We purchased the Jabra Elite 85h so that our expert reviewer could thoroughly test and review them. Read on for our full product review.

In our busy modern lives, we crave simplicity, and alleviating even small inconveniences can help reduce the stress that weighs so heavily on our shoulders. The Jabra Elite 85H clearly understands this, and is designed to eliminate as much hassle from listening to music as possible.

Of course, you expect more than just usability from a headphone, and the 85H doesn’t disappoint in terms of audio quality, comfort, and advanced features. If you’re looking for excellent, hassle-free listening on the go, the Elite 85H might just be what you’re looking for.

What sets the Elite 85H apart from other headphones is their woven fabric exterior, which brings with it a variety of unique pros and cons. On the one hand, it’s striking and uniquely attractive, lending a matte look that would pair well with denim clothing, an aesthetic that avoids the pitfalls of shiny metal or plastic headphones. Combined with a sturdy, solid build quality, the 85H offer a reassuring solidity that proved more than skin deep during our extensive testing. They’re rated to IP52 standards, which means they should be able to shrug off dust with ease, but their water resistance isn’t quite as robust.
