At Pepcom at CES in Las Vegas, Jabra picked up an innovation award for their Elite 8 Active earbuds, “the world’s toughest earbuds”. Michelle Ritz, Product Marketing Manager, North America gave us the details on just how waterproof and dustproof they are, and how they stay in your ear no matter how active you are. Not just the earbuds though - their case is also designed to protect your earbuds in challenging environments. Michelle also teases why they will get even better later this year.
