Jabra Elite Pro series release date

As we can see, the company releases an Elite every year. The biggest gap between releases or updates of 8 models is 2 years. I’ve also noticed that each model in this lineup is mostly released in the fall. Considering that the Jabra Elite 8 Active came out in 2023, we should expect the Elite 8 Pro to be released in the fall of 2024.

Important Notice: The estimated release date is based on the release schedules of previous models and should not be considered official. I want to remind you that the actual release date may vary due to a variety of factors, including production delays, changes in company policy, or external economic conditions. I strive to keep the information as current as possible, but for the most accurate and reliable updates, I recommend checking the official Jabra website.

If There’s the Jabra Elite 8 Pro Coming Out?

I’m not ruling out some additional factors that could affect the release date of the Jabra Elite 8 Pro:

  1. The success of the Jabra Elite 7 Pro. If the Jabra Elite 7 Pro is very successful, Jabra may wait longer to release the Elite 8 Pro.
  2. The development of new technology. If Jabra is developing new technology for the Elite 8 Pro, this could delay the release date.
  3. The competitive landscape. If other companies release new wireless earbuds that are similar to the Elite 8 Pro, Jabra may release the Elite 8 Pro sooner to stay competitive.

The Price of the Jabra Elite 8 Pro

To gauge the potential price of the Jabra Elite 8 Pro, I suggest taking a look at the starting prices of several previous Elite series models:

  • Jabra Elite 65t (2017): $170
  • Jabra Elite 75t (2018): $180
  • Jabra Elite 85t (2019): $230
  • Jabra Elite 7 Pro (2020): $200

Considering this pricing trend, it’s likely that the Jabra Elite 8 Pro could be priced in the range of $200-$250 at launch. This estimate is based on the pattern of moderate price increases with each new generation, reflecting enhancements in technology and features.

It’s worth noting that Jabra has released a “budget-friendly” version of the Elite 7 Pro, the Elite 7 Active, at $179.99. So, there’s a possibility of a similar strategy for the Elite 8 series, with a standard and “Active” version at different price points.

There are no details about the price of the Jabra Elite 8 Pro yet. Stay tuned to the official website for more information.

The Jabra Elite 8 Pro Features

Here are some of the features and improvements users can expect from the upcoming Jabra Elite 8 Pro. I’ve compiled this list based on feedback from the previous Jabra Elite 7 Pro model. Expand the list to see the full information:

Improved battery life

The Elite 7 Pro’s battery life wasn’t as long as users would have liked. It would have been better to see the Elite 8 Pro provide at least 8-10 hours of battery life on a single charge, with an additional 2-3 charges from the case.

Fit and comfort

Some reviews indicate the Elite 7 Pro doesn’t fit as well as users would like, and it can become uncomfortable after extended wear. Thus, there is a possibility that the company will make a more secure and comfortable fit in the new version, as well as offer a wider selection of ear tips.

Better noise cancellation

The noise cancellation in the Elite 7 Pro was decent, but some users feel it could be improved, especially in noisy environments.

Call quality

The Elite 8 Pro should feature clearer sound and better noise cancellation.

More customization options

The Jabra Sound+ app allows users to adjust the equalizer settings of the Elite 7 Pro, but more customization options are desired, such as the ability to adjust noise reduction and surround sound.

IP waterproof rating

The Elite 7 Pro is not waterproof, and users hope that the Elite 8 Pro will have an IP waterproof rating so that they can be worn in the rain or during workouts.

Multi-point connectivity

According to many user reviews, the company might make the Elite 8 Pro support multi-point connectivity so that users can connect to two devices at the same time.

Please note that the assumptions made here are based on user feedback and do not represent confirmed information about the features of the Jabra Elite 8 Pro. Please follow the news on the official Jabra website.

Vote and you will see which features are most expected in the new model (you can choose multiple elements):

Last Words

I’m looking forward to the Jabra Elite 8 Pro release with you, and hopefully it’s expected in the fall of 2024. It is likely to set new standards in the world of audio technology, promising significant improvements based on user feedback.

As always, stay tuned for updates and official announcements about the Jabra Elite 8 Pro on the official Jabra website.
