Great video, guys. One big feature in my opinion is Jaybird's ability to use one earbud, left OR right. The Jabra's is a set master/slave (Batman/Robin), so you must use the RIGHT earbud if you only want to use one (key useful feature for phone calls or exercise/working out when you primarily want to hear your environment while also listening to the earbud). Imagine being able to switch earbuds to either rest your ear on the one side, or to get extended listening by using one then the other.
Agree. I’m guessing now the Jabra Elite 7 probably has master master. I never liked the bass port on the 75t, it made the bass sound boomy and unnatural. I love the Jaybirds but I didn’t find the fit so good. I seem to be right in the middle of medium and large. Customisable controls on the Jaybirds is better because you have a button and can also tap them as another control.
Jaybird everytime! Now been waiting over 2 months for a replacement pair of Active Elite 75T that basically only lasted 2 months before the problems started.
I accidentally ran my Vista 1 series earbuds through the washer and dryer on high and I thought for sure they were done. That was 8 months ago and they still sound great.
Had my 65t's now for 18, months. Covered 1000's of miles with them in all weather's, they've even been through the washing machine (oops!). Bulletproof headphones!
I have the Active 75t, and they are a great value and performer. But I just bought the Vista 2's for their more secure fit. I have had issues with having to push the Jabras back into position to get best sound more and more frequently. Then I just did a running event where one bud went flying out of my ear near the finish line (I was reaching for a flag from a volunteer to carry over the finish - it was a Memorial Day event.) That prompted me to look for something more secure for running.
Initially I had similar slippage issues when doing vigorous exercise. After I switched to the Comply foam eartips, the fit was much tighter and the sound much better !
@CuriouStan. They are v similar in terms of function. But to a basshead like me, the 75t just sounds better. The bass is much tighter and hard hitting. The passive noise isolation itself is great. I hardly ever need to use the ANC. Most of all, it’s cheaper !
Yes, but they have so many issues about the case charging...Headaches and seems a common issue. I am returning one set to Amazon, so frustrating, o played till descharged and was happy. No way to recharge them off even hard reset, wireless charging, change cables etc... none is working. Now I ve bought the the Jabra elite 3 🤞which at the present offer is very tempting at Amazon! Some even says that sound better and sound is more natural. No ANC thought and only EQ presets, not customisable 😕. Well, I think I ll buy the 75t again and keep em both! I am not so tempted to the 85t, really.. Is all about budget really, we all know that.. Great channel smart review guys I browse many reviews channels before you but I like here, thanks.
Had the jabra elite active 75t for almost 2 years before I dropped on into the sink but luckily I had warranty at best buy. I swapped for the jaybird vista 2 and have had them for about 2 weeks. I'm returning and going back to the jabra elite active 75t. Cons of Vista 2 Uncomfortable in ears Sound sucks even after messing with eq Sound cancelling is horrible Absolutely hate them and I use to love the corded jaybirds Pros They stay in 🤷♂️ Jabra elite active 75t Cons None.... Pros Can run and sweat in them with no issues. Sound 💯 Comfortable 💯 Ease of use and buttons💯 You won't hear anything with noise cancelation Better call quality Did I mention way better Sound? My main reason for going back is Sound, Comfort, noise cancelation.
I've been using the Jabra 75t active for a couple of months. I like them, but don't love them. I may try the jaybirds when I upgrade again. My ears seems to be two different sizes on the inside so the right headphone like to fall out if I don't take the time to twist it in. The hear through feature is useful, and I use these all day at work.
I just got the Vista 2's and they work great with my Galaxy S10, but they suck with my Garmin Venu 2 due to a poor Bluetooth connection. When I try to listen to music outside, the connection is so bad that the music is unlistenable. I am currently working with Garmin to solve this issue. I truly believe that this is a Garmin issue and not Jaybird's because Garmin recently did a firmware update that ruined my original Vista 1's. If you look online, you will see a lot of people experiencing this problem. Beware on getting the Vista 2's if you plan on using them with a Garmin watch.
Jabras were great for me. Accidentally washed them in pants pockets and case didn’t make it. Buds were great for sound and fit…dual connection is great also. Nice review gents
Awesome review. 👍👍I will definitely go for the Jabra as my everday buds and a some activities. I was curious if you know of a solid good earbud with a lot of options that have the hooks that go over the ears? I have really funky ears. Anything besides the Power Beat Pros. Thanks for your time guys. Keep up the good work.
Hi Chris, these might be worth a look... ruclips.net/video/Wyu5rq72JsA/видео.html Aftershokz might be another option though the sounds isn't as full as the in-ears. JBL Endurance Peak II maybe worth considering as well.
I tried the 75t and had to send them back. For Jabra to claim these are fitness buds shows they don’t know what fitness buds are. You need at least some mechanism of locking them in your ear. Just making them ear-shaped will keep them in if you’re standing around, but running and jumping will loosen them over time. A real fitness bud does not loosen over time.
I had the original vista’s and I constantly had the air pressure problem and I couldn’t wear them more than 10 minutes. All sizes did the same thing, I may try the active 75T’s right now
Thank you, need an update for 2023 please. FYI found this brand: Rolfstone Nova Sport. So far so good for a budget pair and they have WINGTIPS! seriously confused why all earbuds do not have wingtips.
I have the Jabra and I have issues with them cutting out a lot and as well they do not fit my ears well and I have to continually keep pushing them into my ears. One bud fell out while I was bending over slightly on a railing. So I will be switching back to Jaybird. The cutting out is just so annoying when running.
That's weird cause I don't own jabras yet but my jaybirds take over 5 seconds to connect which wouldn't be too much of a problem but sometimes they don't connect and when they need to I have to keep them in the case for the 5 seconds and not to mention that they're are many connection issues. I'll be exchanging them for the jabras and heard they can be uncomfortable but some memory foam tips can fix it.
I’ve never had to replace my Jabras using the warranty. My Vistas lasted 3 months, replaced, and now having issues a month later for the warranty replacement pair. Both times ended up being a defective charging case.
Not to put people off the Jabra’s but I’ve had two pairs of elite active 75t fail on me after just over a year of use and also a pair of elite active 65t. All had the same issue with the right bud sound failing. In fairness I use them a lot…anywhere up to 4 hours per day. Currently waiting on a warrant return on the second pair🤷🏻♂️
Excellent Review. Great chemistry between two of you... I prefer Vistas in general because fit is incredible... They don't fall out even when I vigorously shake head side to side & up & down... When working out in gym o can be completely upside down if hanging from horizontal bar & doing situps... If working on a incline or decline bench they stay put. If laying on side or doing exercises where I'm raising and lowering head while one ear is facing floor, they don't come out... Cycling, they don't come out... I have 89 presets saved & like flexibility & ease of organizing presets on Vista vs Vista 2s... I like auto time off feature of Vista... Bluetooth range is incredible, more than several hundred feet. I think that's combination of phone having bluetooth 5.0... I've actually left my phone in gym & drove off with car and it wasn't until I was on road that I realized I lost connection & started looking for my phone in car & gym bag before I realized I left it at gym... I don't know about jabra but vista's are very very rugged & durable, especially Vista 2... My Vista 2 is scheduled to arrive in next couple of days... Got them at discount, plus there's a launch kit for those ordering it early from Jaybird... I've been told the Launch kit is free wireless charger with Jaybird logo... That's got to be worth $30 to $70, but it's included free until supplies Launch Kits set aside for promotion are gone... I Love Jaybirds & I'm heavily Biased... Had X2s, X3s, Tarah Pros, tried Run XT didn't like so returned, Vista & now Vista 2 in couple of days... Don't think Jzbras can be wireless charged... Do Jabra have magnetic case that grabs & holds earbuds in? Jaybird earbuds will not fall out of case... If you're really into sports I'd say Jaybirds are best... But it's obvious personal decision... Thank for sharing video...
How do you think the vista 2 are compared to Tarah Pro? I was very happy with the sound quality in Tarah Pro And also you wrote about cycling. With my Tarah Pro I had no problems. Then they broke and the shop didn't sell them anymore so I changed to beats powerbeats 4. Using them for cycling is super annoying because of wind noise. Do you hear any wind noise while cycling?
@@rasmusquaade2318 I wear skull cap under my helmet when cycling that is tapered... Comes down on my forehead up to my sunglssses... And over my ears and slightly below on back of my head So the Vistas were completely covered by my skull cap... So I didn't hear any noise whatsoever including no wind noise.... Because I couldn't hear traffic at all, I decided it wasn't safe... So I bought a JBL Clip 3 that has carabiner clip on one end... I loop the carabiners clip around button on shirt & have lanyard around collar of shirt that had clip on the end that I loop around carribiner for extra security to prevent from coming loose & falling. Its never come loose but I wear lanyard just same... I wear very special leggings & compression long sleeve tee that's a little loose and they are both made out of special materials that wick away moisture & perspiration & keep me dry... They keep me warm when cold or wet & cool when blistering hot... I use same clothing for cycling, hiking, climbing, even casual walks on road, sidewalks & trails... I also have full face mask that's also made of great material... Think of how blue men look when wearing full body suit exc8mine is in three pieces: full head/ face mask, long sleeve tee, full length compression leggings... And gloves... Cycling when hot, knuckles & fingers exposed when cold whole hand & fingers are covered... Walking, Hiking, wear gloves cover full hands... I tend to wear full face / head mask because don't have to worry about dust, bugs, other items in air when breathing & cycling hard... Same applies to hiking on trails that are dusty, insects flying around, etc... Haven't tried Vista 2 on bike yet but I think it might be ok under skull cap or full head / full face mask... The Vistas didn't have any ANC nor Surround sense so they didn't pass any ambient environmental noise through to ears... So long as have good seal between ear & earbuds, they were perfect... I suspect Vista 2 will be ok under skull cap or full head / face mask because it's layer between buds & wind... But I haven't tried it yet... I like Vista & Vista 2 infinitely more than Tarah Pro.... I don't like wires of any kind... I love True Wireless Earbuds... Didn't like proprietary charging cable with Tarah Pros either... I use Vistas & Vista 2 everywhere: Walking, Hiking, Cycling, Gym & Swimming ( breast stroke ) head strays above water.... Vista 2 haven't tried on bike yet Highly recommend just get a pair of Vista 2 from place that permits 30 day return, then see if they work for you when cycling... If not return them...
Great Review & New Subscriber.. Question: I’ve had the B&O e8 (gen1), but lost them, so I need new earbuds. Taking that into consideration, how would you rate the Vista 2’s vs the B&O e8 Sport? Thanks! 🇺🇸
I have the Jaybird Vista 1 for some years> recently had a crash in Mountainbike during a trail that broke my arm, lots of stuff on the bike, and the Jaybird didn`t even move. :) but their mics are almost useless. The only reason that I`m seeking an upgrade is this.
I actually just had to exchange the Jabra Elite Active 75t for the Jaybird Vista 2. I could not enjoy the Jabras, no matter what EQ setting I have it set to and the Jaybirds sounded great out of the box. The bass was either too much or when I turned it all the way down, it had some extended bass sound on songs I KNOW doesn't have that with any other headphones nor earbuds I had. Not event Vista 2 had the extended bass effect. The mids sounded very quiet and very hard to hear with the 75t but was flat and audible on the Vista 2s. Pretty much, the Elite Active 75t reminds me of the Beats by Dre series of headphones where the bass is overexaggerated. Some like that, and I consider myself a bass-y kind of person, but it's just too much bass for me. The Vista 2 reminds me of my current Sennheiser HD598 with it's flat frequency and with the EQ set to bass boosted on them. Just doesn't have the open air sound stage like the HD598s but understandable since these aren't open air earbuds. The Vista 2 is worth spending extra over the 75t for me. I only had the 75t for 24 hours before it I exchanged it because of how disappointed I was with the sound quality.
I watched and read lots of reviews before buying my Jaybird 1s. I discounted the Jabras for that reason; half testers love them and half hate them; I also need secure buds with tips or they just fall out. Thinking of upgrading to the new Jaybird 2s, but only really want them for the ambient noise pass-through.
@@RFN22 The Jaybirds are OK, but definitely need some tweaking. I eventually decided to upgrade to Bose sport earbuds for use in the gym (much better sound than the Jaybirds) and Aftershokz Aeropex for running and cycling outside. Very pleased with both.
@@RFN22 The Aeropex are not the best sounding, but more than good enough for running or cycling outside. What I love about them is that they let you hear what's going on around you, you can have a conversation with someone if you want to, and you hardly know you have them on! No chance of them falling out either, which always happens with earbuds to some extent. On the sound quality, I wasn't expecting much, but they far exceeded my expectations; it's only when you compare them to something excellent, like the Bose, that the lower end is limited. I wouldn't use anything else for outdoor sport now.
Doed anybody know if the Jaybird Vista 2 has a problem with disconnecting from Garmin Fenix watches? I had a pair of Jaybird's BlueBudX that I loved and they finally died. The only complaint I had was when going for a run with music loaded on my Garmin Fenix 6X the BlueBudX would disconnect from the watch about 15-20mins into the run. So I had to start running with my phone again because I like to run to music.
Hi Nick, Kieran, I'm looking for some earbuds for running, with microphone would be a great addition, as can use them occasionally for calls on home office :). I ordered Power Beats, but when tried them, was unable to put them on my ears :) I wear glasses so not sure if I could bear buds with hooks and glasses together :) Could you recommend something? I saw Nick's review of JLab Epic Air Sport ANC, looks good but not sure if could have the same problem as with Power beats :)
I've seen a handful of reviews mentioning problems with wind noise, even one review saying there was a "hurricane of wind noise" with the Jaybirds (Yikes!). Any notes with regards to that?
@@rasmusquaade2318 i got mine today :) for running, it is finde, but for cycling.... Sounds awfull. The wind is louder than the music. i am not shure if i will keep them. i like the design and asthetics but you can only pair one device and it is not possible to deactivate ANC. A little bit annoying.
I have the same thing with ANC - I dont know any much difference with ANC is on or OFF - as long as the seal is good on the buds - so - I don't need ANC at all - to me the Fit and being able to stay in my ears is way more important than ANC - Leaning toward the Jaybird vista 2 buds. Thanks for the info.
@@TheRunTesters thanks again for the review - waiting on some black friday deals to determine which one I get :) jaybird vista 2, jabra elite 7 , all intriguing - albeit the best set of earbuds I have ever own were the Bragi Dash Pro - if they were still in business I'd buy one of those again - mine are still working but would love another pair.
@@TheRunTesters yes, the Soundcores! I've never tried any of their stuff, and haven't touched Jaybird in years, but the fin is really calling me. It's not just head shaking and hairband antics I need to convince me, unfortunately I've discovered I'm a mouth breather, especially during intense exercise and wearing a mask, so stable fit really takes precedence for any buds for me. The little ridge of the Liberty Pros might work, but the fin on the Vistas seem most appropriate.
If Jabra would wise up and make their earbuds with fins on the back they would have a slam dunk! And that is the reason I had to return the Jabra's for Jaybirds they kept falling out of my ears. ….Wake up Jabra!!
Jaybird Vista 2 are un usable for anc and transparency when in any sort of windy conditions sou do like fn hurricane .. Vista 2 is garbage because of that... jabra active 75t are only 99.99 at best buy right now ordered them as backup tobest earbuds available today the soundcore liberty 3 pro
@@sharkz7902 I'd say they are equally or tad louder than Vista 2 just got ek last night listened a bit and totally impressed with the sound and the build of the active 75t I went with navy color and added pair of my spinfit cp360 eartips these are badass for 99.99 and anc is better than I expected along with the transparency ima put em thru the test today while at work but so far im thoroughly impressed .. don't have sound that the liberty 3 pro has but I wasn't expecting it too but I'd say they're possibly punchier bass and really are fantastic... transparency is Def better on these and 1 test I did was put windows down in car and turn anc and then transparency on while Goin down road.... absolutely no hurricane fn sounds or anything that the Vista 2 did I'd easily and I mean easily would take these over Vista 2

@@sharkz7902 if ya got the all black ya got the regular elite 75t cuz I'm pretty sure the active 75t dont come in that color if they had I'd have ordered em too buddy might wanna check that if ya wanted active version but even regular at 79.99 are a steal
the problem with that jaybirds is they straight up do not work with androids. Their own customer service even told me to return and choose a different option

when cold whole hand & fingers are covered...
Walking, Hiking, wear gloves cover full hands...
I tend to wear full face / head mask because don't have to worry about dust, bugs, other items in air when breathing & cycling hard...
Same applies to hiking on trails that are dusty, insects flying around, etc...
Haven't tried Vista 2 on bike yet but I think it might be ok under skull cap or full head / full face mask...
The Vistas didn't have any ANC nor Surround sense so they didn't pass any ambient environmental noise through to ears...
So long as have good seal between ear & earbuds, they were perfect...
I suspect Vista 2 will be ok under skull cap or full head / face mask because it's layer between buds & wind...
But I haven't tried it yet...
I like Vista & Vista 2 infinitely more than Tarah Pro....
I don't like wires of any kind...
I love True Wireless Earbuds...
Didn't like proprietary charging cable with Tarah Pros either...
I use Vistas & Vista 2 everywhere:
Walking, Hiking, Cycling, Gym & Swimming ( breast stroke ) head strays above water....
Vista 2 haven't tried on bike yet
Highly recommend just get a pair of Vista 2 from place that permits 30 day return, then see if they work for you when cycling...
If not return them...
Great Review & New Subscriber.. Question: I’ve had the B&O e8 (gen1), but lost them, so I need new earbuds. Taking that into consideration, how would you rate the Vista 2’s vs the B&O e8 Sport? Thanks! 🇺🇸
I have the Jaybird Vista 1 for some years> recently had a crash in Mountainbike during a trail that broke my arm, lots of stuff on the bike, and the Jaybird didn`t even move. :) but their mics are almost useless.
The only reason that I`m seeking an upgrade is this.
I actually just had to exchange the Jabra Elite Active 75t for the Jaybird Vista 2. I could not enjoy the Jabras, no matter what EQ setting I have it set to and the Jaybirds sounded great out of the box. The bass was either too much or when I turned it all the way down, it had some extended bass sound on songs I KNOW doesn't have that with any other headphones nor earbuds I had. Not event Vista 2 had the extended bass effect. The mids sounded very quiet and very hard to hear with the 75t but was flat and audible on the Vista 2s.
Pretty much, the Elite Active 75t reminds me of the Beats by Dre series of headphones where the bass is overexaggerated. Some like that, and I consider myself a bass-y kind of person, but it's just too much bass for me. The Vista 2 reminds me of my current Sennheiser HD598 with it's flat frequency and with the EQ set to bass boosted on them. Just doesn't have the open air sound stage like the HD598s but understandable since these aren't open air earbuds. The Vista 2 is worth spending extra over the 75t for me. I only had the 75t for 24 hours before it I exchanged it because of how disappointed I was with the sound quality.
I watched and read lots of reviews before buying my Jaybird 1s. I discounted the Jabras for that reason; half testers love them and half hate them; I also need secure buds with tips or they just fall out. Thinking of upgrading to the new Jaybird 2s, but only really want them for the ambient noise pass-through.
Jaybird sounding great out of the box? I think you have them mixed up lmao
@@RFN22 The Jaybirds are OK, but definitely need some tweaking. I eventually decided to upgrade to Bose sport earbuds for use in the gym (much better sound than the Jaybirds) and Aftershokz Aeropex for running and cycling outside. Very pleased with both.
@@st4331 definitely going to check those out I’m trying to find something with really good sound quality and that has a good fit for running
@@RFN22 The Aeropex are not the best sounding, but more than good enough for running or cycling outside. What I love about them is that they let you hear what's going on around you, you can have a conversation with someone if you want to, and you hardly know you have them on! No chance of them falling out either, which always happens with earbuds to some extent. On the sound quality, I wasn't expecting much, but they far exceeded my expectations; it's only when you compare them to something excellent, like the Bose, that the lower end is limited. I wouldn't use anything else for outdoor sport now.
Doed anybody know if the Jaybird Vista 2 has a problem with disconnecting from Garmin Fenix watches? I had a pair of Jaybird's BlueBudX that I loved and they finally died. The only complaint I had was when going for a run with music loaded on my Garmin Fenix 6X the BlueBudX would disconnect from the watch about 15-20mins into the run. So I had to start running with my phone again because I like to run to music.
Can anyone tell me if the anchorless ear buds stay in your ear well? I feel like it would be a pain in the ass.
Well! If I'm out running, it's because I don't want to talk to anyone. Bubble time in my world. LOL
Same here!
Hi Nick, Kieran, I'm looking for some earbuds for running, with microphone would be a great addition, as can use them occasionally for calls on home office :). I ordered Power Beats, but when tried them, was unable to put them on my ears :) I wear glasses so not sure if I could bear buds with hooks and glasses together :) Could you recommend something? I saw Nick's review of JLab Epic Air Sport ANC, looks good but not sure if could have the same problem as with Power beats :)
I recommend you jaybird vista or jaybird vista 2
Between the two, which ones are louder? Want some to blow my eardrums out at the gym.
I've seen a handful of reviews mentioning problems with wind noise, even one review saying there was a "hurricane of wind noise" with the Jaybirds (Yikes!). Any notes with regards to that?
I (Nick) think these are pretty good on that front, having tried other headphones lately that made me feel like I was in a wind tunnel!
@@TheRunTesters did you also try them while cycling? I have also read that there is some wind noise while cycling?
@@rasmusquaade2318 i got mine today :) for running, it is finde, but for cycling.... Sounds awfull. The wind is louder than the music. i am not shure if i will keep them. i like the design and asthetics but you can only pair one device and it is not possible to deactivate ANC. A little bit annoying.
I have the same thing with ANC - I dont know any much difference with ANC is on or OFF - as long as the seal is good on the buds - so - I don't need ANC at all - to me the Fit and being able to stay in my ears is way more important than ANC - Leaning toward the Jaybird vista 2 buds. Thanks for the info.
Hi Michael (Kieran here) glad it's not just me. Thought I was faulty!
@@TheRunTesters thanks again for the review - waiting on some black friday deals to determine which one I get :) jaybird vista 2, jabra elite 7 , all intriguing - albeit the best set of earbuds I have ever own were the Bragi Dash Pro - if they were still in business I'd buy one of those again - mine are still working but would love another pair.
European Dance Music is a whole other league of its own.
Any chance of a Vista 2 vs Liberty Pro 3 comparison?
Hey Paul, Mike here. If you're talking about the Anker Liberty Pro 3, I should be getting those in to test in soon, so can share my thoughts on them
@@TheRunTesters yes, the Soundcores! I've never tried any of their stuff, and haven't touched Jaybird in years, but the fin is really calling me. It's not just head shaking and hairband antics I need to convince me, unfortunately I've discovered I'm a mouth breather, especially during intense exercise and wearing a mask, so stable fit really takes precedence for any buds for me. The little ridge of the Liberty Pros might work, but the fin on the Vistas seem most appropriate.
If Jabra would wise up and make their earbuds with fins on the back they would have a slam dunk!
And that is the reason I had to return the Jabra's for Jaybirds they kept falling out of my ears. ….Wake up Jabra!!
It’s a fair point. Would seem sensible
Can we have a Jabra vs Boss vs Vista 2?
129 eur for Jabra 75t and 209 eur for Vista 2
Are the Jabras sweatproof?
Yes there even be ok 3m under water
Jabras would fall off from sweat. Doesn't have that ear support like vista
Bluetooth 5.0 in Jaybird it's a problem
Jaybird Vista 2 are un usable for anc and transparency when in any sort of windy conditions sou do like fn hurricane .. Vista 2 is garbage because of that... jabra active 75t are only 99.99 at best buy right now ordered them as backup tobest earbuds available today the soundcore liberty 3 pro
Are the active 75 louder than the jaybird vista? I have the vistas and i saw that discount for the active 75 at best buy.
@@sharkz7902 I'd say they are equally or tad louder than Vista 2 just got ek last night listened a bit and totally impressed with the sound and the build of the active 75t I went with navy color and added pair of my spinfit cp360 eartips these are badass for 99.99 and anc is better than I expected along with the transparency ima put em thru the test today while at work but so far im thoroughly impressed .. don't have sound that the liberty 3 pro has but I wasn't expecting it too but I'd say they're possibly punchier bass and really are fantastic... transparency is Def better on these and 1 test I did was put windows down in car and turn anc and then transparency on while Goin down road.... absolutely no hurricane fn sounds or anything that the Vista 2 did I'd easily and I mean easily would take these over Vista 2
@@wadec6799 good thing, i ordered the active 75 before they sell out quick, went with the all black. I have the vistas but i hear background noise a bit at the gym even on max settings on eq jaybird all. Always wanted to try out the jabra 75. Excited to pick them up today.
@@sharkz7902 if ya got the all black ya got the regular elite 75t cuz I'm pretty sure the active 75t dont come in that color if they had I'd have ordered em too buddy might wanna check that if ya wanted active version but even regular at 79.99 are a steal
@@wadec6799 wait really? just checked right now and i can confirm its the active 75t in black. They also come in mint and navy blue
HAKII Action
the problem with that jaybirds is they straight up do not work with androids. Their own customer service even told me to return and choose a different option

I honestly couldn't finish watching this video. Sound like noise. Just get straight to the point and stop with the rambling.
Thanks for watching some of it though Peoples Yemi.
Agreed
@@TheRunTesters I guess I could have been a little softer in my response. You have good information, but most just like the meat and potatoes and then other topics can come. Great content though
