Jabra is updating its Elite true wireless earbud lineup. They recently announced the Elite 8 Active Gen 2 and the Elite 10 Gen 2, the last of the Jabra Elite lineup.
The Jabra Elite 8 active Gen 2 and Elite 10 Gen 2 earbuds come with a few enhancements, including an LE Audio smart case, enhanced spatial sound powered by Dolby Atmos, and enhanced Natural HearThrough for better awareness outdoors.
While better active noise cancelation and Dolby Atmos-powered sound are great, it’s pretty cool that you can use your wireless earbuds on a plane by using the charging case (and cable) as a wireless transmitter.
The Elite 8 Active Gen 2 earbuds are for active lifestyle users with an IP68 rating, while the Elite 10 Gen 2 earbuds have an IP57 rating.
