Sound: The Jabra Elite Active 65t produces a lively and clear sound image and delivers without noise or distortion even at higher volume. With the Equalizer app, the sound can easily be adjusted to suit your own needs. In the test, we turned up the bass slightly via the equalizer to get the perfect sound.

In addition to the excellent sound and the good wearing comfort, the model scores with high-quality workmanship, stable connection and a very decent battery life. A very good choice for both sport and everyday life. The price is not entirely without, but if you use your headphones regularly, you definitely won’t go wrong here.
