Jabra Elite 85t
Jabra 85t - A pleasing…

I chose a gold pair of these stylish compact Jabra 85t earbuds - mentally challenging them to live up to the online hype and positive reviews I'd read online. I am pleasantly surprised, and they continue to live up to expectations.
They have a compact case, with power cable (USB connector) and can be wirelessly charged. They come fitted with medium sized soft plastic ear inserts to help them fit snugly yet comfortably in your inner ear (also supplied with two other sizes, small and large). Having initially downloaded the Jabra Sound+ App, within which you can change settings and functionality, i selected a basic run through of how to set them up and use them. There is a fairly comprehensive info and help guide you can access, as well as ability to contact the Jabra tech team for assistance which I did at one point to do with Alexa pairing. The response was quite quick and comprehensive. So far I have been using these earbuds in basic ways that make my life easier, more convenient and life enhancing. When in the car I can ask my phone's google assistant to call someone for me. The call comes through quickly and clearly, whether using the 'hear through' option when I'm driving, or using the seriously good ANC function (Automatic Noise cancelling) when walking next to a road, or doing boring jobs in the garden and noisily cooking and washing up in the kitchen. Both myself and the other person can hear each other clearly and it is a pleasing experience (plus I get pesky jobs and errands done).
Music listening wise, I am impressed with the quality of sound when I listen to Viking FM (using their app). Easily comparable to listening via Twin Alexa speakers. I haven't needed to modify any of the settings available to me yet, via the Sound+ App - yet it's comforting to know i can easily tweak things if i wish. This includes Earbud functionality: i can change which earpiece i press and how to control volume, ANC, play, pause and so on. Even though I wasn't used to Earbuds and how to pair them up with my phone, then use them for calls and music - I was able to quickly and easily pick up what to and when, plus avoid cutting calls off!).
The only negative I can find, is for now, Alexa pairing/connection option is not available. Hopefully this will be reinstated in the future!
Extremely happy with my Jabra 85t earbuds, I believe they are durable and will give me many years of service, definitely rating them as worth their higher price point and can recommend them
