A complete upgrade to an already great pair of sports earbuds Building on the Elite 8 Active\u2019s acclaim, Jabra wasted no time in launching a follow-up with bigger specs and an innovative charging case.

life is comparable to the first generation, and longer than the AirPods Pro 2 earbuds battery (5.5 to 7 hours) and Fit Pro earbuds battery (6 to 7 hours). Get 8 to 14 hours of listening time on a full charge, depending on how you use the earbuds. ANC uses the most power, and using spatial audio reduces that by 2 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next-generation Elite 8 Active, now available on Jabra’s website and online retailers like Amazon, not only becomes Jabra’s true flagship for sports, but also sets a new standard for the subcategory. Equipped with more powerful adaptive active noise cancellation and spatial audio, and a smart case that doubles as a Bluetooth transmitter to stream audio to the earbuds. Series staples like damage-resistant design and high Bose Headphones Battery <\/a><\/u><\/strong>life also remain unchanged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The control scheme has not changed, nor have some of the shortcomings of the first-gen version. Even so, the Elite Active 8 (2nd Gen) are undoubtedly the best fitness earbuds, performing well in multiple verticals and outperforming the best-selling Beats Fit Pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almost all functions are operated through the Jabra Sound+ app. Here, you’ll find all the main audio features, including EQ, music presets, sound modes (ANC\/Hearthrough), and spatial sound. Call Experience lets you adjust different settings for voice calls (equalizer, sidetone), MyControls is for control customization, and Soundscapes has multiple audio clips for stress relief. The app also includes a Jabra Elite 8 Active Gen 2 Headphones Battery<\/a><\/u><\/strong> level indicator, Find My Jabra (earbuds), firmware updates, and a sleep timer feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are special wireless features outside of the app, such as Bluetooth Multipoint and one-touch pairing for Android and Windows devices. There\u2019s even a shortcut widget to enable a listening mode (ANC\/spatial sound) without having to go into the app. It automatically appears on the notification bar on your smartphone. You\u2019ll also see it pop up on the touchscreen when you wake the device from sleep mode. Excellent wireless performance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original Elite 8 Active was an excellent headset for making calls, and the sequel is no exception. Most calls were met with positive feedback. My wife complimented me on how loud and clear I sounded. The ANC worked well on voice and video calls, which, oddly, wasn’t the case with the more powerful Elite 10 (2nd Gen). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JABRA ELITE 8 ACTIVE GEN 2 REVIEW: CONCLUSION<\/p>\n\n\n\n
