The Jabra Elite 7 Pro is the successor to the famed Jabra Elite 75t. It comes with several improvements over its predecessor that make it an enticing purchase. When it comes to the microphone, Jabra consistently blows us away in this area. The Jabra Elite 7 Pro houses four microphones with a VPU (voice pick up) sensor in each bud. These sensors use bone conduction technology to transmit your voice via the vibrations in your jawbone, according to the company. Jabra’s algorithms then cancel out other ambient sounds such as wind and voices. During our testing period, we were supremely impressed with the Jabra Elite 7 Pro’s microphone quality. Be it calls or voice recordings, the speaker’s voice sounds crystal clear with barely any distortion. Ambient sounds are also reduced drastically making this one of the best microphone systems we’ve come across on a TWS pair of earbuds.

The Sony WH-CH720N headphones offer impressive active noise cancellation (ANC) at an affordable price point. They are lightweight and comfortable, making them suitable for extended use. The sound quality is commendable, delivering clear mids and crisp highs, though lacking the deep bass found in higher-end models. However, the build is predominantly plastic, which may feel less premium, and they support only SBC and AAC codecs, omitting advanced options like LDAC. Additionally, the charging speed is relatively slow. Overall, the WH-CH720N provides excellent value for those seeking quality ANC without a hefty price tag.
