Was dubious about buying an earbud without some sort of ear attachment,but thought give these a go
Well satisfied with their fit in the ear,and although I haven’t jogged or ran with them,I’ve used them in vigorous walking and climbing mode
Have had the buds 6 months now and thought I would give my opinion, these are brilliant earbuds, they fit very well and never fall out, I wear them while working in a busy engineering dept and they are comfortable and stay put, the noice cancelling works very well and the hear through function is very handy,
Calls are very clear and people generally do not know I’m not on the handset, even when outside in windy conditions,
Love the app, very intuitive
Now for the best bit, the sound,
These buds have 12mm drivers which seem to open up the sound somehow, music I have listened to for years has taken on a new dimension revealing detail and nuances I had never noticed before, the bass is deep and punchy, but not overbearing and the midrange and treble are not to shrill or thin, the sound is like a warm blanket wrapping around your ears,
The soundstage is broad and visceral and the separation within it is very impressive
As you can probably tell I love these buds and can whole heartedly recommend them
They are up there with the very best, in my humble opinio
So to begin with I am loving these so far for all the normal things you need headphones to do and its only because they do most things so well that you notice the smaller things. Both are to do with the bluetooth connections.
Firstly the range is more limited than other headphones I have used, it may be the difference between in ear and over ear but when connected to a laptop it will drop out in the next room.
Bluetooth between headphones gets patchy if there are too many other signals in the area. No idea what is too many, all I know is that if I walk past a mobile phone shop the left headphone will break up for a few seconds.
But other than these
good sound
comfortable
good battery
extremely quick pairing
I bought the Jabra 75t Elites on Prime Day and managed to get 50 off. So my first impressions are that I got myself a bargain. The app makes the equaliser fully customisable and so far the HearThrough function has been extremely helpful to allow me to listen to announcements and engage in conversation without taking the 75t’s out.
I haven’t tried the noise cancellation function yet but will update the review when I have. Though I have used them on Teams presenting to 150+ people and they held up very well with no audio/mic drop outs. They work smooth with phone calls but they are best at what they are, listening to audio.
Good range, deep bass, high treble but again it is fully customisable to suit your own ears. The tracking function is ok, it gives very accurate location data as to where the 75t’s were last turned on, but therein lies an issue, I had one showing as at home and one in Birmingham at one point. A handy reference point but not a live tracker.
I’ve never owned wireless earbuds but these have been awesome and I would definitely buy again to replace these ones.

I’ve had these for nearly a month, used them a lot, and I like them. But… No, I’ll save the but for end.
So what’s good?
First, the noise cancellation. The main benefit is that you can listen at a lower volume in a noisy environment. Like a train or a car. It makes driving in the car as quiet as it must be in, say, a Bentley; although the inevitable crash damage will probably be cheaper than if you were driving a Bentley. So, yes to train and plain, but not in a car or on a bike, the noise cancelling is too good to be safe when you need to hear the world around you.
Next, the bluetooth is great. It works for me at least through a couple of brick walls, and the danger isn’t losing the buds, it’s forgetting where the phone is. I guess that’s a downside of true wireless.
Thirdly, the sound quality is fine. I’ve never been golden eared, but it almost betters the best wired earbuds I’ve used. Without the irritating noises off, too.
Next, and maybe it should have been first, the setting up is great. The Jabra App listens in to what your ears are doing and recommends the best set of tips – at first I doubted it, but after swapping for a few days, I know it got it right: the buds have never yet fallen from my ears, and are comfortable to wear for hours.
Speaking of hours, I’ve had no issues with battery life, so for me, at least, there’s enough in the buds for a decent journey and back, and the battery in the case means I don’t need to plug into a charger more than a couple of times a week.
Impressively, the app takes you through a neat hearing test, to reveal the deterioration of the years and maybe even improve what you hear – the little graphic is rather cruel! But you only do it once, or maybe once a year, so it’s a small price to pay for the listening pleasure.
And now, that but. Nope, I’ve deleted the but – problem since with the aid of Google.
I use the buds while I’m out walking, running. The fit snugly without the discomfort of earlier designs (I have 3 sets of various Jabra buds). They do not fall out. Jabra have redesigned the bud for a better fit. The sound is crystal clear. Noise cancellation is very good. Though on breezy days you can hear the air rush past your ears. But I think that is systematic of all buds.
Calls are clear, the other participant can hear you without the need to raise your voice.
I had the OG Samsung Galaxy Buds before, so unreliable. Mine broke twice in 14 months.
These are rock solid, reliable and have much better audio (inc. bass).
Having physical buttons to press is much nicer and it even pairs with two devices at the same time. So you can answer the phone and be listening to audio on a laptop (it auto-pauses/resumes if you do.
Don’t buy audio kit from a phone company, go to an audio brand who specialises in it.
The software only Noise Cancelling isn’t great but to be fair this was added much later and if you want noise cancelling get the Jabra 85t’s.
Sound quality is superb, bass is top notch, noise cancellation is really good too. I love the fact that it’s not touch buttons so no room for mishaps. Can’t seem to be able to turn volume up from the earbuds, can’t use either earbuds independently due to technology limitations, you can use right only and the other thing km not very impressed with it is the connectivity range/distance. For a premium product I’d expect it to connect from one room to another but it doesn’t and drops out or completely disconnects.
I wear them when playing golf. They fall out maybe once or twice over a 4 hour round – which for me is reasonable. Sound quality drops off from time to time for a few seconds but nothing major. I really like how discrete they are, especially compared to competitors. Battery life, especially with the charging case, is far beyond what I expected. Not perfect, but I would definitely buy again.
I will only write a few thoughts on these buds as there are numerous detailed reviews online which describe features etc. I will focus on three things, fit, sport and how they compare to 75t.
How you feel about the 85ts will all depend on the fit. They fit me so I really like them but because there are only 3 sizes of tips in the box others may have more of a problem…from looks of reviews this could be as high as 20% – not getting a great fit affects sound quality. Jabra supplying 5 eartips of different sizes would go a long way to rectify this but they only supply 3.
Are they useful for sport…in my ears they’re not suitable as they’re not as secure as other sports orientated buds but they are great for walking etc.
What are they like compared to 75ts. They’re not as secure (75ts are great for working out) but I prefer the more expansive sound of 85ts. 85ts also are more open in design so have not got an earplug feeling which many in ear buds have.
Generally good and I use it a lot for work conference calls. Fairly comfortable even over longer periods of time and batter lasts well, especially if you can sneak 10-15 mins charging time in the case in the odd gap between calls.
Annoying is that you can only connect to two devices, means constantly finding the other devices to disconnect and the noise cancelling was not great. I wouldn’t use for sports as they are not that secure in the ear – great if you are sitting fairly still or only walking.
All in all I’m pretty happy.
These earbuds have amazing sound quality when used on my iphone, it lacks a bit on my android and also is extremely quiet compared to the iphone, i don’t know if this is just a me thing or if this happens across all androids but i mainly use the iphone so doesn’t matter to me. The noise cancellation can lack a bit on busy streets as i can hear all cars going passed but extremely quietly and can be easily drowned out with music but when inside it’s a whole different ball game, there has been many times when someone has knocked on my door that’s not even two steps away from where i work with my music at medium volume and i haven’t heard it at all, it’s like a horror game at night, you don’t hear them approach or open the door, they’re just there, they like to play games to see how long it is until i actually realise they are there some days the noise cancelling is that good!!
Excellent earbuds with ANC which is useful and an excellent charging case that prolongs the battery life of these buds. They stay in and rarely need repostioned on long runs. They pair quickly with my Garmin Fenix 6 but you have to wear the watch on the right wrist to allow bluetooth connectivity, otherwise its a frustratingly intermittent connection. This is the only area I can find fault as I do not like my watch on my right wrist. A stronger bluetooth connectivity would remedy this, Jabra please note.
I have been test driving these wireless Jabra Elite 85t Earbuds for a few weeks now, care of @theinsiders_uk . I got them because I was sick of untangling myself from the wires while working from home when listening to music and then jumping onto a Teams meeting. I’ve been toying with the idea of getting the Apple ones, but I’m really please with these. They are on the more expensive side, but the sound quality of pretty decent and I love that they are pretty comfortable, as I’m always a bit reluctant to wear earbuds, but these are decent. I love that I can listen to music on my phone and then seamlessly pick up a call on my laptop. Also I love that these have different settings, so you can block out the sound with Anti-Noise Cancellation setting or the Hear-through setting, which is pretty handy when I’m walking down the street and need to beeps aware of my surroundings. The case is pretty nifty and can be used with a charging pad. A bit disappointed that if I run up the stairs, the connection can be lost, but not sure how this compares to other models. However, overall I’m really pleased with these and would definitely recommend to anyone looking at the higher end specs of wireless headphones. #JabraxInsiders
I bought these and the 75t Active Elite as I know they have different fits and I wanted to test them out. Long story short, these win by a mile for me.
Audio quality is outstanding, hugely better than the 75t. Sound stage, frequency distribution and clarity are all fantastic, a joy to listen to. The 75ts sound pretty good but they’re a mid muddled in the sound stage/clarity.
The fit is great. I can see why some people say they feel loose, because you don’t really feel that seal. But believe me, it’s there. No chance of these falling out or even needing to be readjusted. The only downside is due to the size of them, you can feel the casing wobbling against your outer ear when moving around. Not a big deal. Overall, it’s nice to have an earbud that stays locked in but doesn’t make your ear feel plugged. Big plus for me.
The noise cancellation is out of this world. I feel like I’m living in a world of silence! When walking next to a busy main road all I’m hearing is a very light whisper of cars going by.
Easy to set up and connect, controls are straightforward and everything just works without glitch, stutter or wierdness, including multipoint connections and calls
I have now fully tested the Elite 85t and overall, I would rate these a 7.5/10. The packaging is very sleek, and the setup guides are very simple to follow. I would advise setting them up on your phone first with the easy to use app. They will connect to other devices without the full setup but I feel that the auto adaption to you personally really helps improve the experience. For the first week my ear were in a little bit of discomfort over long periods of use but I have not been feeling anything for the last couple of weeks. I would advise not jumping to the conclusion on comfort because now I am well adapted. They do feel secure in my ears but there has been the odd occasion they have jumped out. I am avoiding running with them for this reason. The battery life is a little contentious for me as I feel I get about 3 hours of use before they start to run out but that will be impacted because I am connected to both my phone and laptop at all times. If you are on all day calls then I would not recommend these because they don’t last as long as I expected. Overall, I was impressed with the ANC functionality against my over ear high end branded headphones. I would say the cancellation scores highly for me in this area and was surprised based on some reviews I have seen. I also rate the experience of someone else on the other end of the video call. I always ask if they can hear the noise coming from the background and no one can. I would like to see an improvement in the distance before cut-off. I walk about 6 meters through a glass door and they end. I am probably expecting a little too much of the technology though. All in all, I am very pleased with the Elite 85t and would recommend it to some who is looking to now splash out more than other more expensive brands but wants quality.
So after trying the 75t and finding them good but not great I wanted to find true wireless that would give ANC that were practical for the gym, and calls, but with a quality sound and the Jabra elite 85t seemed to be the perfect match. Like the 75t These are very small, as is the case, and therefore great to put in your pocket and take them with you. The earphones themselves are neat, and look great. They were easy to pair and I could connect to both my phone and tablet at the same time. The fit – with 3 sizes of tips to choose from I tried the medium, they felt a little loose but never fell out. The sound – well, after a little running in, and changing of the tip the quality is amazing. And good bass too which I love. The loose fit does let sound in and makes the ANC less effective . Other – the controls are easy, and offer great control of pausing/skipping tracks, voice control, changing volume etc. Basically everything you could want. They also have a range of white noise/soothing sounds which is a nice touch. I would imagine this would be good for a long trip where you want to close your eyes and relax!! The sound quality for calls is ok, but there seems to be a “hum” during calls. Overall, these are great with loads of features, and a compact design. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for quality true wireless earphones!!
I’ve used the previous generation Jabra Elite 75t as my daily earphones for months now, so was super excited to try the newer 85t. At 219.99, I was expecting a leap over the previous generation but unfortunately, this wasn’t the case. There’s still plenty to love about the new 85t, and if you should buy them depends on what earphones you use now. Firstly, what’s new? The 85t have more powerful noise cancellation, upgraded sound and a wireless charging case. The Sound+ app you use is great, reliable and straightforward and the ANC is superb, I was able to drown out all sorts of noises and fine tune the ANC using the Sound+ app too. I love Hearthrough, allowing you to hear the world around you at the press of a button. To achieve this new ANC power, Jabra added additional microphones and this seems to have completely changed the design of the earphones. They’re huge and I couldn’t get a comfortable fit, plus the oval shaped eartips mean that you can’t get replacement ones easily. They’re well built though, the case is sturdy and battery life is great.
Well after reviewing and testing the Jabra 75T earbuds which i found a bit of a disaster as they kept falling out then had a major technical problem, so it was with intrepidation that i pay out 219 for their supposed better brother?? First of all i had next day delivery with Amazon Prime and as soon as i unwrapped the Jabra box i found even getting into the Jabra packaging was easier than the 75T, i opened the box and took out the earbuds – charger box and spares gells plus charging lead and instructions, FORGET the instruction book the writting is in such small format its a waste of time!! however once you download the Jabra App the instructions are their in larger format, i charged the earbuds fully then installed the up to date firmware then fitted the eargells that were most comfortable for me, imediatly i found the Jabra 85T a better fit and with comfort again much better than the 75T, i conected to my audible app via bluetooth and was stunned at the clarity, these are SO much better than the 75T!! so i played with the equilizer a little and found even better claritable audio from the narritor reading the book on Audible. The next day was the real test 2 hour walk in windy conditions! 2 whole hours walking and they stayed in perfectly, this is SUCH a PLUS, with the 75T i had lost faith in Jabra but with these faith is now restored!! using the ANC i find blocking all background noise out is best for me – although they block it out so much ou cannot hear any vehicles until upon you, but still i find this the right setting for me, in extreamly windy weather such as this morning yes you do get a little wind noise BUT its perfectly acceptable, im partially deaf and have absolutly no problems hearing my audio books using my own settings, everything on the Jabra App is very easy to use – you even have a ‘Find my Jabra’ facility! theirs several different factory settings for audio with more bass etc etc but simply altering the graphic equilizer and saving for your own perfect listening is what i found easiest for me. all in all i can fully recomend these Jabra 85T earpods for long walks even on rough ground because they do stay were they are put, i do really like the magnetic earpod charger/case they just click in to their beds, ive never had them run out of charge and had on walking for 3 long walks now of at least two hours per walk so that is quite impressive too. hopefully being shower proof they will stand up to the Cumbrian weather – we’ll see!!!!!!!!!
Jabra Elite 85t Headphones will not disappoint you as the quality of sound is just superb. I enjoyed them while listening to music or movies on Netflix. You can active a noise cancellation feature which really gets you into maximum focus by blocking any background noise. Sometimes I use this feature just to cancel out my family members when trying to focus on work 🙂 Less favourite I found a new design of the headphones. It doesn’t fit as good as Jabra Elite 75t and found them also slightly heavier. The charging pod seems bigger too. I found it a bit frustrating that the right bud losing the charge faster that the left one – according the technical team this is okay because the right one has more features. I would suggest to tweak this and make the left battery slightly stronger. The mic is perfect but could not see a big difference from 75t. The battery life is good too. Overall, the headphones are great but when comparing to model 75t I am not that impressed.
The first thing I notice about the 85t headphones is that they are bigger and heaver than the 75t and the shape of the earbud are oval as opposed to round. Still they are smaller and ligher than the 65t. Once in the ear they fit better than the previous 2 iterations and I did not notice the weight difference between 75t and 85t. The sound, as usual is great. The most noticeable improvement is the noise cancelling. My work desk is in front of a bus stop and when I turn on ANC I do not hear and traffic or passenger noise. The only down size is that I would not recommend these to do sport in as when I ran in them for 1 mile they felt like they were going to fall out any minute so had to stop and put my 75t buds on instead – I would just wait for an Active version to come out which betters the 65t Active (I was not impressed with 75t Active)
I bought them because of active noise cancellation, however noting impressed me, also it has issue, if there is magnetic wave, there appears noise during the listening to music. They are Comfortable but
after 45 mins of wearing and listening to music, my ear started to get hurt.
They still need to improve it.
The new Jabra Elite 85t are the latest Earbuds from Jabra and already having a couple of good sets of buds I wasn’t expecting to be as impressed as I am.
Set up was easy and the customisation is excellent. (Again, very easy to do)
I have connected them to both my phone and my PC for work.
What stands out to me is the pure quality of sound. I use them on conference calls and they work perfectly. Not only are the calls clear and crisp but everyone hears me clearly too.
When Im not on conference calls I listen to music and news on Youtube. All i can say is wow! Music through these buds is outstanding.
Battery life is pretty good. I had conference calls for over 5 hours and they just made it.
They fit well. I have changed the rubber tips to the largest ones and I find I can wear them for hours with no issues.
Positives:
Very easy set up
Great sound Quality
Comfortable.
Noise cancellation is pretty good
Negatives:
Expensive
Conclusion: If you can afford them, well worth the investment.
I bought these Jabra earphones due to the glowing reviews. Initially I had the AirPods Pro which were brilliant but unfortunately just could not stay in my ears. I’d say for about half the price of the pros these are really good for the sound they offer. The bass is a tad bit heavy but you can easily tweak the settings in the EQ app. The additional noise cancelling that was offered via software update for free is pretty good but not amazing. The heat through mode which mimics the transparency mode on AirPods is okay too but there can sometimes be a constant hissing noise at higher volumes. The main issue I had for a while is constant dropping of connection but seems to have sorted itself out but we shall see. Over all id say it’s pretty okay.

Sound is great, battery life great – I’ve not yet managed to wear out the battery. I wear them cycling everyday and they have a great hear through feature whereby you camn hear what’s going on around you whilst still wearing them. This can be a bit annoying when it’s windy, as it accentuates wind noise. The only other issue I’ve had is that sometimes they become loose in my right ear only. Possibly with sweat or whatever, infact it came out once whilst I was going along. But i found it and it still worked! This is the one time that it happened though.
Otherwise I’m really pleased with them
High quality earphones
Really impressed with these. I looked around for a pair suitable for daily use and running, after I managed to wash my Creative Outlier Air in the washing machine (not recommended). Decided to go for a slightly pricier pair and chose these. The quality is immediately obvious.
The sound is great; big, clear and great bass. The EQ on the App allows you to play around and find your perfect level though.
They are really compact. You can barely see them once in. They are also really comfortable. The case is compact too and getting them in and out of the case is easy and feels secure.
The ANC is reasonable. There is better out there but it’s perfectly good and works. The App lets you play around with it too, to get it to work for you. It does a perfectly good job of keeping the outside world out. The hearthrough, which amplifies the outside world at a touch of the left bud, is a great feature if you think a car is approaching on a run for example.
They’re a quality earphone and I would happily recommend them to anyone.
Ordered these when they were on a sale and have been using them for around 2 and a bit months now, and id like to list the pros and cons of them
Pros
Very good sound quality and the app for them give you alot of options to pick from wether it is extra bass or a setting for podcasts, I also like the anc and hearthrough wich allows you to hear other people whilst listening to music which is handy if your commuting or want to be more aware of your surroundings,they also charge extremly fast.
Cons
I have not many problems with these except that you can only use the right bud on its own and not the left one, also I have weird ears and they fall out sometimes
Well i decided on these over the airpods pro and think i am more than happy with my choice. Great sound quality and the addition of the noise cancelling was great. Good build quality, great fit and they always stay in place even during intense workouts. The wireless charging is an added bonus. Plus the price i got it on sale was far cheaper than the airpods pro. The app is great also. Only gripe is you cant use both bud separately just one. Overall gread pair of headphones with great sound.
I have upgraded from my Jabra 65t and I am pleased that I did they are a great step up they fit the case well and don’t full out of the case when open they are also very easy when placing them back in the case. The sound is an improvement on the 65t and they charge very quickly. They come with 3 set of ear buds and I found the medium to be a perfect fit for me.
These headphones are fab! I have used them for the last month in the house, for taking calls they have allowed me to be handsfree whilst on the phone – making it easy for me to get on with housework.
They’re easy to connect using both the app and in the settings on my phone, connecting them to my laptop was also very simple.
They do disconnect if I go more than one room from my phone, which is annoying but to be expected so make sure you keep your device near by.
I like to use one headphone alone sometimes for various reasons. It is annoying that you can only do this with just the right but and not the left. Also the volume doesn’t go as loud as I would have liked, if it wasn’t for those two ‘issues’ I would rate them much better.
I have been using many types of headphones & earbuds for many years now, both wired and bluetooth. I have multiple sets from different companies. In my opinion, there isn’t one set that is ideal for all types of listening. I like a big over-ear, ANC set for when I want to really chill-out on the sofa listening to music or gaming, I have a wirefree set for weightlifting and a studio quality wired set for when I’m mixing music and plugged into my DAC. The Jabra Elite 85T have very comforably replaced my weight lifting set. They have great, balanced sound and the active noise cancellation is something I’ve previously only had for my over the ear sets. These earbuds have managed to withstand quite a few workouts without budging from my ear canals, so big credit for that – The sound quality is very good for earbuds, I wasnt expecting the same as my full-blown headphones, but they come in pretty close. With ANC turned on, there can be a bit of interference from the wind when I went running, but in my gym they are perfect. I don’t really use them for calls, but I did test them out breifly. The results were good, I could hear clearly and my test caller also said I came through ery clear. The app on Android is great, I really enjoyed playing around with the sound stage and tweaking it to my liking. So much better than trying to push the equaliser in Spotify or the music player. Overall, I think they were a solid purchase for use during my workouts. I still will revert to my other headphones when playing games/listening to music in the house, as the sound-stage isn’t as wide and the ANC isn’t as clean as my headphones.
These headphones are fab! I have used them for the last month in the house, for taking calls they have allowed me to be handsfree whilst on the phone – making it easy for me to get on with housework.
They’re easy to connect using both the app and in the settings on my phone, connecting them to my laptop was also very simple.
They do disconnect if I go more than one room from my phone, which is annoying but to be expected so make sure you keep your device near by.
I like to use one headphone alone sometimes for various reasons. It is annoying that you can only do this with just the right but and not the left. Also the volume doesn’t go as loud as I would have liked, if it wasn’t for those two ‘issues’ I would rate them much better.
As I’ve only ever had cheap wired earphones I jumped at the opportunity to try these wireless earbuds. When they arrived they were well packaged with a solidly built little carry/charge case and a short USB charge cable- a little too short to be useful to me! There are also three different sized ear gels to play with to get a comfortable fit. Once charged , the earbuds each show a green light and a voice guides you to connect to a bluetooth enabled device. So far so good! I’ve had no connectivity issues with my Samsung mobile whilst out and about, and the sound quality is excellent. However, the weighting of the buds means that they fall out easily unless they’re pushed in quite firmly. My ears are not particularly small but I found the buds a little uncomfortable if worn for more than a few minutes. Overall, they’re an excellent, top quality set of earbuds that I’m sure I’ll get used to very quickly

The design of the earbud is quite nice such as the overall size and the weights. The sound quality is acceptable.
As for the active noise cancellation function, don’t expect too much because it will definitely let you down if you have experienced others.
These earphones are brilliant. I have always been put off full wireless earbuds because of poor battery length, poor sound quality, large size that stick out of your ears and look silly. The Jabra Elite 85t change that for me. These have proven to be a brilliant set of earbuds and I have really enjoyed my first few weeks with them.
Packaging: The packaging is nice, compact and displays the product well. It is significant and thick enough to protect the product and looks sleek.
Appearance: The earbuds look great, I am a big fan of the colour and fairy minimal looks. They are small and look fantastic when compared against many other wireless earbuds. The fee and fit: The earbuds feel well build and sleek. In the ear they are very comfortable, much more comfortable than the 75t when listening for long periods. They feel secure in the ear, but slightly less secure than the previous version which had a stronger hold in the ear. I do like the 85t, but would be cautious if using them for outdoor exercise.
The sound: I really like the sound, they’re excellent. As per other reviews, they are well balanced on the sound front. The ability to manage the eq is a real plus point and allows you to adjust them to your personal taste. I have a range of settings based on what I am listening to.
Noise cancellation: dedicated ANC is fairly good. Could be slightly better and I am sure there are some headphones out there that cancel slightly more noise but these are fairly good. I do wonder whether one of my earbuds doesn’t fit securely enough as I was expecting slightly better ANC overall. Hear through function works well when you want to let some out the outside world in.
The case: The charging case looks really good and feels good in the hand. It has a nice magnetic feel when opening/closing and the earbuds slot easily in. Charges perfectly and it is a good size, easy to carry round and fit in a pocket. The case gives loads of extra battery life and keeps the earbuds going for ages. Wireless charging is a great feature. Call quality: Call quality is good, had no issues with people being able to hear me and I am able to chat on the move and in fairly noisy place.
Overall: Very happy with these and I would recommend them to others. They are expensive at 220 and at that price point I do think they could have more enhanced features such as APT-X, and the ability to use either earphone independently.
My first impressions were that it had good packaging and included, charging case, cable, and several different sized rubber ear tips to get the best possible fit. Once I downloaded the software they were easy to connect to my phone and had a good user interface to set up your personal preferences. Really good functionality including voice assistant compatibility for google and apple, active noise cancelation, hearthrough which allows you to be aware of sounds around you which is customisable (ideal for cycling when you need to stay aware of your surroundings). You can use mysound on the app to set the perfect equaliser settings for your own musical likes. Being used to a different style of ear pods it took a while to get used to the design. Overall, they have good functionality with great sound quality and good value for money.
Good sturdy packaging, easy to follow quick start guide in box. The headphones case is solid, weighty in your hand or pocket and well made but a bit slippery to handle. The Sounds+ app guides you through the process of setting up well, I didn’t need to concentrate on following instructions. The sound balance test was interesting and means that I get stereo in the middle of my head and not to one side as I do with wired headphones, obviously clever software compensating for some difference in each ear. I have listened to music, rock, pop and classical. There is good bass and I heard bits of a Fleetwood Mac track that I’ve never picked up before! I listen to a lot of podcasts live speech radio and sports commentaries, the headphones are good at this too. The noise cancelling is great, I will need to experiment more on a car journey or out walking, but it is good indoors at cutting speech or a TV. Being able to touch the left ear-pod to toggle ANC with HearThrough is great. The microphone picks up speech well when i have made calls and the the ability to change the amount of your own voice that you here, Sidetone, is an excellent function. I have used the 85Ts around my house and so far not had any bluetooth issues, the signal pickup is strong.
First and foremost, the sound. This is the hardest topic as it has a lot to do with personal preference and the music you listen to. The most high level description I could think of would be to describe them as being more like close back headphones than open back. They have 12mm drivers which produces more bass than most IEMs. This makes them ideal for electronic music, pop, other bass heavy music.
They are also great for watching movies & series. After playing with the Jabra App I was able to EQ the 85t to sound great with acoustic music too. Out the box I think they are a little bass heavy for some Instrumental genres but that’s where the App comes in handy.
The noise cancelling is great, I tested it against a few other noise cancelling headphones and I couldn’t pick a winner. This isn’t a bad thing as the others are known to be some of the best. I found while making calls the Jabra did a fantastic job, having all those microphones sure helps out. Even made a few calls while walking by a breezy river and didn’t have any issues.
Jabra have the Exercise category covered, they are splash proof (IPX4 rated), so a little bit of sweat should be fine. They also have a great fit and don’t protrude much so the centre of gravity is closer to the head. This helps them keep in place during workouts. I didn’t have any issues with the Jabra throughout a workout unlike my previous earphones. The Jabra I could put in and forget about.
The other thing I really liked about the Jabra are the physical buttons, they are much harder to accidently press whereas my other earphones are touch sensitive so while adjusting them, there is a good chance of accidently changing the settings. Some people think physical buttons are outdated but not in this case.
This was my first foray into the true wireless earphone market and I was excited to try the Jabra Elite 75t as I had seen and heard very positives reviews about them. Since receiving them I have used them pretty much everyday and have been thoroughly impressed with their quality, comfort and easy of use. The earphones themselves are quite small but fit snugly and comfortably into my ears. I have been able to wear them for extended periods of times without having any discomfort which is a big plus. As per the market standard, the earphones quickly pair to your devices once you take them out the charging case and I did like that they can pair to two devices at the same time allowing you to switch between devices easily. The headphones are very intuitive to use with a single button on each earphone to control their function when listening to media & on calls. I was especially impressed with the ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) mode which was excellent at blocking out background noise. I equally enjoyed the “HearThrough” feature which uses the microphones to actively let in background noise. This was especially useful when I didn’t want to remove my headphones in order to have a conversation in a shop for example. The sound quality itself is pretty good considering the size, although I did find it a little bass heavy. However, you can customise the EQ within the Jabra app so I was able to tone this down to suit my desired profile. I have been using the headphones regularly for calls and have been impressed with the quality here too. I never had any issues hearing or being heard despite sometimes being in noisy locations and I was able to control call functionality using the buttons on the side of the headphones. The battery life is also impressive easily lasting for 5 – 6 hours and quickly recharging when putting them in the case. I have only had to charge the case a few times so far. Despite all the positive features there are a few downsides where I feel they could be improved. Firstly, if you only want to have one earphone in, you can only use the right earphone as the left will not work on its own. I also sometimes found it hard to get to the right volume using the earphone buttons and would often overshoot the mark so would end up just using the volume buttons on my phone which was easier. Despite these shortcomings, I was very impressed with the 75t and would recommend them as a good allrounder that isn’t going to cost you a fortune
Sound quality is amazing on this thing, but the noise cancellation is certainly not it’s best feature .(Although I can only compared it to AirPods pro and Sony Wf1000 because those are the ones I have tried with that feature and they are both more expensive,) but still there is a huge difference. But if thats not the quality you looking for, sound quality is great and fits even better than those mentioned.Microphone is very mediocre just like any other ear pods I have ever tried.
I am so happy to have these, they are much better than other well known brands for comfort and sound quality. My husband has the 65t and they are great so I knew I would like these. They come with different sized attachments to fit depending on the size of your ears so no worries they will be too big or small, they are also super comfy when in. I use these for running and the gym and they have never moved or been uncomfortable. I love the sound quality and the extra features on the earbuds make them a must buy. The case for these is compact and fits easily in your pocket, it is very easy to charge and lasts ages. I have had these for weeks and while I am only using for 30-50 mins at a time, I have not had to charge the case at all. There is also an app to support these earbuds, this explains features and supports the software. All in, I have nothing bad to say about them, my husbands old pair are almost as good as he has had them a few years.
Pros:
– Can get through a really long day of conference calls no problem, as long as you get the occasional charge in between meetings
– Great natural sound for music. Maybe a touch base heavy, but it’s generally well controlled and a massive improvement over the 75t that I trialled and sent back
– Really great call quality, can adjust treble to get it clearer too. Unwanted noise filtering also works really well, I can touch just one bud or even both quite a bit to adjust, press buttons etc and almost nothing gets through to the call! Wind noise is not entirely eliminated, but it still does a pretty damned good job of it.
– Great ANC, really excellent, I am sure it is best in class. Side-tone and hear-through are also nice to have, and work well.
– Just the right size and weight, don’t feel like they’re even going to fall out and really comfortable
– Connects almost instantly to everything and the ability to connect to 2 things at once also just works! Much better than some other implementations I have come across that are inconsistent (only caveat is I think it can be a bit hit and miss with Bluetooth 3 and lower, 4 and above work flawlessly)!
Cons:
– Right bud discharges faster then the left, but only by a bit (inevitable as phone connects to right, then connects to left), but since only the right can be used on it’s own, this can be a problem if the right dies first (usually barely any left on the left anyway at this point so not really an issue in reality)
– Case charge level doesn’t update in the app, unless you put some earphones into it
– No AptX
I’m quite picky when it comes to my tech and these ticked all the boxes. They just work and the fast connection to multiple devices and good call/music quality and top notch ANC make these a solid choice!
I was expecting big things from the Jabra 85t earbuds and was not disappointed. It is a crowded market out there and I think these earbuds have most boxes ticked and I was particularly impressed with how they perform when using a mobile phone. There is very little interference or background noise which makes making calls using the 85t’s very easy. The critical thing for me when listening to music is the quality of the bass which so often lets earbuds down but the 85t’s are superb with plenty of volume available via the Jabra app. The app is very easy to navigate complete with a hearing test included to closely match your hearing with the earbuds capability. It may be my hearing limitations but I was slightly disappointed with the noise reduction facility which was not as effective as I was expecting and I could not notice much difference with same applying to the Hear Through facility. However, this was the only slight downside and more than compensated by the comfortable fit and sound quality. So in summary, a great pair of earbuds with good sound quality and as you would expect from a company like Jabra , very compatible with phone use.
I have had these earbuds now for a couple of months now and on the whole they are great.
They are better for listening to music than used to talk to people.
My own fault which is more to do with me than the buds, is that I don’t feel that fit securely in my ears even with all the rubber attachments they come with. (I have very small ears!) whilst I’m very happy to wear them on a walk, I cannot wear them to go for a run as they would fall out. when I push them back in, I inadvertently turn them off!
The noise cancellation feature is excellent, they also last a long time after they have been charged which is a great feature.
Once you have got used to all the features, and you’ve worked out how to keep them securely in your ears they are great and I would recommend them.

These are great earphones, with deep bass and warm sound, and an excellent Noise Cancellation. Excellent in every way other than the fact they wouldn’t stay in my ears which is quite important with something designed for working out. I’ve gone back to my classic headphones as I’m not a big fan of earbuds. I still recommend this product as it’s really great quality, has an excellent battery life, and a nice compact case but I’m just not an earbuds person.
These earbuds are the best sounding wireless earbuds that I have tried so far. The app makes it so easy to adjust the sound to your individual taste. The noise cancelling is also great for an earbud and cancels out most of the surrounding noise. The only issue that I have found is that the fit is not as secure as some other earbuds because of the oval shape of the silicone tips, however they are extremely comfortable and you hardly notice that you are wearing them. They are not suitable for active workouts, but they are secure enough for everyday use and light jogging. The case can be wirelessly charged, which is a a great feature as well as USB C.
I highly recommend these and I will be purchasing a different colour next month when they are released.
I have been using the Jabra elite 75t for a few weeks now. I use headphones for multiple web calls a day for work and also to listen to music whilst at the gym. The instructions and set up were really easy to follow on multiple apple/android/Windows devices and I like that you can have 2 connected at any one time as I means I can generally keep my work phone and computer connected. I found the controls easy to use and remember for volume, hear through etc. And have found hear through settings very good when working at home whilst looking after my little girl. Whilsy connected to my mobiles I can use the dull range of controls however when connected to my Surface Pro via for calls Via teams I found you lost some control for muting etc. As it was connected for media purposes and not for call functions but I think that would be the same with any wireless earbuds. I have found the earphones very comfortable to wear and think they look quite smart too as you don’t have over ear elements although they feel secure and no sticks picking down. Despite being small they feel firm and havent come loose once yet even when exercising. I am also very impressed with the sound. It is very clear and the hear through function is brilliantly clear also. Another big bonus for me has been the battery life. I use them hours each day mid week and tend to only have them plugged in for some time at the start of the week and replace onto their case after each use. Battery hasnt even dropped from green yet. The only downsides for me are you can only use the right earbud alone. If I’m using just 1 I can really feel it at the end of the day if it has always been the same one. Also the lack of ability to control call controls on Teams calls. Otherwise I am very impressed
I acquired the Jabra Elite 85t ear buds as an early Christmas present for my wife to use.
She could not have been more thrilled.
The Jabra Elite 85t ear buds are easy to use and set up. They easily linked to her android phone, with simple and easy step by step clear instructions.
She especially likes the active noise cancellation aspect — it really does cut out the noise — so much so she can’t hear me talking/calling her!
She states the sound quality is absolutely excellent. They are by far the best ear phones she has ever used. She loves listening to her relaxation music and meditation tracks; they are perfect for this with the active noise cancellation feature.
She also really liked in the set up where the sound is tailored to each of her ears. She appreciates the fact that she can decide to listen to a podcast on her phone, on the go about the house, whilst leaving her phone downstairs she can continue listening to the podcast through her ear phones when still upstairs or around the house with the same quality sound!
The ear buds are fairly comfortable with a choice of three covers– She used the smallest ear buds and they are perfect.
The battery life seems good; with the only downside she found, is the small length of cable supplied for charging the charging case. The case itself is very robust, smart looking, pocket size and neat; it’s got good functionality with different coloured lights indicating the state of the battery life.
All in all an excellent quality product, one I would thoroughly recommend well worth the money.
Jabra testimonial
The Jabra Elite 85t is my first ever product from Jabra. I have used TWS earphones from other notable brands, so I did have a good idea of how other earphones perform.
The unboxing experience of the Elite 85t is nothing extraordinary. You are greeted with the earphones case, the two earphones, a USB-C wire, and two extra pairs of ear tips.
I was prompted to download the Jabra app on my mobile phone. This is one of the strong points of these earphones — the accompanying app is a solid bit of software. There are a lot of personalisation options in the app with a solid equaliser.
One of the points that I personally dislike are the buttons on the earphones. For me, other brands have more intuitive ways to adjust the volume and skip tracks etc. Similarly, tapping on the left buds only cycles through ANC and hearthrough, but no option to turn either of these off. To turn off both systems, you would have to manually go into the app and switch them off.
Another software bug for me is the continuous notification of finding your Jabra. This persistent notification often plagues my phone and the only way to remove this is go force stop the app.
In relation to the sounds, the Jabra have incredible sound and the ANC is a major bonus.
However, I have found the earphones to not fit into my ears as well as other TWS earphones and I have even switched tips but they are not snug enough in my ears.
Great pair of wireless earphones. Fits comfortably in your ears, quite snug and doesn’t fall off easily. The Automatic noise cancellation (ANC) is also very good but would advice not to use this while not listening to music or on calls as it becomes quite annoying to hear your own breathing and every pulse beating in your head 🙂
Hear through feature is helpful to keep you sane and hear surrounding sounds as even without ANC, it blocks off majority of background noise due to the snug fit of the earphones. The earphones are quite equipped functionally. Still trying to memorise all the cool button controls but you can customise them as well via the Jabra sound+ app. Loads of other features in the app if you want to have a personalised music or ANC profile etc.
With a full charge of earphones along with carrying case, the earphones provided a total of around 21 Hrs of use. Then again starting from empty, I tried a quick charge of 18 minutes and it provided 21% case and 57% of earphones battery which is quite impressive. You can view the battery status of carrying case and earphones L&R via the Sound+ app.
In terms of connectivity with devices it worked effortlessly 2 devices at a time with my Android phones, iPad and Smart TV. You can switch between devices seamlessly by pausing audio on one and the other connected device one starts working automatically. In term of distance from the device the connection/ audio dropped a bit when moved to a different room. I guess when more than 10 feet away. The only issue I faced in terms of connectivity was with my Lenovo T440 work Laptop. It may be down some driver issues which I need to trouble shoot hence was not able to use them for my conference calls. But hopefully should be able to sort this out.
The only annoying limitation i found is that left earbud doesn’t work independently of the right one unless in close proximity (roughly the distance between your own two ears). So you better not lose the right ear bud :). Hoping this can be improved in future updates as it gives you flexibility of using just 1 ear bud at a time which comes in very handy in certain cases.
Overall these earphones are worth the money with ergonomic design, loads of features and good battery life.

The first impression of the Jabra Elite 85t was WOW! The sound was fantastic, extremely comfortable to wear, and ANC worked very well. Now nearly 3 weeks in and my option hasn’t changed a bit and I love them even more.
First the sound, I wasn’t expecting the sound quality like this mainly because of their sizes. Sound is something that can be subjective but this is definitely the best in-ear sound quality I have ever heard and the most expensive in-ear I have used was Beats by Dr. Dre UrBeats. I tend to use my QC35 for music and movies and only use in-ear while I am on the move. The QC35 still has better sound quality but I haven’t touched it for the past 3 weeks and I don’t notice the difference in sound quality if I don’t compare them side by side.
These are also very comfortable to wear. They are very light and after a while, you forgot their existence. As mentioned, I don’t usually wear in-ear for a longer period of time, partly due to their sound quality and partly due to comfort. My ear canals started to hurt about an hour but it is not a problem with the Jabra. I finished tenet wearing them. They also look very good, subtle, non-intrusive and blend in with everything.
The ANC worked very well, it filters out most of the road noises when Iam out running. I have tried Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, SONY WF-1000XM3 and of course the AirPod pro. Again, without a scientific test, I think the Jabra is slightly behind the Bose and Sony but ahead of the AirPods.
I would also like to comment on the button rather than touch controls as there are people complaining about about them. I actually like them, especially when wearing them under a hoody while out running. Touch controls don’t work under those scenarios.
Ok now the questions, why this over Bose, Sony or Apple, here are my view
Sound quality Comfort ANC looks
Jabra 4 5 3 4
Bose 4 4 4 3
Sony 5 4 3 3

Jabra may not be the best in most categories, it’s the second best in most categories. As an all-rounder, it wins hands down.
Having owned a few other sets of wireless earbuds (including the previous model, the Elite 75t’s), I had one or two gripes with each set that I was hoping the Jabra Elite 85t’s would quash. I was hoping they would tick all the main boxes: sound quality, fit, and battery life.
On first impression, I was worried that the Elite 75ts weren’t going to stay in my ears very well, as they lacked the “fin” that other buds have, which when twisted upon insertion, lock into the natural shape of the ear. However they do still have a “twist” method of insertion in the ears, staying in place (as far as I gather) with just very good moulding of the body of the headphone into the concha. I did find them to sometimes require a little “relocking” during running sessions (especially the left bud, though over the years I’ve come to the conclusion I just have a weirdly shaped left ear). The silicone earpiece is now an ovular shape, which Jabra states gives a better seal in your ear canal.
The Jabras also sound excellent, much improved over even the 75t’s (which were already great), thanks to the increased driver size. They are a little bass heavy, but this can be adjusted in the Jabra Sound+ app, which provides a decent equaliser to tinker to your preference of bass, mids and trebles.
Passthrough mode returns from the 75t’s, but Jabra have also added ANC with the 85t’s. Not commuting these days, I’ve not been able to give the earphones the most ideal test, but they have worked as well as other ANC headphones that I’ve got in my testing around the house.
Battery life on the Jabras is also the best I’ve come across on any wireless buds so far – I think I’ve only charged the case once with a week of fairly heavy use. Jabra claims 7.5 hours with the buds themselves and another 28 hours in the case, and I believe that. The case has also been improved over the 75t’s as it can now be charged wirelessly.
Overall, the Jabra Elite 85t true wireless earbuds are excellent wireless earbuds and very worthy of the praise they have been receiving. Fit feels nice, sound is excellent, and with the addition of ANC and a wireless case they are a worthy upgrade over previous generations.
So after months of research I narrowed it down to these and the Apple Airpods pro!
I listened to the pros and they were lacking bass and so I took the chance based on reviews and brought these! Day one, and the sound on these is actually amazing, I initially wanted them for the bass, and these are very bass heavy!!! But the overall sound in general is really good, very detailed!! Tweaking Spotify’s equaliser and the apps equaliser does wonders!
Noise cancelling and hear through works well and with the noise cancelling turned off really bumps up the battery life!! However, I have notice switching apps on the iphone, the music has momentarily jumped a few times, hoping this is not a regular occurrence. They are pricey but worth it!!
So far I love them!!!!
Ok, so apart from the normal earphones you get along with your phone I’ve never had a decent set…until now! I have purchased the Jabra Elite 75t and I absolutely love them. I adore the handy little carry case and the fact that they secure in so well and the ease of charging.
I usually use the ear phones when out for walks and whilst doing chores around the house or out shopping. I really enjoy listening to books as well as music on them. I’ve found the battery life to be excellent and connecting them to my phone was super simple. I’ve had no issues at all with them staying connected when out and about, I simply lift them out when I’m ready and they are good to go.
The app is really straightforward and very user friendly and it’s fantastic that the sound is customised for me before I started using them. The only slight negative (and it wouldn’t put me off recommending them) is the size in my ear. I have very small ears and sometimes the ear piece would fall out so I have to make sure o secure it properly, it also helped when I changed to the smaller ear gel (there are 3 sizes that come with the ear phones).
I think the sound quality is absolutely fabulous, my partner phoned me to check on the quality and she could not believe that my phone was in my back pocket and I was only using the ear phones – she thought it was clearer than actually talking on the phone! I was also out walking earlier this week and I walked past workmen drilling and the sound quality was super even with all that noise in the background.
Overall a great buy.
I am extremely happy with my Jabra earphones, it was easy to set up and I enjoy using them. The app is easy to use and to customise the button settings, I like that you can select up to 3 settings for each of the buds. I think Hearthrough mode is really helpful when going shopping or talking to people, which lets you use the earbuds and hear people and surroundings. The battery life is impressive too, you can see the percentage of the case and earbuds on the app. My usage is medium (1-3 hours per day every other day) and in 3 weeks time of using them I only had to charge them once. It connects automatically when you put them in and plays music immediately, which is nice. Overall, I enjoy using them and I am happy with my choice and I would definitely recommend when looking for a good quality wireless earphones.
I have pretty bad misophonia, so being in an office with other people eating or chewing gum, or trying to sleep whilst my partner snores away, is basically a complete nightmare, so I have been on a never ending hunt for decent noise cancelation headphones that I can actually afford.
So let’s start with the positives! The Noise Cancelation is actually amazing! Literally can’t hear a thing of the outside world and love that with a click of a button I can switch to hear what people are saying, amazing feature. I also enjoy that the headphones include being able to play soothing noises like rain etc which is great when I am trying to sleep. The app is really easy to use and I had no issues setting up the headphones after i had unboxed them. They fit in my ear with ease and I do not feel like they are going to fall out.
Okay, now to the one and only negative! The echo of when you wear them is sooo annoying. I can’t use these headphones for a phone call as my voice sounds like I am under water… which is not ideal! This is also an issue if I wear them to the gym as I can mostly just hear myself running…I honestly think this is due to how good they are at cutting out external sound, but defiantly something to be aware of.

I’ve been debating for a while on investing in some wireless earbuds and given the plethora of cheap earbuds on the market it took a fair bit of research before plumping for the not inexpensive Jabra 75t wireless earbuds.
Not one for reading instructions I was keen to see how the intuitive the pairing process was so instantly switched on the buds and looked for them on my phone. No luck….so time for the instruction manual which pointed me to the Sound+ App I would need to download. This then lead to a lengthy firmware update which was somewhat frustrating. However once completed the the buds connected and I was away.
Initially the buds felt a little cumbersome but after some manipulation they settled in a comfortable position and away I went. Control is mostly though tapping the buttons on the buds in a certain order and, to date one week in, I’m still struggling to come to terms with the more complicated sequences. However the relatively simple pause/start, volume up/down and “hear through” sequences I use the most are easy to master. In particular the hear through mode I find most useful as predominantly I use the buds when running in the evenings. This allows you to hear your surroundings without needing to remove the earbuds from your ears. You can also adjust how much ambient sound can be heard by adjusting the Hear Through slider found in the Sound+ app. Great when you’re running near traffic.
Charge is good but I’m yet to use them for a prolonged period (greater than 1 hour) and I usually drop them straight back into the charging case after use which, by the way has a real premium silicone feel to it and comes with its own charging cable. So in summary a great experience so far but I feel like I’m only scratching the surface of their overall capabilities.

I recently upgraded to the Jabra Elite 85t from the Elite 75t. The newer version are even better! You really notice the bigger drivers in the earbuds. They produce a better quality of sound, particularly for bass. I had issues previously with the headphones clashing with my bluetooth smartwatch. The issue seems to be fixed with this newer version, using the Jabra app and my smartwatch at the same time now works seamlessly.
I was slightly concerned with the oval earbud design as I’ve only ever used round in ear buds before. After using them for a while they have proved just as comfortable, possibly even more so.
Battery life is excellent and being able to put them back in the case for a while to charge up on the go is handy.
I’d highly recommend the Jabra 85t to anybody looking for wireless earbuds.
I was considering purchasing another brand of ear pods but I was lucky enough to be selected to give these a try. Before I received them I read a review and discovered the quality of these were better than what I was originally going for. The packaging was simple but classic and felt like a premium product. Upon opening them the ear pieces themselves are a nice dark grey and expensive looking. In the box there is the charger which easily sits in the palm of your hand . I also like how the magnetic pull ensures the ear buds slot nicely into it. The ear piece itself is very comfortable in my ears, they are a little fiddly as the control button is on the surface and awkward to avoid when popping them in. They are also water resistant so no worries if going for a run. They were easy to set up with the app and wireless connection. Also the sound can be adjusted on the app to your personal preference. Now importantly the sound, they were fab, good bass sound, good isolation so background noise was omitted. Clear clarity on phone calls where I could hear easily. Overall really impressed with these.

Great Ear Buds when connected to Android or IOS. Pros: – The fit is great and semi-comfortable for my ears. I am wearing these for long sessions and it’s comfortable, to begin with then my experience is my inner ears begin to ache but it’s not too bad if I loosen the fit to my ears. I was initially worried about the open design and oval-shaped buds, but I was very pleasantly surprised in the end. – The sound quality is great, the bass is solid. If you want more bass you can always use the EQ on the app (which is also great). – ANC and HearThrough modes are fantastic. I don’t know how ANC compares with other premium models firsthand, but it seems perfect for my needs. – Wireless case is great. Sleek design and wireless charging, is good to have just need to get a wireless charger now to test it out. – Battery life is as advertised, and pretty much what you would expect from a premium pair nowadays. – Call quality is very clear. Cons – Multipoint is great if it worked I’m getting intermittent disconnections with my Ipad the sound keeps dropping while watching youtube videos and I’m not sure why as this doesn’t happen with my Samsung mobile that’s also connected therefore I’m not sure if this is a software issue. UPDATE: – This was solved with a software update and now works as expected
I have owned the 65T’s for a few years now and they have been a solid performer in that time. Truth be told, I actually prefer over the ear full sized headphones but in these times, they are not exactly practical especially since I wear glasses as well! I’ve found that I’ve been using the 65Ts a lot more and so when I got this chance to nab the 85Ts I eagerly did so!
Having spent some time with the 85T I must say that they are quite the upgrade over the 65T! Obviously, I’ve skipped a generation in between but this has made me appreciate them all the more. The addition of ANC on the 85T is like night and day when compared to the 65T and the sound is so much fuller and musical, with a noticeable bass that the 65T lacked.
Functionality wise, there’s more to tweak with the 85T, and the MySound app customising the sound to my ears does seem to work its magic! Also, you now only need to tap the earpiece one time to switch between ANC and “HearThrough” modes. Speaking of which, the “HearThrough” mode is a functionality that I absolutely cannot live without these days. It means you don’t have to take off your headphones when you need to hear the outside world, or to speak to someone whilst on the move, especially these days!
The 85T earbuds don’t fit as snugly as the 65T due to their spherical earbuds but I didn’t think they would fall out at any time, and they haven’t done so either so far! Overall, they’re smaller as well which you do get the feeling they’re jutting out of your ears a bit more especially since they’re also a bit heavier. The other standout feature is the charging storage case. When you put the earphones back in they “snap” back in due to magnets?! Pretty cool as you know they’ve slotted into place properly. However, they are a tad harder to get out due to this too! Also, the lid doesn’t click into place like the ones for the 65T one but not a problem so far.
Another rather nifty feature of the case is that it supports wireless charging! So, when I get home I can just plonk the case on a wireless charging pad and don’t have to worry about cables, but you can still use a USB-C cable if you prefer!
Overall, I am very happy with the 85T headphones and like I said before, they’re a worthy upgrade over my trusty 65Ts. The ANC and “HearThrough” modes make life so much easier! Plus, with Jabra’s legendary experience in making quality voice hardware, makes the 85T an absolute joy to use whether it’s for music or voice calling. A big thumbs up!!
I had this great opportunity to test Jabra Elite 75t. So before I had a first go with new Elite 85t I had some expectations. I was absolutely pleased with the 75t’s. The 85t’s on the paper been very promising. True ANC, bigger 12mm driver, wireless charging as a standard. I expected bigger sound, better ANC experience. But my assumptions been wrong in terms of sound reproductions. The Elite 75t are known as a bit boomy. Sound signature for me was excellent, after few tweaks in Sound plus app everyone could adjust the level of bass to his preferences. With bigger 12mm driver I thought that the sound will even bigger, even more bass. What I actually found was more clarity, more details, more mature signature, wider soundstage, surprisingly less bass out of the box, but that was very positive for me. It’s the next level comparing with previous model. Next thing was the new shape of the earplugs tips. I was used to the 75t’s. They fit great, deep in the ear canal. Perfect for any sport activities, running, exercising you name it. New shape of the ear tips in Elite 85t doesn’t get as deep as the 75t’s. Initially I was a bit scared that they will drop off my ear. But I can say for sure now – the new shape seat in ear canal more gentle, less fatigue for long listening session – but still confident for any sport activities. I run, jump with skipping rope – no problems whatsoever. Additional two sets of tips in two sizes will be handy for anyone with bigger or smaller ear canals to get perfect fitting. The ANC. That’s a game changer for me comparing any different top brands of true wireless earbuds. You can adjust level of noise cancelling for your preference with Sound plus app. That’s I think ,the strongest point of new Elite 85t. Phone conversation on highest level even in very loud environment thanks to ANC. Wireless charging allows you to top up batteries quickly when needed. For me new Elite 85t are the best true ANC earbuds at this moment. It’s the mature version of predecessor Elite 75t with many small and big improvements which makes the perfect companion on the go.
From the unboxing experience to actually using it, everything is great about these earbuds. I have reviewed many earbuds , but have never experienced anything like this when it comes to ANC quality, battery levels are very good, wireless charging a big plus, sound quality very good and is now less bass heavy compared to the 75t which suits my personal taste, the ear tips are very good and i did manage to get snug fit. Multipoint connection works a treat , i had one connected to my MBP and other to my phone. Music stops as soon as it’s removed from the ear. The ANC Levels can be controlled how much you like which is very big plus. I played a video to simulate a noisy place and it almost cutout all the noise when i was standing next to the speaker, quite impressed. I have already recommend this to some of my friends who Sought my advise from me their next earbuds. my use case is Webex /zoom etc meeting , watching movies , playing music etc. My only gripe is i do feel like removing them for 10-15 mins after 5-6 hours of constant use before reusing them again.
I used to think that anything sound based had to be from one of the big hitters like bose or seinnheiser to be decent, however i picked these up in a black friday deal and am very suprised just how good they are.
They connect to 2 bluetooth devices at once including my samsung watch so its perfect for running.
My favourite feature is the app that makes you take a mini hearing test to give you a fully custom sound profile.
Battery life is about 8 hours and the noise cancelling is very good.
Brilliant set of headphones if you are an active person.

Cant fault the sound, but issue re charging, that i think i have resolved with help from the helpsite on App. Also had an issue with my phone connection, constantly dropping out and sometimes disconnecting. Used the App and help centre and did get an email response from someone. My son has a set that he got last December, no issues. My wife has tried mine and liked them (actually have bought her a set for Xmas). They appear to work fine on my work phone? Common denominator is, neither of the 3 devices mentioned don’t have the Jabra app installed?? Only my pers phone has the Jabra app on it an appears to be the only device with issues.
Like the fit and the ease of charging, just not sure they will ever live up to my wired Bose NC earbuds. Ta

Like them alot. Comfortable, sound seems good enough but I’m not super fussy so can’t be bothered to talk about treble, bass, mid range, blah blah blah. That being said, I have not tried to alter the settings and the bass does seem a bit overwhelming on some tracks so may need to look at that.
Seem to work well with calls.
Only thing that bothers me is that you can’t listen with just the left ear in but can with the just the right ear. Sometimes I need to have one ear in only and I’d prefer to alternate the plugs now and then when doing this.
Got these after the price drop when they introduced the 85t. Still expensive but more reasonable to me.
Once you can figure out which one is LHS or RHS I found these are a joy to use.
Been used extensively whilst an inpatient on a busy , noises hospital ward and although I was using them to listen to audible books it was still blocking the back ground noises during gaps in the audio.
The one thing I wouldn’t recommend them for is use on the public highway as the ANC is just that good.
Battery life appears to be greater than spec, but that could have some bearing to the audio being used.

Absolutely perfect, the sound is fantastic hear through so great so you don’t have to keep removing them, battery life is obscenely good and recharge very fast…. use them daily while at the gym and riding my mountain bike and they never move I’ve not once worried about loosing either of them
Just perfect couldn’t recommend enough I will be buying another pair if something happens to these ( daughter steals them )
These headphones are the most expensive set I’ve ever bought. Normally I’m quite satisfied with wired, but I thought it’d be a good idea to invest in a Bluetooth set. After watching several review videos, I concluded that these were probably the best. I’ve had them for a few months now and I’m really impressed with the sound quality. It’s nice that you’re able to adjust the settings for preference as well. The only downside is that I think my pair has a little bit of a charging problem, I tried to contact the support service for some assistance but it wasn’t much help. They still work well and it isn’t a massive inconvenience, but when you’re paying this much, it would be nice to have a faultless produc
After downloading Sound+ App and set-up to the recommended equalisation thru the app.
Paired to iPhone opened Amazon Prime Music and bingo decent sound output at 50%.
Strong bass (maybe too deep) sound quality as good as items costing double. Then up popped a Firmware update which took e few minutes to install and it was back to trying all music genres -Classical, Jazz, Rock, Heavy Metal etc. The sound was quality was flawless. With Active Noise cancelling and proper earbud switches (not touch sensitive) they are good comfortable earbuds. I was slightly disappointed with the telephone hands free but it did not detract from the solid quality of the product.
Highly recommend these the packaging, charger and ear-budsare well worth the cos

Finally Jabra gets it right, previously had the 75ts but the bass was unbearable even when adjusted. Was apprehensive about getting the 85ts incase the sound was along the same lines. Thankfully its been addressed and you get a better all round sound comparable to the sony wf-1000xm3. Noise cancelling is excellent good fit, great battery life with wireless charging. Delighted to have finally found a pair of wireless buds il be keeping.
Comparing to Galaxy buds live(latest Samsung ear bud) no sound lag when using on Ios,Macos,Windows,Android devices. Comfortable beyond and above. Sound quality better than Bose QC35 over ear. Active and passive ANC – a next level! Sound through – a wow! Wireless charging case, battery life, call quality meting all expectations. Supports 2 unparalleled devices. Worth every penny. Almost forgot app features very impressive, and yes these available across the platforms not just IOS or Android but also Windows.
Finally!!!!
I can’t tell you how many headphones I have been through trying to find the perfect mix between quality sound and good for gym training, running and cycling. Airpods 2 have been my go to for a couple of years as they are great for staying in my ears while training but sound quality was average and backhground noise always annoyed me. I didn’t want to spend 160+ on another pair but having sent back too many cheap options, didn’t feel I had a choice. Review after review led me to going for these 75T’s and after 1 week of solid use I am delighted. ANC is a new thing for me so while some say it is average compared to Airpod pro’s I think they are awesome, sound quality is superb and I still can’t work out how they manage to seal so well in my ear and stay put while training but they do and I can now stop searching for wireless earphones that are ideal for me. Win!!!
The Jabra Elite 75T’s cover a lot over bases that I consider necessary for Bluetooth IEM’s. Dual device connectivity with active call switching, check. Active noise cancellation which is configurable via the Jabra app, check. A degree of water & dust resistance (IP55), check. User configurable sound or EQ (via the app), check. Call & music control via the IEM’s, check. Digital assistant (Siri, Google & Alexa), check.
These are feature rich IEM’s however there are some notable things missing. The biggest is the lack of high definition audio codecs, which will ultimately affect the sound quality if you are listening to high bit rate or lossless music files. The Elite 75t’s only support SBC & AAC audio codecs, there is no support for aptX, aptx-HD or LDAC. This is a serious omission, so what does this mean in the real world, if you’re an iPhone user not a lot. iPhone utilises the AAC codec and it’s highly optimised in the iOS operating system. However, if you’re an Android user, then you’re potentially missing out on the ability to listen to your music in the highest possible quality, and considering the cost & competition this is disappointing.
Ease of use is where things get interesting with the Elite 75T’s, the Jabra Headphone app makes the initial set up of the IEM’s a breeze. It walks you through a hearing test so you can configure them to your personal tailored sound profile, it also allows you to configure the button controls on each IEM to your own personal taste. I honestly haven’t seen any other IEM’s from a mainstream manufacturer that you allow you this degree of customisation. The app also takes care of other duties like providing an equaliser to tailor the sound to your liking and also the level of active noise cancellation, update the firmware of the IEM’s. Finally there is also the Find My Jabra function, which can help you find lost earbuds, it can locate each individual ear bud and get it to play a high pitched sound to aid finding them. Now that’s a really nice touch!
To conclude, for iPhone users the Jabra Elite 75T are a no brainer, cheaper than the competition, more features & better sound quality the competition. For Android users it’s not quite so clear cut, there are equally capable competitors out there that support more HD audio codecs, so in theory should produce a better sound. However in testing I found that not to be case, the Jabra’s held there own so colour me impressed!
Do you like bass in earphones? Then these are the buds for you – the bass is enormous!
– SOUND –
Once adjusted – awesome. Out the box – I never thought I’d say it for a pair of tiny earbuds, but they probably have a bit too much bass by default that overpowers everything else somewhat. I typically listen to music with quite a lot of bass, and I felt like my brain was being liquified… My normal EQ settings are very similar to the “Energetic” EQ mode in the Sound+ app, but that made it unlistenable.
However, this is a really easy fix with the really convenient and easy to use Sound+ app. I turned the bass down a touch in the equaliser and they now sound awesome. Great clarity and range, and my go to test track sounded exactly how I’d want it. Lows clear, and highs never getting distorted even at high volume. Overall very impressed after some tweaking.
An annoyance I have is you can only use the right earbud alone as the left connects to the right, rather than your phone. Shame really as like to have the options, but not the end of the world. It does mean though that if you take the right bud out, even temporarily to hear, the music will shut off.
– CALLS –
Everybody I have spoken to on the phone has said I sound very clear with no real background noise, and the quality of what I am hearing is crisp and clear. The sidetone feature is great to be able to hear yourself somewhat whilst speaking, and allows you to still comfortably speak with both earphones in rather than having to take one out to save you echoey boomy head voice. Not perfect but a definite qol improvement.
– FIT/COMFORT –
I always go for the largest earbuds and these provided a great seal and block out plenty of sound on initial testing. Unfortunately for me, they leave somewhat to be desired on the move. The larger size tends to gradually want to slip out for me, especially after significant talking, and the smaller eargel is just too mall to adequately block out sound and create that good seal. One thing – be careful when taking off the eargels, they have a very secure fit and the silicone doesn’t like stretching.
I like how small these are in your ear, and they definitely look swish. I do wish they had a slightly rubberised texture though, like the active, as they are VERY slippery to handle so you had better take care!
– USABILITY –
Dead simple. The Sound+ app is really easy to use and allow for good EQ adjustment, presets, earbud shortcuts and more. You can configure each earbud for single, double and triple tap commands from a preset list. Which covers most bases. Only thing these earphones could have maybe done with is volume controls or at least an option to use the button press combinations to adjust this, but hey ho.
Battery life is stellar on these. I have used for almost a full day and never run out. Chances are you will have breaks during wearing, and these little charge-ups mean you will rarely run out of battery during a day – if ever.
– NOISE CANCELLING/HEARTHROUGH –
Active Noise cancelling arrived on the earphones via a firmware update in October – the first time any earphones have got this after launch. This adds a really great feature to these already great earbuds and it works very nicely indeed, blocking out a very large amount of background noise. As they aren’t designed for noise cancelling, it isn’t the strongest and isn’t adjustable but gets the job done nicely.
Heathrough is also a great feature that really does allow you to hear the surrounding world with your buds in – and is adjustable in the Sound+ app. Also handy for those times you maybe want the “do not disturb me” look out and about but want to hear all.
– CONCLUSION –
A good buy, and you get a lot of bang for your buck. Good sound, lots of features and great battery life. Noise-cancelling now makes these even better for no extra cost as well! I’d go for the active model over these for the better feeling buds and waterproofing, but these will always be that bit cheaper.
This was my first experience with wireless earbuds and it has been surprisingly pleasant. They fit quite nicely in the ear and I’ve had very few occasions where I was worried about them falling out of my ear. It supports multiple devices and can work well but occasionally I need to disconnect my phone so that the laptop can pair, then pair my phone back. After that it works well, switching between the 2 devices without an issue. The audio passthrough is my favourite feature. It plays back the microphone through the earpiece with practically zero latency and sounds very clear. Call quality is very good. I have no complaints about it. Same with battery life. It lasts for many hours and I haven’t managed to drain them yet. They are comfortable for the first hour, afterwards, my ears feel a bit irritated. Overall, these are fantastic earbuds and I would definitely recommend them!
