also paired easily with Alexa and my CD receiver. The battery lasts around 6hrs. The charging case is fine. Wise it was a more visible colour. I keep displacing them . There might be a ” find my buds” option somewhere in the app.
In conclusion. Fantastic product. So good to be free of wires.

Amazing truly wireless headphones. The sound does lean more toward bass but you can definitely tweak the sound settings within the app. They are much nicer in my opinion to the Apple AirPods and look far better. They’re very discreet. I like that they pretty much block all ambient sound around you so you don’t need active noise cancelling. I got the matte black and love them!

Starting looking for some totally wireless earbuds and after reading various reviews I decided to buy these and I am very glad I did. They’re worth every penny. The sound is superb throughout including excellent bass which I like. They really are a pleasure to wear and use. They come well packaged and fit inside a small case that doubles up as a charger for them. Using the Jabra Sound+ app they’re easy to set up and I haven’t even needed to alter the default EQ settings. The app also allows them to be updated to the latest firmware and offers other settings such as setting your default assistant. They paired up with my Android phone (OnePlus 7T) without any issues and reconnect every time I use them. Overall, I am extremely happy with these and the fact they come with a 2 year warranty against water and dust is even better. Highly recommended. Read reviews online and you’ll see why I’m so happy with them. Excellent product Jabra.
Read the reviews (not just on here but by industry experts) before I bought. I wanted something different to overpriced Apple Bose etc… but also wanted some qudos in a brand synonymous with great audio expertise. Because of the lockdown I could not TBYB (try before you buy) so after a week or so plumbed for these Jabra 75T’s. Some of the elements the experts said were an issue (wireless charging for example) did not pose a problem for me but they all said the same thing. Bass too overpowering. Well I have to say that default out of the box settings that their criticism was quite well founded. Having connected to Iphone 11 Pro I downloaded the Jabra app. Updated to latest firmware and then tweaked the Equalizer. Opted for the “Smooth” preset which turned out to make the sound just perfect. Mid range, deep bass still but adequate reduced as not to lose the resonance. Comfort is excellent. No niggly sharp corners and some of the in ear phones annoy after a long period of wearing. Not these. Charge box is small and USB C connection is welcome – much easier than Micro USB. Well pleased and that’s me set up in the True Wireless department for a good few years.
Summary
Amazingly good all-rounder truly wireless earbuds. Smart charging case (USB-C), lightweight buds, good battery life, great sound and comfortable. The completely package — and this is coming from a Cambridge Audio Melonamia 1 (CAM1) owner.
Full Review
Let’s start from the beginning here. I purchased these as I found the CAM1’s uncomfortable when running or being active (aside from that, they are superb). I had tried the Jabra Elite 65t earbuds last year and was terribly disappointed so was a little apprehensive about spending so much on the follow-ups. Similar to the 65t, the packaging of the 75t’s is premium, they are really nicely presented and definitely give off the “premium” feel. First thing that greets you option opening is the cutout displaying the buds themselves — petit. Revealing the next layer, you meet the charging case — also small in size. You’ll also find a small compartment which contains the charging cables, instructions and additional buds (small and large, medium are pre-fitted).
In the background, you’ll also need to download the Jabra Sound+ app to your android/iphone. Really quick and easy, no signup required. After I unpacked everything it was time to connect the buds to my phone; this was painless and follows the usual process. After connecting you’ll also be prompted my the app to do an update to the latest firmware. This was again quick and relatively painless; took about 15 minutes in total to do. Gave the case a charge whilst doing this as well to ensure it was at 100% capacity. All good, time to move on.
Fired up Spotify to give them a test drive. Felt like being punched in the ear — these are VERY bass heavy and not in a good way! Back to the Sound+ App to configure the profile. Obviously, bass needs to be reduced — filled with a few other bits too and ended up with the above custom profile which I really like. Leaves the sound energetic, some bass, naturally balanced with nothing too overpowering. 100% recommend trying the profile as it completely changed the buds sound. Back to Spotify and the improvement was incredible! Easily rivaling (in my opinion anyway) the CAM1s. Next issue I discovered was that when I went for a run, the buds had a tendency to feel loose and need adjusting every so often. There’s a tutorial online for “finding the best fit” but I found it kind of useless. I insert them with a little twist, and push the bottom into my ear slightly further too. Note that I opted for the SMALL buds. This has resulted in a really comfortable feel, not painful at all although slightly deeper in my ear cancel than normal. I found that it also helps support the buds and the fit is really secure now. Went for another run and any/all issues have been ironed out.
Additional comments/Feedback
Battery life isn’t industry leading but it’s far from the worst available; in all honestly it’s somewhere in between the best and average. No complaints from me though, with roughly 7 hours on a single charge it’s more than sufficient. The case allows for a few cycles too so good job there. One feature I honestly love is the passthrough mode; using the mics; it feeds the outside noise into the buds themselves allowing you to hear ambient noise and conversations. This can easily be activated either through the app or a single click of the left bud when using. Talking about the buds; unfortunately the left bud acts as a slave to the right — what does this mean you might ask? You can’t use the left bud by itself (but can use the right without the left), you may also experience a delay in connecting if you take out the left bud before the right as the right manages the connection to the phone. When using both buds, removing one from your ear will auto music the music which I think is a great little feature too.

In the background, you’ll also need to download the Jabra Sound+ app to your android/iphone. Really quick and easy, no signup required. After I unpacked everything it was time to connect the buds to my phone; this was painless and follows the usual process. After connecting you’ll also be prompted my the app to do an update to the latest firmware. This was again quick and relatively painless; took about 15 minutes in total to do. Gave the case a charge whilst doing this as well to ensure it was at 100% capacity. All good, time to move on.
Fired up Spotify to give them a test drive. Felt like being punched in the ear — these are VERY bass heavy and not in a good way! Back to the Sound+ App to configure the profile. Obviously, bass needs to be reduced — filled with a few other bits too and ended up with the above custom profile which I really like. Leaves the sound energetic, some bass, naturally balanced with nothing too overpowering. 100% recommend trying the profile as it completely changed the buds sound. Back to Spotify and the improvement was incredible! Easily rivaling (in my opinion anyway) the CAM1s. Next issue I discovered was that when I went for a run, the buds had a tendency to feel loose and need adjusting every so often. There’s a tutorial online for “finding the best fit” but I found it kind of useless. I insert them with a little twist, and push the bottom into my ear slightly further too. Note that I opted for the SMALL buds. This has resulted in a really comfortable feel, not painful at all although slightly deeper in my ear cancel than normal. I found that it also helps support the buds and the fit is really secure now. Went for another run and any/all issues have been ironed out.
Additional comments/Feedback
Battery life isn’t industry leading but it’s far from the worst available; in all honestly it’s somewhere in between the best and average. No complaints from me though, with roughly 7 hours on a single charge it’s more than sufficient. The case allows for a few cycles too so good job there. One feature I honestly love is the passthrough mode; using the mics; it feeds the outside noise into the buds themselves allowing you to hear ambient noise and conversations. This can easily be activated either through the app or a single click of the left bud when using. Talking about the buds; unfortunately the left bud acts as a slave to the right — what does this mean you might ask? You can’t use the left bud by itself (but can use the right without the left), you may also experience a delay in connecting if you take out the left bud before the right as the right manages the connection to the phone. When using both buds, removing one from your ear will auto music the music which I think is a great little feature too.
Very comfortable to wear in the ears.
They have a light weight but they are big in terms of sound and noise cancellation.
I found volume control fairly simple and the price is excellent.
I bought these recently and I have to say, I am very impressed with them. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.
As with many speakers and head/earphones, they don’t sound great at first, you have to use them for a few hours to loosen them up and settle them in. You can hear them opening up and sounding better the more you listen to them.
Once bedded in they are very musical. Sure, as many reviewers say, the bass is a bit heavy but you can tone it down a bit in the app and it’s not intrusive or overwhelming, just a bit too powerful. Talking of the app, it’s great that these can have their firmware upgraded, even the difference between the supplied firmware and the first update was noticeable.
“Musical” is a good description I think as everything just sounds better than the previous pair of earbuds I had. I love dance music (among many other styles) and these earphones made me want to dance to tracks I know well more than I’ve experienced before. That told me a lot about their musicality.
At the time of writing you can only use the right earbud on its own but they have promised an upgrade in spring/summer 2020 that should allow the left to be used alone, which is something I need and another selling point for me. Battery life is great too.
All in all, highly recommended.
Great buds! Bought as a replacement for Bose SoundSport Free wireless earbuds- the Jabra wins in every department! Can’t give 5 stars as the sound is never going to be the absolute best given the nature of the product. Also they don’t have active noise cancellation – but I didn’t really notice as the fit is so good. Having said that these are as close to perfect as you can get!!! The fit is brilliant, they sit very snuggly in the ears and barely protrude ….. unlike their Bose counterparts which stick out quite a lot, and frankly the Bose design looks completely outdated now. The controls are also great – just two “buttons” that cover the surface of each bud. These can be quite easily depressed when fitting into the ear, which is the only real drawback – but not enough to detract from the general brilliance! Also they are brilliant for phone calls – you can hear through both buds, unlike many where you can only hear the call through one. Another brilliant feature is that you can be connected to two devices at once – so can listen to music via your phone and take conference calls on your laptop without having to continually connect and reconnect – would recommend over any other buds I have tried
I’ve tried a couple of different brands of true wireless earbuds but never found any that are comfortable to wear. These Jabra go more into the ear and fit better and offer limited noise cancellation if you can get a good seal.
Pairing was easy enough, although I have had a few disconnects or drop outs so not sure what’s going on there. I’m hoping an update will fix that in time. Listening to music they’re pretty impressive sound wise, they took a little while to settle in as with most headphones but I really like the sound that they produce. I found them a tad bassy at first but that seems to have largely settled and they seem well rounded.
Included are several ear tips and the charging case with charging cable. The case is useful for carrying them around and somewhere to store them when not in use so that you don’t lose them or break them. The case also doubles as a charger and charges the earbuds when they need it. Battery life is claimed at 7.5 hours for the earbuds, although I’ve found them to fall short of that. With the case that can be extended up to a claimed 28 hours with a 15 minute charge giving you 60 minutes of listening time.
At 169 these aren’t the cheapest, but are similarly priced with competitive offerings. The quality of the whole package is excellent and I was really pleased with the sound. With the added charging case to store and charge the earbuds this aids the price and makes it a more worthwhile purchase.
Clear Sound, Lightweight. Preferable to Jabra Elite 65T
First of all, the case is better than the one for Jabra Elite 65T. The old model is a smooth shiny plastic case with a very small bit sticking out to grip on to push open the case which makes it very slippery and hard to open and you definitely need two hands to do so. It also has rounded edges so will only stay on it’s back. The new model has a smaller case (easier to store in a small purse for ladies), has a velvety finish making it less slippery and has flat ends so the case can sit upright on a flat surface. But most important is that it doesn’t have a clip to (un)lock it but a magnet system which is really easy to use, can do it with one hand and don’t have to look at it to open the case. Perfect!
Inside the case the magnet system continues and when you are trying to put the ear piece back in the case, you don’t have to look at it (again, big plus!) As the magnet will pull it in the right position for you.
The earpiece itself is smaller on the 75t model than the 65t model and the sound is definitely clearer and louder. You get 4 different sizes for the silicone cover that goes in your ear to suit any size and make it comfortable.
What I can say for both models is that they both block the exterior sound really well. Both models are amazing sound wise, clear and great sound quality. You can select from different types of settings (like speach, bass etc) from the app depending on what you use your headset most for (music or calls). The app also updates them and even shows you last location (in case you always lose stuff around the house, this is helpful).
On a negative side, both models I find it hard to adjust volume from the headset itself. You always have to use the right earpiece if you are to only use one and not both in order to connect to your phone btw. The sound is great though so I don’t really need to adjust the volume, but if I try pressing the edge of the earpiece down, it doesn’t seem to make much difference, if I press the opposite side it ends the calls like I pressed the centre of it. But again, this is minor for me as the sound is great, clear, loud on both models (slightly better on the 75t model). The battery will last about 5-8 days depending how much you use it.
All in all, this set is worth the money for blocking the outside noise, clear sound, comfortable, improved case and long battery life.
These headphones have the best sound range I’ve come across with in ear headphones, and I’ve tried a LOT of different sets. Voice and music are equally clear, bass, mid tones and treble are all good.
The noise cancellation is excellent, however I can only wear them sitting down because if I move around I can hear my footsteps way too loudly. However if I swap them over to be n the wrong ears, the powerful seal is broken and the problem goes away. So this is how I use them. In the correct ears if I want noise cancellation, and in the wrong ears if I want to walk around. Both ways they stay in my ears.
The fit is perfect for me, they haven’t fallen out and they are comfortable. Much better than my previous pair of Jabra 65’s, which were too big for my ear conch.
If you want to use just one headphone you need to wear the right hand one. The left hand one doesn’t work alone.
The bluetooth connection is workable, but not the best. I need to keep my phone in the pocket nearest to the receiving headphone (the right one), otherwise I lose signal every now and then. Interestingly if my phone is on the kitchen counter I can move around the kitchen OK, but I can’t go into a different room. Our house is a modern one so doesn’t have thick walls.
The headphones connect very quickly and easily.
Battery life is OK, but again not the best I’ve come across.
The charging case is good, solid, and doesn’t flip open if it’s dropped. There’s no indication that it’s running out of power, which is a shame.
Amazing ear buds, best I have had and I’ve had plenty. They fit very well and connect seamlessly with my galaxy s10+ by just placing them in my ears. The hear through technology is great when u need to focus on external sound and can be switched on/off at a touch of a button on the left ear. Very highly recommended!
These earbuds are amazing. My husband bought the Jabra Elite Active 65t 6 months ago and he was supper happy with them, I didn’t really try them and wasn’t very impressed about them but I decided to get the Jabra Elite 75t because of his advice.
I cannot express how happy I am with them! I used to wear big Sony wireless headphones in my commute to work and after getting these ones, I’m not using the headphones anymore. The Jabra Elite 75t are very light, easy to use, battery last very long and the sound is much better than the Jabra Elite Active 65t so my husband is a bit jealous right now.
They are quite easy to link to your phone or other device and I really advice you to install the Jabra Sound app in your phone, it is really good! You have all the settings to choose sound mode, you have different settings depending on your preferences for the office, commute, sporting very impressed with it.
As I said, I cannot see myself using the old wireless headphones anymore, these are so much comfortable, smaller, so they don’t get all the space in your handbag!, they are the best, really really worth the price.
I didn’t know about this brand before my husband bought theirs, but I can tell you we are so in love with our earbuds now, 100% recommended.
I’ve already been using the Jabra Elite 75t since Feb 15th and I am overjoyed with how they are performing.
Great unboxing experience, with a real premium feel (without being over the top) and the compact size of the earbuds and case is really showcased.
Easy to pair, simple to download and use Jabra App and easy to learn earbud gestures and features.
Can barely hear the outside world but when you want to the Hearthrough works very well. I vacuumed the other day whilst listening to music and the hoover might aswell have been off as i could barely hear a thing.
The auto pause when removing one bud is a great and effective feature.
Great battery as is but with the case and regular use to and from work I only really juice up once a week.
The connection is strong and solid even at distance. Quick head turns to the left cause a slight problem (noticed when looking to cross roads) which I assume is something to do with thinking I’ve removed one bud. But v v brief and safety over sound right!
Can switch between music and calls seamlessly. Have been told Microphone is clearer at the other end than just using the handset (as I did previously). Mic not as effective when using just 1 bud but not a huge issue for me as they are always together.
I bought these after trying the sennheiser equivalent. The sennheiser have been sent back because they’re rubbish (3 days max)The battery life was appealing. The Jabra on the other hand are incredible! Seriously! The battery life is amazing(it might be forever- I’ve yet to find out), sound quality is great too. Buy them- don’t buy anything else. Click buy! You’ll thank me later.
DO NOT BUY SENNHEISER.

I have tested these headphones as part of the insiders campaign. My initial impression of these were very positive. They look neat when you open them up, I like the case and the fact that you can keep them charged in there.
I bought these from Amazon, they came fully charged and I wasn’t sure initially whether to use them before the official start of the campaign so they were left in the charging case. They held their charge really well and are still going strong, haven’t charged them yet and using daily for up to 2 hours.
They fit nicely, I’ve always struggled with ‘in ear’ headphones as I’ve got small inner ears and they end up getting incredibly sore, sometimes after only a few minutes of use. I’ve not experienced any discomfort with these so far.
My husband has used these as well when he’s been out for runs and he found the fit and sound to be very good.
I found the app to be very intuitive and easy to set up and overall have really enjoyed testing these and will be very tempted to keep them at the end!
Makes the grade
This is a nice set of mid priced in ear true wireless earbuds. The price at 169- seems fair enough for what you get. Its on a par with its competitors. On the pros side the buds are very comfortable and fit me snugly. There are several different bud pieces included so you can probably find one to suit your ears. It has an IP5 rating which means that within reason its dust and waterproof as in you can sweat a lot while running across a sandstorm but dont swim in them. Pairing it with my iPhone 6 was easy. It has bluetooth 5 which is more advanced than my iPhone which is great as that is the latest standard. It supports all music codecs. I stream Tidal Masters from my phone and they sounded pretty amazing on this device. Certainly as good as any of the competitors and over ear bluetooth headsets I have used. The phone app is quite handy but I must say I never found a need to use it. In call quality is fine. It does everything it is supposed to. The only con I can think of is that the battery life is not as good as some of its competitors who boast 11 hours as opposed to 7 hours. But to be perfectly honest I cant see myself using it continuously for more than a few hours at a time and with 28 hours in total with its charging pack its enough battery life for any long haul journey. I think this is a surprising good value for money ear bud.
Even better than the 65
Last year I got to try the 65t wireless earbuds and finally found buds that fit my ears comfortably, stayed in, and actually gave the benefits of true wireless. Are the 75t an improvement worth considering. In short: yes. They’ve had a significant design overhaul and are much smaller than the previous model. How they’ve managed to also increase the battery life is impressive. 7.5 hrs going up to 28hrs with the charging case. The charging case is smaller too, making it much easier to carry in your pocket and also is magnetic so that the buds just fit into place easily.
Sound quality is much the same as the previous set, not as impressive as some buds but still good. Noise cancelling dependent on how good a fit you get but there are three different bud tips to try. Hear through allows you to hear what’s going on in the world around you, handy when you need to be aware of your surroundings.
Very happy with these. Perfect for my commute, and for use during exercise. If you’re on a tighter budget then the 65t are currently under 100
The Jabra Elite 75t’s are pretty good Bluetooth earbuds. The multi connect Bluetooth on Jabra; means you can connect to 2 devices at the same time. If the phone rings the use with the other device functionality is paused, and the Bluetooth with phone goes live. With the customisable equaliser, offered in the Jabra Sound+ app. As mentioned in another review, the downside with the 75t was the design size making it painful to use over long periods in my ears. This new 75t has added a slimmer USB C case and longer battery life.
Comfortable to wear, nicely balanced audio quality, small enough to carry around.
Small, comfortable to wear ear buds that remain securely in place when I’m busy. The charging case is small enough to fit into a pocket and simple to charge with a USB-C the buds and the charging case are fully charged on arrival so you’re ready to go straight from the packet. Battery charge lasts for an extremely long time and I’m only charging at around the fourth day of use. All of the necessary cables plus silicon ear tips, along with a simple user guide, are included with the buds and the Jabra App allows for sound adjustments to personalize your listening experience. Audio quality is good, just about perfect for my own taste, with an excellent balance of bass v treble. I particularly like the ‘hear through’ option which allows me to hear what’s going on around me if I’m on public transport etc., and might need to hear the announcement. I don’t have any real niggles and find the buds easy to use, easy to set up and comfortable to wear.
Previously purchased the 65t – but returned them as they felt slightly uncomfortable (even with the correct fitting earbuds). It was worth the wait for the 75t- fits perfectly, controls are easy to use and the design fits discreetly unlike the previous model.
Very happy custome
Firstly I’ve struggled to find comfortable ear buds – I think I have a smaller inner ear auricle than most! These buds have been the most comfortable I’ve tried (although still a bit tight in my left ear – weird ears I think).
Play around with the eargel tips to find the most comfortable for you – I’ve ended up with a different size in each ear.
The battery life is good and the holder acts as a back up charger which is handy.
The best positive I’ve noticed is I can’t hear my feet pounding the pavement when out walking – I’ve found that irritating with other buds.
Another huge positive is HearThrough which can enable me to hear the chat around me in the office whilst still listening to what I want to hear. HearThrough can be switched off when I need to concentrate and it massively reduces ambient office noise – a huge plus from me for this function.
The downloadable app provides a handy walk through of all the functions. The app also enables tech upgrades – another plus point.
You can also customise your listening experience- I tend to listen to radio but this function is excellent for music lovers.
Yet another plus is the ability to use Alexa – handy for leaving reminders etc when you are out and about.
My only tiny niggle is the charger – why not a universal charger (e.g not the Apple one but the one that does most other phones) I’ve managed to mislay mine already and I didn’t have a spare in the house – luckily I found it!
I’ve noticed other reviews talk about cut out whilst using gym equipment- I can’t comment on this but I have been impressed with the range within my home and office.
I am giving these buds 5 stars as I’ve been trying to find comfortable buds for a while and these are the first I can keep in for ages without discomfort.
First off, I don’t think any in-ear phones ( for ) will perform as well as over-ear phones in terms of comfort or performance. These are relatively comfortable but I wouldn’t want to use them for more than an hour or so at a time. They don’t fall out if you run, jump up and down, which is a prerequisite.
Sound quality is decent, but I’ve heard better for less money. Not a great bass response but it is a clear, crisp sound. Controls are relatively simple after a little use – though pressing to increase/decrease volume is a little uncomfortable afs you’re constantly pushing the buds into your ears. ‘Hear-through’ works well, allowing you to hear your outside environment while the music plays, but I tend to switch off or just take one bud out (this pauses the music).
Where these iPhone-type pods win out is in sheer convenience – pop them in the charge case and they’re ready for the next day. Very portable and easy to use. Ideal for the commute. If a little pricey (when Apple produces a similar product for less money you know you’re in premium territory).
Initial impressions were good – until I was invited to download a firmware update (1.27.0) after which the earphones became unusable (Bluetooth constantly cutting out). This is makes it difficult to give a useful review (other than to say that 169 is a lot to pay for a pair of earplugs).
I’m hoping this will be resolved in a future update.
I’ll be back …
… OK, so the update has ‘bedded in’ and the dropouts have stopped, and it is a much smoother experience. Moreover, the sound quality has improved to the point where they are beginning to sound much better than they were straight out of the box – so thumbs up to Jabra for that. As such, they do begin to compete as the Android alternative to the Airpods. My only qualm would be the price at 169 is more than I would pay.
Quality for a price
Box looks premium
First download and APP, its free, jabra sound+
In the app you can check how to pair and many other features…
For me was just scan for Bluetooth devices, pick the right one and done… It’s true that only pairs the right one, nothing wrong with the left one, you just have to press the button on the left and wait for the light…
Sound is really nice, and with so many features you can change in the app, is an amazing option.
At first I felt they were to big for my ears, but I’m used to them now…
Anyway, like I share in pics, there are other sizes to pick from, and they are very well presented instead of a bag…
USBC little cable included to charge the box, for this price range, I reckon it should have wireless charger box, but something I can live without… Box is light, easy to carry around, not like many others I tried…
Up to 7,5 hours playtime, with 28 hours with the charging box…
Voice assistant Included, and 2 years warranty…
Can’t forget to mention that it used 4 microphones to make calls, so quality is impressive!
At first I thought the earpieces were big and heavy, but once you get the right size ear buds they fit and feel ok. I couldn’t find any operating instructions and it was common sense and trial & error in using them. At first the sound was really tinny, but I sussed the bass and they now sound really good. I particularly like the hear through function and the fact that it can be turned on & off with a single push of the earpiece. This will come in handy in the office, so I can be aware of what’s going on around me and also when my wife is watching her soaps so I can still hear and acknowledge her reactions as if I care about what’s happening in the bay or on the street.
All in all, great sound. Easy connectivity to bluetooth devices, alexa and my phone. No more yanking the earpieces out when I catch the cable. The charging/storage box is compact enough to slip into your pocket.
These tiny Jabra earbuds come with a charging case, USB-C cable and 3 different sizes of ear-gels.
The charge state of the buds is indicated on opening the case by colour coded LEDS; Green for high battery, Yellow for medium and red for low and the case also has a colour coded indicator.
Connection and Range:
===============
They connected to my android phone straight away and so far I haven’t had a single disconnect. The range is good and I don’t lose the signal when moving to a different room. In the garden with no obstacles they easily exceed the advertised 10m.
Jabra Sound+ app
============
Its not essential to download the app when using these earbuds and they can certainly be used without but it does allow you to customise the sound and settings to your preference, you can also register you earbuds and get firmware updates using it
Sound Quality:
==========
The sound quality is something I’m really impressed with, whether listening to music, audiobooks and calls the quality is crystal clear with no distortion over a variety of volume levels. The Jabra Sound+ app has an equaliser with multiple options.
Battery Life:
========
7.5 hours playtime and the case holds up to 28 hours charge. There is an auto sleep mode and the activation time can be adjusted via the Jabra Sound+ app
In Summary:
========
There’s a lot to like about these earbuds, the sound’s excellent, they don’t randomly disconnect, are comfortable to wear and they don’t fall out. It is however worth mentioning that you can’t rotate them (using one while the other charges and then swopping over) as only the right one will connect on its own the left only works along with the right. That aside these pretty much cover all my requirements when it comes to a pair of bluetooth earbuds. I like them!
Great battery life, enhanced sound in a compact great looking unit.
This review concerns the Jabra Elite 75t Alexa Built-in True Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds with Charging Case, Black, price at review 169.95.
From audio specialist Jabra these wireless ear buds offer a great soundstage with good tonal balance, increased battery life in a somewhat smaller package when compared to similar offerings from other manufacturers.
Although in use they are still rather big and stick-out more than some they are comfortable to wear for longer periods. prodded with three sizes of eargels that provide a good comfortable seal.
However, the lack of wing-tip hooks would in my opinion not make them suitable for anyone engaged in running etc.
Bluetooth setup was a breeze when connecting to my iPadAir2 – instant followed by instant pairing between buds.
Soundwise, the App allows several presets plus user defined settings that can also be saved. Rather surprisingly considering the size of the 75ts they can emit a very bold base sound out of the box, which i have cut back using the App.
As with other similar buds, getting used to the ‘Tap, Tap’ operation of each buds takes some getting used to.
Unlike many offerings from competitors these are not true Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) buds but the passive noise reduction filters out all but the most loud environmental sounds.
The very compact charging base, which is magnetic and is supplied with a USB-C connector.
Great-sounding earbuds - with excellent battery life
The Jabra Elite 75t Bluetooth Earbuds deliver the best quality sound I have heard from Bluetooth earbuds.
The sound is the most important aspect of earbuds and headphones for me, and the Jabra Elite 75t deliver a very good sound. The bass is powerful, without over-powering. Percussion and strings sparkle and are clear.
I am also impressed with the calls function. On taking a call, I tapped the right earbud and the music paused and I was able to take the call – which transmitted clearly via the earbud microphone (even when I was in a different room to my phone. So you can leave your phone in your pocket or bag when receiving calls.
The Jabra Elite 75t come with three sizes of earbuds – the pre-fitted medium size was the most comfortable for me. They fit in-ear well and feel comfortable to wear for long periods, such as when commuting.
The (free) app is useful for changing the sound of the earbuds to your personal preference. I preferred the default, flat sound – as for me, the Jabra Elite 75t are powerful enough flat.
Via the app you can set it so that the audio pauses when you remove an earbud. As long as you put the earbud back into your ear within 60 seconds, the audio will resume. This is great if you want to hear a train announcement!
The battery time is the best I have experienced – with a good 7 hours charge before the earbuds need to be placed back in the charging case. Fast charging means that 15 mins charge gives you around an hours charge – if you need a quick boost for a short period of usage.
I have not had any drop-outs with the Jabra Elite 75t so far, and I am happy to recommend these earbuds.
I've used these a lot - they are just awesome
I have owned and used a previous generation of Jabra Bluetooth headphones nearly daily for the past couple of years – these are just an upgrade all round; sound, configurability, comfort and battery life all impress.
Whilst you can just pair them as you would to any Bluetooth device, it’s really worth using the app in my opinion as this allows you to use the music equalizer and customise the sound with presets or your own preference. The sound is amazingly good – it’s important in my opinion to make sure you choose the right pair of earbuds from the three provided for best fit and comfort. The app also allows you to register so you have two years guarantee and locate your buds, as well as access the manual and you can also choose to play a soundscape to block out external noise eg babbling brook or ocean. A press of the left bud main button activates “hearthrough” which I find handy if, eg I’m running or need be aware of my surroundings.
When in use I do find that the battery life is excellent, as billed – far superior to other buds I’ve used. The case, which cradles the buds magnetically, adds to battery life as it recharges and is compact enough to slip in a pocket. Charge is via USB-C. If I had one tiny criticism it would be that the case does fingerprint mark – but this is a minor criticism.
I love the fact that the buds stay in place when I’m moving about and they are so comfortable I can forget I’m wearing them – they are much more compact than my previous pair. The build quality and design are first class. I also like the fact that they don’t drop out in general use – they have stuttered occasionally when paired to two devices at once (eg my tablet and phone) – but they can and do cope with more than one device. If you want to wear one bud only it has to be the right one – not an issue for me.
Overall I was impressed the moment I unpacked this and have continued to be in use – I totally would recommend them if sound and battery life are key.
My overall opinion is very positive regarding these earbuds. Generally, I prefer to wear phones over the ear as I find buds a little painful, however, these were certainly more comfortable than many others I’ve tried.
Sound quality is good as is the battery life. On the subject of the battery life (4* stars), I am referring to the use of the case recharging the buds. The buds themselves do not last as long, on their own, as a couple of sets of my B&O buds. The sound quality I also gave 4 stars as I thought the use with classical music again, was not as good as good as my B&O’s
Noise cancellation was very good but, and for me a big but, they needed to be pushed quite firmly into the ear which is where the painful side set in (something I’ve found in most earbuds).
Overall I feel thet a 4 star rating is correct but it should be noted that I tend to use buds/phones around the home or when out walking I do not use them near gym equipment so cannot comment as other reviews have done on this aspect.
Jabra 75
Jabra Elite 75t
————————-
These are a great effort on wireless headphones. The sound quality is fantastic, definitely made with a music lover in mind, and designed for commuting/on the go use, with the call functionality and Alexa capabilities working seamlessly.
Personally I’m not a massive fan of the Alexa link up, but I can see how it would be useful. If you’ve got these in but left your phone elsewhere in a massive office, for example. But otherwise the Alexa just isn’t for my lifestyle. It does work though, so for someone else, I’m sure it’s great.
There are spare headphone buds – they’re sealed in the included little box with the paperwork. There’s a selection and it’s best getting whichever one fits best, as a lot of any noise cancellation comes from the fit of these.
I know a lot of people disagree, but I think their best feature is the ambient noise levels. The headphones are loud enough so that you can hear them clearly without having to have full volume, yet you can still hear outside just enough to be safe – cars, bikes, people, all the things that might hit you, but wind noise and ambient hum is quite nicely cut out.
The sound quality is as you’d expect from Jabra, it’s really good. It’s not much different from previous models and it’s worth bearing in mind that these are made for using on the go – so it’s not that audio has taken a backbench, but they’re never going to match the likes of headphones that are made solely with over-ear cups, and designed for listening to music sitting down still in a quiet room.
The app, as always, is fantastic. It comes with every model of wireless Jabra and works seamlessly. Connection is a breeze and I love the EQ changeability, you can customise them to exactly how you like to listen.
I do like the physical design a lot. You don’t look like a complete fool as people do with the white AirPods, and I think these warrant (rightly so) being judged a little less than those who wear the AirPods, or feel the need to flaunt the Apple tech. They’re a smart black, subtle and discreet, whilst being made to be robust and last some accidental drops and whacks.
I previously bought some Cambridge Audio Melomania headphones and it gave me the bug for buds. These Jabra 75t do not look as good out of the box as the Melomanias however look 10x better when in my ear. They’re ‘flush’ to your ears and don’t get funny looks!
They’re very lightweight plastic ear buds and aren’t uncomfortable when if your ears.
In terms of sound quality, I am no expert so I can’t compare to my Cambridge Audio nor could I compare to the wired AKG headphones I got a few years ago with my S8 but I can say there isn’t horrible bass feedback, they are plenty loud and they’re no worse than the others.
For those who are wanting to use them at the gym, they’re very good. Unlike my other wireless buds which come out when I take my hoodie off or when I am getting up from a bench for example, they stay in always. They’re waterproof apparently, I sweat a bit but I don’t think I can comment on it too much as they still work after a short time.
Is it worth the money? I’d say so, they have a good battery life, they are easy to use with the cool button functions on the ear buds and they don’t cut out very easily.
lovely
OVERALL
=======
I have the apple ones and these are superior in terms of sound and feel.
LOVELY
=======
The short review: They’re lovely. They sound lovely. They look lovely.
I’m not an earphone expert or audiophile, although I do like a nice set of headphones. I use my headphones a lot. On a commute, in the house and over the day. So a few hours each day.
APP
=====
The app is easy to download and tweak with them.
PACKAGING
==========
Nice but not top end premium.
small tips, large tips and fitted with medium tips.
LOOKS
======
They do look very nice and resilient. Small and light. The case is the standard for these type of headphones. Nice finish with the logo emblazoned on it.
HEADPHONE TIPS
==============
I’m not sure what they’re called, the little rubbery tips that clip on. Well, I’ll call them tips. The headphones come with 6 in all. I’d like more but hopefully I don’t lose any.
NOISE ISOLATION
===============
Not really. Just normal headphones. Great headphones though. You could use them day to day but if you need to isolate external noise (such as on a plane) they’d be OK but they’re not made to be noise isolating.
SOUND
======
You buy headphone to give a nice sound. What did I think of the sound?
Superb! Bass is well balanced and they are ideal for all types of music. I tried them with dance, classic, rock and acoustic. They were simply am-az-ing.
They have excellent separation and clarity. They almost scrape at the detail, fetching little bits of song you’d never normally hear. At this pricepoint you expect a lot, and you actually get a lot for your ‘buck’.
For me they’re perfect for mids/vocals lovers. They’re not muddy or woolly and have an amazing sound.
CABLE
======
The cable that you can charge with is very small. I bought a longer one as my socket/plug is on the floor and i wanted to charge on the table.
FEEL
====
They feel really comfortable. Light, but not too light. And they stay in place even when moving. For example I visited the gym and jogged on the treadmill. Stayed. In. Place.
SONGS
=======
I listened to the following songs:
Jess Delgado – Nobody. Beautiful and rich. You can almost hear the press of the piano. The double bass is perfectly balanced with her voice. WOW! Nobody
Lady in Spain – The accordian feels like it’s in the room. They really show off the range of her voice.
Poppiholla – They are superb for dance music too. Not too overpowering.
Blue Skies (Radio Edit) The rendition of the choir, piano, and the gentle tap of the drum and all clear and balanced.
The Sinking Feeling There’s a bit in the song where Matt sings, I think I better get back in bed. It sounded like he was behind me.
To Know Him Is To Love Him (Remastered) The soundstage is perfect with these.
We Will i don’t think I’ve ever noticed the harp before. They are beautiful to listen with.
Watching The Wheels Again, I’d never noticed the bass before, before listening with these.
Feel It Still This was strange to listen to. The song builds and builds and when the bit where it goes, ooooeehh I’m a rebel with the… and the music has a psychedelic whaa whaa… It almost made me dizzy. A good type of dizzy though.
Je m’en vais They brought me to tears.. well almost.
PROS
=====
Quality finish
exceptionally detailed sound
Nice resilient bass
CONS
=====
They’re not cheap.
OVERALL
=======
They are the best inear wireless headphones I’ve used.
RECOMMENDED
==============
Yes. If you use your headphone a lot these are currently my favourites.
Amazing earbuds. Perfect fit. Sound quality is great and call quality is in a league of its own clearest call quality ive ever had on earbuds ( and ive had the sony 1000-xm3 nad b&o e8 2.0) even when outdoors on the street. Compact small chrging case that easily fits into my pocket. Battery life is also great. The app allows a secent amoint of customisation especially the hear through feature which is very useful.
If i have one complaint its that i have experienced numerous stops and drops in the bluetooth connectivity. It is very annoying as i have to disconnect and reconnect the earbuds. Happened quite a dew times now. I hope its something thay can fix in a firmware update via the app.
Almost perfec
Took a punt on these after a lot of research. Really, really good. Star off the app not working properly on my Sony Walkman.
Before I dive into my review, before I try Jabra Elite 75t, I tried: b&w pi4, Apple AirPods Pro, I AM+ Buttons, and few others. Jabra Elite 75t is winning so far.
Sound quality: on par with AirPods pro if not better; and with the Sound+ app you have even better control on your sound preference
Noise Isolating: while it is not active noise cancelling, but it seals well and comfortably that’s almost as good as the AirPods Pro ANC. After I tried Apple AirPods Pro I was convinced that it is impossible to achieve such isolation without ANC and without having to uncomfortably seal the earbuds into your ears. But Jabra Elite 75t changed my mind
Fitting and security: I workout, jog, walk, and I have 0 worry that the earbuds would fall; it fits securely in my ears and I forget about them
Mic performance in phone calls: it is not great when compared to wired earbuds; but it is way better (at least for me) when I compare them to Apple AirPods Pro! The other end of the call is always able to make out what I am saying with Jabra; which wasn’t always the case with Apple AirPods Pro
Battery Life: is just great! I plug the charger into my case almost once a week or so (given that I only use the earbuds around 4 hours maximum a day)
Overall material quality: could be better; I noticed the case inside can get sweat prints when I place the earbuds back in the case after working out; moreover, it would be nice to have a wireless charging case for such amazing produc
I thought the Jabra Elite 65t’s were the best featured bluetooth earbuds, bar none. Special mention must go to the multi connect bluetooth on Jabra. Meaning you can be connected to 2 devices (not paired, ACTUALLY CONNECTED) at the same time. I’m often out with my laptop and phone. I can be listening/watching/tele-conferencing on my laptop and if the phone rings the laptop is automatically paused and the phone goes live. As soon as I finish the call the pause is released and I carry on with my laptop. This is a must have for me, as otherwise I miss calls and notifications. Only downside with the 65t was the large size making it uncomfortable for long periods in my ears. The fab new 75t solved that problem and added a slimmer USB C case and longer battery life. I am pleased as.
I’ve upgraded from the 65t’s. These are the more subtle fit with extra sound. They did require a burn in period of 5-7 hours of play back for the bass to settle down. Out of the box it’s (the bass) is really boomy, but once the drivers seltle in and the sound is great, still on the bassy side, but that app offers easy adjustment.
I am going to break the review down into sections as I got to using the product.
Packaging / Out of box experience
As with any Jabra product the out of box experience has been developed significantly in recent years. I find the unboxing like opening a new present. Pulling the drawer in the product to reveal the earbuds /the charging case and the quick start guide.
My only challenge here was to actually pull out the earbuds without thinking that I was going to damage them – they seemed quite tightly packed in to the formed plastic tray they are housed in. The case comes with precharged battery and the earbuds are charged as well. All in all it was as impressive a first view of the product noting the significantly smaller form factor to the 65t that this product is replacing.
It comes with all the necessary charging cables and replacement silicon ear tips – I have never needed to replace these so can’t comment on the simplicity of carrying this out.
Product feedback
The charging case
Significantly smaller than the previous version (almost akin to AirPods charge case) and in my eyes a much better solution that can stand by itself, open and close simply using a magnet as opposed to physical catch and charges using USB-C which is a good upgrade.
Earbuds design
Significantly smaller form factor than previous models and significantly more comfortable to ear for me.
Easier to put on and quicker to pair when taking out of the box.
Earbuds performance
Can only use right ear by itself (at the moment but I believe a software upgrade is coming to remedy this). I am no audiophile but there is a better level of punchier bass – much more than I expected. Overall a very balanced audio performance.
Very easy to wear for longer periods of time. You can also use under hats in the cold and are still able to hear / be heard.
Overall
I LOVE these earbuds and would wholeheartedly recommend them for anyone looking to invest in a new set of buds for music /handsfree calling
Jabra have a name more in making quality corporate headsets than high end music earphones. Having used various headsets from jabra for work, and previously having owned Jabra bluetooth handsfree kits, I thought these were an exciting prospect.
My view has been that if you want good bass and sound quality you need large over ear headphones – and I’ve never really liked the compromise of the size.
So in my eyes, the holy grail of earphones, is completely cordless, tiny, extremely light, with good bass and great sound clarity. Being able to connect to both my phone and my laptop simultaneously would be a bonus, since I switch between listening to music on my phone and watching programs on my laptop.
These are completely cordless, tiny, extremely light, so it’s all down to what it delivers in sound quality.
The first thing I noticed is that these deliver a lot of bass! In fact I was extremely impressed.
In terms of sound clarity it was very good too, though there was a slight hint of tinny-ness in the treble when played at high volume.
I tried these compared to, my cheap but trusty 30 nobrand wireless in ear earphones, a pair of Shure SE215, a pair of beats over ear headphones and a quick compare vs air pod pros
Compared to my no-brand earphones. These are vastly superior played back to back. In fact definitely will replace these as day to day earphone. Though of course these do cost over 5 times the price, so not a fair comparison.
Compared to Shure SE215. These have stronger bass, and clarity of the sound is very good, but I’d say the SE215 just about have the edge. However, these are completely cordless and more portable, so for day to day, I can see the practicality giving it the slight edge since these are much easier to put in than the faff of getting the shures into you ear properly. It’ll dependon just how fussy you are about the extra sound quality Vs the practicality benefits
Compared to the Beats, well the Beats have a much warmer sound to them and I’d say the better sound, however these cost substantially more and suffer from being large over ear headphones so less portable.
A quick comparison vs air pod pros showed that they were similar in quality for bass and but I found slightly better clarity of sound.
Battery life, it claims 7.5 hours between charges. I’ve managed 4 hours without problem which is more than enough for my usage.
Other nice features:-
When you take out the earphones from one ear, the music playing will pause.
There is a HearThrough mode which you can activate in the app which can remove the sound isolation and allow sound to come though. Useful if you’re walking and need to hear your surroundings.
You can connect this to two devices at once! This is in my case is extremely useful. Having paired up to laptop after the phone and hearing “two devices connected” was a welcome sign, and sure enough playing music on either would switch the sound over – perfect!
Pros
Very strong bass for in ear earphones
Good sound quality across the range
Easy to wear and comfortable with good sound isolation
Extremely portable
Can connect to two devices at once
Good battery life
Case is USB-C charging
Alexa support
Cons
Sound can still be ever so slightly tinny at high volumes
Still not as good as similarly priced over ear headphones.
HearThrough mode can amplify background noise which sounds unnatural
Expensive (170 at time of review)
In summary: These are excellent cordless earphones, very small, light, even the charging case is small. The sound quality is great considering their size, sounding like something much bigger. It can connect to multiple devices.
In my opinion, these are pretty much perfect earphones for myself as a regular commuter.
Update 9 Feb 2020: I have used these almost daily now as my regular earphones. The hear-through mode has worked well to allow for listening to travel announcements whilst on a train at the touch of a button. The sound quality is definitely good enough, though not as good as the Shures, however the extra convenience of multiple device support, no wires and easy putting on/off more than makes up for that.
I have the 65t’s and felt they were a bit too bulky/big for my ears. The 75t’s are a huge improvement on the form factor! They also fit nicely and securely in the ear!
Lots of reviewers have said these are bass heavy, but In my opinion they are perfect!
The buttons are easy to operate, better than the 65t’s, and pushing them doesn’t force the Earbuds further into your ear!
The case is a huge improvement….. Smaller, lighter, and USb-C!
One thing I have noticed is that they are mega fiddly to get out of the case! The advantage over the 65t’s case is the Earbuds are held in by a magnet, but good grief the Earbuds are snug, so getting them out can mean several attempts!
Great colour! I thought the titanium black looked too grey, but in reality the colour looks nice and executive!
Overall great product!
