I do not recommend the product. price to performance ratio tristic. during anc the left earpiece noises, supposedly a firmware issue according to various reviews. Handsfree does not work as it should, for every phone call the other party can't hear me, in sports the headphones fall out the moment one sweats and does exercises where one jumps or runs. Since it's an active version designed for sports, it shouldn't do that.

I am evaluating after less than a month of use. I am max satisfied. I wanted max protection (IP68), long battery life, user adjustable equalizer, mechanical buttons and most importantly super sound. I got everything I wanted, plus customizable button functions (a plus for me) and adjustable automatic headphone behavior when one/both headphones are removed from the ears. The app is clear, has a lot of settings (I don't miss or miss anything) and the basic functions can be switched in the main bar of the phone and also directly on the headphones with buttons, everything can be set to your image. For me it's great and especially great sound even for D'n'B / Rock fan. I wouldn't change it, "good for me".
Battery life. Currently one of the greatest endurance.
Perfect sound (I listen to D'n'B, Rock) - bass (even around 20 Hz) is great, nothing is missing. The highs are perfect, the overall sound is great. The mids are great too, no plastic resonances, etc.
Fully user-adjustable equalizer in the app (5 user-adjustable frequencies, fully sufficient for me) - not just a predefined equalizer like other competing brands.
IP68 protection, i.e. max coverage that exists, I can use the headphones anywhere, without restrictions.
Mechanical buttons instead of touch surfaces. Mechanically they work exactly as I would like - tactile response perfect, no accidental tactile touches. This is a big plus for me.
The mechanical buttons are recessed in the frame around them. So there is no risk of accidentally pressing the button when adjusting the headphones in the ears, this is also a big plus for me.
The individual button functions can be changed/set in the app.
In the slide-out bar on your phone, you can see the battery status of each headphone and the charging case, i.e. you don't need to launch the app to see the battery status. In this bar, you can also toggle between ANC/Off/HearThrough and switch between stereo and Dolby surround sound without launching the app.
When I'm listening to music and I have ANC on and I take one headphone out of my ear, the other headphone (which is still in my ear) automatically switches to HearThrough mode, i.e. I can hear sounds through it like I don't have it there. When the first earpiece is returned to the ear, the second earpiece switches back to the original ANC/atd. mode. This is great.
You can only make calls with one handset - left or right.
When I'm on the phone in the bathroom, the other party doesn't hear the echo like with traditional wired headphones: -D
The headphone case is small, lightweight.
You can set what should happen when you take one earphone out of your ears, etc.
Sound/voice response of headphones when changing volume/ANC/.
The ANC is great for me, but someone might want an adjustable ANC level - I can't hear the engine in the car (and I have a six-cylinder and a bit of a leaky exhaust), it's quiet on the street on a busy city road like a village where the dog died.
When I don't take the headphones out of the case, but they are lying on the table for a while and put them in my ear, they sometimes don't connect with the mobile phone, even if I press the button on them (to wake them up). But when removed from the case, they always work as they should.
Occasionally my sound drops out for half a second, it's happened about 5 times in a month. But I have an older Samsung Galaxy S9 phone with android 10, maybe it's that.
The audio response when changing the volume or switching ANC/HearThrough/Off has a small volume (beep/voice volume) - when I listen to music I have to search for it, luckily I can feel the click of the button on my finger.

Compared to the Elite 7, which I have used for a long time before, this is a very unsuccessful model. Considering the price, I wouldn't expect such a shoddy product from Jabra.
Sound quality
Battery life
Ergonomics
ANC turns off and on randomly during a call
ANC level and hear-through cannot be adjusted as in older models
One of the headphones does not turn on quite often. You have to put it back in the case, close it and then it works.

I bought it for running because of the eavesdropping. I expected to hear the ambient sounds better. At home the listening is good but when I play sports it doesn't fit my car in the distance it gets louder then gets closer and suddenly goes silent and gets louder again when it is close. My experience so far is from one run. I can't compare how the ambient listening works with another manufacturer maybe it's like that everywhere. The sound from the headphones is great and they hold in the ears great.
