Jabra Evolve3 65 Flex Review: Lightweight, Foldable Business Headset

Jabra’s Evolve3 65 Flex is a foldable, on-ear business headset designed to be more portable than the Evolve3 85. It weighs 143g, compared with 220g for the Evolve3 85 in the reviewer’s previous test. Its earcups rotate and the headband folds to fit in the supplied carry case.

The headset has no boom arm. Jabra says its ClearVoice microphone system uses deep learning trained on 60 million sentences to separate a speaker’s voice from background noise. Jabra claims voice pickup accuracy of over 95% outdoors and over 99% in open offices. Its adaptive ANC uses four microphones, adjusts to surroundings and fit, and remains active during calls. A 360-degree busylight signals when the wearer is busy.

Jabra quotes up to 16.5 hours of call time and 80 hours of music playback with ANC off. A 10-minute cable charge can add up to four hours of music. The review lists a replaceable battery and ear cushions, but says battery life is shorter than on the Evolve3 85. The on-ear design also provides less passive isolation than an over-ear headset.

The recommended price is $389 in the US and €299 in Europe. The reviewer says the headset is aimed at business customers, and notes that the Jabra Plus desktop app was not ready at the time of the review; the listed information says it is due in 2027.
