Product Manuals

Q: Does anyone notice hissing sound on the left earbud when listening to music? Also fast ticking sound from right earbud when using Sport Life App (very noticeable with hear-through on). Using Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Issues not there with Backbeat Fit.

A: Thought I'd reply to this as I had this problem and found no useful answers anywhere online. I ended up phoning Jabra and the guy got me to manually reapply the firmware (even though I was on the latest). MAKE SURE you let it update COMPLETELY because the light on the case goes green for a period halfway through the update then continues updating (flashing purple). I have a theory that this may be what caused the trouble for me when I first updated the firmware immediately after purchase, I'm sure I would have removed the buds after the light first went green. My theory is that only the right earbud updated! Since re-applying, performance has been flawless! The process to do this is undocumented as far as I can tell but you need to: 1. Go to the Sound+ app 2. Go to the device section 3. Select Voice Guidance Language 4. Select your language then choose update

Q: Can you skip songs with them ? Instead of using the phone

A: Yes, you can. Press and hold the volume up button and you can skip a track. Press and hold the volume down button and you repeat/play previous song. I have an iPhone so I am not sure if it's the same with other phones. Hope this helps.

Q: Do you have to use both buds for them to work?

A: No, you can use just the right if you want (I use just 1 for cycling). You lose the left side controls (skip, volume) but you keep the voice control which you can use to skip (or change volume).

Q: Are these waterproof?

A: According to their website yes. http://blog.jabra.com/waterproof-or-water-resistant-whats-behind-an-ip-rating/?_ga=1.237520067.250089688.1480127151 The headphones have an IP67 rating which means that they can be submerged in up to a meter of water for 30 minutes.

Q: What is the battery life on these?

A: 3hr claim on each charge. The case holds 2 extra charges. I have only used then for 2.5hrs consecutively before I removed them to do other things. Never had a low batter warning.

Q: Can you where them on an airplane the entire flght? DO they block out the airplane noise?

A: If you use the noise blocking tips provided, yes. Note, you'll have to follow regulations for turning off equipment during takeoff and landing.

Q: Can you answer your phone while using these? I currently have the Plantronics Voyager Legend wireless headset for phone calls - it specifically asks if you want to answer or ignore and I use it for call commands for hands free usage to make calls.

A: Yes, if you're listening to music or on a call, it will alert you you have an incoming call and ask you to say "Answer" or "Ignore"

Q: Do they have good base?

A: Bass response is the Achilles heel of these buds. They sound about like the standard earbuds that come (for free) with an iPod. I use the Jabra buds with my iPhone 6s and they sound very thin and tinny. And yes, I've tried every combination of foam tip and ear gel they have and made sure they are properly fitted. If you turn on the bass boost of your device, that helps, but even with that they don't sound great - just adequate. If you are hung up on the "truly wireless" thing, then maybe these are for you, but the redesigned Bose SoundSport earbuds sound much better - and for $100 less. Just make sure they were made after 8/1/16. All you have is one wire that connects the two buds.

AMAZING EARBUDS!
The Jabra - Elite Sport True Wireless Earbud Headphones are legit. I have worked out with these and have passed my test of sweat, lifting weights and running. They connect flawlessly with my Android phone and fit in my ear perfectly. The sound is amazing for being this little and get pretty loud. You do not need anything louder, unless you want hearing loss (and this is coming from a bass head). The Heart Rate monitor is fairly spot on and within a couple beats of my Fitbit Ionic Watch. The charging case is solid and just feels like quality. The Jabra app is pretty nice too, but they do need to add weightlifting as an exercise. I always buy the super cheap earbuds to workout in because they always get ruined by sweat or wires pulled by the weights and go through 4 to 5 pairs a year. I truly love these earbuds and having zero wires is a huge plus. The listed price was a little high, but on Cyber Monday the price was unbeatable. I invested in a kickstarter company (Kanoa) that offered a similar product but went belly up and lost my money...should have just waited for a proven company to come out with Truly Wireless Earbuds and Jabra is it!

Sweet Sweet Buds for Running!
After using about 4 different Motorolas, a couple of LG Tones I was about to give up on wireless headphones for running. They ALL started out fine enough but within 3-6 months, they would fail one way or another. Wouldn’t power on, couldn’t raise or lower volume, wouldn’t charge, etc. I ended up buying a cheap-o pair from the big A and was surprised that they worked okay for the time I had them but if my past experience was any indication, they probably would have been dying any day now. I got the jump on that when I saw these on sale for Black Friday at a great price. ($149). They had great reviews and most said they were great for running and were sweatproof. I have been using for a few weeks and they are awesome, They sound great and fit great. With 3 separate wing options and 6 different earbud options, it only took about 3 runs before I was able to determine which fit combination was right for me. I love these. If they fail in the future like all the others, I will be sure to update this review. But for now, for the price and the value, I have to give it 5 stars. I didnt even mention the charging case! How cool is this thing? I charged the case once and in the weeks since, it has kep my buds charged just by placing them back in the case. SO cool. It also has a heart rate monitor but I wont need this feature as the running watches I use already have that feature. Highly recommend.

Excellent work out buds
To be honest, these are my second pair of Jabra Elite Sport ear buds because my first pair, which were about 4 years years old, finally died on me. I'm expecting the new pair to last about the same amount of time. I've used my elite sport almost religiously, going to the gym 4 days out of the week and they've held up like a champ. When my elite sport went out, I thought it would be a good time to upgrade to the Active 65T. The 65t does have better sound quality, fit, and hear through quality, but it doesn't have the same features as the Elite. What I loved about the Elite was that I could track a run on my GPS and give me way more stats on my workout when compared to the Active 65t. Also the Elite's are waterproof while the Active is only water resistant. Active can not / should not be submerged in water but the Elite can for a certain amount of time. The sound quality on the Elite's are still very good when you mess with the EQ to reach your desired listening preferences, but not as good as the Active 65t. In all, I still pick the Elite for workouts but use the active for less intense activities. Also love the fact that th Elite has a GPS tracker so you can find individual ear buds if one goes missing.
