Jabra's Elite 10 are its most comfortable and best-sounding wireless earbuds, and they do spatial audio too. Does that justify their price?
Jabra Elite 10 MSRP $249.00 Score Details DT Recommended Product “The Elite 10 are the comfiest, best-sounding Jabras so far.” Pros Cons Jabra’s latest flagship wireless earbuds, the Elite 10, have massive shoes to fill. They’re the official successor to the Elite 7 Pro, a feature-rich product that nailed the sweet spot of price versus performance.
Jabra has abandoned the Elite 7 Pro’s clamshell lid in favor of its original flip-top design. But thanks to a larger body-to-lid ratio, it’s even easier to open the lid one-handed. In the box, you get four sizes of eartips from which to choose — that’s up from the usual three sizes that Jabra has included in the past, a good decision considering that some people will need to use different sizes in each ear. Unfortunately, Jabra has removed the Fit Test feature in the Sound+ companion app that helped guide you to the eartip size offering the best fit.
The Elite 10’s multifunction buttons click with surgical precision. They require very little pressure, and yet inadvertent presses rarely happen. You can use them to control every function via the default gestures or you can pick your own using the app. Best of all, if you live in a place that experiences winter, physical buttons don’t require you to remove your gloves.
Jabra Elite 10: noise cancellation and transparency Noise cancellation is very good on the Elite 10. It reduces distracting sounds in a wide variety of conditions, but be wary of the language Jabra uses to describe it.
The most notable part of the Elite 10’s listening experience is the addition of Dolby Atmos processing for spatial audio. Like the AirPods Pro, the Elite 10 also have head-tracking sensors that can be used to give spatial audio an extra layer of realism by keeping some elements anchored in space, while the rest of the sound moves as you move your head.
The result is a perceptible drop in midrange to high frequencies — it sounds muddier than normal Dolby Atmos. You can get most of this clarity back by using the Sound+ app’s equalizer as yet another layer of adjustment, but keep in mind that this new EQ will still be applied when you switch back out of spatial mode.
