Our Verdict
Jabra Elite 75t Truly Wireless
Apple AirPods (3rd generation) Truly Wireless
The Jabra Elite 75t Truly Wireless are better earbuds than the Apple AirPods (3rd generation) for most purposes. The Jabra have a more comfortable fit, better onboard controls, significantly better noise isolation, and better overall mic performance. Their app also includes a graphic EQ for sound customization. On the other hand, the Apple have an open design that some may prefer. Their case also holds more extra charges, and you can use one earbud at once.
