Great sound and color too. Would buy again.aw awasome for gym.

Great sound hard to change cushion bud. But am enjoying

They work great real good purchase very pleased!!!!!

Great sound at an affordable price. Highly recommended

I wanted to like these. Coming from the Jabra Elite 75T’s, the elite 8 active gen 2 pales in comparison. Even after setting the eq, the highs were shrill, the mid clarity was poor, and with being a new product the app reset my controls each time. The bass was deep but yeah. If you have bass heavy music (rap/hip hop, not metal or others), you’d be fine. Jabra was my favorite brand all around. I may try the elite 10’s but it’s truly disappointing that audio of all things is lacking in their successor products. I expect more for a premium pricing.

Bought these to add a newer pair of in ear headphones, i really enjoy the sound as well the "hear through" feature, without taking them out. I also love the cable it comes with, i can play my games and hear everything and not have to worry about microphone interference via the controller. Great buy for the sale price!

Sounds great, wish that’s Best Buy did price match with the manufacturer

Excellent and durable using them at the gym during workouts

My only regret is these are last consumer earbuds Jabra will make. You may find other earbuds that each do something slightly better, but there are NO other earbuds that do everything so well.

One of the best headphones around! Used while doing construction.

These headphones are pretty interesting, the more I use them the more I like them but there are some issues with them. First, the setup wasn’t very straight forward, as most setups with these types of ear-piece headphones. The instructions on the box give you some visualizations for setup and how to use, but no where did it say I needed to press both buttons on each ear piece to put it in pairing mode. I wasn’t able to do anything with the app until I paired it with my phone. I’m also still not quite sure what the button on the case does, except switch between Bluetooth and aux for the headphones. Very simple information like this should be easy to find in plain sight. After I got these paired with my phone and downloaded the Jabra app (Sound+), I started checking out the app options. It’s a clean dashboard where you can easily control your headphones. It shows you the 3 different battery levels (each ear piece and the case), and gives you options such as presets, sound modes, custom equalizer, and additional settings. To begin, I’ll say the quality of audio does sound pretty good for such a small device. I decided to use “Energize” preset, enabling Doby Spatial Sound, and have the Active Noise Cancellation on (ANC). I get a full range of sound with plenty of volume when listening to my videos or music. Even the bass seems impressive, at least on this preset. ANC definitely works well, I’m actually quite impressed with it and I’ve owned several different ANC headphones. I also like the HearThrough option, which almost acts as kind of mild hearing aid, where it lets sounds passthrough and even turns it up, so you can wear these throughout the day. It lets you adjust how much “HearThrough”, basically your environment, you want to be allowed through, otherwise the earpieces will naturally block out most of the sound. I actually kind of like that. You can also wear the headphones just to block out environmental noise with ANC on and no music, so you if you are in public and don’t want all that noise, just pop these in. You can toggle the sound mode from the App or by selecting the button on the left ear piece. I workout a few times a week, and this is when I use them most. They actually stay put fairly well, I’ve had no issues with them falling out which is impressive. I did of course replace the rubber piece with the size that fits my ear, but since then they stay solid in my ear for the most part. I also really like the option of having the aux be used for devices that you may not want to try and fumble through by setting up Bluetooth. Its actually a great option, and it suggest places like connecting your headset to gym equipment while still being wireless, props to them for doing this. The case is nice, has a magnet pull on the earpieces when setting them in, and is compact. The aux cable lets you connect to an aux port or usb c port, I’ve tried both. Not a great score card so far, it’s worked 1/3 times as expected for me. First time I connected via aux to usb c and the right ear piece had connection issues unless I held the ear piece in with my finger. The ear piece was in just as well as the other one and I had no issues with a different device with aux. The usb c to usb c connection would keep switching the case off aux mode and go back to Bluetooth mode when connected to my ipad. I constantly had to revert it back to aux mode, which was quite annoying so hopefully that can be fixed. Another thing I’ve noticed, is when taking calls, I can hear just fine but the person on the other line doesn’t hear me so well at times. I’ve had this reported both times I used it for phone calls. Tldr; In a nutshell, these headphones have good sound quality with nice options. Battery life seems pretty good, and they don’t fall out easily, at least for me. The aux option is great for hooking devices on the fly, and the ANC does well but seems to have a couple of bugs. The ear pieces and case are stated to be tough as in waterproof, dustproof, and durability. There is also an option on the app where you can find the last location of your headphones on a map based on where your phone connected to them last, in case you lose them. HearThrough is a great option to keep these in even when you’re not listening to music. On the flip side, the instructions are kind of lacking, mic quality needs to be better, and aux option is still out for debate. I’m sure a firmware upgrade could fix some of these issues. You’ll also need to memorize how to use the buttons on each ear piece if you want to maximize its capabilities, since there are several options per earpiece per scenario. Each ear piece button has different functionality.

Love it, best for work out with deep bass and you can adjust equalizer however you want, definitely recommend it,

Works good I haven’t had not problems with it Recommend

Was a little skeptical of the Jabra brand, as I had no previous experience with the brand. But I soon learned they have a very good product. A great product, as a matter fact. I just bought these today and was so impressed with them I had to post a review. Buy these! You will not be disappointed.

Theese are the best earbuds I've owned. I prefer them to the sony xm4 and 5s as well as the some of the other earbuds in their class I've tried out. The rubber feels really good as well. Its unfortunate jabra is getting out of making headphones.

Saw the announcement Jabra was getting out of consumer audio and decided to replace my gen 1 pair even though they were still hanging on. Haven’t noticed too many differences but that’s more of a testament to their consistent quality.

Had them for almost a year now amd still going strong.

Good product, but ran into an issue where static noise would show up and disappear all at once during quiet parts of the songs I was listening to. The static noise was fairly apparent, but likely not as noticeable to typical consumers. It's likely this was a one off, but it could be a software issue as well. Again, good product, but I expected better for the price tag.

The Jabra Elite 8 Active Gen 2 earbuds are a complete game changer! These great fitting, great sounding earbuds are now matched with a wireless receiver that can plug in to any 3.5mm jack and transmit audio to the earbuds! Out of the box, setup is super easy. You will need to take the earbuds out of the case and remove small plastic covers over the charging ports on the buds and put them back into the case. The case and buds should have a charge but I just went ahead and plugged it in and charged it up first. The box also includes the charging/connecting cable and 2 extra sizes of bud ear inserts. You will need to download the jabra sound+ app in order to connect your phone to the earbuds. The app itself is very useful and comes with a battery indicator, an equalizer with multiple sound presets, and a soundscape player that plays different enviromental sounds to help with sleeping or relaxation. It works really well! The earbuds have active noise cancelling, but you can also turn on hearthrough that uses the buds microphones to allow you to still hear the enviroment around you or people talking. It works probably the best of any headphones or earbuds I have used with that feature. The main feature of these earbuds is the smart stream case that allows you to plug the case into any 3.5mm audio jack and transmit audio wirelessly to your earbuds. This technology is fantastic, especially at the gym if you want to connect into the machines audio and watch the tvs or listen to the gym radio. Even on airplanes, plug the case into the headphone port and listen wirelessly to all of your in flight entertainment. It really is awesome to be able to use these with really anything, like rear seat audio in a car as well, and many many other options. The fitment of the earbuds is amazing and the inserts that came on it in the case fit excellent in my ear. I can shake and jolt my head around and can not get these buds to move. Each bud has a button on it that will do certain things when pressed and how long you press it. Holding the button on the right bud will turn the volume up and on the left will turn the volume down. Pressing the right button will pause the music and the left button will change between noise cancelling and hearthrough. There are instructions with more tap commands. The sound quality of these earbuds is the best i've ever heard in an earbud and the sound is truly amazing. With the equalizer in the app as well it really lets you set the sound the way you want too. Overall loudness of the earbuds is really loud. Depending on the source and the content, it can be too loud about 3/4 from max. Everyone is different, but these buds do not max out early where you are left wanting more. The bass level is also adjustable on the equalizer and I tend to like a lot of bass in my music and these buds bass productions is great! On a frequency test, the buds can definitively produce sub bass down to around 25hz which is crazy for these little buds! On top of everything, these earbuds boast active wear and are sweat and waterproof! I wouldn't take them in a pool, but using them in the rain won't destroy them. Overall, these earbuds are a must have! Great sound, great portability and battery life, great fitment. Absolutely awesome!

Noise canceling could be stronger, but overall a good quality sound and stays in place great. I use it for my daily jogs and don't have any issues.
