Jabra Elite 3
Engadget Review
The Elite 3 are arguably Jabra’s best true wireless product yet. These $80 earbuds are tiny and comfy with impressive sound quality and good battery life. There are some premium features missing, but nothing you wouldn’t expect to be omitted on a low-cost model.
Good enough to rival competitors that cost twice as much.
