Jabra - Elite 65t

Unfortunately this was a bday present for my wife who stays in Mumbai. I stay at kochi. Due to covid I couldn’t send it to her via courier and hence didn’t open the package. Now in aug when I came to Mumbai and we unpacked it , the headphones don’t switch on . And I can’t even replace them since I didn’t open and check . And now I need to use warranty . Please send me the invoice of this order for me to proceed with the warranty
And yes no more headphone zone for me ever

I had heard a lot of good things for these earplugs for sometime. They are good but has its limitations.

1.
Sound quality - Was just Ok when used them directly from the box ( the treble is too high and base too little). Tweak the sound with their app and then it sounds a lot better

2.
The in-ear plugs hurt after wearing them for a while also when I sweat they even slipped out a few times. There is no additional stopper - holds on just by the friction of the ear buds in the ear canal. So you probably need to put on over sized buds to fit snugly.

3.
Shape of each of the ear plugs is such that it does not prevent u from wearing it in the wrong ear. If u put them on in a rush - u could place them in the wrong ear and know only after trying to adjust them for a while. Difference in feel is not too much. Same while putting it into a charging case.

4.
I used it to make calls and no one at the other end ever had a problem to hear MESCO I believe it’s good . But for me I thought that the sound in the call was low if I wore just the right ear piece - I had to wear both ear pieces to hear well.

Still Very usable - but probably not as good as the hype around these 😊

I would rate these earplugs at 3.5 but there is no such option

I wanted to mostly use these for calls and watching videos. They do the job perfectly.

The clarity of sound on the other side is really really good, which I have struggled with in the past using other wireless earphones.
There is no lag at all in watching Youtube videos on my phone.
I was absolutely surprise by how quickly it connects to my 2 phones simultaneously. I didn't see this feature marketed, written about or spoken anywhere. It's a feature that has lacked in many many true wireless earphones. This one has it, but of course, it will pick up call or play sound from only one device at a time.
They also give me a good battery life, so for average use in calls and watching videos (not too often), they go for a a couple of days if not more.

I would have preferred if the case was magnetic, but it's not, it's more traditional, but that's okay. Amazing earphones.

Awesome sound.Worthable

The sound is pretty good. There seems to be a balance issue however, where the left earpod sounds ever so slightly louder than the right. Also the quality of the earbuds could be better, so I'd suggest upgrading them. Overall I'm satisfied with what I got (especially since it was a great deal at 4k!).

I was researching true wireless and had my eyes on the various brands like jays and RHA.
Reasons to choose from headphone zone -

1 they don't do scams like many sellers do on Amazon by giving customers replication in boxes and later people found out it isn't original

2 headphone zone is specific market for audio lovers only

Reasons to go for Jabra elite 65T

1 bass doesn't gets distorted at high volumes that's just so impressive
2 at this price no true wireless is able to separate outer noise and vice versa lets you hear outer voices through its hearthrough technology

3 smooth connection immediately when you put earbuds in your ear

4 durability
5 lot of things get opened up when you use it throughouh Jabra sound app on playstore

My scene - when I first saw on headphone zone price dropped to 8000 I planned to buy. After that price went to 12000 and I patiently waited for discount and it was again 7000.

Conclusion - if you are looking for good bass clear sound true wireless at affordable price Jabra elite 65 is one of the best choices you can make

The earbuds sound excellent. Very crisp and clear sounds with sufficient amount of bass. The plugs that come by default are a bit too snug and cancels out most of the external noise. However, the earbuds have a hearthrough mode that allows external sound to be passed in when you wish to speak.
Mics are excellent. All of the people I spoke to mentioned my voice as being very clear.
Connections are instantaneous. I've never seen any Bluetooth device pair or connect so quickly with no latency during playback.
However, there is one mildly annoying issue with it. The earbuds have their own volume control. If you increase the volume on the earbuds, there's a mild hissing noise from the left earbud. I spoke with people that had owned this earbud previously and they noticed it only after I asked them to increase the volume and listen for it. The hissing noise stops about 5 seconds after you've stopped playing anything on it. There is a workaround. You can reduce the volume on the earbud and increase the volume on your phone. Then, the noise is less audible. If you Google 65t hissing noise or 75t hissing noise, you'll come across several threads. I got mine replaced but the second pair had it too.
Tbh, I'm willing to live with it because you barely notice it after a while and the price has come down considerably. The earbuds sound great otherwise and the mics are best I've heard on any Bluetooth earbuds.

Read a lot of reviews about the 65t elite before going for it. A lot of positives and a bit of negatives. What I felt, the sound output is a bit low, the case is very hard to open with a single hand and you need to use both hands. No other con as such, music quality is far better than any other TWS earphones you will use under the 10k mark. Build quality is very good, bass, treble, mids and highs are also very good. All in all a steal for 4k. There are a few things that will annoy you once in a while. A good buy

I'll try to keep this short and convey my experience to the best of my ability.
These earphones are pretty damn good and have great sound for the price I got it for (5k INR). If you want audio quality with value for money pick this. It's way better than the 2020 OnePlus Buds which I compared this with. Jabra gets the audio way better than OnePlus does. Most reviews don't really test the sound quality beyond their favorite tracks but I've tested this over multiple genres (Classical, Rock n Roll, Jazz, Blues, Folk) and this really delivers. Is it the best as per 2020 standards of audio (Airpods Pro and other competitors)? Definitely not, it is a 2018 variant and you have to keep that in mind, but for the price point it is still one of the kings, definitely blows the recent OnePlus Buds out of the water.

The shortcomings of the Elite 65t are in its design.
- Pressing the buttons on it, sort of push the earphones more into your ear. That's a discomforting feeling and you will want to readjust the earphone.
- Case isn't magnetic and is a little tough to open. So you run the risk of putting too much force and having your earphones slip out and fall. Easily avoidable if you pay attention while doing this, obviously.
- Wish the charging case was Type-C, the newer variants (75t and above) have fixed this.
- Lack of multi-device connectivity. Wish it had this (would be nice if I could watch a video on my laptop and when I get a call I would be notified via the earphones while being connected to the laptop, sadly this is a non-existent feature)

All in all, a great purchase for 5k INR.
If you buy it, you won't regret it.
