Smooth, mature sound, Compact and comfortable, Good battery life,
Lack dynamic and rhythmic expression, ANC can affect sound quality, Bettered by rivals,
In isolation, the Jabra Elite 85t fall into the ‘good not great' category. They have many strengths and a couple of fairly significant weaknesses. A bigger problem, though, is the quality and the sheer number of rivals - similar money buys you decent alte...
Long battery life, Wireless charging, Clear microphone
Poor noise seal limits ANC, Loose fit, Unreliable hear-through mode
The Jabra Elite 85t earbuds are a frustrating mis-step from a company that doesn't usually make them. Yes, on paper these have had a spec boost and added ANC, but none of that counts for much when the physical design lets the audio quality down so badly.M...

Great active noise-cancellation (ANC),Comfortable fit,Solid sound quality,Wireless charging
Bulkier than predecessors,Only IPX4 waterproofing
From a strong foundation, the Jabra Elite 85t make meaningful changes to evolve into a leading set of true wireless headphones. From the exterior, these 'buds don't have the most expensive-looking design and aren't the most eye-catching - but when it come...
Better-sounding options available, ANC not as thorough as rivals, Reduced IP rating,
Tonally they're neutral, and performance is fairly well balanced, clear and detailed. Listening to Elbow's Weather To Fly, the treble notes that open the track are rendered bright enough to be distinct and have some sparkle to their description.Travel dow...

Adjustable active noise cancellation, Elegant design, Great audio with impressive bass
Much bulkier than the 75t, Fit isn't perfect, Rather pricey
While they don't quite cut it like the Jabra Elite Active 75t buds do owing to a slightly bulkier design, the Elite 85t deliver impressive performance thanks to some great audio quality, effective noise cancellation and decent battery life. However, they'...
Abstract: As you compare different models, you'll see references to "adaptive" rather than "active" noise cancellation. This basically means that the otherwise active noise- canceling automatically adjusts-or can be adjusted with a control app-to accommodate enviro...

Bold, dynamic sound, Strong active noise cancellation, Deluxe design, Lots of personalization features via companion app, Robust spec sheet
Some bugs in the system, Battery life could be better
The Elite 85t is a great pair of noise-cancelling headphones that deserves recognition in the best-in-class conversation. Jabra’s ANC technology is an effective feedforward/feedback solution that blocks out ambient noise at such a high level. Sound qualit...

Great battery life, Excellent sound, Sound and controls are configurable using the Sound+ app, Eleven different levels of noise control, Open design said to reduce ear fatigue, Case can be charged wirelessly
The ANC is good, but there are better options for those who need total silence, The new design isn't quite as good for me as their predecessor (which are still available)
