Jabra Sport Pace

Jabra is known for its quality wireless headsets, and the Sport Pace is no exception.

Everything for sports

Everything in the headphones is made for maximum comfort in sports. They sit tightly in the ears, do not fly off, the arms are fixed firmly and reliably. The case received an IP54 protection level — not only from moisture, but also from dust, sand and even light mechanical stress, and the cable has a reflective ability. The main colour of the model is black, with a combination of green, red, yellow and blue to choose from. The design is understated but cute.

Fitness tracker

Headphones perform the function of not only a headset with the ability to simultaneously connect to two devices (Multipoint), but also a fitness tracker. Voice prompts in a female voice will tell you how many steps you took, how much time you spent on it, and even how many calories you burned while doing it. However for this functionality to work, you need to install the Jabra Sport Life and Jabra Service applications on your smartphone. The latter will inform you about the need for a software update and the remaining battery charge.

Modest but tasteful

By the way, about the battery. Here is the time to remember the principle: "If it arrived somewhere, it means that it left somewhere." Sport Pace does not indulge in battery life, a maximum of 5 hours in active mode and a week in standby mode. Very limited.

The situation is similar with sound. No matter how hard they try to praise Pace for its good sound in video reviews, it is rather mediocre here. However, with a frequency range of 100 – 10,000 Hz, it could not be otherwise. The sound is flat as a board, and the bass effect is achieved only by excessive sound pressure when seated deep in the ear.

In general, if the Sport Pace were good in sound or cheaper ($ 110, after all), they would not have had a price. And so ... It's more like a headset and a fitness tracker than headphones for listening to music.
