Jabra Elite 7 Pro is fascinating! I don’t mean to sway your judgement just yet, therefore, I shall do a comparison between the Jabra Elite 7 Pro and an Apple Airpods (2nd Generation). Why Apply Airpods (2nd Generation)? That is because I have one of that as well. So here goes…

Do you remember the device from the above picture? Maybe you’re too young then and not driving yet when this device was introduced. It was the coolest thing to have one in the card back then. *I guess you can guess my age now.
Jabra is a Danish brand specialising in audio equipment, now owned by GN Audio. They’ve come a long way, from inventing the world’s first Bluetooth headset to the world’s first sports earbuds and now this Jabra Elite 7 Pro.

LIFESTYLE WITH JABRA
To be honest, I recently used the Jabra Elite 7 Pro a whole lot more than my Airpods. You can watch the full video on my Instagram. I really maximised my usage from the time I woke up, to cleaning up, to exercising and even answering calls during my run. By end of the day, I love to use the ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) function for reading and listening to music.
I do online training from time to time and I love how the Jabra Elite 7 Pro can more than 4 hours, compared to my Airpods, which died after only 3 hours. Many trainees told me that they can hear me clearer on Jabra than Apple.
PERSONAL VIEW
If sound quality is your priority, I believe Jabra Elite 7 Pro will suit you best. These earbuds deliver the best sounds and the noise cancellation is close enough to a noise cancelling headphones. The microphone audio for calls on-the-go is also very clear. If your prefer aesthetically looking earphones, then my vote is on the Airpods.
Well, Jabra has definitely come a long way, and I’m definitely convinced that it is a great device to have for work and leisure.
