AS the current owner of a pair of Jabra Elite 5 earbuds, I was more than curious when I was offered an early chance to try out the newly-released Jabra Elite 4. As someone who carries my earbuds everywhere, I was very interested to see what it had to offer.
The Elite 4 is meant to sit in between the entry-level Elite 3, and the premium Elite 5. But after spending some time with it, I don’t believe that it is a downgrade in any way from the Elite 5.
In fact, there were some instances where I felt that the Elite 4 surpassed the Elite 5 in performance.
Setting up the Elite 4 is easy, especially if you already have downloaded Jabra’s Sound+ app, which launches a tutorial on how to calibrate the device’s audio levels to suit your preferences. The controls are also the same: press the right earbud to play or pause music, and to answer phone calls; press the left earbud to turn on ANC (active noise cancellation). Android users will also be able to use Spotify Tap playback.
