Our Verdict
Jabra Elite 65e Wireless
Sony WI-C600N Wireless
The Jabra Elite 65e Wireless are slightly better headphones than the Sony WI-C600N Sony C600N. Their earbud fit is more comfortable than the typical in-ear design of the Sonys. They also feel noticeably better-built and more durable. The ANC feature of the Elite 65e is also slightly better, and their microphone is noticeably clearer and better for calls. Additionally, you get more battery life with the Jabra. On the other hand, the Sony WI-C600N have a slightly better app and their default sound profile is better, although you can EQ both headphones to your liking. The Sony headphones also support NFC, but can’t connect to two devices like the Jabra.
