Jabra Elite 10 vs Elite 8 Active Earbuds In-Depth Review | Jabra Are BACK!

Jabra Elite 10 vs Elite 8 Active | InsideTech Review 🎧🔥
Jabra used to be a major player. Their Elite 65t and then later the 75t were ahead of the most the competition when they came out. But the rest of the market caught up and then pulled ahead (in particular with sound quality). These new earbuds bring some crucial improvements that I think can see them challenging at the top again. So we’re gonna get into all of the key differences between them and also how they compare to the strong competition we have in 2023.
"World's toughest earbuds"...let's take a look!

Great video format!! So much information!

[@insidetechltd]

Thanks a lot!

[@peoplelikeus3684]

Aussie here... I recently upgraded from my Elite 7 Pro to the new 10 and have to say its a big step in overall improvement. The soundstage from the 7 Pro to 10 is much wider and more dynamic in sound with increase from 6mm driver vs 11mm driver for wider soundstage. Very happy with the and the ANC is greatly improvement from my listening experience. Multipoint bluetooth is nice to. I use it seemlessly on Zoom and Team calls for work on my laptop and voice calls. Love it. Recommended.

i got the elite 10 and it's been pretty good. im not an audiophile so i'm not too critical of the details as others, but for work and entertainment it does the job and the anc is very very good when you're taking calls in a noisy environment.

[@haidars]

I use my 85T mostly for work call and meeting, 70-75% of time for call and the rest for music and movies... Was thinking about upgrading to elite 10, but the noise cancelling for call doesn't impress me that much.. guess will wait for the next release

[@max-S]

Very good review, not as biased as other reviews (which mostly resemble commercials for the product).

[@insidetechltd]

Thank you!

[@LuggageChestHead]

I have the elite 8 active and they are my go to buds amongst many these days and a nice upgrade for my 7 actives. Especially the lag when watching videos is considerably better but not totally gone. I wonder if I should get the elite 10 too, because anc is one of the most important features to me.

[@insidetechltd]

Do it!

[@jannenyman1373]

I bought both as I couldn't make my mind up, 10 sounds a bit richer and are my go to buds for calls, 8 active is not bad at all and comes with better ip rating.

[@princesiraj1]

I'm very impressed with the ANC and sound improvements that Jabra have made. They were already my favorites on fit, but with the ANC and sound quality now, i bought the 8 Active and am not looking back.

[@slmyatt]

I tried the 8 and the 10, and could not personally tell a difference in sound quality and ANC. I was pleasantly surprised by the retention of the 10's, but the slightly larger size did rub a spot on my outer ear. Comfort a problem I experienced with all other brands I tired except Jabra. The 75t and 7 pro never rubbed me the wrong way, and I never lost a bud. I reluctantly returned the 10's.

[@footbollpro]

The anc is adjusted automatically depending on the surroundings. Is there anyway to have it on max manually?

[@hasantomuk]

I use jabra 8 active and it has really good sound and ANC. Also, it does not fall out of the ear and does not cause any discomfort.

[@slmyatt]

@footbollpro not yet. Hopefully a January update. Sharp spunds do slip through before anc takes hold

Working on 3 iPhone videos at once, loads of in-depth testing. But the first one is hopefully just a couple of days away!

[@JLummin]

great review and I agree but have my own thoughts. Bought both Elite 10 and Technics AZ80 as was interested in trying both. Technics win in ANC by a little, transparency and sound by a lot as sound was more rich and transparency was amplified but they lose to Jabra in the fit. Now my priority is ANC/transparency and sound so that overcame the fit. Fit mainly was because Jabra's design fit better and the Technics are more bulky but switching foam tips vs stock silicone helped improved the fit. Jabra in the right direction as mainly introducing the higher codecs for better sound and working on that ANC/transparency combo and they should be good but this time, its the AZ80s for me.

[@insidetechltd]

Thank you! The AZ80 are arguably the earbuds of 2023, so that makes sense. Just seen Jabra announce some important updates and new features coming to the new Elite earbuds - so I’m looking forward to that and if they change anything!

[@risabsai]

very detailed review. thank you\

[@insidetechltd]

Thank you!

[@williemadrid9137]

Subbed! What an amazing review 👏 A quick and important question i hope that you will answer me.. For the gym and running which one to choose: Jabra Elite 8 Active or Beats Fit Pro

[@insidetechltd]

Thank you! So the Elite 8 Active are a lot more durable, that's ideal for exercising. But Beats Fit Pro have a wing tip that could be crucial for keeping them secure in the ear. The annoying thing about them is you don't get multiple sizes to get one that really suits your ear - so you end up in a similar position to any other earbuds: it all depends on how well they fit and stay in your ear. I can't speak for your particular ear shape, but I personally found the Elite 8 Active stayed in place surprisingly well, even with no wingtip. If possible, order from somewhere that let's you try them so you can test it out i.e. the official websites 👍🏼

[@williemadrid9137]

​@@insidetechltdThank you so much .. I'm leaning towards the Elite 8 Active because they're newer, more durable and since i used Samsung buds (1st generation) for 4 years now i think the Jabras look a lot like them in shape .. I'm worried about the irreplaceable wingtips of the Beats Fit Pro as i don't have a choice to try them out before ordering in my country.

[@user-gd2vw7iq7b]

Thank you for your great review. Did you have a chance to compare Elite 8 Active and Elite 4 Active? I switched to the latter from Elite 7 Pro as Actives gave me significantly better sound, I think due to aptx codec. So now I'm hesitant if Elite 8 will sound better without the codec.

[@insidetechltd]

I certainly did and you raise a really interesting point. I also have my Elite 4 ranked slightly higher than the 7 Pro for sound quality - and I believe it's more than just the codecs too, but a tuning and/or driver improvement. A simple test is to listen on an iPhone (which forces AAC and can't use aptX) and it sounds better still. People just assume the more expensive or 'high-end' model must have better sound...but that's not necessarily the case and exactly why I test everything out! Also, the 8 Active and 10 are both a significant step up from the 4 - codecs or not. I think you'll notice the difference!

[@batdroid2705]

These chaps reviews are God-tier. Brittant stuff, mate

[@insidetechltd]

[@mikebrooke9737]

Thanks for the great review. I got the elite 10 and love the fit and Anc but the call quality in a noisy environment is just not good. I'm wondering if Jabra can fix this in an update or I might return them with sadness

[@insidetechltd]

It is definitely possible to make improvements with software updates...there's just sadly no way to know. Just gotta wait and see (or go for a different pair if you don't want to wait around hoping, of course!)

[@varuna6089]

Hey brother, glad you're enjoying the Elite 10s. How does the music sound? That's what I pretty much only care for.

[@StructureMastery]

Thank you very much for your videos, they are a great help in my search for wireless headphones. I'm still a bit lost in the competition, I'm looking for wireless headphones for everyday life, with good sound quality because I really enjoy music, but also a good fit for when I'm doing sports. I don't want to spend too much on these headphones either, as I'm a student, but I'm willing to pay the price for quality. Would you have any models to recommend or any advice on my choice? (I have a Samsung phone)

[@insidetechltd]

You're welcome! Well I have videos detailing the very best headphones on the market like the earbuds awards (kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIqaeJ-ZibRlgtU) but I guess the first thing is you need to set your budget. How much are you willing to spend? If you set a price limit, you can start to narrow down your options

[@StructureMastery]

i think under 200, and like, no 199, but at least 20$ under@@insidetechltd

[@insidetechltd]

Ok so you could try Technics AZ60, OnePlus Buds Pro 2 or Sony's LinkBuds S - they all have great sound quality and at least an IPX4 rating for sports use. I can't say how well each of those would fit your particular ear shape though - it's a matter of trial and error. These would all be good options as everyday earbuds as well. Alternatively if you prioritised sports use instead: Sennheiser's Sport earbuds offer wingtips for a secure fit and they also sound really good. These Jabra Elite 8 Active could also fit the bill (although would push you up to the $200 limit).

[@StructureMastery]

@@insidetechltd OK thank you very very much !

[@MikeAkerfeldt]

Thanks for the review. How is the volume though? I have different sets of Jabra earbuds with the loudest one being the Elite 4 active, but compared to other brands, Jabra is not even close on the volume.

[@insidetechltd]

It's hard to say really. I find these both get far too loud at max volume for listening. So I don't think there's any issue with the volume, nor any substantial difference from the Elite 4 Active

[@JFKaufmann]

Fantastic review, thank you for all the valuable information. After using many TWS, my number one priority has become comfort, so the Elite 10 seem like a very interesting option.

Were you able to lay sideways on a pillo with Linkbuds S? I wonder if it's possible with the Elite 10's also...

Though I've got no scale, no comparison on size and shape..

Great Review! I'm sure I want it for all-around (work, music and running) the question is does the 10 stay in your ear while running? or should I play it save and go for the 8?

Ok, I think I'll get a pair of the Elite 10, even though I am waiting for the Huawei Freebuds Pro 3 coming soon to replace my Freebuds Pro 2 which has been my daily driver unbeatable by any other buds.

What was the set you said were the champ? Couldn't quite make it out on the cover. What do you think the best ear buds for calls in noisy environment are? There are great over the head sets for that, but if I have to use them a lot, they get painful.

[@denbes]

I'm considering to upgrade to 8 Active from 65t 1st gen and was curious about 2 things: Can you use each of the earbuds independently or there's a master earpiece? How far are they standing out of the ear compared to 10? I sleep in headphones and this is critical point for me.

[@insidetechltd]

Yes you can use either side independently. The 10s only stick out a tiny amount more than the 8 Active. I don't think either are good choices for sleeping though

[@faelrsc]

I'm still sticking to the 85T elite model, which is excellent.

[@kalpavs5035]

Oh boy, I really hope Jabra fixes the mic quality in a future update. I myself am a Jabra fan (on the Elite 7 at the moment) but call quality can make or break an earbud, lets be honest; everyone uses earbuds to make calls and being on the receiving end of bad audio is always horrible! But, and i'm sure they will work on this especially since Jabra is a major company in the calling world, I would even go to say that's their main focus is in calling. At this point of time I'm jealous to not have one but will consider of purchasing the 10's around Black Friday/Cyber Monday or holiday season if there's a significant drop in price (which they usually will do). As always, excellent review and extremely informative! Thank you! PS. I miss your unboxing shorts 😂

[@insidetechltd]

You're right, Jabra's main focus is in calling. But maybe it wasn't for these particular earbuds 🤷‍♂️ Hopefully they'll release some software updates. Thanks a lot though! And good to know about the shorts. I don't get a lot of feedback on those, so that's interesting - i'll do some more in future! Should have one later today when my iPhone 15 Pro turns up!

I've had a pair of 75ts for 3 years or so. I also got a set of Beats studio buds, and my wife has Elite 7s. Nothing sounds as good as the 75t, their bass is just so much better. How to the 8s and 10s compare to the 75ts, knowing that the 75t's have exactly the sound I like.

[@internetjunkie9574]

Same here(Jabra Elite Active 75ts) about 3 years, although I find them to be just a bit to quiet for my liking, was curious how much of an upgrade the 10s would be. I'm sure with the bigger drivers the bass has to be better.

[@megamastah]

@@internetjunkie9574 agree that 75T could be a tad more loud. About the soundscape - I didn't test the Elite 10, but I'd presume the oval ear tips and semi-open construction would render them less bassy.

[@Irfan_ah777]

I owned Elite 75t for around 1.5 years and I have tried and heard both Elite 8 and 10. Elite 8 is too much bass for me (I am not a bass head) and the Elite 10's sound exceptional. They have a similar thump that was present in 75t whereas the bass of 8's is quite boomy and not thumpy

[@internetjunkie9574]

@Irfan_ah777 I also ended up snagging a pair of the Elite 10s recently, the bass is phenomenal, on certain songs it sounds like a couple 10s beautifuly responding in my ears. The overall sound is fantastic & a big upgrade from the 75ts IMO. As for the ANC it is incredible IMO, I do construction work & a lot of mowing to which these make it so much more tolerable. If anyone's reading this in consideration of buying a pair, pull the trigger & try them out!!

[@chrisgreen7725]

As you have them both, how do they perform outdoors in traffic or a windy day? 75Ts passively did an okay job. But with the open design, even with the ANC, can the 10s keep out the wind?

[@insidetechltd]

I did some testing for this ahead of the video but since there's a storm right now in the UK i'll take them out again tonight for some more testing and report back on my findings later today!

[@insidetechltd]

Traffic noise they're excellent with. As for wind, it's the same as with any pair of earbuds: the 'off' mode is better than 'ANC' mode for windy conditions. Any time you have the mics turned on, even if the wind noise rejection is really good, it's always going to be worse in the wind. I'd say they're fine, not especially good or bad in wind - but you'll probably want to turn off ANC in that instance. They passively block out a good amount (they're not exactly an 'open' design, it's like a hybrid semi/in-ear)

[@hu5tle-]

Don't be fooled. The 8's fit a lot more securely, but everyone's ears differ. I've tried them both and had to return the 10's because I kept having to fidget with them at the gym.

Thank you! Yes, could be a QC issue. 8 definitely doesn't seem right. Could also be a volume difference if the 8's were tested with a much louder volume, perhaps ANC was left on too...depends on how they tested 🤷

[@Gamer-xb1eo]

[@alialshammasi8695]

simple question, which one goes into your ear to the point of hearing the bass in your head? (and play EDM better?)?

Hello... Is ambient sound accessible for hearing impaired people? What is hearing sensitivity like?

[@insidetechltd]

It's accessible in the sense that everyone can use it, but it doesn't amplify sound in the way that a hearing aid would. It doesn't make your surroundings easier to hear than not wearing the earbuds at all

[@ManapuaMan187]

How are the base

[@ehoenig]

I have the Elite 8 active since 4 weeks. I dipped my Airpods Pro for them. During workouts I always lost the Airpods Pro; the funny thing is: the more I sweat, the better the Elite 8 active will stay in my ear. The coating seems to get sticky with sweat.

[@insidetechltd]

Yes, I believe that's part of the design. I find the same thing - ShakeGrip actually works pretty well!

[@samz593]

Thinking of upgrade from 7 active to 8 active, but look at the spec, 8 is slightly bigger, so can't decide yet

[@insidetechltd]

Why consider upgrading at all though?

[@amh4714]

I used to have the 75t active and are therefore inclined to get the elite 8 active because i actually like the round closed fit but very curious about the 10 pro due to better sounds and much bwtter design but how is that ovsl design? Does it feel like they are not secure and does it let wind in? I bike a lot so therefore would hate if the oval design lets wind in?

[@insidetechltd]

I personally find the fit is still very secure, even if it is slightly less so than the 8 Active. The design is more open so it's going to let more wind in than the 8 Active. Having said that I didn't find wind noise to be an issue with either one

[@Motivision1031]

I am using the Jabra Elite 10 , & like you, I too had a doubt regarding the wind noise, But after using it it feels better than my Jabra Elite Active 75t.

Trying to decide between the 8 or 10 as I work out but also do a lot of flying for work so then being secure in the ear and ANC is a big thing, If anyone’s got any feedback that would be wicked?

[@insidetechltd]

Really tough to say since everyone's ears are different but I think the 8 Active offer a slightly more secure fit, and the ANC difference isn't so massive either

[@baddison2005]

I'm looking for new earbuds for working out and running. I have yet to find earbuds (other than a pair I had several years ago that have wing tips but were not true wireless as they had a cable connecting the right/left earbuds) that securely stay in the ear and don't require readjusting every few minutes during a run or workout. My current pair, the Jabra Elite 75t Active, are ok but are not completely secure (they require readjustment in the ear every few minutes during workouts). Do the Elite 8 active have a much more secure fit compared to the Elite 75t Active? If so I might consider them. I really wish they would come out with a pair with wing tips as they provide a more secure fit.

[@insidetechltd]

The 8 Active fit is pretty comparable to the 75t Active really. Possible slightly better, but definitely not 'much more' secure. I'd also like to see a wing tip option

[@jessewood3196]

​@@insidetechltdThe old Jabra Elite Active 65t earbuds had little wings & they stay in my ear perfectly. I'm about to buy the new 8 active and am really hoping they will stay put during jump roping!

Which earbuds are best for wind noise ANC block? Jabra 10, Sony XM5 or Galaxy buds 2 pro?

[@insidetechltd]

I would say Jabra, especially since the latest update. You're still better off turning off ANC to avoid wind noise though

[@briandaa323]

Could you please test the call quality again with the new update roling out at the moment, which should massive improve call quality and remove background voices and noises?

[@insidetechltd]

I definitely will. I'm literally finishing up my earbuds awards video for 2024 and have already assigned the call quality finalists, already recorded samples from Jabra...and now this update 😅 I'll update all the results and leave a pinned comment for this video too

[@briandaa323]

@@insidetechltd I will be looking forward to it! I'm currently using the Poly Voyager Free and the Jabra Evolve2 buds, and I've been recording my calls with the news running in the background to see which performs best, and the are pretty equal over time I must say, but I'm looking for a headset that performs just 10% better so it can keep my colleagues out of my call when on the office 😅

[@insidetechltd]

Just finished another round of testing and, sadly, the update hasn't improved things a lot 😔 I think the isolation of your voice from louder background noise is perhaps a tiny bit better now, but not enough to have them rank even 1 place higher in my list. Unlike previous Jabra earbuds, they have a more aggressive background noise reduction, but it results in slightly distorting your voice. Older Jabra earbuds let in a bit more noise but they leave your voice sounding clearer and more natural (a bit louder too). So overall...the update might bring a small improvement, but ultimately doesn't change a lot

[@briandaa323]

Currently I'm using elite active 75t there is a lot of disturbance to opposite person while I'm on call, I need to upgrade I'm little bit confused whether to pick elite 8 or elite 10. I listen to music frequently and I need better call quality.

[@insidetechltd]

No obvious difference in the call quality but the Elite 10 have better sound. So I’d go for those

[@FarridM]

All very nice but my 75t's still hold the overall crown for sound and phone call quality. I own the elite 7 pro and if you don't have them sitting just right your voice sounds like you have something over your mouth when talking. I noticed that these models have poor phone call quality as well and I won't be buying another Jabra until they fix this feature. I'm not sure if they are still trying to perfect their bone induction technology here but it just isn't holding up to the competition.

[@MrLunetistul]

So, If I want a clear, crisp and with bass sound should I go for Elite 10 or 8 active?

[@insidetechltd]

Elite 10 - but it's fairly close!

[@santiago71280]

Hello Friend, what will be your recommendation between the Elite 7 active ($104) and the Elite 8 active ($159). do your think it worth the extra money and go for the E8A instead to get advantage of the sale price of the E7A. I am using them for everything, workout (running, weights), at the office for conference calls and at home for music/movies. I am open to other recommendations different of the ones I mentioned. TY for your help.

[@insidetechltd]

Even though there’s a nice price gap there, I would actually say to go for the 8 Active. There’s a really decent step up in sound quality and noise cancellation. Alternatively you could look at other brands - I’ve got plenty of earbud videos on the channel!

[@santiago71280]

[@insidetechltd]

Solid: yes. Perfect? No. There are some better earbuds out there for calls, but these are still pretty good i'd say. For how good the all-round performance is, i'm perfectly happy with the call performance

[@davidginsberg9104]

@@insidetechltd thanks. But which earbuds do you recommend instead to have a perfect experience for work ?

There are no perfect earbuds for work. You could try something with aggressive noise isolation if you plan to take calls in noisy work environments. 1More's EVO and the newer soundcore earbuds especially (like the Liberty 4) are very good for this

[@jay-miller]

I’m really bummed about the drop in mic quality. This is a huge miss as I use Jabras for listening and calls. I don’t think I could buy these knowing the dip in quality exists. And I’m a Jabra supporter

Yes, it's a real shame 😕

[@Dabby724]

the case for the elite 10 has the same ip rating as the Elite 8 Active according to the Jabra's website

[@insidetechltd]

Yes I saw they had updated this. I guess they just listed incorrect information before because it would make sense to be the same. It's annoying they changed this after I made the video though, so sorry about that! I'd double check with them if you want to make sure

Can you go for a run with the elite 10?

@@brandonfernandez3036 yes, I suspect that maybe the case. I often find there is minimal upgrade worthiness and people like throwing money at minimal gains.

I am waiting for the bose ultra next month but won't hold my breath but it does mean I continue to save money and keep the 75Ts.

LinkBuds S have superior call quality, better control features (e.g. quick attention and speak-to-chat) and better sound than the 8 Active. Otherwise the Jabra earbuds win. They're both far better than Buds 2 though - the only thing i'd say for Buds 2 is that they're quite comfortable

@insidetechltd ah yes good point. 👍

[@jasonMB999]

"Greater depth in the lower frequencies" , "these aren't bass heavy if anything the balance is even better (than the 8 active.)" this is contradictory, so which one has more bass exactly?

[@insidetechltd]

Those statements aren't contradictory. You can have a bass-heavy pair of earbuds because it's lacking in the mids and treble. You could then have another pair that offers a richer, fuller low end with a greater depth to the bass. But it might balance that with the mids and treble. So it offers both a greater depth with the bass response but also a more balanced overall sound profile. To answer your question though, the Elite 10 reproduces more bass frequencies.
