Deal Details
Jabra has a 35% coupon (JABRASAVE) to drop these down to 162.49, with free shipping.

I'm wavering on whether to buy these or not, rtings.com has them as their best "Upper Mid-Range Bluetooth Earbuds"

Looks like the Venture X card has 3% back at the Jabra store too, makes it a tiny bit slicker.

I've been a die hard Jabra fan since my 65T Actives, including 75T Actives, 85s, and Elite 8. Every review I read for the new version talked about how great they were for calls, even in windy conditions, and every time I fell for it. Never again. Maybe you don't care about call quality and people being able to hear you in noisy conditions, but Jabra has failed miserably every single time I've tried. Across 6 different pairs of Jabras, they are completely outdone by the wind noise of a slight breeze. I can't use them for calls if I'm anywhere but a quiet room, god forbid I try to talk while walking my dog outside, or taking a call on the walk into the office.

I finally caved a few weeks ago and grabbed a pair of AirPod Pros on sale from Costco and it's hard not to use a string of expletives to explain my amazement at just how f*cking good the noise cancellation is and, much more importantly, how unbelievable the voice isolation is. I can hold a normal conversation practically anywhere and people don't realize there's noise in the background.

I can't compare them to what else is out there, and maybe with the 10s Jabra finally nailed it (though, since they're giving up on earbuds, probably not: https://www.theverge.com/24176836...apple-sony), but what I can say for sure is they are so wildly beyond any other pair of Jabra earbuds I've used, that it's hard to believe they were released at the same time, and for similar prices, instead of the Jabras being 15 years old from the dawn of earbud technology.

Well you'll be happy to know they're exiting the consumer business entirely.

I don't really care, but yes, you'll see in my post I link to an article about that.
