Bragi Dash vs Jabra Elite Sport (2017)

The IPX7 certification means these can work even when used while swimming. Do note however that increased water pressure (like when diving) can still cause damage.

The highs and mids have good detail but are not forward or boosted. Instead, they have a smooth quality to them that makes them easy to listen to. Bass quantity is pretty high, and with good power too.

The Dash features 4GB of internal memory. This allows the earbuds themselves to hold up to 1000 songs, which can be played without connecting to a music player or smart phone.

Users can make taps or swipes on the Bragi Dash's touch-sensitive areas on the earpieces. This can help to play or pause music, skip current track or play previous track, control volume as well as other functionality.

With these earbuds synced with the Bragi companion app, users can track fitness-related stats like heart rate, distance traveled and the like.

In this mode, the mic picks up audio from your surroundings. You can hear sound from around you mixed in with your music.

There is an integrated heart rate monitor which can connect to Jabra's fitness companion app. This combination should make it very easy for you to see fitness related data.

The Elite Sport sounds quite balanced with no harshness or muddiness. The highs are clear and deliver good detail. Mids sound natural and rich, while the bass is tight and controlled instead of bloated. With these headphones, you will get decent punch from the usually bass-centric workout tracks, yet you will still be able to enjoy a refined sound when listening to more mellow or instrument focused music.

These resist sweat and other liquids as they are IP67 rated. They can be submerged in water without getting damaged as long as the water is not too deep and they are not submerged for a long time.

You can attach wing tips to the earpieces, which allow for better in-ear fit for reduced chances of the earpieces falling off. The tips are quite soft so they will not have too much of a negative impact on comfort.

Each earpiece has two buttons which you can use to control playback or to answer/end calls.

The charging case has an internal battery that can add up to 6 hours to the Elite Sport's battery life.

There are microphones integrated in the ear pieces so hands free calls are possible. Voice quality from the mic is actually pretty good.

You get a charging case, 3 pairs of silicone ear tips in different sizes, 3 pairs of premium Comply ear tips in different sizes, 3 wing tips in different sizes as well as a charging cable.
