Our Verdict
Beats Powerbeats3 Wireless
Jabra Elite Active 45e Wireless
The Beats Powerbeats 3 Wireless are better headphones than the Jabra Elite Active 45e Wireless. They're more comfortable, and their audio quality is superior. They also have slightly better isolation performance, and they offer about twice the battery life of the Jabra. On the other hand, you can’t EQ them, which you can do on the Jabra. You can also connect the Jabra to two devices, and they have a mic-mute function for calls. The Beats will also be a better option if you want headphones to run outside while being aware of your surroundings.
