What is the Jabra Tour?

The Jabra Tour is the answer to several problems. It’s a Bluetooth 3.0 hands-free speakerphone that clips onto your car’s sun visor. It lets you make and receive calls, can act as a speaker for clearer GPS instructions and supports most phone’s voice control systems. It also supports two simultaneous Bluetooth connections, so you can pair more than one phone. That’s a lot of boxes ticked for £85.

Jabra Tour: Design & Setup

There’s nothing remarkable about the Jabra Tour’s design, but everything is as it needs to be. Volume controls flank each side of the bottom edge, there’s a call button at the top and a button on the silver ring in the middle activates your phone’s voice controls. It clips securely onto your sun visor, and there’s even a mic mute button on one side. It’s all very neat and tidy.

It’s incredibly easy to setup, too. Unlike many Bluetooth devices that rely on a variety of unintelligible flashing lights and noises to tell you things, the Jabra Tour has voice guidance. It confirms if you’re paired or not by announcing “Connected” or “Not Connected”; it tells you how much battery life in hours; it guides you through pairing with the device – it even tells you what code (0000) is if needed. It also announces the name of anyone calling, so you don’t have to have your phone in sight to decide if you want to take the call.

It takes all the stress and confusion out of using it, which is incredibly reassuring. You’re never left wondering whether it’s actually made a connection or not. SEE ALSO: iPhone 6 release date, news, rumours and price

Jabra Tour: Performance

The Jabra Tour makes a great first impression and builds on its great design when you begin using it.

Making and taking calls is straightforward – you can make calls using your phone’s voice recognition, and you can accept and reject calls with voice commands so you never have to take your hands off the wheel.

Call quality is excellent. The built-in 3-watt speaker is loud, clear and precise. There are two microphones inside the Jabra Tour that, combined with digital processing, ensure very good call quality at both ends. We’ve been using the Jabra Tour for weeks without any complaints from recipients no matter how noisy the cabin.

Indeed, the only time the mics really struggle is when trying to use a phone’s voice system (Siri on an iPhone 4S in this case) when travelling on the motorway. Here the higher road noise made more complicated actions, such as sending messages, too unreliable. It was still accurate enough to make calls, however, and at lower speeds we managed to perform most functions (and send text messages) with little trouble.

The final impressive point is the battery life. Jabra quotes up to 20 hours of talk time and 40 days (yes days) of standby time. It’s enough that you won’t need to charge it often, in fact we’ve yet to do so since we started using it. Moreover, while there is a physical power switch, the Jabra Tour automatically powers down when not in use and has a motion detector so it powers up again when you’re moving.

All told, the only criticism we can think of is that you can’t control music playback using the Jabra Tour (it doesn’t support the AVRCP standard), but that’s hardly a feature it needs. You could play music on it, but that’s not what it’s for. It handles calls admirably and is also a great addition if you rely on your phone for sat nav instructions.

Should I buy the Jabra Tour?

There are quite a few similar products on the market and the Jabra Tour is one of the more expensive, but it’s worth every penny.

It performs faultlessly, but the real kicker is how easy it is to use. It just gets out of the way so you don’t ever have to think about you’re doing. Provided you have a phone that has its own voice recognition system, which includes most iPhones and Android smartphones, it’s a great addition to your in-car setup.

An outstanding hands-free speakerphone that’s very, very hard to fault.

Jabra Drive Bluetooth speakerphone review

jabra tour vs drive

For those who don’t want a Bluetooth headset in their ear but still want or need to take calls in the car, the Jabra Drive speakerphone might be just the ticket.

As we have pointed out   before, Bluetooth hands free calling is required in many states – it is also the smartest way to use your Smartphone in the car. Headsets can be uncomfortable for some. If you are not worried about others in the car listening to your conversations, a Bluetooth speakerphone – like the Jabra Drive – might work well for you.  Read on for a full review.

Jabra Drive Bluetooth speakerphone

What’s in the box

The Jabra Drive comes with the speakerphone, a USB cable for connecting the Jabra Drive to the included car charger or to a PC or Mac for charging and a Quick start manual.

what's included

Pairing the Drive

When you first turn on the Drive, it will automatically enter pairing mode. On your HTC EVO 4G LTE or HTC One X or other Android device, just:

Go to your Bluetooth settings

  • Choose Scan for devices
  • Select the Jabra Drive from available device
  • If you are asked for a passcode – just input 0000.
  • For future pairings, just turn on and hold the Answer/End button for about 5 seconds and it will go into pairing mode.
  • You will hear the Jabra Drive say “connected” when the pairing is complete.

search for devices

The Jabra Drive will be connected as both a Phone audio device and a Media audio device on your Android phone. That means that you can also connect it to your GPS or MP3 player in addition to your phone.

Functionality

The Jabra is a pretty bare bones affair, but that’s not a bad thing – especially for something that is used in the car. the Jabra Drive clips onto your sun visor and can be moved to either side of this visor so that it is accessible to you.

  • Tap the Answer/End button to answer a call
  • Tap the Answer/End button while on a call to end the call
  • Tap the Volume button (+) to raise the volume
  • Tap the Volume button (-) to lower the volume

Voice dialing

Voice dialing on your Android phone is initiated by simply hold down the Answer/end button until you hear a beep.  The Jabra Drive will then say “Speak now.” Since the Jabra Drive simply uses your built in voice dialing, any command supported by your phone can be spoken into the headset.

voice dialing

Call quality

Call quality was really great with this speakerphone. It was loud, clear and I had to turn down the volume. The combination of sensitive microphones and built in noise cancelation made voice transmission very clear.

Callers on the other end said they could hear me and not road noise or much of anything else except my voice.

The added bonus to this speakerphone is that since you can pair multiple devices, you can have your GPS and your phone paired at the same time. Or, you can send your music via Bluetooth from another device as well. Sound quality when sending music to the Jabra Drive was not bad – certainly better than through a headset or the phone’s speaker. 

The wrap up 

I was pleasantly surprised and impressed by the Jabra Drive. It is priced right, it is easy to set up and use and, most importantly, it works well.  I also appreciate that there is a car  charger handy so that, unlike my Bluetooth headsets, I don't have to worry about running out of power.

Sometimes I find myself yelling when I use a speakerphone and I did not feel that urge when using this one. 

  • Easy to set up and use
  • Seems durable
  • Calls were clear
  • Music sounded pretty good when streamed through the speakerphone
  • No privacy if others are in the car
  • Lacks some of the more sophisticated tech in more expensive units

The verdict

The Jabra Drive is a very good, basic Bluetooth speakerphone. It is short on features, but is works well for taking calls and initiating voice dialing. The fact you can also stream music is an added plus.

Jabra TOUR – Bluetooth in-car Speakerphone Tested

Posted by Digital Reviews Network | Aug 11, 2017 | Audio / Visual | 0

Jabra TOUR – Bluetooth in-car Speakerphone Tested

I have a 2010 Ford Territory which has Bluetooth 1.0 which allows me to make calls but not play music through Bluetooth but I much prefer to use the Jabra TOUR which will do both.

Here is a quick review.

The TOUR is an elegant and small speakerphone that you clip onto your visor. It’s about half the size of its bigger brother, the Freeway which we reviewed earlier. It’s got all the basic functions for hands-free calling including a mute button which you probably will seldom use, volume buttons plus a physical button for answering, ending or re-dialling and a button for voice commands.

This last one will allow you to use Siri or android voice commands but there is also a set of built-in voice commands through which you can ask things like battery life and it will also take it through the pairing process. Pairing is very simple and up to 2 phones can be connected at the same time. The 3 Watt speaker is ample power for clearly hearing the calling party but for playing music with any fidelity it is not as good as the bigger Freeway which has multiple speakers and which can also route your music via an FM transmitter to the speaker system of your car. I listen to a lot of audiobooks and for that purpose the sound quality is perfectly fine.

JabraTOUR

Hallmark of all these Jabra in-car speakerphones is that they will switch on or off automatically when you enter your vehicle through a built-in motion sensor. That can be quite handy as long as you don’t hang around your car after you have exited the vehicle. The reason is that if you’re still within Bluetooth range when a call comes in you may not hear it because it is still connected to the speakerphone! It has happened to me quite a few times and I now have the habit of switching it on and off manually.

Jabra1

All in all the Jabra TOUR is a well-built, well-featured and a well-priced piece of kit at 130 bucks. In the retail packaging you will also find a car charger and USB cable and when charged you will have up to 20 hours of talk time or, with little use, you may be able to stretch the standby time to 2 months.

If you want to spend an extra 40 bucks you can spring for the Freeway which has more features and better sound quality. That unit is more than five years old now and I’m keen to see what Jabra is coming up with next for their top-of-the-line unit.

We will be one of the first sites to review it.

Jabra Drive - Review

jabra tour vs drive

For those who have never gotten used to the Bluetooth headsets and still need a hands-free solution for their Windows Phone, enter the Bluetooth Speakerphone. Jabra makes a nice assortment of speakerphones and today we turn our sights on to the Jabra Drive .

The Jabra Drive is a basic Bluetooth speakerphone that is solidly built, has just enough features to make it appealing and decent call quality. Moderately priced at $49.95, the Drive might be a good choice for those looking for a hands-free solution that doesn't have too many bells and whistles. To see how well the Drive performed, follow the break.

Design and features

jabra tour vs drive

The Drive is a uni-body designed speaker that uses a wide metal clip to fit securely to your car visor. Volume controls rest above the speaker with the noise cancelling microphone sitting in between the "-" and "+" buttons.

jabra tour vs drive

The large speaker doubles as a multi-function button and has a LED light to alert and confirm operations. To the right side of the Drive you will find the power button and micro-USB port. The overall size of the drive, when placed on the car's visor, is about the size of a deck of playing cards.

jabra tour vs drive

The Jabra Drive does support multiple connections, allowing you to stay connected to two active Bluetooth devices at the same time.

Performance

jabra tour vs drive

While the volume controls are independent, the remaining functions are controlled by the speaker/multifunction button. The speaker is slightly raised and hinged to create a button that is used to answer calls, reject calls, end calls, voice dialing, last number redial, and mute. Some of these features are device dependent.

The Jabra Drive does support music playback and voice navigation for some phones. The music or voice navigation should be automatic and mutes automatically on incoming calls. The Jabra Drive supported music playback nicely with the HTC HD7S and Samsung Focus. However, I wasn't able to get voice navigation to come through on the Drive using Garmin Streetpilot or Turn by Turn Navigation.  I'm not sure if this is an issue with the phones or the navigation software.

Call quality was really nice and the noise filtration features are amongst the best I've seen. In using the Drive at interstate speeds and with the radio in the background, the only sound picked up by the microphone was my voice. While the speaker is a touch smaller than other Bluetooth speakerphones, call volume was respectable.

Now for the bad or should I say, not so good. While the Drive has voice announcement to alert you that the battery is low or when your Windows Phone is connected, that is the only voice alerts the Drive has. The ringer is nice and loud but without voice caller ID you have to either a) take a chance on answering the phone or b) check caller ID from your phone. I've been using the Jabra Cruiser II for the past several months and having audible caller ID is hard to give up.

Overall Impression

The more I used the Jabra Drive, the more I liked it. Call quality was very good and the speakerphone didn't take up much room on the visor. However, I like to see who's calling before I answer the phone and the lack of caller ID on the Drive was a drawback for me. I was able to work around this limitation by placing my phone in an iGrip Phone Mount but it would have been nice to have audio caller ID. With the Drive having the ability to have audio alerts for connectivity and low battery, it may only be a software issue to add caller ID (hint, hint).

All in all, if you're looking for a basic BT speakerphone and can live without audible caller ID, the Jabra Drive is a decent choice. If you can't live without audible caller ID, look at the Jabra Cruiser instead.

You can find the Jabra Drive over at the WPCentral Accessory Store for $49.95.

The easiest in-car speakerphone on the market to-date, the Jabra DRIVE has style and is both easy-to-use and intuitive. It can connect to two mobile devices at a time and requires no setup, allowing drivers and passengers to stay in touch with family and friends while on the road and in compliance with hands-free driving laws.

Voice guidance talks you through as you pair it up with your mobile for the first time. After that, you just clip it onto your sun visor and it will connect automatically whenever you get into the car.

You can then talk freely on your mobile phone, with your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel. With the Jabra DRIVE, you don't even need to bother reaching for your phone when it rings. It's always at your fingertips, whenever you're on the road--just press the big friendly button on the in-car speakerphone to answer and enjoy crystal clear hands-free conversation.

Jabra Elite 10 review: Flagship noise-canceling earbuds are their best ever

Jabra elite 10 are a strong contender for best wireless earbuds.

Jabra Elite 10 in cream in charging case

Tom's Guide Verdict

The Elite 10 are Jabra’s finest high-performance buds to date with strong audio and noise cancelation leading the way.

Rich, dynamic, customizable sound

Powerful ANC

Superior head tracking technology

Jabra’s most luxe design since the Elite Active 75t

  • Call quality

Price:  $249 / £229 / AU$379 Colors:  Cream, cocoa, gloss black, matte black, titanium black Battery life (rated):  6 hours (ANC on); 8 hours (ANC off); 27 hours (ANC on w/charging case), 36 hours (ANC off w/charging case) Connectivity:  Bluetooth 5.3 (codec support: SBC, AAC) Durability:  Earbuds rated to IP57 Size:  0.8 x 0.7 x 1.1 inches (per bud); 1 x 1.8 x 2.6 inches (charging case) Weight:  0.2 ounces (per bud); 1.6 ounces (charging case)

The Jabra Elite 10 wireless noise-canceling earbuds rank among the best wireless earbuds . Although we've seen quality models from the brand before with the great-value Elite 3 to the sporty Elite 7 Active , neither model replicated the award-winning success of the 5-star Elite Active 75t . Sadly, that model was discontinued some time ago and after several attempts, the Elite 10 is a worthy successor and joins the Elite 8 Active as the company's newest models stirring things up among big-name rivals.

Jabra has stuffed as many upscale features as it could into a luxe Elite 10 design, including double the active noise cancelation , spatial audio with Dolby head tracking, seamless Bluetooth multipoint, and several settings that enhance usability on multiple ends. Regardless of their finicky call quality and spatial audio, the Elite 10 stand out as some of the best noise-canceling earbuds you can buy. Scroll down to see why.

Jabra Elite 10 review: Great sound and spatial audio support

Jabra Elite 10 in hand inside charging case with lid open

Let’s discuss the Elite 10’s default sound profile, which is neutral out of the box. Expect excellent frequency response with deep bass that makes contemporary tracks engaging, especially when listening via lossless and hi-res streaming platforms like Tidal — one of the best music streaming services we've heard. 

Upbeat R&B records like 112’s “Only You (Remix)” had a nice bop to them. The infectious bassline knocked hard without coming on too strong. Also, the group’s harmonizing and the jingly triangle effect in the background were highly transparent. Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid” maintained that same warm, articulate presentation. The reproduction of Ozzy Osbourne’s frenetic vocals was shockingly good, while the pounding drums and speedy strums on the bridge guitar solo had me headbanging at my work desk.

Jabra Elite 10 testing call quality

Listening with ANC on slightly increases bass, though you can personalize sound via Music Equalizer in the Sound+ app. You’re given two options: manually adjust frequencies to create your own sound profile or select from six well-engineered presets. The absent MySound feature is more effective for calibrating sound to your hearing. Luckily, you don’t need it since the Neutral preset produces a terrific mix of lows, mids, and highs. 

LE Audio is incorporated and SBC and AAC achieve crisp, low-latent audio transmission. However, the Elite 10 could have still benefited from aptX or LDAC codec support to enable the earbuds to deliver high-quality audio streams. 

Spatial Sound is the company’s 3D audio format powered by Dolby Atmos . Jabra needs to polish it up more. Some songs sounded immersive, while others sounded dull and tinny.

Jabra Elite 10 sound app

Most Dolby Atmos tracks on Apple Music were satisfying listens. Hello Yellow’s “Help Again” burst with vibrancy; the striking cymbals and vocoder rhymes enlivened the soundstage. Meanwhile, hip-hop songs like Slaughterhouse’s “Not Tonight” lacked amplification and clarity. The low-sounding vocals felt like I was hearing the group from the nosebleed section in a massive arena. 

The head motion detection on these buds is insanely precise.

Using Spatial Sound on Android devices required some adjustments. I often have the Fixed Spatial Audio feature set on my OnePlus 11 smartphone, which works with all headphones and earbuds. Having it on at the same time as Spatial Sound decreased sound quality. Bass levels went haywire on Outkast’s “Rosa Parks,” but limiting 3D audio to Jabra’s version cleaned up the low end and kept it boomy.

Dolby Atmos with head tracking is arguably the Elite 10’s best feature. The head motion detection on these buds is insanely precise. What I like most is that Jabra doesn’t make you take an ear-scanning test to use spatial audio like the Apple AirPods Pro 2 and Sony WF-1000XM5 models do.

Jabra Elite 10 review: Comfy design and sharp looks

Jabra Elite 10 showing single bud between finger tips against tropical vegetation background

Whereas the last Jabra flagship the Elite 7 Pro lacked the premium design of some of its predecessors, the all-new Elite 10 look and feel like a premium product. There’s something appealing about the teardrop shape, which also factors into comfort and fit (more on that in a bit). The glossy multifunctional button with laser-etched branding stands out from afar, and the buds’ smooth rubberized texture resembles suede. All color options are gorgeous, especially cocoa with its dark burgundy-like complexion. Furthermore, these buds come with a 2-year warranty and IP57 rating, making them better protected against dust and water than the AirPods Pro 2 and the Sony WF-1000XM5.

Jabra’s semi-open design doesn’t make the buds feel like they’re plugged. New oval EarGel tips sculpt perfectly to different ear shapes, while the curved cavity rests pleasantly on the concha. I wore the buds daily for 5-hours straight and didn’t experience any soreness. The slightest adjustment locked them in place for optimal stability.

The charging case shares similar design traits. Its soft-touch finish and sleek, compact shape complement the buds’ appearance. Even though it has no IP rating (only the Elite 8 Active case comes IP54 splash- and dust-resistant), this version is similarly sturdy, though the chic exterior is sensitive to dirt and scratches.

Jabra Elite 10 review: Solid active noise canceling

Jabra’s Advanced ANC technology is introduced on the Elite 10 and delivers 2x more noise cancelation than the company’s standard version. The Elite 7 Pro’s ANC was subpar compared to category titans like the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 and Sony WF-1000XM4 , but the Elite 10 are a major improvement that are capable of reducing nearly 90% of ambient noise. Advanced ANC silenced the construction work taking place outside and the shrieking sounds my intercom system made during fire alarm tests. Common distractions such as cat meows, household appliances, and high-volume TVs didn’t bother me either. 

The ANC technology was most effective outside. Walks to the grocery store were peacefully quiet. I blocked out the bratty tweens complaining about their Starbucks coffee orders, as well as loud portable speakers and trains passing through nearby.

HearThrough remains the best transparency mode out there. Jabra’s six-mic array captures vocals clearly, which made chatting with the missus from across the living room convenient. My awareness was high when strolling around the neighborhood at night; I could hear oncoming traffic from a block away.

Jabra Elite 10 review: Battery life

Jabra Elite 10 playing music on phone

The Elite 10 offer up to 6 hours playtime with ANC on, which is pretty standard. Turning it off extends battery life to 8 hours. Keep in mind that high volume and spatial audio reduces playtimes by about 2 hours. This isn’t far off from what the AirPods Pro 2 give (around 5.5 to 7 hours), but it’s noticeably lower than the WF-1000XM5 (around 8 to 12 hours). I got about 3 days of moderate use (2.5 hours daily) before recharging. 

As far as the wireless charging case goes, it can hold up to 36 hours, and a 5-minute quick charge generates 1 hour of listening time.

Jabra Elite 10 review: Downgraded call quality

Jabra Elite 10 close up of earbuds in charging case with lid open

According to Jabra, the Elite 10’s mics can distinguish between background noise and the caller’s speaking voice, while employing noise-reduction algorithms to adaptively block out noise. This isn’t entirely true. The buds do an impressive job of emphasizing vocal input. Using the Call Experience feature in the Sound+ app can also increase how loud you sound and add more bass or treble to calls. If only the mics and noise-canceling technology didn’t struggle to minimize background noise. My wife couldn’t make out much of what I said when walking home; all the ruckus around me was transparent on her end. Even slight summer breezes reduced clarity. 

The Elite 10 work much better for indoor calls. My wife applauded how loud and clear I sounded, though that feedback mostly applied when speaking in quiet settings.

Jabra Elite 10 review: Verdict

The Jabra Elite 10 are the company's most stylish-looking model in a long time and see the company rank alongside some of the best wireless earbuds around. ANC and sound are superb, while battery life is pretty standard compared to most rival noise-canceling earbuds. Even hallmarks I didn’t touch on like connectivity hit their mark; Bluetooth 5.3 instantly pairs to recognized devices and multipoint technology effortlessly connects the buds to two media sources simultaneously.

What keeps these buds from receiving a higher score is their inconsistent spatial audio performance and mediocre call quality. It’s possible that a software update could fix these performance gripes, and we have it on good authority that one could be around the corner. 

Nonetheless, the Elite 10 is the upgrade we’ve been clamoring for and deserves serious consideration from anyone looking for great audio handling in a comfy and handsome package. At the price, they're a strong alternative to the AirPods Pro 2, while being platform agnostic and undercutting Sony's flagship noise-canceling earbuds too.

Jabra Freeway Review

In past years, the jabra freeway was my pick for best bluetooth car kit because of the superior hands-free call quality..

jabra tour vs drive

Early Verdict

The Jabra Freeway is a huge Bluetooth speakerphone covering most of the sun visor. The audio performance isn't great for music streaming and the cost is prohibitive compared to the best Bluetooth car kits.

It has an FM transmitter.

It's very expensive.

Why you can trust Top Ten Reviews Our expert reviewers spend hours testing and comparing products and services so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about how we test .

In past years, the Jabra Freeway was my pick for best Bluetooth car kit because of the superior hands-free call quality. With exceptional HD microphones, advanced noise cancellation and three speakers, it provides better call quality on both sides of the conversation than any other Bluetooth car kit I've reviewed. However, recent studies show hands-free calling is as unsafe as hands-full calling. It is distracted driving. Neither option is safe. So, with this in mind, I shifted the emphasis from hands-free call quality to audio performance – streaming music from your favorite apps through your car stereo. The Freeway is certainly capable of this, especially with the FM transmitter, but it's not better than the far more affordable options.

The audio performance of the Jabra Freeway is disappointing, as it received a C- for clarity and a D+ for strength. The three built-in speakers had a significant amount of distortion, even at three-fourths volume. It's clear they aren't made for high-fidelity music, but for voices. In addition, the maximum volume reached just 86 dB. It was better than the Jabra Tour , but far below what other Bluetooth car kits achieved in the same test.

It has an FM transmitter and this allows you to stream music through your radio. The quality of the signal was better than the other FM transmitters I tested, including the Nulaxy KM18 – my pick for the best Bluetooth FM transmitter. However, it's not a lot better and still has a significant amount of noise in the signal, especially during quiet moments. But most importantly, at $100, it's more than $80 more expensive. The audio performance would need to be on-par with high-fidelity audio to justify this price difference.

Despite my reluctance to support hands-free calling, I still performed call quality tests. This is where the Freeway excels, receiving an A+ grade. You shouldn't take calls when you're operating a vehicle, but if you do, this is the best option. The combination of the three speakers and the multiple microphones placed near your head, via sun visor, makes for a clear conversation on both sides. When you make a call with the AUX-in and FM transmitters, the caller's voice is amplified over the car's stereo. This has a tendency to cause echo feedback, as the device's microphone picks up the amplified voice over your own.

As with all of Jabra's Bluetooth devices, the Freeway is very easy to use and very quick to pair. A voice guidance system walks you through the process. And the controls are clearly labeled. The only issue with concern to functionality is the size. It covers most of the sun visor and the clip can cover the mirror. The thick profile makes it feel out of place.

The Jabra Freeway is an expensive in-car Bluetooth speakerphone. If hands-free calling is your priority, it's the best option. But as a technology bridge for streaming music, it's not a great option. Even with an FM transmitter, it's not worth the $100 price.

jabra tour vs drive

  • This is a great bluetooth speaker for cars that aren't equipped with one.
  • Very long battery life. My conversations are few and brief when I'm driving. The device tells me I have 20 hours worth of talk time before I have to recharge. That's really amazing.
  • Strongly recommended to anyone who needs a Bluetooth speakerphone — or who has a dead car stereo.
  • Super easy to sync with my phone and use the device.
  • This is a great car speakerphone. Pairing could not have been simpler. I did it without looking at the directions, and the Tour found my IPhone quickly.
  • The battery lasted me all week on a single charge while using it about 1-2 hours every day.
  • I tried to use the built-in speaker since FM was not working well. The built-in speaker tends to work a bit better, but the sound quality itself sounds like a tin can. It almost sounds like its echoing.
  • I really like this hands-free unit. It pairs great with my Windows phone (no giggles please). The windows software will read incoming text messages and generally handles the bluetooth connection well.
  • Once you've synced your phone for the first time, the unit syncs automatically when turned on or when your phone comes in range (most of the time).
  • Over all, I am very pleased. I spend a lot of time in my vehicle making calls and listening to Sirius. This product is much better than the previous BT devices I've used; to include the Himbot HBO1 and LG 750 ear buds.
  • It's large & clips nicely on my visor. Right above where I speak.
  • The metal clip for the sun-visor needs to be re-designed, it is too big, I think, and much too stiff. It makes deep marks in my sun-visor's upholstry. Other than the clip it is prefect.
  • A little bigger than expected, but it has to be that size to fit the speaker and buttons that aren't too small to press.
  • Very good quality for the price. Considering the size, the sound is very good.
  • Product size is great, sound is awesome. I will buy one for myself.
  • The Roadster 2 is very compact and lightweight, but packs a much higher punch in loudness and clarity I did not expect from its size.
  • The size was way smaller than I was expecting for some reason. It is really about the size of a large garage door opener.
  • It is small (about the size of a deck of cards) which is good because my visor mirror isn't in the way of the clip.
  • At first let me say that that thisis product is nowhere as it is pictured. It is about the size of a folded wallet...thank goodness.
  • It's about the size of a cell phone. It fits nicely and securely onto the visor.
  • Operating Range
  • Charging Time
  • Voice Control
  • Voice Guidance
  • Spoken Caller ID
  • Playback Control
  • FM Transmitter
  • My favorite feature: It wakes up from sleep mode automatically when I enter the car. No need to switch the device on or off or re-synch every time you get in the car. It's as close to a factory feature in my car as I can imagine.
  • The location services feature has an option to scan for bluetooth devices to aid in determining location.
  • My favorite feature is the auto-off and motion sensitive auto-on. That means that I basically don't need to touch the TOUR, or even remember it's there, when I enter or exit the car.
  • If you disconnect the announcements it disables all talking features. Commands like ‘answer’ or asking for a status won’t work. You’ve effectively told it not to talk any more. iPhone’s Siri or Android commands will still work though.
  • Voice recognition works well - except when trying to call wife at work... hmmm.
  • The recorded voice tells you the station the device is using (which is typical), but if you hold a volume button down, the unit will automatically scan the FM spectrum until it finds an unused frequency, then announce the channel.
  • Launching Phone Commands! This was by far the most annoying part of the Jabra that worked very poorly.
  • The FM tuning feature on both seem to work about the same, which is to say, not greatest. I'm in the Chicago area and it's hard to find blank frequencies that work consistently.
  • The FM transmitter feature, LOVE! I can use the car speakers to hear my calls OR I normally use it to play music from apps on my phone.
  • There are a lot of great features that have been commented on by others, like auto locating free radio bands, if you use the FM transmitter.

And on the other hand, the JBL Tour Pro 2 emerges as a contender that promises to redefine what we expect from sound quality and durability. Now, this article dives deep into the core of this clash, comparing and contrasting to help you making the ultimate decision on whose side are you on.

What's The Difference?

Jabra Elite 10

Surprisingly, there's hardly any price difference between the Jabra Elite 10 and the JBL Tour Pro 2. The Jabra Elite 10 is priced at US$249.99, while the JBL Tour Pro 2 is just a little bit cheaper, coming in at US$249.95 which is just a four-cent difference!

JBL Tour Pro 2

The Jabra Elite 10 and JBL Tour Pro 2 earbuds differ significantly in terms of design. While the former boasts a sleek, minimalistic look with a *matte* finish that prevents smudging, the latter features a glossy exterior that is more prone to fingerprints. Additionally, the Elite 10's ear tips are angled for maximum comfort and stability during prolonged use, while the Tour Pro 2 comes with adjustable wingtips that provide extra support and prevent slippage. The Jabra Elite 10 and JBL Tour Pro 2 have their own unique cases . The Elite 10's case is compact and has a smooth finish, making it easy to slip in your pocket or purse. It also has a magnetic closure that keeps the earbuds securely in place when not in use. On the other hand, the Tour Pro 2's case is slightly larger and bulkier, but it offers more protection for your earbuds due to its hardshell exterior. It also has a convenient LED light that displays the battery level of both the earbuds and case when opened. Both cases support wireless charging, which means you can charge them up by simply placing them on a Qi-certified charging pad. Additionally, the Elite 10's case has a USB-C port for wired charging while the Tour Pro 2 uses micro-USB.

Audio Quality & Features

Jabra Elite 10

When it comes to audio quality, both the Jabra Elite 10 and JBL Tour Pro 2 are exceptional in their own right. The Jabra Elite 10 and JBL Tour Pro 2 are both packed with smart and digital features as well that serve to a wide range of users. One standout example within the Elite 10 is its MySound+ app, allowing you to customize your listening experience with an equalizer and presets that match your tastes. With this feature, you can easily adjust the levels of bass, treble, and midrange frequencies to suit your preference. On the other hand, the Tour Pro 2 promotes a TalkThru feature that lowers the volume and amplifies ambient sound when you need to have a conversation without removing your earbuds.. Furthermore, the JBL Tour Pro 2 also offers an immersive soundstage that will transport you right into the middle of your favorite concert hall. Its advanced noise-cancellation technology ensures that nothing interferes with your listening experience, allowing for maximum concentration on your music or podcast. But, it's not the end! The Jabra Elite 10 shows off an impressive transparency mode as well which allows you to switch between Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) and HearThrough modes using a single press on the left earpiece. Meanwhile, the JBL Tour Pro 2 offers an IPX4 water-resistance rating, making it perfect for those sweaty workout sessions or unexpected downpours. Both earbuds also present hands-free calling with their built-in 6-mic array that ensures crystal-clear calls even in windy conditions. 

Battery Life

JBL Tour Pro 2

The Jabra Elite 10 provides up to 7 hours of playback time on a single charge, with an additional 3 charges from its compact charging case. That gives you a total of 28 hours of uninterrupted listening pleasure, which is enough time to binge-watch your favourite TV series or have a long-haul flight without worrying about running out of battery. On the other hand, the JBL Tour Pro 2 offers an similar battery life of up to 8 hours on a single charge, with an additional 24 hours from its charging case. That means you can go for days without having to plug in your earbuds and still get high-quality sound. And there's more! Both earbuds come with a fast charging feature. Jabra Elite 10 is attributed with fast charging capability, where just ten minutes of charging can give you one hour of playtime. Meanwhile, The JBL Tour Pro 2 also offers quick charging, but with a slightly longer duration at fifteen minutes for one hour of playback.

Jabra Elite 10 vs JBL Tour Pro 2

Jabra Elite 10 vs JBL Tour Pro 2

As we delve deeper into the intricacies of the Jabra Elite 10 and JBL Tour Pro 2, it's important to take a look at their respective drawbacks too. Starting with the Jabra Elite 10, one minor drawback is while the transparency mode is a great feature, some users have reported that it doesn't work as well as expected in noisy environments. Similar with the mentioned disadvantage, it is also mentioned that the voice-calling performance could be slightly better following by the noise-cancelling feature that is claimed not as strong as competitors. The last issue is its dependence on the built-in app, which could be a disadvantage for users who prefer a more flexible or customizable solution. On the other hand, while the JBL Tour Pro 2 boasts an impressive IPX4 water-resistance rating, it may not be the optimal choice for all users due to certain limitations or preference related to its form. Another potential limitation of the model is its lack of support for high-resolution audio codecs, which may disappoint users seeking the highest level of audio quality.
