Our Verdict
Anker SoundCore Life P3 Truly Wireless
Jabra Elite 3 True Wireless
The Anker SoundCore Life P3 Truly Wireless and the Jabra Elite 3 True Wireless have different strengths. While both headphones are comfortable and well-built, the Anker can reduce more ambient noise around you, thanks to their ANC system. However, the Jabra have a more neutral default sound profile, which some users may prefer, and they offer a significantly better battery performance.
