Default Jabra Elite 85h wireless noise cancelling headphones with 36 hour battery life launch

Jabra has launched Elite 85h, its challenger in the wireless over the ear noise cancellation headphone market. The Danish company is the only brand that offers only wireless headphones and with Elite 85h, it is making a play for the premium end of the consumer wireless headphone market. While it has catered to audio segments aimed at consumers across price segments in the past, the Elite 85h comes to take on Bose QC 35 I,I and Sony WH-1000XM3, the two most popular headphones in the wireless noise cancelling category.

The Elite 85h is a big headphone, which confirms its over the ear attributes and comes in black, blue and beige colors. The headphone uses premium materials for its build and even uses woven fabric for the outer layer. While Sony relies on touch gestures on the ear cup for actions like play/pause music, the Elite 85h sticks with traditional ****ons located on the right side of the headphone to achieve those actions. For noise cancellation, Jabra equipped the Elite 85h with a total of eight microphones. There are three on the exterior of each ear cup and one each on the inside of the device.
