Released in September 2022, these earbuds give you everything you could want. Firstly, they’re equipped with high-class Hybrid ANC technology that combines inward and outward mics to create a more reliable noise-isolating environment that should cover a wide range of sounds.
Like most, the ANC works with a “transparent” mode; here, it’s dubbed HearThrough. Instead of blocking out outside noises, the feature lets them in so you can hear what’s going on around you without removing your earbuds.
So far, so good. What about sound quality, you may be asking yourself now. Well, those of you who are all about that bass (no pun intended) might not like how these sound out of the box. Then again, people who aren’t that much into hip-hop might find them just ideal for their price range. Podcasts should also sound great on these earbuds. The customizable EQ is an additional perk.
As for their battery life, the Jabra Elite 5 should be able to last about seven hours of playtime on a single charge. If you store them in your charging case between listening sessions, you can squeeze in a total playtime of up to 28 hours.
