Our Verdict
Samsung U Flex Wireless
Jabra Elite 25e Wireless
The Samsung U Flex Wireless are a slightly better around-the-neck design than the Jabra Elite 25e Wireless. The Samsung has a better-built neckband that's flexible enough to fold and fit into your pockets. The Samsung also have a more stable and slightly better isolating in-ear fit. They have customizable sound and a wealth of features, but only if you're paired with a Samsung device. The Jabra, on the other hand, will be more comfortable for some thanks to their earbud fit. They also have a much longer battery life than the Samsung.
