Ironically I just lost my Jabra Elite75t and went to use the location/tracking feature only for it to be 4 months old and said it was in a city 5 hours away... when I had it that morning and it was somewhere in the vehicle. Yikes
I vouched to never buy such dumb software implementation like this... and voila, they validated my thought process
The Gen 2 of the Elite 10 and Elite 8 Active are their last products! More info here: https://youtu.be/RPmglNYR27Q?si=dlkE36xxQ9f3hr5g

Hi!
How're you all thinking surrounding this? I see there's some available, but I feel like it's not a great idea. On the other hand, there's not really that many appealing other headphones...
Sad news as the elite line has always been a great alternatives to Apple buds and headphones
I remember when I first got ahold a pair of 65t actives and was just bamboozled by how much better they were then everything back then ,
Then the 75t actives rolled out and then I thought I found the ultimate headphones . Was literally on cloud 9.
Never really tried the 85ts cause of all the reviews , the apparent bulkiness and the 75ts just felt timeless . Nonetheless, I thought this was simply personal preference, and or maybe just an anomaly ( in my head it couldn’t be possible that Jabra put out their next line and it turned out to be a step backward !?!)
But then the next way of randomly numbered headphones came out and
It just didn’t make sense , how the masters of sound just randomly transferred to any other random company more focused on pumping out random series in order to pump out more sales .
Why the hell did the GOATs start trending backwards 🥲?
Day 1 of Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2
I'm back Jabra! Absolutely love these earbuds!
I used to have a pair of elite active 75t (which I loved) I then had WF-1000XM4s. They, of course, had the battery drain issue and then my experience with their poor customer service have completely put me off Sony.
I think these are a huge upgrade. First off, the call quality is very good! I always found with the WF-1000XM4 that my close ones would complain that it was muffled and they couldn't hear me, but with these apparently it sounds as good as just calling regularly. Secondly, I think the noise cancelling is actually very good. It's not perfect but very good. And the sound quality I've found is a massive step up. The music is just clearer than the XM4. I'm a very happy bunny.
Slight concern was the battery, straight out the box they seemed like they were draining quickly (eek) but after a 2.5 hour charge they've been back up and running and haven't lost much charge at all.
Love it, love them, thank you Jabra for returning my faith in earbuds!
I have a pair of Elite Active 4’s that I paid about £40 for. Their amazon page is now impossible to navigate. So many earburds with or without active in the title, loads of numbers. Most are £150 and above. No listings on other websites like Argos, John Lewis, etc. Annoyed I’ll have to find an alternative brand 😞
I've been researching to buy a good pair of earbuds for running. I read a nice review about the Elite 8 Active Gen 2 here, but after not finding them anywhere, I read in this sub that Jabra is no longer making them.
What's the best alternative from Jabra?
Thanks!
I can not find it them. Not even in eBay. Are they going to be available again?
Hey everyone,
I'm goingto buy Jabra Elite 10 tomorrow, am I going to regret it OR best choice of my life?
Saw some really good reviews, but some negative comments aswell.
What do you pros think?
According to a press release (just after announcing the Elite 10 Gen2 ...) they will not release any more products for the Elite and Talk product lines.
My question:
I'm looking for new earbuds/in-ears, because my current ones (Jabra Elite Active 65t) have lasted over 7 years and the battery life is now really poor. I also recently tried my girlfriend's AirPods Pro and was amazed by how much audio quality has improved.
Because of the comfort and the fact that they’ve lasted so long, I have a strong preference for the Jabra brand. Unfortunately, as most of you probably know, Jabra has stopped producing in-ears. A real shame.
Especially now that I’ve set my eyes on the Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2 – these are supposedly spectacularly good in-ears, but they haven’t been included in recent Tweakers best-buy lists because they’re no longer in production.
I can now buy a brand-new pair from a private seller who still has a new boxed set for €260. He doesn’t have an invoice (apparently he got them through a lottery or something), but he has shown that they are still unregistered for warranty. The price seems reasonable to me, given the original retail price (€279) and current unavailability (prices on Amazon and similar sites are above €330).
I'm tempted to buy them… but I’m still having last-minute doubts.
Will they still be fully covered under warranty by Jabra, even though I won’t have a receipt and Jabra has stopped production?
Is it even a good idea to buy these earbuds for that very reason?
Thanks for your advice!
how stupid can a company be?They were the best earbuds ive ever had but sadly i lost them..
This sounds like a crazy claim for some people but just bear with me a little.
I have been used wireless earbuds since the very first Galaxy Buds which were released in 2019.. So it's been 5 years already and I went on and tried the following since:
Galaxy Buds
AirPods Pro Gen 1
Galaxy Buds2
Galaxy Buds2 Pro
Beats Fit Pro
AirPods Pro Gen 2
So I went I kept on going between Samsung and Apple which were absolutely fine honestly.. I still use my AirPods with Apple products and Beats Fit while working out... But the Elite 10s comfort level is truly amazing, I just tuned the equalizer a bit and the ANC is not mindblowing but very much acceptable.. I am not an audiophile but I use my earbuds all day long while working, walking, calling, podcasts, literally everywhere and all day.
For me the whole idea is about the comfort which I really did suffer from with most of these earbuds, ear fatigue was an issue with most of them and the ones which did not give me ear fatigue had ridiculous fit problems like the Galaxy Buds2 they literally fell off every 5 minutes..
Jabra has been doing this for too long and they are still a pioneer in this field, I have not experienced multipoint in earbuds (tried it with my WH1000XM4 which were also super uncomfortable for me) and it's a game changer.. Apple and Samsung have their multi device features exclusively for their ecosystems while companies like Jabra really do have a better implementation to be honest.. Especially for people that like to use devices from different manufacturers not just a single ecosystem.
Summary what I like about Elite 10s:
Very comfortable (can be worn easily for many hours, most important part for me)
Great sound quality
Good ANC/Hearthrough
Multipoint
Creative clickable touch controls (you can literally do anything with them)
Great app (many customizations can be done)
All basics covered such as reasonable battery life & wireless charging case
My only gripe is that I don't think the mic quality is the best out there... Some people complained that my voice does sound weird.
Keep it going Jabra!
Dear Jabra Team,
I’ve been a long-time Jabra earbuds user—mostly for running, gym sessions, and even the sauna. I use them almost daily, and no other earbuds I’ve tried come close to the overall balance Jabra offers.
Your sports line, especially the Elite Active 8 and 10 series nailed everything that matters for active users:
IPX5 durability for sweat and rain Tactile buttons instead of unreliable gestures Comfortable fit for long sessions Excellent battery life Customizable button functions and EQ Superb hear-though and ANC Easy to use Excellent audio!
I just sourced a replacement pair of Elite 8 Actives after my old ones finally gave out after almost three years of heavy often sweaty, wet and humid use. Frankly, I was more than satisfied—they lasted through running, the gym, and sauna conditions that would destroy most other headphones. If a pair survives two years of that kind of abuse, that’s a success in my book.
But it’s disappointing that Jabra no longer offers true sports-focused earbuds. The current product line leans heavily toward office and gaming, with features I don’t need at a price I can’t justify. Honestly, if you just kept producing the Elite Active 8 or 10s, myself and many others would gladly keep coming back. They were simply awesome.
Please reconsider and bring back sport earbuds.There’s a loyal community of runners, athletes, and active users who don’t just want them... we rely on them.
Hey folks, The Jabra line was discontinued recently, so I'm looking to move on. I had the Elite 8 Active and loved the fit, ANC, and durability, but now I want something non-Jabra (and no Apple) that’s similar for lab work—comfy, secure, good ANC, sweat‑proof, and compatible with iPhone. Budget is $130 max.
