True-wireless earbuds may be one of the most exciting things to happen to audio in recent years. While the Apple AirPods might be the first model that comes to mind in that space, there are plenty of other brands bringing fantastic sound-quality and high-end features to the market.
One such company is Jabra. The Elite 75t and Elite Active 75t earbuds come with all sorts of features, and they’re about to get even better, as Jabra has announced that they’re going to receive Advanced Active Noise Cancelation through an update.
In addition, the company has announced a brand new model on Jabra.com, called the Jabra Elite 85t, that brings advanced features to the table.
Jabra Elite 85t Earbud Features
The new Jabra Elite 85t looks to be a really solid pair of earbuds. The main selling point is the company’s Advanced Active Noise Cancelation. With this, you can choose to block out all outside noise, let all the outside noise in, or go anywhere in between.
The headphones also feature a semi-open design, which relieves pressure and creates a more comfortable fit. Additionally, the tower of the Elite 85t does not sit as deeply within the ear, giving you a more comfortable earbud and a more secure fit.
One of the biggest issues with true-wireless earbuds is battery life. Jabra’s new Elite 85t promise around 5.5 hours of listening with ANC on and 7 hours battery with it off. The case brings the total jam time to 25 hours ANC on and 31 hours with ANC off.
If you like using your earbuds to make calls, the new earbuds feature 6-microphone call technology and wind protection.
For availability, Jabra is set to release the new Elite 85t Earbuds on November 1 for $229.
Jabra Elite 75t and Elite Active 75t Update
Perhaps the most surprising part of this announcement is that Jabra is actually adding the same Advanced Active Noise Cancelation to the existing Jabra Elite 75t and Elite Active 75t. The headphones are engineered on a Qualcomm chipset to enable the feature on the existing headphones.
Starting in October, new pairs of the Jabra Elite 75t and Elite Active 75t will come with the ANC feature enabled out-of-the-box.
