If you're looking for value and mainly plan to use earbuds for calls, meetings, or travel, the Jabra Elite 4 is a cost-effective choice with solid mic quality and excellent build. For an active lifestyle, both are suitable, but the Sennheiser offers bonus features like heart rate and temperature tracking. For immersive gaming, TV, and a premium audio experience, Sennheiser's lower latency and high-quality codecs outperform the Jabra, yet at a higher price. Consider battery life if you tend to use earbuds for long periods: Jabra offers 5.5 hours plus 21 in the case while Sennheiser offers 6 with 24 in the case. Sennheiser's earbuds are sweatproof and dustproof, and they provide active noise cancelling, which is great for noisy environments. Lastly, if you're into tech features, the Sennheiser has app integration, wireless charging, and ear detection, which the Jabra lacks. Give Feedback

"The Jabra Elite 4 is a good midrange option with solid isolation and aptX codec for Android. It sounds consumer friendly from the box and the app has some EQ to adjust to taste. Some included luxuries include multipoint, sidetone, and Spotify Tap"

Amelia Schwanke | January 2024
"We hadn't been expecting a new pair of dedicated sports buds but the surprise was nonetheless exciting. I got to try out the new buds at CES 2024 and while they have stayed true to delivering that "signature" Sennheiser sound, with a wide soundstage and strong sense of detail, it’s the extra wearable tech inside them that stands out to me against the best workout headphones."
