Our Verdict
Jabra Elite 65t Truly Wireless
Apple AirPods Pro
While both sound very well-balanced and isolate a lot of noise, the Apple AirPods Pro will be better truly wireless earbuds for most people than the Jabra Elite 65t Truly Wireless. While the Jabra have more customization options on both Android and iOS, the Apple are more comfortable, and their ANC helps them isolate even more noise in the bass range, which is important when commuting.
