Jabra Elite 2 Earbuds Full Review
Launch Date & Price
The Jabra Elite 2 was officially launched on September 27, 2021, and is currently priced at ₹2,999 in India. It is available in Dark Grey and Navy Blue color options.
Hardware & Audio Performance
The Jabra Elite 2 features 6mm speakers that deliver a 20Hz - 20kHz frequency range in music mode and 100Hz - 8kHz in speak mode. It supports Qualcomm® aptX™ and SBC audio codecs, ensuring high-quality sound reproduction. The dual MEMS microphones provide clear voice pickup, making it suitable for calls and voice commands.
Software & Smart Features
The earbuds are compatible with the Jabra Sound+ app, allowing users to customize their listening experience. Google Fast Pair ensures seamless connectivity for Android users, while One-Touch Spotify Playback offers instant access to music. The earbuds support Amazon Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant, making them versatile for voice commands.
Fit & Comfort
Designed as in-ear true wireless earbuds, the Jabra Elite 2 comes with three sizes of silicon EarGels™ (Large, Medium, Small) for a secure and comfortable fit.
Battery Life & Charging
The earbuds provide up to 7 hours of playback, with a total of 21 hours when combined with the charging case. A 10-minute fast charge offers 1 hour of usage, while a full charge takes up to 3 hours. The standby time is an impressive 75 days, thanks to the rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
Connectivity & Compatibility
Equipped with Bluetooth 5.2, the earbuds support multiple profiles, including A2DP v1.3, AVRCP v1.6, HFP v1.7, and HSP v1.2. They can pair with up to 6 devices and have an operating range of 10 meters. The auto power on/off feature ensures efficient battery management.
Jabra Elite 2 does not include an active noise cancellation (ANC) feature. It relies on passive noise isolation provided by its in-ear design and well-fitting EarGels™. While this setup helps reduce ambient noise to a certain extent, it won't actively cancel out surrounding sounds as true ANC Technology does.
For users who prioritize noise cancellation for a more immersive listening experience or for noisy environments, you might need to look into higher-end models or different product lines that offer dedicated ANC features.
