Weak volume level but clear microphone
I really wanted to like these headphones. When you tack on the name Elite you think top of the line product. I'm not saying these are bad, but they weren't elite in my opinion. The one thing that was top notch for these is the microphone during calls. I have had plenty of wireless headphones and they range from muffled to too much background noise. However, these really did a great job during calls with clarity and preventing background noise. However, the biggest problem I have with them is their volume. It is so low that even though my friends could hear me better on a call, I had a hard time hearing them. At first I thought maybe it was my phone being the problem, but with everything maxed out it just wasn't loud enough. I like headphones to be loud enough that I should need to use the volume to keep them from being too loud. I even downloaded the app to see if I could enable an advanced setting or something. Upon first power on, there is a nice voice prompt to help you through Bluetooth pairing. Tones are given with volume max and power down, with some voice assistance options when pressing the center button on the microphone. Besides the volume level, audio sounds clear, but missing crisp highs and deep lows. Maybe it was just the volume level, but some deep bass was missing all together. As for the app, the packaging barely mentions it and nothing in the quick guide. A quick search in Google Play for Jabra will return with Jabra Sound+, however, you also need a separate application called Jabra Services when you go to run it. Once installed you can connect to the headphones and update them to their latest firmware. Options in the app are basic, with a simple EQ, some call audio settings and minor choices on audio prompts. The assistance does allow for caller ID to be read in a voice when you receive a call. However, the app didn't help increase the volume level as I had hoped. Plus the Jabra Services application is always running in the background so it can read the caller ID. As for design, the around the neck band is soft rubber and surprisingly did not grab the small hairs like some others brands have. It rests lightly around the neck and keeps in place pretty well. When not in use the headphones connect magnetically and turn off to conserve power. They instantly turn back on, connect and with the press of the center button you can get right back to what you were doing. The fit of the ear buds are pretty comfortable, required a little twist to lock in and make a seal, but with the volume level really felt like they needed to be further in the ear. For battery life I was getting over 7.5 hours of straight Bluetooth audio. Of course it can last longer with intermittent use, such as just for answering calls. As for charging I was unable to get them to charge using any USB port on my laptop. I asked the question, and I see others are able to use their PC, I can charge other devices with the same PC, so I have no idea what the issue is. If I used a phone charger they were able to get a full charge in about 2 hours. If these were a bit louder in volume levels I might consider them a higher rating, but when I have cheaper headsets that can do everything else pretty much the same with better audio, I can't recommend these.

Great Phone Tool
If you spend a lot of time on your phone, these are the earbuds for you. I have not used any earbuds or headphones that match the outstanding performance that these Jabras delivered. They provide fantastic sound quality for those on both ends of the conversation. The controls on the device worked as intended without any glitchiness that sometimes accompanies controls that are asked to provide multiple functions. There are three “pods” on the cable that connects the earbuds; one that is positioned close to your mouth which contains the microphones (yes, two), and the mute button/voice assistant call button, and two larger ones that I suspect contain the batteries. One of these larger pods also contains the charging port (micro USB) and three function buttons, two which are flat and the center one which is raised. One of my gripes (a small one) about this device lies with this pod. The little rubber cover for the charging port sits proud of the surface and my fingers confuse it for the raised center button. I would have preferred the charging port be on the other pod which has no surface features whatsoever. The earbuds contain magnets on their backsides which help in cable management when the buds are not in your ears, but they also serve some functionality by pausing music or ending phone calls. This is handy and saves a step when you remove the earbuds to have a conversation with someone in your presence. The Elite 45e comes with three sets of separate ear gels and ear wings to allow you to customize the fit to your ears. Some competitors have the gel and the wing combined into one unit for each bud thus limiting fit possibilities. The device comes with rudimentary printed instructions and a more comprehensive 22 “page” manual in the phone app. The app gives you a variety of settings to allow you to customize the sound quality and experience in more ways than just an equalizer (which is also present). You can turn on and off audio prompts, Caller ID announcements, and hearing your own voice in the headset while on calls. You can also set different equalization curves for three different scenarios that Jabra refers to as standard use, commute and focus. Even though the equalizer has only five bands, they provide more than enough customization to the sound quality. “Bass heads” will probably be let down by the lack of really deep bass response, but most users will be satisfied in my opinion. I think Jabra is known more for phone-use headsets in business settings rather than audiophile products, but I have to say that I was rather impressed with the musical reproduction of the Elite 45e. Also provided are “ocean waves” and “pink noise” settings for those times when you want to mask outside distractions. While audio announcements give you only high, medium and low values for battery life, the phone app has a percentage indicator for remaining power of the headset. The iPhone app works great and has a bunch of settings, but I am a little disappointed that there is no app for my Mac as I do like to use headsets for music on my laptop. Bluetooth pairing was quick and easy on both my phone and laptop, however Bluetooth range was limited and noticeably shorter than other Bluetooth devices I use with my phone. Voice prompts are clear and easy to understand which makes them usable and helpful. All-in-all I am impressed with the Jabra Elite 45e and think it is a worthy competitor in a crowded market and is worth the price based on performance as both a business tool and as an entertainment accessory. If I could award stars in 1/2 steps, I would probably give it 4.5 stars for the Bluetooth range and charging port placement, but as these are both rather minor issues, five it is.
