    Truly waterproof but music quality blows

    Pros: These are totally waterproof, extremely easy to connect via bluetooth, never disconnect randomly and the case charges the buds. Cons: Calls sound muffled. People can hear you but still not as clear as non waterproof. I use wireless earbuds solely for music and its primarily live music- but I need bass as well. The music quality on these Jabras is absolutely horrendous. If you want bass and excellent sound quality go with Beats. Sennheiser is the only maker of wireless earbuds that offer better sound quality than beats; however they are not loud enough for me and continuously disconnect. They also stopped working within 2 weeks of buying/using daily. I will purchase those again if/when Sennheiser actually fixes all their issues. The Jabras i would only suggest if you work in the rain or are out in the water constantly and use for calls primarily. Theyre the only truly waterproof wireless earbuds I have found (thus 3 stars). I have tried most of the high end pairs of wireless earbuds and nothing beats BEATS. Still. Excellent customer service as always at BB in Mansfield Texas. Fox is wonderful!

    I have no idea how these have such a high rating. The 75t Active were mediocre and still leagues better than these poorly designed earbuds. Pros- The sound and build quality are good. Cons- Everything else -ANC is terrible -Both earbuds are connected instead of just the right one linking. Which means you can no longer just pop out the left one and the music keeps playing. Now its a process to go one bud and its not uninterruptible like it used to be. -The case design is just bad (flat resting surface is the top of the case because the charging port is on the bottom, the earbuds dont fit as well as other earbuds no matter which size you use).

      Hello GBPackfan - Thank you for taking the time to write 4-star review. We are sorry to learn that you are having trouble with the Active Noise Cancellation as well as the fit of your Elite 8 Active. With some trial and error, most users are able to find a secure and comfortable fit of the earbuds. In the meantime, if you have not already, we hope that you will consider mixing and matching ear gel sizes. This may help as no two ears are exactly alike. The earbuds will also need to be twisted into the ear canals to create a proper seal. We want to ensure that you are having the best experience possible with your Elite 8 Active. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any additional questions or concerns: https://bit.ly/3Lr6zJw. Jabra
