There’s almost too much choice when it comes to truly wireless headphones. Depending on your aesthetic and style preferences, the fit you want or the brand you’re most loyal too, you’ve got options. Jabra has released its new Jabra Elite 3 truly wireless earbuds, and a pair has landed in my test kitchen for review.
We’ll talk fit and feel, sound quality and whether these have nose cancellation or not, plus if you stick with me well talk price and if i recommend them
Jabra Elite 3 are a budget version of Jabra’s truly wireless earbuds that are made for those endless zoom or conference calls. They’ve got properties that make them great for clear, quiet calls, plus HearThrough which lets you allow some outside noise to bleed in in case you need to stay alert and on-ear touch controls too.
Fit and feel, design
When it comes to the design of these earbuds they follow the Jabra formula which is to say it leans more to the utilitarian, simple and basic as opposed to flashy. These are definitely meant for working professionals with an eye towards subtlety and discretion, as opposed to a club kid who wants the latest bling.
Sound quality is quite good, as many Jabra headphones and earbuds are. There’s a good depth of sound, and the bass sounds full and resonant, while the high end is clear and twinkly. It was really easy to get lost in the music wearing the Elite 3. There’s no muddiness and vocals cut through easily and clearly. In short, these earbuds sound outstanding, whether you’re listening to music, podcasts, or your boss droning on.
What about Call quality?
Jabra headphones and earbuds are made to deliver on crisp calls. Four microphones in these headphones help to ensure you’re always heard.
When I used them for phone and Zoom calls I was able to hear clearly, and my callers said I was clear too.
Depending what you read about these you might be led to believe they have noise cancellation. In truth, they don’t. Noise cancelling is the act of using digital algorithms to listen for and then cancel out external noise bleeding in. What these do have is passive noise isolation, which is essentially a tight fit and a good seal to physically block noise, and they also have HearThrough, which allows you to digitally open up the earbuds to let some of that noise bleed in on your own terms. That means you can keep an ear for a crying baby, barking dog, or the doorbell. HearThrough can be toggled on or off in the Jabra Sound + app or using
When HearThrough is on, you get your music mixed with whatever’s happening around you. Without HearThough on you get Noise Isolation, which is the act of using a physical barrier to block out sound (think a great seal or thick ear cups or foam on over ear headphones).
The earbuds will operate up to 10m (33ft) from your device, and you can pair with up to six devices, but while they will remember devices, you can only stay connected to one device at a time, and it will default to the last connected device. They’ll also turn on automatically when the earbuds are removed from the charging case and turn themselves off after 15 minutes without a connection or 30 minutes with no activity.
One thing I can say about Jabra is that their connectivity is great; I can walk all over my main floor, putting walls between me and my phone and there’s not break up or digitization.
If you’re comparison shopping, the Jabra Elite 3 is missing a few features found in something like the Elite 85t:
No digital Active Noise Cancellation
No wind resistance
Fewer embedded microphones (4 here, 6 in 85t)
No Qi charging
Less customization in Jabra app
No in-app hearing test to customize fit and sound
If some of those features are must-haves for you, there’s an easy fix: go for the Elite 85t instead of the Elite 3’s. But at a great price point, you’re getting a great pair of headphones with the Elite 3.
Overall these are solid budget earphones. The sound quality for both music and calls is great, and while they don’t have some of the features in more expensive Jabras, like wind resistance, and the Hear Through is a bit lacking, these are a great way to balance features with price.
Jabra Elite 3 sells for about $99CAD/$79USD
I have just watched another video on the Jabras that was almost 3 times as long yet your video had twice as much information. Yours was was also presented much more clearly and concisely. I enjoyed this.
Thanks, much appreciated!
Erin's videos are so insanely good compared to every other long winded video on these products I can't believe it
Glad you like them! And thank you!
Thanks Erin, I loved how well you managed to touch upon all the important points in a short video. I also really liked the fact that there is no hype or gimmicky feel to your videos. Keep making more content. Subscribed. :)
Thanks so much for the feedback and the sub!
ur reviews are insanely well paced, you really deserve so much more subs fr
Thanks so much! Appreciate that!
I bought the elite 3,4, and 7. I ended up returning the 4 and 7 and kept the 3. The Elite 3 is excellent! It's comfortable to wear, the sound quality is very good, and it just does the job! The Elite 4 has stiff buttons that ruin the whole experience, so I would skip this one unless you don't mind hurting your hears each time you click the buttons.
Update:I have reordered the 7 for a competitive price and it rocks! when it comes to overall sound quality, more software customisation, and active noise cancelling it's unbeatable. This doesn't take away from the quality and more affordable Elite 3 which is still an excellent purchase. However, I'm sharing with you my experience to help you make an informed decision in case you're not sure what to get. I hope you found this helpful!
Thanks for sharing your experience!
@@ErinLawrenceTV Thanks for the great review, Erin. I have now edited my experience 😁
Erin I am totally in owe n love with u, the way you explain things with purity….
Wow, thank you so much!
Thank you Erin.
Any time Ron!
Nice review Erin but playing to buy soundcore liberty 2 pro for my daily useses fantastic video
Between both are which one's better jabera elite 3 active Soundcore Liberty 2 pro or Jabra Elite 75T
Upgraded to these from JBL tune 660s and the bass is so much boomier and clean sounding
Sweet!
I just got them from Costco Australia for $96 and set the EQ on "bass boost". Metallica didn't sound great. But when I changed the way they were sitting in my ear it made a huge difference to the music sounding great.
I have a Bose QC35 II for music. I got these mainly for phone calls and zoom meetings at work and when working from home. Hence these are fine for my needs.
Excellent feedback. Thanks for sharing it here.
Nice vid... jabra sound+ is a third party app? Not jabra?
Great video - thank you!! Has anyone used for running? My (very) old Jabras are breaking. These are half price at the moment in Aus
Accidentally put mine through the wash (right earbud only). Used the same day while doing lawns, had to put them back into charger case and BOOM worked fine. Tried using them next day and now right earbud sometimes flashes orange and now wont work. Anyone else have this problem?
Best of the best Erin ❤️
Thanks Pablo!
Hope you do the shure earbuds
Ooohhh. Good suggestion. I also just got the new Amazon buds
Thanks
Welcome!
Did you notice a hissing sound/white noise while using the Elite 3?
Not on my pair...
Hey Erin how do they compare to elite 75t in terms of sound quality..... If we set aside ANC and hear through...
In all honesty, all of the Jabra headphones I’ve tried both budget and high end sound fantastic. You’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference.
@@ErinLawrenceTV Ohh okay....thanks for your reply.... 🙂👍
I just got a Jabra elite 3 earbuds. I am able to connect it to Android OS but when I try to connect it to windows 10 laptop, I am facing issues. please help me on how to connect these to windows 10 laptop.
I’m so confused when it comes to charging. It says to just put the ear buds in and close the lid, but when I did they didn’t charge at all. When I connect it to the wire, the led light is green on the case, so it should be fully charged, however, it won’t charge the earbuds unless it’s plugged in? I’m so confused
Battery of the case perhaps broken?
"club-kid"? 😆irecall when mall rat was a Derogatory.😉 Awesome content.
Tried the 75T and this Elite 3 doesnt work well with my samsung S21. Some distortion noise while watching Netflix and youtube😏
That's frustrating. :(
❤️❤️❤️
