Owned for 2 years, never without them. Great buds, but watch out for the fit.
These are amazing. They were a gift to me a couple of years back, and they never leave my side. The battery life has been excellent, they’re extremely robust (I actually had the case drop out of a pocket in the street on a wet london night, found everything and they’re totally unharmed), and they sound amazing.

One point though, even the largest gels just don’t hold well in my ears. I’ve lost the left bud twice while working in places it was very hard to find it – but luckily I have a metal detector.

I’m hunting for aftermarket gels now to see if I can find anything better. I really can recommend these though, they’re excellent and the price now is unbeatable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but don't move your head
Great sound and very good noise cancelling but the for is very lose. If you twist your head or look down they will fall out, even with the largest ear buds installed.

Quality
These are great earbuds. They are very quick to connect and importantly for me they can connect to two devices at the same time this means I can connect to my mobile and laptop and switch between them seamlessly without needing to disconnect.

Used mostly for calls and podcast but sound quality seems very good.

Sound quality A+++
Perfect, easy to set up, sound quality way over the top, better than my studio headphones, surprised

Wow
I lost my wireless earbuds and after some time of searching decided to order another set. My previous ones were Melomania 1, very nice sound. On the day these arrived I found my earbuds, but I was tempted to try these anyway. I did like the idea of noise cancelling, since I often go for walks near busy roads and wanted to be able to listen to music while walking.

But these are truly superior headphones. I was extremely happy with my other earbuds, but these are amazingly comfortable and sound so good it felt like a step into another world. I have no vocabulary for describing the quality of sound, except to say that everything sounded so alive, so rich, so deep.

And the noise cancellation is absolutely out of this world. Actually the headphones combine both passive and active noise cancellation. I went for a walk thinking that active noise cancellation was working, and was entirely satisfied. But it was not! Once switched on everything except the music vanished.

The talk through feature is also great. Microphones pick up outside sounds and send them to you via the speakers. Conversations amazingly become clearer. Honestly it all feels like magic to me.

I have an iphone. Connection was pretty well instantaneous. The Jabra app is very nice too, and I am particularly pleased that it keeps a record of where your headphones are! That will probably save me a lot of time and money.

I realise they are pretty pricey. Actually I would not have paid full price and bought these via a “warehouse” deal. But now that I have tried them I can’t imagine anyone being disappointed even at full price. Really, how could they be any better?

Simply Mindblowing performance
Firstly, these have a premium feel that justifies the price tag, I got them at 90 for which (at this price point) have no competitors. The fit and feel are good and suitably adjustable. Had some issues getting the volume loud enough. (was due to my Huawei phone, and required a developer mode alteration to settings). But since then have worked flawlessly. Lots of configuration options through the app. Including one killer feature. When I initially got them set up, I was impressed by the sound quality sure. But after running the frequency hearing test the sound literally came alive once they were tuned to my hearing. If I lost them I’d buy them again without hesitation.

One more thing: The noise cancellation can also be tuned to environment, such as turning a busy rail station into total silence, even without music playing. Incredible buds

Secure fit, great app, tweak your equalize
These are my thoughts after using this product for about a month, versus a year of Air Pod Pro use.

Comfort:
One of the reasons for purchasing these, is that I found that the Air Pod Pros can be knocked out of your ear easily, by doing something as simple as moving your hand towards your face to scratch an itch. I had no such issues with the Elite 7 Pro, in fact they felt incredibly secure, and I didn’t feel concerned about them falling out, even if sprinting.

This security does come at a price of comfort during prolonged use. For me, I started to feel like they were too far up my ear canal after around an hour of use. This may be tied to pressing the button, which forces the bud into your ear each time. I actually prefer pressing the stalk on the Air Pod due to this. Maybe it could be resolved by placing a hardware button on the side instead.

I’d struggle to call a winner between the Air Pod Pros and Elite 7 Pros here. Let’s call it a draw.

Sound quality (music):
I care greatly about the quality of the music that I listen to. I have a mid-high end audiophile setup at home, but prefer not to spend over the 200-250 mark on buds as they could be easily lost whilst out and about. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting these to sound as good as they do, very comparable to Air Pod Pros out of the box. This is then greatly assisted by the customisable equalizer, a feature really missing from Apple. The app is easy to use and configure, my only gripe is that the frequency range isn’t shown on the equalizer graph. Due to the nature of the fit of these in-ear buds, they can pump through a tremendous amount of bass; enough to give you fatigue quite quickly, but this is resolved by tweaking the equalizer, or saving custom profiles to switch between. You can tailor the sound profile to your own personal tastes, or change it depending on the genre you’re listening to.

A clear win for Elite 7 Pro.

Noise cancellation/hear-through:
This is where the Elite 7 Pro began to come undone for me. Both of these settings can be customised to your personal requirements, however neither seem to be as good as Apple in my opinion. The noise cancellation just doesn’t really work for me. Even when trying an appliance like a hair drier, it just isn’t fully blocked out. The hear-through option doesn’t sound as natural as it does through the Air Pod Pro, it feels like it amplifies background noise, as I assume as hearing aid would. This volume can be tweaked, but then this seems to block out some noises that you may want to hear, such as a car at distance.

Air Pod Pros win this category.

Call quality/microphone:
I found these were very reasonable to speak through. I use my phone frequently through the day and was happy with the quality I could hear, however as soon as I began taking calls outside, I received comments that there was too much background noise to hear me. During one call, I was told that I could hardly be heard due to wind. To be fair to Jabra here, I’ve had issues with Air Pod Pros doing too much noise cancellation when cars are driving past, cutting out my voice; but they have obviously gone too far in the opposite direction.

My belief is that this will likely be fixed in a firmware update when they’ve had enough data back from customers, but for now Air Pod Pros win this category.

Summary:
I am very satisfied with the customisability of the Elite 7 Pro through the Sound+ app. I’m hoping that I get used to my comfort issues over time and that Jabra continue to release firmware updates (I’ve already been through 3 or 4) frequently to address issues based on feedback they receive from customers. If you’re mostly interested in using buds for calls, or don’t want to mess around with customisations, pick up a pair of Air Pod Pros. If you want to tweak your music listening experience and want a secure fit, go for the Elite 7 Pro.

Good value ear buds
What I like about them : sound is good and you can tune it in the app – I like bass a lot and these have the punch for me they stand out aroun 20 30 Hz the most .
The battery life is good.
They fit my ears ok but sometimes don’t make a proper seal .
They have hear through mode I like it if your talking to someone or need to hear sound around you.
What I don’t like about them :
Cant use left earbud alone because the right one is the only one that connects with the phone .
Noise cancelling nearly makes no difference.
The original price of 160 pounds definitely not worth but got them on sale for 90 so I’d say that they are good for the buck on sale .
Some people might prefer:
They have buttons instead of touch sensors for controlling .

Great buy, must have!!!
Initially the bad reviews put me off. I am super happy I got them. The set up is super easy and app is just great. Noise cancellation works great and they fit perfectly in the ear. I am active mum of three kids, I love gadgets, I own seven different sets of earbuds (not cheap!!!) and I must say these are absolutely the best. Mint colour is just beautiful. The battery lasts forever and they charge super quick. The sound quality is brilliant. My teenage son is asking to get it for him (he is using apple). Will be definitely getting another set. Highly recommended if you on the hunt for perfect set!!!!!

Excellent functionality and sound
There’s lot to like about the Jabra Elite 85t earbuds – excellent battery life, a good fit (but they never feel 100% secure), charge quickly, impressive Active Noise Cancellation and Hear Through functionality, intuitive app, rock solid Bluetooth connection, excellent changeable touch controls & Google Assistant integration, small & solid case and a decent microphone.

Sound wise, they’re very impressive and a major step up from the underwhelming Jabra 75t. I have all my music ripped to FLAC files and I also subscribe to Amazon Music HD and the quality of sound from these earbuds is rich and full with everything sounding just as it should. Make sure you use the app to adjust the EQ settings – it does make all the difference.

They arrive with three different sized tips ensuring you get the right fit and a USB cable. Overall, recommended.

Great value ear buds that compete with the best.
These ear buds are great value for money and are up there with some of thr best of have tried.
I have owned samsung buds and live buds and own a pair of bose 700c and these come up there close to the bose.
They are light weight and feel very comfortable in the ear. I have worn these all day at work and never had any discomfort.
The rubber tip provides great noise cancellation on its own but combined with thr ANC feature means nearly all sounds are blocked out and you are submerged into your own little bubble.

The active pass through it another great feature meaning you can listen and be very aware of your surroundings perfect for running, cycling or the work place.

They sound great, could maybe do with some more base but this is personal choice. You have few preset eq settings but can fully cuetomise the eq for your tastes.

The battery life is superb, I have got 6 plus hours with anc or active pass through from these on a single charge and the case carries a few charges which is very convenient.

Only issue I have run into is with some connectivity breaks, this was fixed greatly with a firmware update but still happens every now and again so fingers crossed another update will sort this completely.

Overall great buds for their price and would highly recommend!

Very impressed. Great sound. Phone app a little over the top.
Very happy I got these. Much better than the cheaper non-brands I’ve purchased from Amazon. The sound is absolutely fantastic (I’m no audiophile though) and much better than anything I’ve used before, either wired or wireless. ANC works quite well. Its the first time I’ve come across this technology so I’ve got nothing to compare it to, but I can imagine this would be useful in a noisy cafe or getting rid of aircraft cabin noise.
The app that is recommended for use with the buds probably has a few too many options and is a little OTT. It allows configuration, equaliser control, a find your ear buds function, tests your audible range to “customise” the output to your hearing and also comes with white noise functionality. It’s pretty slick but considering I just want to listen to stuff and take calls, it’s a little much.
The fit is reasonable and comes with small, medium and large ear gels.. I’ve not tried it on a run, but fully expect it to be OK for that. Circuit training, jumping around, not so much.
Packaging was nice, but again, a bit over the top. The buds and charging case are probably about 5x3x1.5cm, and comes with a USB charging cable. The box it came in was the size of a thick novel. Totally unnecessary weight and excess materials.
Five stars minus one for the OTT app and packaging. Otherwise superb.
May update this review once I’ve used it for a while and seen what the battery life is like.

Great clarity
These earbuds have been brilliant, I got them as the ones I currently have are constantly falling out of my ears with the slightest movement, no good at all. These have 3 sizes of rubber to fit ears and I was lucky that the medium size ones that were on the buds when they came fit me lovely, no slipping at all and haven’t fallen out once so that is great.
The sound is crisp and clear and has enough bass for me, you can play with the equaliser settings on the brilliant companion app, there are presets or you can sort your own out.
The app is great, makes pairing them up and getting the setting right really easy, does a little hearing test to ensure the buds are set right for your ears and it really seems to have worked. They also have a hear through feature so you can listen to people around you while still on your music, this works really well and because you can hear yourself answering, you don’t shout like you do with headphone on normally, very useful.
They charge in the case and again the app is handy here as you can check the percentage of both the case and buds. They turn on as soon as you remove from the case and pairing is simple, just follow instructions in the app. The longest I have used them in one sitting so far was about 2 and a half hours, in this time they used 10% battery, that’s pretty good to be fair and the case had them back up to full charge in about 20 minutes, really good.
Basically, if you get these you won’t regret it, really good clear sound, a nice comfy secure fit and the best companion app I have used, highly recommended.

Brilliant foot commuters or light exercise
I bought these for the noise cancellation and in a word they cancel noise brilliantly.

I use them on a bus commute and also walking through a city centre, they block out a lot of noise. On a bus, even sitting at the back over the engine, with people talking etc the noise reduction makes it go away to such a low level that you can have music on low and still not hear much external noise.

You will still hear some noise, I can still hear a low bass rumble of the bus engine for example when on buses but only slightly.

If you want to hear for yourself just how well they do that in comparison to other brands equivalents you can buy on Amazon like Bose or Sony etc there is a YouTube channel that has a video showing the noise cancelling ability of these in various situations, a YouTube search for “DHRME anc sound samples” will find you that video, probably much better than just reading descriptions.

Sound wise they sound great, you can change the way they sound with the Jabra app that let’s you set up a graphic equaliser to make them sound how you want them to, or choose from some presets.

How they fit is something lots of reviews comment on. I haven’t had them fall out even when I had my head upside down while doing a repair on something but I don’t think I would trust them not to fall out while running or cycling. Some have done that and say they are fine but while I have never had them fall out even when I tried to make them fall out, they do still feel like they could fall out easily.

That perhaps sounds like a contradiction, but I can say they do stay in while walking, being on a bumpy bus ride or vigorously dancing about.

They feel well made and definitely feel like a premium set of earbuds, the charging case is surprisingly small but easy to fit in a pocket even with a phone in the same pocket so are easy to carry around.

The controls on the earbuds can be customised to what you prefer them to do such as swapping between noise cancelling on or off, playing a different track, etc and the case will charge by USB c lead or by wireless qi charging so that’s also a plus.

I’ve used these for about three hours non stop in one go with noise cancelling on and they didn’t get close to being at low battery level so battery life is good and they have a nice physical button on each bud not a touch sensitive sensor so you don’t accidentally set them doing something while putting them in your ears.

They also automatically pause music or videos when a bud is removed from an ear, although you can turn this feature off using the Jabra app.

Speaking of the app, its very useful so if you get these earbuds consider using the app too. Its free and allows a lot of customisation to the earbuds as well as allowing firmware updates, product registration (you get a two year warranty against water and dust if you register for it using the app) and of course the graphic equaliser.

It also tells you the level of charge in the case and in each earbud, so is a good thing to use. And if you want the noise cancelling but don’t want to watch a video or listen to music the app has soundscapes like a thunderstorm or white noise and a few others to listen to instead.

Sometimes the app doesn’t find the earbuds as soon as you put them in (the earbuds still work fine without it and your programmed button options and equaliser and noise cancelling still work) but if you want the app to find them quicker (for the soundscapes or to check battery levels for example) just turn your phones Bluetooth on and then open the app before putting the earbuds in.

Overall a very good set of earbuds that are great for commuting or being in noisy environments.

Edit: I bought the Comply brand tips for these and they make them fit much better. If you have a problem with them feeling loose these tips should help.

What the reviews don't mentio
I only received these yesterday, so I felt I had to comment, my one major issue is how much sound can be heard by others, when I am on the train all I hear is the hissing sound from someone elses earbuds, I can play “Name That Tune”

I originally purchased the new Sony earbuds, but sent them back as the sound leaked out at quite a low volume, could have had the wrong size buds in, but at 249 I wasn’t taking the chance.

I took the chance and ordered the Jabra 85T, and I have to mention that they were very comfortable out of the box, they felt very snug, but more importantly, at high volume (so loud I had to turn it down) my wife didn’t hear a thing, this isn’t part of any review that I have seen so thought I would let people know.

So far would recomend over the Sony and can connect to 2 devices

Brilliant true wireless earbuds
I bought these two months ago as my first pair of true wireless earbuds. Previously I was using a wired pair of Bose QuietComfort QC20 in ear noise cancelling buds and I thought they were excellent. The noise cancelling was very good. Well the Jabra 85t smash those on both noise cancelling and audio quality, really taking them to a new level.
With the maximum ANC selected, you really can feel very isolated and detached from your surroundings. While walking you cannot hear your feet and vehicle and other noises are very well suppressed. Surrounding speech is barely audible. Wind noise is likewise very suppressed, only being heard when it is unrealistically strong. High pitched noises like birdsong just break through. This is all so much better than the Bose managed.
One press of the left ear can enable HearThrough mode which makes conversation vey easy. This doesn’t interrupt music playing though.
The Jabra Sound+ App is excellent giving 5 levels of control over both the ANC and HearThrough modes, allowing you to select just how much ambient sound you want to hear. Sound+ also allows you to control how the left and right switches operate. You can define moments for different listening situations and store configurations for each of those. The degree of programmability is excellent.
I was concerned about how well these would be retained in ear but I needn’t have been. You have to select the correct sized tip but I do like the oval shapes – they feel much more natural. Once selected the correct ones just feel very positive. I have never had one fall out except once while taking a fleece off over my head while wearing the Jabra’s – stupid really. I don’t use them for jogging though.
The 85t’s give well over five hours of real life ANC listening and the charging case allows up to four charges before needing to be recharged, which can either be with USB-C or using wireless charging. Again excellent. They will turn themselves off when not in use which saves battery further.
I was also concerned how the bluetooth 5.1 would work on calls but again this seems to work really well. I haven’t had complaints about call quality.
Overall the Jabra 85t’s are a most impressive pair of true wireless buds and I would highly recommend them.

Excellent sound quality and great for fitness/yoga
Really love these new ear buds. I did extensive research for a versatile pair of ear buds and am very pleased with my choice. I have enjoyed them on a recent flight, providing great noise cancellation while allowing me to hear any announcements in the background. Audio quality is great, they are super comfy and battery life is great. It took me a couple of days to get the hang of how to sync them to multiple devices, but I have been able to successfully pair them with both my iPad and Samsung mobile phone. I use them to do livestream yoga and fitness classes, they stay in with lots of jumping, sweating and downward facing dogs! Also great for phone calls, the mic works really well. Highly recommended, good value for money!

Impressive earbuds for the price I paid
I have been looking for a good set of true wireless earbuds for quite a while, primarily to use at the gym, so important that they sound good, feel secure and have some level of water resistance. After lots of research, the Jabra Elite 85T were my choice. Highly rated on lots of review sites and at a really great price – I paid just over 144 for the Titanium Black variation. And so far I have been very pleased with them overall.

I should point out that these are my second set of Jabra Elite 85T earbuds. My first set presented several set up issues that I was unhappy about and suggested to me that they were faulty. Amazon return and refund the next day was quibble free and I ordered a new set. I’m pleased to say the new Jabra Elite 85Ts I ordered have been everything I had hoped for. Set up was seamless and trouble free, and the app is great, allowing lots of customisation.

So far I’ve used them in my garden a few times and also during a few sessions at the gym sessions. The sound quality has been great – maybe not the very best I’ve heard but clear and nicely balanced – and they feel secure. That said, my gym sessions don’t include vigorous exercises or running although I have no reason to think they wouldn’t be fine.

Active Noise Cancellation is easily activated although not as effective as some have reported. That said, there is a clear difference between ANC being on or offjust that I can still hear a degree of background noise that I expected not to.

I got a phone call while pottering about in the garden so a great opportunity to test out that feature of the earbuds. After a single press of the earbud I was able to answer my call and chat. Initially the other party said they couldn’t hear me very wellas if I was a long way off.although OK once I sat down. The earbuds adjusting to me receiving a call for the first time? Time will tell but not a good first experience.

Battery life was a factor in my choice and so far has been excellent. Certainly seems to be living up to the hype. The carry/charging case the earbuds fit snugly into is remarkably small and compact. Incredible feat of design to have developed something so tiny yet so effective. Not tried the wireless charging capability yet but another great feature.

So in conclusion, although it’s early days, I’ve been very pleased with the Jabra Elite 85T earbuds for the price I paid. Great sound quality, they feel secure and are suitable for use in the gym. The carry case is compact and will fit into the smallest pocket. Battery life is excellent and the Sound+ app presents a variety of useful features including customisation. As for ANC, good but not great, in my opinion, and the jury is out on using them for a phone call.

Quite good but not worth the money
These earbuds are quite good and design of them is OK comfortable and also you can change the silicone part as in packing came different size and you can choose whichever is suitable for you.
I like how long it keeps the battery and it does run up to 25hrs.
What I didn’t like is the sound quality , for the money it has when I reviewed them the sound should be very clear which is not that ,
Personaly think they are good earbuds but not for the money they are selling right now at over 210 it 8s big money and quality should be improved
