If you recall, the Jabra earbuds were cheaper during Prime Day 2024. They aren’t exclusively discounted at Amazon, either. For one thing, Best Buy has the same markdown. Even so, their supreme durability and IP68 rating make them a fantastic option for serious athletes and everyone who values toughness in earbuds. The Elite 8 Active have been through serious testing. Supposedly, they offer military-grade toughness, which sounds like a pretty good promise even if a bit of a stretch. After all, the significantly more expensive Sennheiser MOMENTUM Sport, one of the best workout earbuds, have lower dust and water resistance.
Durability is important, but so is noise cancellation and sound quality. Well, the Elite 8 Active handle those fronts pretty well. They have a Hybrid ANC technology with HearThrough, allowing you to pick when and how to engage with outside distractions.
Couple that with a fantastic frequency response that makes most music genres sound as intended, and there you have a winner. Let’s not forget that they have a lightweight design, so they shouldn’t cause ear fatigue.
Plus, you get to enjoy your favorite music for up to eight hours per charge or 32 hours if you take breaks (and store them in their charging case while doing so). Those numbers go all the way up to 56 hours of playtime with no ANC, too.
Certainly not as popular as the AirPods Pro 2, these high-end wireless earbuds from Jabra are still a great choice for most users. If you’re looking for toughness, quality audio, and great noise cancelling capabilities for about $150, the Elite 8 Active shouldn’t disappoint you.
