Deal Details
Walmart is selling Jabra Elite 5 True Wireless In-Ear Bluetooth Earbuds with Active Noise Cancelling for $84.99.

They have been on sale through Amazon and Woot for for $50-$65 in November 2024, but this is probably still a decent price since Jabra is about to get out of the consumer earbud business and you might not be able to purchase them much longer.

Cannot recommend Jabra. As good as their headphones have been (I own 5: 2x65t active elite, 2xStealth UC AND 1x talk 45). Each one ended up in situation where the cases and/or the headset does not charge. Two even under warranty, and Jabra wouldn't offer a solution /replacement unless I mailed it to them and bore the cost of postage! This brand was my go-to, but no longer!

Elite 75t was the best wireless headphone I've ever owned, but the Bluetooth constantly dropped if it wasn't within eyesight, including in my pocket. I still judge every pair to those and have not found it yet (Beoplay EX, Pi7 S2, Pi8, etc.).

those wipesi have owned 6 sets now.; 2x"4 elite", 2x "4 active" 2x "5 elite" the only I have had isses with are the 5 elite. both of them were defective and would lose connection about every minute. i returned one that i got from amazon, and got a refund from one that I purchased from woot. but woot said i didnt have to ship it back, so i still have it.
now, onto your issue.... I havent had any issues with the rest. I started buying them about 6 months ago. but i have had issues with headphones not charging, that i purchased from other brands, and i can think of 2 scenarios that you might be doing wrong which would cause them to malfunction.
PLEASE NOTE that im not accusing you of doing this, these are just scenarios that you might want to consider.
1) you are not wiping them often. sometimes, there is residue from ear wax or dried sweat that starts building on them, and can be buiding on the charging connectors. I wipe my ears every morning, but wear earbuds all day when im at work, and i notice that after a whole day, there is new earwax buildup. it is just a sliver, but it might build up over time. same thing with sweat, if you wear them to the gym, sweat might be drying up on the connectors, or even worse, sipping onto the inside of the earbud.
my recommendation is to wipe them every 2 or 3 days. which leads me to my next scenario
2) you are wiping them with a damp paper towel or regular dissinfecting wipes, and the moisture is sipping in and causing oxidation.
in that scenario, my recommendation is to stop wiping them with any product that contains any water at all, even if it is a small percentage, and instead, wipe them with rubbing alcohol wipes. sams club has a pack that comes with like 1000 tiny wipes for like 8bucks. that is what i use for mine. since it is straight alcohol on, you dont have to worry about oxidation, and it also kills all the bacteria that forms on them and gets rid of the ear wax smell.

BEWARE!!!!! THESE ARE ALL DEFECTIVE!!!!! i have purchased 2 sets of these, one during the amazon sale, one during the woot sale. both sets were defective. they would disconnect every 1 or 2 minutes.
i own 4 other jabra earbuds and these are the only ones that have given me this issue. i returned both sets.

Thanks. I have troubleshooted these with Jabra. Each one of them. And each one ended up in an eerily same situation : the charging case (in case of the elites) and the headset itself (in case of stealth/talk) shows up a solid purple light when plugged in to a power source. And then after a while it disappears. Nothing makes a difference : a different power source adapter , a diff cable, charging from a computer port etc. It's not about them not being clean, it's some manufacturing defect combined with bad customer service (especially on the consumer side)
