These earbuds are a testament to Jabra's commitment to pushing the boundaries of audio technology. Designed for the active lifestyle, the Elite 8 Active Gen 2 earbuds seamlessly blend robust performance with unwavering durability.
What I Loved:
* Unstoppable Sound: The Dolby Audio Spatial Sound truly elevates the listening experience. Music comes alive with a depth and dimension that's hard to match in this category.
* Built to Last: These earbuds are practically indestructible. I've put them through rigorous workouts, including intense runs and cycling, and they've held up flawlessly. The military-grade certification is no exaggeration.
* Noise Cancellation That Delivers: Whether I'm commuting or trying to focus at the gym, the noise cancellation effectively blocks out distractions. This allows me to fully immerse myself in my music or calls.
* Secure Fit: The earbuds stay securely in place, even during the most vigorous activities. I never once had to worry about them falling out.
What Could Be Better:
* Battery Life: While the battery life is decent, I found myself needing to recharge more frequently than I'd like during extended workouts.
* Price: These earbuds come at a premium price point, which may be a deterrent for some.
Overall:
The Jabra Elite 8 Active Gen 2 earbuds are a premium product that delivers on its promise of exceptional audio quality and unwavering durability. While the price tag might be a consideration, their exceptional performance and robust build quality make them a worthwhile investment for serious athletes and anyone who demands the best from their audio gear.

Best Headphones I've tried - even better if you exercise. --> Airpods pro 2 user
Did a lot of research and ended up choosing these:Had to write a review because, WOW, these are excellent. I come from the Airpods pro 2, but got tired of them falling out of my ears when exercising or whenever i got a little sweaty (I would wear them for big part of my day) --> Just out of the box these Jabra Elite 8 active gen 2 have some crazyyyyyy bass, and if you use the EQ it gets even better, in my honest opinion these sound way better than Apple's. Plus the Jabra's stay on my ears, feel nice, and I know the battery life is gonna be way better.

BE AWARE: IT IS NOT THIER WARRANTY: the statements about military grade durability and "won't slip out of war" are totally marketing statements and has nothing to do with their actual product or warranty. I bought the jabra 8 gen 2 active not more than a couple of weeks ago, while I was happily working out, the right earbud fell out of the ear due to sweat and my dubbell dropped on it at the same time (35lb). The ear bud has a crack now and jabra says this is not under warranty. Quality of sound is great, this was my 5th jabra product, but I was always under the impression "non-slip" and "durable", well they are not! So buy this by all means just know that the claims of durability and non-slip are not under "product discription" but only a marketing tool.
Marketing deception: durability and nonslip: marketing purposes only, not actual warranty

Another statement: "workout as hard as you want" "they won't slip" "military grade durability"
This must be a violation of a state's deceptive trade practices act.
Now they are asking me to buy a new one by saying that "jabra are durable and nonslip, but the warranty does not cover that". They should be allowed this product to market it in that manner than because that creates a public perception (deception) of non-slip and durability.
