Q: Do the headphones work independently, or does one headphone not work without the other? I have the Jabra 85t set and my left earpiece will not work unless I also have the right earpiece in, and wanted to know if this will still be the case with these.

A: Hello EmGee - Yes, the feature will be available. The Jabra Elite 85t was released in November 2020 when that feature was not available on Jabra devices yet but is now offered on the Elite 3, Elite 4, Elite 5 and Elite 7 Series.

Q: What is the NRR rating for these earbuds?

A: Hello, Bob - Thank you for your question. The Elite 8 Active is not rated for hearing protection, and we do not recommend using them in that manner. For more information about the hearing protection standards that our devices follow, please check this link (https://bit.ly/4bMu8Yd). However, those standards only apply to sounds produced by our products. Again, we do not recommend using our devices as hearing protection against external sources.

Q: Is there a volume adjustment for hearing.

A: Yes, aside from using your phone to adjust volume, the left earbud turns sound down while the right earbud is used to turn sound up.

Q: Can the special ear buds that are the special of today be used as a hearing aid not just for listening to music? Thanks! Tommy Hiester

A: Hello - No, the Jabra Elite 8 Active does not have the capability of being a hearing aid, but we kindly recommend checking out our Jabra Enhancement series of hearing aids to fit your needs.

Q: Can I shower in these?

A: I have gone swimming with mine and have had no issues. Just watch how much time you are submerged or have direct water continuously on them. As will all electrical devices no matter the ip rating just be cautious

Q: Are these the Gen 2 version? What is the release date of this product?

A: No it's gen 1 and the only real difference in the gen 2's are the case.

Q: Hello, I wonder if the Jabra Elite 8 product is a brand new product. Is it second hand or used? Is it tried and tested? There is a protective tape on the original box of the headset. Is your product like this too? Thank you.

A: Hello Emir - Thank you for your question. If the Jabra Elite 8 Active listing to which you refer was posted by Jabra Official Store or an authorized reseller, the product would be new (unless otherwise indicated in the ad). If the listing was posted by someone else, you would need to ask them directly as to the status of the device you are interested in purchasing. Let us know if you have any other questions by contacting our Support Team directly. You can find contact information on the Jabra website at https://bit.ly/49Vw8g1 and we are always happy to help.
