Jabra Elite Sport Truly Wireless Earphone - REVIEW

2017-01-25
Oh hey everyone Jimmy would Jim's review room truly wireless earphones are picking up traction we've seen smaller independent companies bringing these to market and now big-box names like Samsung Apple and Motorola are bringing their own versions with their special features beyond and audio experience drebber was very nice enough to send two of these to me not sure what to set me to but I'm going to give one of them away on this channel so be sure to subscribe if you haven't already these retail for $249 at the time this video they can be on the upper end in regards to pricing but as always I'll place my link in the video description below click on my links and they'll give you the most updated prices in real time so without further ado my channels here to help you make a purchase decision welcome everyone to another review go over the physical features first these are completely made of plastic yes is still very durable the driver at least our ip67 certified meeting their dust tight and not only splash proof when you can submerge these underwater up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes I have poured water all over these things and they're still functioning perfectly fine now when you look at the competition the job boards here keep ready - and the motorola Berber ones plus are the only ones with the ip67 certification while others are there just splash proof or offers no protection whatsoever now moving on to the Elise doesn't use touch sensitivity which would make the experience that much smoother but Jabra is using a physical button ears to adjust volume and to access other features which I'll go over shortly the buns are responsive but a slight push into the ear is needed each time now let's take a look at the left ear bud plus and minus are there to adjust volume depending on your music app a long tap will either skip a song for about 15 seconds ahead or so and for some other F it was skipped to the next song altogether and they're right here but the bottom button is used to turn on and pair the earphones and with that same button with a double tap you can turn on the microphone so you can hear your environment perfect for time you don't need passive noise isolation while running and you want to hear your surroundings for safety purposes now the very top button opens up your Jabra sport app and a very long press will start a workout activity again which I'll get into detail right after I talk about comfort now in the box you get small medium and large tips and wings first testing the silicone need rubber elites do stay in the air during my entire run they're not heavy at all and at worst case scenario for me the upper part of the earphones ever so slightly pulled away from my ears but the earphones never falls out in the retail packaging your expanding foam ear tips they do increase the amount of noise isolation and more importantly they say more secure or snug than my ear versus the silicone you can tell a difference by using one over the other but if you want that ultimate fit the best in noise isolation looking for today's video sponsor it's from comply foam now them personally using their foam ear tips on my Jay bird freedoms and x3 you see me wear them in those reviews but I have worn them here with the job release and seriously one they provide the best foam expansion to fit into my ear canals number two they do help with keeping the earphones in while running here and three they do block out the most noise from my experience now these are the truly wireless model but they do make a variety of phone ear tips so check them out and get they make one for your earphones already I place their link in the video description below they take you to their website or visit them directly at comply foam comm now jumping on through battery life on this thing here it's ready to up to three hours of continuous music playing with or without the health tracking that's per driver there with my personal testing I'm getting about two and a half hours to two hours and 45 minutes worth of playback and that's with me testing these while running that's with the heart rate tracking of heart rate sensors activated as well now there isn't an auto shutoff mode when you take off these earphones from my experience taking off just the right earbud your left ear but of course stays about you're here that will actually go on standby and stop music while on the right ear bud you can actually still hear music going now if I took off both of these earphones at the same time it's the same result the job at least doesn't auto pause for some odd reason but will continue to play music in just the right earbud alone with the case you do get an extra two full charges for a total of nine hours of use if you were to include a full charge of the earphones themselves the only thing that I found really missing and these so far is the lack of onboard memories you locally store your music and the earphones themselves and again the touch gestures to adjust volume and toggle functions like these temps on icon X and briny - that would have been a bit more intuitive now let's take a look at all the health tracking options so this is possibly the number one reason why you would pay the premium and consider health tracking earphones over some normal ear film that just simply plays music now these drivers sport lights available for both Apple and Android has been in the works for some time here the F has been ever-evolving and it's gotten to the point where it really has everything that you want for one you can have the app track and segment and abundance of activities from basic walking running and cycling and if it's not on the list for some reason you can customize and simply create a sport profile for yourself now you can set a goal whether you want to go a certain distance a certain duration or if you want to burn a certain amount of calories you can set that up keep in mind the of distance and speed is based on your phone's GPS there's no built-in GPS in the earphones themselves now while you're performing your workout the job release will periodically come on through the earphones any voice prompt will tell you how fast you're moving how much distance you have gone down to eating cadence pace and sense there's even heart rate tracking built-in heart rate heart rate zones are also disclosed right through the earbuds themselves distance Sera's miles in one minute heart rate 52 beats per minute cadence zero steps per minute workout completed distance zero miles in two minutes and 31 seconds training Effect one this workout was easy for you calories one average heart rate fifty eight beats per minute heart rate zone light average cadence 35 that's per minute but alerts can be set up for every minute - every hour or at certain distances it's all completely up to you now in addition to these freeform activities there's a guided workouts if you're into that some infinities you use these movement sensors inside the earbuds themselves so there's automated rep counting each crunch that you do or each pushup let's say you do the jobless does a pretty good job at counting each rep so there's a decent amount already in the app itself if we kind of work out but you can customize your own workouts and basic create certain workout steps by manually making a workout routine now the very last set of features here that I want to touch base on are the extra health of measurements that Jabra is offering now vo2 max measurements are offered in determining where your health levels are perform a guided fitness test with the app and in the end a sport life app give you a baseline on where your house is I have their multitude reading that do two tests here redo that test and see where you stand amongst your peers also after each activity the driver app lets you know when your fitness levels are that's comparable to others within your age and weight the very less health measurement is recovering time based on your previous workouts your intensity heart rate efforts the app helps determine how much rest you need before you can function at your peak once again so to finish up the health aspect I want to discuss heart rate accuracy I use my tried-and-true polar h7 chest strap to compare and like most other heart rate sensors optical heart rate sensors that is they provide you with a good idea of where your heart rate is but it's not 100% accurate interval runs or workout to where your heart rate elevate them descends down quite a bit it seems a jumper it leaps had a little trouble keeping up overall and to be fair most applicants enters with a wrist base or other earphones that measures your heart rate on your earlobes the jabra has similar results but moving on here how's the sound quality but job release provides a nice punchy amount of bass is not as bass boost sounding like the jaybird earphones if you guys are familiar with them however you can tell this based on basic tracks enough to have music enjoyable all around the like basically mid-range is also neutral for my experience offering a clean and clear experience nothing brighter boxing but I do wish though that the mid-range would stand out a little bit more same with the higher frequencies as well just to give it a bit more bytes or more sparkle you can say to the music but at the end of the day the elites are very easy to listen to it offers very good quality here for the average consumer even the sound stage there is a moderate amount there if you can get a perfect seal again use those noise isolation foam ear tips that aren't included in the package the noise isolation helps out big-time so that's it for this review here overall for the price that you pay the drop relief does give you practically everything a pair of sport earphones and truly wireless earphones can offer today from a very good audio experience to a robust lineup of fitness features it's very much working look at if you're in the market for again truly Wireless sport earphones now I know it's a long video here if you guys can we show you support for all the work that's put into this video here be sure to LIKE and subscribe if you haven't already and be sure to follow me on Facebook Twitter and or Instagram as always my channel is here to help you make a purchase decision you guys take care I'll see you on the next one
