My Verdict

I have tried out Jabra's earlier sports models, the Jabra Sport, which I didn't like using, as I personally felt that the wire connecting the left and right earphones together was quite annoying. My honest opinion on the Jabra Sport was that it was really fragile and the battery cover was flimsy. My friends who had similar earphones, had them replace a couple of times previously within the same warranty period. To me, It wasn't that fantastic initially and that the earphones always slipped out during exertion, especially when running, as the cables will tend to be pulled to one side when running.

Jabra Elite Sports Fits Perfectly & Comfortably

It all boils down to individual preference, and some of you guys out there might prefer a pair of earphones which have the wires attached to it. Therefore, Jabra has a few models that cater to people who love this design - Jabra Pulse, Jabra Sport Coach & the Jabra Sport Pace

However, thanks to the advancements in technology and the perseverance and also Jabra's motto towards ensuring that their customers are well catered for. The Jabra Sport has evolved into the Jabra Elite Sport.

Every brand has to make mistakes before achieving what they set out to seek, and I felt that Jabra has really done its part by gathering feedback from consumers so that they could further improve their product. I felt that they have really done well in this area, and has risen to be one of the most reliable and trustworthy brands that most of us would look out for.

Based on personal experience, I would definitely recommend a more comfortable pair of streamlined earphones, like the Jabra Elite Sport. As it not only delivers superior sound for calls and music, but it also provides us with the comfortability we need to run without being tangled up by wires with every movement at least.

Jabra Elite Sport wireless earphones feature superior sound quality for music and calls, and advanced wireless connectivity to ensure true performance.
