Best noise reducing headphones I don’t love the ones I bought

do you want headphones/earphones or earplugs? loops are earplugs, they have different intensity levels based on the model and they work well for what they are, but they only filter noise, don't block it completely if you want to actually block out all sounds you want noise cancelling, which you won'

What’s something you bought (under $300) that noticeably improved your quality of life and you actually use every day?

good quality earbuds with active noise cancellation (anc). years ago my first anc buds were from tozo. they were honestly decent. since then, i've move from apple airpod pros (tried a couple of generations) to bose quietcomfort earbuds (also a couple of generations). finally to jabra elite active 8

I analyzed 1 year of wireless earbuds recommendations on Reddit (Nov 2024–2025). These are the top 25 (r/Earbuds vs all subreddits)

My Jabra Elite 8 Active Gen 2s are absolutely incredible. Check every box for me. I'm devastated that they've stopped making earbuds.

Best non-Jabra earbuds similar to Elite 8 Active (under $130)?

Jabra needs to un-cancel their line. elite 8 active gen II are what I always reach for. Have AirPods Pro II and WF-XM5’s. Nothing fits as well, has better anc, has better battery, or is waterproof like my jabras. I should have bought 2 at the end cause I think it’ll be a couple years till someone ca

The best headphones and earbuds for running that you love the most today?

Jabra Elite 8 Active. Love them. Have Shokz, Elite 4 Active (got as I went on holiday without my Eilte 8s) AirPod Pros, Oakley Vanguards and the Elites are still the best for everyday running. I do like my vanguards and the sound is nice too, and it’s 3 things in 1, but not useful on the treadmill.

My dear 5yr old Elite Active 75t earbuds are dying... Now what?

Dead serious, buy some lightly used Elite 8 actives on eBay. Or gen 2 if you can find it but gen 2 is often going for more than they retailed for. because the market knows they’ll never be topped. Jabra casually dropped the 2 best earbud models of all time then left the whole industry.

In-Ear Kopfhörer

Nimm nicht die Jabra elite 8 active. Hab die gekauft, weil sie wasserdicht sind und der Sound, telefonieren etc ist gut, aber das aNC unterirdisch. Also im Grunde nicht existent.

Xm5 or Momentum 4?

Sry to point this out to you but its quite retarded to use over-ear headphones when doing high intensity work-out like running, weight Lifting etc, mostly bc they will be ruined quickly & 2ndly bc they're expensive to replace once they fail/break. None of them are sweat proof & they're bulky when do

What's your biggest tech regret?

Putting all my content on a Western Digital 320 GB spinning hard drive. When this drive suddenly died on me lost all my music, books and movies. Buying the Jabra Elite Active 65T. Bought these buds for working out. Does not stay in my ear when doing my HIIT routine. Fell for it a few years later aga
