If you prioritize active noise cancellation and seamless integration with Apple products, the Apple AirPods Pro would be a better choice, with high scores in comfort and noise isolation, and support for AAC codec which works well with Apple devices. They also offer wireless charging and slightly longer battery life in the buds themselves. On the other hand, if you're looking for something more suited to exercise, with higher durability and a more secure fit, the Jabra Elite Active 75t would suit you better; they also offer slightly better overall sound quality and are optimized for both Android and Apple devices, but they do not have active noise cancelling. Both options are similarly portable and provide an app with audio controls. The AirPods, however, do have a higher price compared to the Jabra, so your budget may influence your choice.

Sound Guys

Adam Molina | January 2023
"For just $50 USD more than the original model with the wireless charging case, this is definitely the pair of buds to get. The AirPods Pro (1st generation) sounds better than the originals and has a way better fit and active noise canceling to boot. If you have an iOS device, just get this."

Tom's Guide

Alex Bracetti | November 2022
"Audio is spacious and warm, delivering just the right amount of boom to kickstart your workouts without compromising the mids and highs. Battery life (both on a single charge and the charging case) is superior to all AirPods models. The extremely durable shell also reassures you that it’s going to take more than some severe environmental conditions to damage these buds."
