Jabra’s latest addition to its award-winning compact true wireless earbuds portfolio hits the Philippine market this 2020 holiday season with the Jabra Elite 85t.

One of the smallest earbuds that offers Advanced Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)TM, the Elite 85t is built on Jabra’s innovative track record and does not compromise on discreet design, the user’s comfort, the overall quality of calls or music experience.

“At Jabra we engineer products for purpose and today we are proud to show that our commitment to ANC is no exception. Our users today are looking for great things in small packages, so we are thrilled to offer the Jabra Elite 85t which sports our best-in-class ANC in a very compact and sleek design,” states René Svendsen-Tune, CEO at Jabra.

“We are also excited to take our current Jabra users on the ANC journey with us with a free upgrade from their existing Elite 75t products – leading the charge as the first global brand to execute this over-the-air update. For us, ANC now means ‘Accept No Compromise’!” he proudly announced.

Elite 85t with Jabra Advanced ANCTM

The Jabra Elite 85t is engineered to defy the boundaries of how much noise can be removed in a set of true wireless earbuds. Featuring Jabra’s most advanced and powerful ANC technology, its dual chipset delivers strong ANC capability as well as optimal sound processing. 

Users can create their own private, quiet space and fully control what they hear in their surroundings through HearThrough (Jabra’s transparency mode). The flexibility of the Jabra Advanced ANC goes beyond an on/off solution as it is adjustable with a dual slider from full ANC to full HearThrough, and anywhere in between -- enabling Jabra Elite 85t to offer a more personalized experience that puts the user in control of their surroundings.

Optimal call quality 

The new Jabra Elite 85t earbuds bring outstanding call quality for both the user and the person on the other end, with the 6-mic technology (three on each ear, two on the outside, one on the inside). Improved wind noise protection enables great calls anywhere. Microphones inside and outside the earbuds deliver improved noise cancellation, filtering out more noise across all frequencies. 

Semi-open design

The Elite 85t puts extra focus on natural sound performance and limited occlusion (blockage/closure) which are achieved through its semi-open design and multiple ANC microphones.

The 12mm speakers allow the Jabra Elite 85t to produce a big sound and powerful bass, while still enhancing comfort and relieving ear pressure with its semi-open design. Jabra has also adapted the ear gels to an oval shape providing a better sealing in the ear. This means the tower of the Elite 85t does not sit as deeply within the ear, giving users a more comfortable earbud, while maintaining a very secure fit. 

The Elite 85t provides up to 5.5 hours of listening with ANC on, which extends to 25 hours with the charging case with ANC on and 31 hours with ANC off. 

Charging Convenience

For the first time ever, Jabra is offering a product in its well-reviewed Jabra Elite series with wireless charging capabilities. The Jabra Elite 85t offers users the ultimate charging convenience, as it is Qi-certified and is compatible with all Qi wireless chargers.

Pricing and Availability

The Elite 85t will be available in select retailers and e-Commerce partners such as Lazada and Shopee starting December 2020, at PHP 11,999. The earbuds will be available in Titanium/Black this December, whereas Gold/Beige, Black and Grey will be in the market from Q1 2021.
