According to our earbuds expert
With the Jabra Elite Active 65t, you can listen to music during your workout and monitor your workout performance. These earbuds are completely wireless, so you won't be bothered by cables getting in the way. You can freely move around in the gym or during a run. You can really go at it, as the design is splash proof and sweat resistant. You can monitor the number of steps and duration of your training with the integrated activity tracker, so you can follow your progress. When you make phone calls, you can be heard clearly, thanks to the 4 integrated microphones. You can decide whether or not to filter out ambient noise using the Jabra Sound+ app. That way, you can safely run or cycle without becoming a danger on the road. When you take the left bud out of your ear, the music will pause. That is ideal for when you need to pay at the cash register. With the different sizes of earbuds that are included, you can easily find the right fit. Always try various sizes.

Design
Did a lot of research on which one to buy. I am an audio technician by trade, with my personal custom in-ear system. So it doesn't get any better than that (expensive 4-way) set. That's why there was also the fear that it would be disappointing, so they don't! I hesitated for a long time between the Jabras and the new ones from Samsung, because I have everything else from Samsung. Finally opted for the Jabra's....
Out of the box, they connect immediately and very quickly. The sound is still not quite right. But in the S series of Samsung smartphones you can effectively adjust each earpiece to your personal hearing, you can also adjust the EQ in the Jabra app and with that combo the sound is really surprisingly good...
The heartrue function also works very well, only if you use it on the bike with a fair amount of wind, it will drive you crazy. Tie it off, because then the wind noise is unbearable.
Making and receiving calls goes quite well, speech and hearing are both good, not great, but neatly in order.
Delay between image and sound, I can't say much about that, I use them 99% for effective music listening.
Charging is fast, but a USB-C connection would have been more convenient. Wasn't a deal breaker for me though. More than enough devices on Mini USB here. Wireless charging is also not included, but that is also a problem for me, I also do not use my smartphone while it is possible ...
Drop outs, yes they are there, no real explanation found yet when it exactly takes place and when it doesn't. But I think that error is more related to my Samsung S8. I've had other BT sets that also suffered from it.
Conclusion: Expensive, but definitely worth the money if you are looking for good quality, measuring convenience and good battery life. They are also water, dust and sweat resistant, so for sports, which I use them for, they are ideal. Recommended!
On the other hand, if you are looking for "top of the line" audio quality, then true wireless solutions are NEVER the right solution :-).

Very satisfied. Stay in place with running and cycling. With a lot of wind on a racing bike with HearThrough function on is not recommended. Wind remains a difficult story with earplugs anyway. Calling on the street has not really been tested yet. Calling at home works well. App works great. Find my Jabra function can be useful in case of loss.

It's a fantastic product that looks good and does exactly what it promises. They may feel a little uncomfortable in your ear at first, but this goes away after a while of use.
