Jabra Elite Sport review

These aren't just the best wireless sports buds - they're the best wireless in-ears around right now

Fantastic connection ; Heartrate tracking genuinely useful ; Sound quality is decent

Battery life still only average ; Big buds won’t suit every ear

Superb sounding wireless in-ears with a fantastic connection and fitness boosting-features. The best around, for now

Jabra Elite Sport review

If you want more than just cord-free music, the Elite Sport deliver in a way other wireless earbuds don't.

Consistent audio quality ; Plenty of fit options ; Impressive sweat and waterproofing ; 3-year warranty

Takes perseverance to find a perfect fit ; Fear of loss never goes away

The Elite Sport are a culmination product, in some respects, as Jabra has evolved its sport earbuds into a solid product that fits well and leaves the cords behind, but you pay a price for the result. At $250, they are expensive, especially when...

Jabra Elite Sport wireless earbuds come with in-ear audio coaching with real-time feedback and has an advanced heart rate analysis with automatic fitness

Good audio performance ; Decent battery life ; Both earpods can work standalone ; Immersive real-time feedback ; Durable design ; Real-time coaching is effective

Earpods can fall out from case easily ; Bit Bulky ; Prolonged usage can be uncomfortable for ears ; Voice commands not always work ; No auto-pause when you remove earbuds ; No on-board storage

Consumer review (very.co.uk)

By far, the best ear buds I have owned!

So happy with this purchase. Ear buds are both comfortable and the sound quality is brilliant. Only giving 4 stars though as when listening to music with a bit more bass, it doesn't seem to give that oomfff others I have had on the last. Maybe I still...
