In the second half of 2021 , the headphone brand Jabra from Denmark will officially release its series of true wireless earphones, including the Elite 7 Active sports true wireless earphones that have been tested for you before, as well as the entry-level Jabra Elite 2, Elite 3, and the flagship Elite 7 Pro, a total of four new true wireless earphones. Among them, the entry-level Jabra Elite 2 and Elite 3 both use Bluetooth 5.2 transmission technology and support Qualcomm aptX audio source encoding audio format, and also have IP55 waterproof and dustproof grades and other functions. As for the flagship Jabra Elite 7 The Pro also has Bluetooth 5.2 transmission technology, and is equipped with active noise reduction technology with adjustable number of segments, IP57 waterproof and dustproof rating, Jabra MultiSensor Voice professional audio and other features, allowing consumers to choose according to their personal listening and use situation needs.

Starting from the flagship Jabra Elite 7 Pro, the main features of this true wireless headset are printed on the back of the box, including the Jabra MultiSensor Voice professional audio, active noise cancellation, and up to 9 hours (ANC) mentioned above. Off), single listening endurance, etc. In addition to the charging case and warranty documents, three sizes of silicone ear tips and accessories such as a USB-A to USB-C charging cable are included with the product.

Rather than saying that Jabra's new Elite 7 Pro is the next-generation model of the Elite 85t, it is better to say that the Elite 7 Pro is a new series that has been redesigned. The 7 Pro has been significantly downgraded in size and weight, and the edges of the case have become more streamlined, not as angular as before, making the appearance more pleasing, if you don't like it Elite 85t has more business fashion sense, maybe Elite 7 Pro will be a better choice.

The inside of the case is also equipped with two metal contacts BC847CDLP-7 for charging, the center is the wearing sensor device, and the front and rear sides of the headset are equipped with microphones, which are equipped with bone conduction induction microphones. Good audio quality, providing better call quality than before. The earphones also use a short tube design to provide a non-invasive and uncomfortable wearing experience. This time Jabra also provides earplugs made of new materials, which can not only improve wearing comfort, but also provide better fit and sound insulation Now users can also use the dedicated Sound+ App to check whether the size of the earbuds matches their individual ear shape.

This time, Jabra also redesigned the charging box of the Elite 85t, using a flat capsule design with a USB-C charging port on the front of the charging box and a power indicator above it, and also supports Qi wireless charging. The charging box with built-in rechargeable lithium battery can bring another 2.5 times of charging power to the headset.

The earphone charging slot on the inside of the charging box also has obvious left-right directionality, and is equipped with corresponding metal charging points. It adopts the standard magnetic adsorption design, so there is no need to worry that the earphone is not in the correct charging slot.

Here I am also preparing the Jabra Elite 85t to compare with the Elite 7 Pro. It should not be difficult for you to see that the charging box part has been changed from a higher design to a flat configuration, but both use the convenient Qi wireless charging function. In the headphone body part, the Elite 7 Pro moved the original outer microphone to the back of the headphone case, reducing the size and volume of the case without affecting the sound reception. Although the two true wireless headphones are designed with short headphone conduits, the It can be clearly seen that the Elite 7 Pro has also reduced the thickness of the headset, which enhances the stability when wearing it.

In actual wearing, the Jabra Elite 7 Pro does not have the common intrusive feeling of in-ear headphones when wearing it. Like the Elite 85t, it is specially designed by the parent company GN Hearing. Basically, whether it is a male or female user Both have the same comfortable wearing experience. Of course, you can also use Jabra's exclusive Sound+ App to detect the size of the earbuds to get better sound insulation. The Elite 7 Pro, which has a P57 waterproof and dustproof rating, also has excellent wearing stability. I use it when running or high-intensity interval exercise. It does not fall, and there is no uncomfortable stethoscope. effect, which is quite commendable.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro is equipped with Bluetooth 5.2 transmission technology. For the first pairing, you only need to take out the earphones from the charging box and enter the Bluetooth pairing mode. Then you can open the Bluetooth device list in the device to connect, but with the Sound+ App When the program is in use, it will be paired again, allowing the application to access related information such as the power of the headset. The stability of the Elite 7 Pro's Bluetooth connection has become more stable after the recent headset firmware update. There were some disconnections in the past, especially in the case of a complex wireless network environment. This headset also supports A single headset can be used independently, and it is also quite suitable for use as a driving headset.

The exclusive Sound+ App provided by Jabra can also be used with the Elite 7 Pro. Users can directly adjust and set the effect level for the noise reduction mode. In addition, in the ambient sound mode, there are also five stages that can be performed. Adjustment, of course, the previously existing music playback mode, and the personalized equalizer adjustment function are also retained. In addition, Jabra has also added fully personalized headphone function settings, including MySound, MyFit, Active Noise Cancellation, My Controls and other functions. After a simple test process provided by the app, you can obtain exclusive personal audio and noise reduction effects. , practical operation and other functions.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro seems to use touch operation, but in fact it is equipped with physical buttons on the outside of the casing. In actual operation, the buttons can be actuated without using too much force, so there will be no The sense of oppression during operation can also reduce the accidental touch of the touch buttons. When I was paired with the Apple iPhone 13 Pro, I turned on the full noise reduction mode and the volume setting of 50% to listen to music. The final measured single music playback time was about 7 hours and 15 minutes, and the battery began to run low. Voice prompts, when the active noise reduction is turned on, the battery life performance is not bad, and when the active noise reduction is not turned on, it can provide about an additional hour of battery life. I recommend that you can do it in two modes. Mix and match, switch noise reduction and ring silent modes according to the environment, so as to meet the needs of a day's work, commuting or sports use.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro adopts ANC active noise reduction technology, which is commonly used in real wireless currently on the market. After choosing the right earbud size and wearing it properly, it can have about 85% sound insulation effect. When music is not playing, there will be no noise. Obviously uncomfortable negative pressure, with the noise reduction mode of five-stage adjustment, mainly for noise reduction of the high-frequency part, and can also isolate the wind shear noise, the design of this part is quite good, for the recommendation of the noise reduction mode, If you are in an indoor environment, you can use 4~5 as the basic setting. If you are commuting or walking, you can use the mode setting of 1~3. You can also hear a little ambient sound when the music is not playing, but you can still Isolate most noise sources.

The ambient sound mode of the Elite 7 Pro also has a five-segment mode setting. The larger the value setting, the more ambient sound you can hear. However, unlike true wireless headphones such as AirPods Pro, in ambient sound mode or through In the transparent mode, the ambient sound will be amplified. The ambient sound mode of the Elite 7 Pro is more natural, and the effect of sound amplification is not so obvious. Of course, it also provides a more comfortable listening experience. When the noise reduction mode is fully turned on, you only need to set the volume at 50~65% to achieve a complete noise reduction effect. In addition, there will be no interference from wind shearing when used outdoors. The overall noise reduction function It is quite comprehensive.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro is a more backward tuning setting for vocals. In noise reduction mode and ambient sound mode, there is no difference in the sound quality of music playback. I use the "neutral" sound mode for audition. , Elite 7 Pro has a stable and solid mid-high audio performance, and has low-frequency audio with sufficient diving depth. Compared with the previous Elite 85t with more low-frequency audio, the Elite 7 Pro seems to converge a lot in this part, and it is more compatible with The appropriate benefits of the fusion of mid-high audio frequency, but the bass elasticity is slightly less clear, when used to listen to music with a strong sense of rhythm, it is less able to drive the mood of the music, which is a pity.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro also has excellent sound resolution, and has excellent grasp of the shape of each instrument. Even if it is the chorus part at the beginning of the movie theme song of "The Great Entertainer", you can hear different vocal interpretations instead of All are the same sound. The performance of this true wireless earphone for the high-frequency part is quite satisfactory, and the treble is a little dull. Although it can be enhanced through the Sound+ App, the basic tuning will not change. The Elite 7 Pro is also quite delicate in terms of vocal performance. The details including guttural sounds and transpositions are quite clear. With a sense of space that can be easily expanded, it is also quite suitable for listening to vocal music.

In addition to the flagship Elite 7 Pro, Jabra also launched two true wireless earphones, the Elite 2 and Elite 3, which are positioned in entry-level and mid-range models respectively. From the back of the box, you can see the basic appearance of the two earphones. There is not much difference in the above, including the included earplugs are also the same. Take a closer look at the functional differences between the two true wireless earphones. The Elite 2 uses a dual-microphone system, while the Elite 3 uses a four-microphone system. Both earphones have a noise-isolating design, but the Elite 3 also has the ability to listen to ambient sounds. For the battery life of a single listening session, although the two true wireless earphones have a maximum battery life of 7 hours in a single listening session, the Elite 3 can be used for up to 28 hours with the charging box, which is one more than the total battery life of the Elite 2. Fully charge the earphones time.

The Jabra Elite 2 and Elite 3 charging boxes do not have Qi wireless charging function, and can only be charged through the USB-C charging port on the rear of the charging box, but it is a practical design to support the fast charging function. The charging boxes of the two true wireless earphones have the same appearance design, which is similar to the previous Elite 85t charging box, but the size and height are reduced a lot, which is also easy to carry.

In order to allow you to clearly see the difference in the appearance of the two true wireless earphones, I especially borrowed the graphite gray color matching style. The earphone charging slot inside the charging box also has a true left and right earphone directionality, so as to avoid the situation that the installation is wrong and cannot be charged. The magnetic design is the current standard configuration of true wireless headphones. The earphone body adopts the same drop-shaped case design. If you want to distinguish the difference between the two earphones from the appearance, you can distinguish it from the panel outside the case. Under the same graphite gray color scheme, the Elite 2 on the left uses the inner earphone. Tibetan button configuration, so the color matching is the same as the headset body, while the Elite 3 on the right uses the same button configuration as the Elite 7 Pro, so the panel will be a lighter configuration of the same color.

This time, I also spent some time to experience the two true wireless earphones Elite 2 and Elite 2. In terms of wearing comfort, there is not much difference between the two earphones. They use the same short earphone tube configuration as the Elite 7 Pro. It makes the intrusion of the actual wearing much slower, but because the earphone casings are made of reinforced plastic materials, it is still slightly painful to wear for a long time. This part is not as suitable for long-term wearing as the Elite 7 Pro. A rather unfortunate place. The Elite 2 and Elite 3 both use button-type operation, but the Elite 2 with hidden operation buttons needs to use a lot of force to complete the action, which will also cause a sense of pressure on the upper ear when using it. The Elite 3, which has the same key configuration as the Elite 7 Pro, doesn't feel that way.

Both Jabra Elite 2 and Elite 3 are equipped with Bluetooth 5.2 wireless transmission technology and support Google's quick pairing function. If you are a user of an iOS operating system device, you need to perform Bluetooth pairing by pressing and holding the operation button of the headset at the same time. In addition to the SBC and AAC Bluetooth audio codecs, the two headphones also support Qualcomm aptX audio codecs. For the stability of the Bluetooth connection, I also tested the firmware of the two earphones after updating to the latest version. The Bluetooth connection stability of the Elite 3 is obviously much better than that of the Elite 2. In a more complex environment, it is a pity that the outgoing line is disconnected more often. Both earphones can also be used as separate earphones, but there is no built-in sensor device, so remember to take off the earphones. Pause the music first.

Both true wireless earphones can also be used with the dedicated Sound+ App, which can check the current battery capacity of the earphones, and can also use a custom equalizer, and the Elite 3 also provides an additional listening ambient sound function. It is also possible to perform functions such as firmware update, product registration and troubleshooting of the headset through the app. Although the functions are basically many compared with the Elite 7 Pro, it can fully realize the performance of the headset and provide a rich sense of hearing. Full of practical design.

Both Jabra Elite 2 and Elite 3 have good sound insulation design. As long as they are equipped with earplugs that fit the ear type, they can get about 80% sound insulation effect. However, if they do not have active noise reduction technology, they will still get better than the Elite 7 Pro. There is more high and low frequency noise. In the volume setting, Elite 2 needs to be set to about 75% of the volume to be completely isolated from the external environment, while the volume of Elite 3 can be completely isolated at about 60~65%. ambient sound. These two earphones also have IP55 waterproof and dustproof rating, coupled with the reinforced plastic case configuration, and the stable wearing feeling, they are also suitable for use as earphones for jogging, cycling and other sports.

The last thing I want to share with you is the actual sense of hearing. For the two true wireless earphones that are positioned in the entry-level and mid-range, the sound quality of the Elite 3 is still much better than that of the Elite 2. It takes too high volume to hear more details of the sound. I set it at 65% volume, and the Elite 2 needs about 80% volume to have the same effect. And in terms of audio details, sound resolution, sound field breadth and other aspects, the Elite 3 still has certain advantages, and the two true wireless headphones also use mid-high audio with deep bass as the main tuning. However, compared with the Elite 7 Pro, the low-frequency sound setting is more prominent, which slightly affects the interpretation of medium and high frequency audio, and there will be a kind of hearing imbalance. Users can use a dedicated application to Adjusting the sound you like can also further solve the situation caused by the basic tuning.

Finally, the main functions and features of the three Jabra Elite series headphones are presented, and of course, the official suggested price that you care about is for your reference. Of course, in the absence of budget constraints, it is best to start directly with the Elite 7 Pro. If you need to settle for the next best choice, I think the Elite 3 will be a relatively more value-for-money choice in terms of Bluetooth pairing stability, sound quality performance, operating experience, and overall battery life. In the end, I still take the trouble to remind you that the feeling of listening is a personal subjective feeling, please focus on your actual audition.
