Jabra’s Elite 65T are true wireless earbuds that have outstanding Bluetooth connectivity and amazing sound quality. I have tested other earbuds like the Jaybird Runs and the Bose SoundSport Free however, the Jabras are the clear winner for comfort, sound quality, battery life and steady uninterrupted connection.

The Elite 65t are made of plastic. If you’re expecting a premium metal design, you’re going to have to keep waiting. The good news is that these are lightweight and don’t feel like they’re weighing down your ears. I was also really impressed with how well they fit. I did try these earbuds with both the included ear tips as well as with memory foam ones for isolation and fit purposes that I bought through Amazon. Both the silicone tips and the foam ones I purchased did a good enough job although the foam ones were the best for bass quality.

Whether I was walking around the office running outside or at the gym, I didn’t have them fall out of my ears once. The Jabra Elite 65t also have an IP55 rating, so you don’t have to worry about rain or spills destroying these earbuds at all. However, these aren’t made for swimming, so don’t attempt to swim around the local pool at all.

The Jabra Elite 65t look more discreet and a little more professional than the Airpods. The Jabra’s seem to be more and more popular everyday people see them in my ears. The battery life (5 hours) is fantastic and comes with 2 full charges (10 hours) as back up in the included case.

On either earbud is a button that lets you do certain things like change songs and adjust volume. What I like most about them is how much surface area they cover. The left earbud actually has two different buttons, each with a small ridge that lets you feel where to press. I’ve tried out other earbuds like the Jaybird Run’s and the Jaybirds didn’t impress me at all with their horrible connectivity from right to left ear.

You do not have this issue at all with the Jabra Elite 65T. Not once did I experience any dropouts from them.  Another huge plus is that once you pair them to your phone you almost never have to do so again. Every time you open the charging case and remove the earbuds, they automatically pair to your device before you even get them in your ears, which is impressive! The same is true when you put them back in the case. You don’t have to turn them off or do anything extra besides take them out of your ears and place them back in the case for them to automatically disconnect.

The microphone quality is outstanding and among the industry leaders out there. I have not ever had any issues with any Jabra product for microphone quality. Every person I have asked in the past, they always told me they can hear me really clear, like I was standing next to them.

Now for sound quality which is what we all want to know about. If you’re a basshead, the Elite 65t earbuds aren’t for you. They have the best sounding bass with the foam tips on but not outstanding bass like I want them to have. I can’t fully complain or knock them for this as they do have small drivers. Their mids are excellent as that is where the vocals lie. The highs are good but not super impressive.

The overall sound quality of the Jabra’s are great and I definitely recommend them for the gym, if you’re out riding your bike or simply out shopping. They stay in your ear comfortably and have good enough sound for everyday use. If you’re an expert high tech sound guru, then these aren’t made for you and you won’t like them.

On sale at BestBuy or Amazon, I definitely say buy them!
