“That’s a trick that the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, Sennheiser True Momentum Wireless 2s, and Sony’s 1000XM3 buds are simply incapable of. (Id argue AirPods get a pass here since they can now automatically switch between Apple devices without you having to do anything, and if you own AirPods, you’re probably in that ecosystem. ) Multipoint works well on the 85t earbuds, seamlessly switching back and forth between your phone and PC or tablet based on what’s actively playing audio. It should be interesting to compare them to other premium noise-canceling models like Apple’s AirPods Pro, Sennheiser’s Momentum True Wireless 2 and Bose’s new QuietComfort Earbuds.”

After testing many different TWS earphones, Jabra has been a consistent high-performer in one category in particular which other headphone makers doesn’t seem…
