Which Jabra Elite 75t are better for you?

What does this mean for your purchase? Both the Jabra Elite 75t and the Jabra Elite Active 75t are not suitable for swimming. However, the Active version is a little more robust against water.

For most people, the Jabra Elite 75t* will be sufficient. The Jabra Elite Active 75t* are advertised by the manufacturer for your use in sports. The background here is sweating. In my opinion, the cheaper Jabra Elite 75t are also sufficient.

The even bigger model from Jabra are the Jabra Elite Sport*. Here you have a higher IP certification. This leaks at IP67. You can find more information in the table above. However, these are also not suitable for swimming.
