Jabra has unveiled its new Evolve3 headset lineup, introducing a redesigned approach for its high-end productivity headphones by removing the dedicated boom microphone used in earlier generations.
The Evolve3 75 and Evolve3 85 models replace the flexible boom mic with an integrated multi-microphone system combined with onboard processing and software-based noise reduction. As a result, the headsets now look “almost indistinguishable from other premium headphones,” marking a notable shift in design for Jabra’s Evolve series.

The company said the new models are aimed at professionals seeking long battery life and advanced audio features. The over-ear Evolve3 85 is rated for up to 120 hours of music playback on a single charge, while the on-ear Evolve3 75 offers up to 110 hours. Claimed call time with active noise cancellation turned off is up to 25 hours for the Evolve3 85 and 22 hours for the Evolve3 75.
Additional features include adaptive noise cancellation, spatial sound, support for high-fidelity codecs such as LC3, SBC and AAC, replaceable batteries and wireless charging. Fast charging is also supported, with Jabra saying a 10-minute charge can provide up to 10 hours of use.
