A friend of mine got the Jabra Elite 65t earbuds, and I had the opportunity to test them. After trying them out for a few minutes, I was impressed by the audio quality and decided to upgrade from my wired earphones.
When I finally received the earbuds, I had a little trouble setting them up, but I could finally pair them to various devices in my home. I wrote this article so you do not have to go through the confusion I went through.
Key Takeaways
- Ensure the earbuds are adequately charged before pairing them to any device.
- Take the right earbud out of the case and leave the left one in the case when pairing them to a device for the first time.
