Duration of ownership:8 Months
Strengths: Great Sound Quality.
Weaknesses: Hurts Ear After Wearing Awhile. Beaks Easily.
Overall Evaluation: Passes "mom" test. When I would talk to my mom while driving, she would always complain she couldn't hear me. With this, she couldn't even tell I was in the car. We could hear each other great.

Strengths: works pretty much as advertised. I use mine in my job driving a semi.
Weaknesses: The main flaw I have found, is that the charging end of the unit detached. This occured over time as the charger was being unplugged. Att+t replaced the unit under warrenty. I noticed a couple others with the same problem laying on the counter.
Overall Evaluation: Jawbone was my second bluetooth. I like the background noise control of this unit. It is very helpful to have my hands free while I am writing down directions etc.

Overall Evaluation: For me, the jawbone is the only way to talk on the phone. Everyone hears me, not the background noises.

Strengths: I've actually mowed the lawn and had a conversation with a friend. It worked fine! I heard her, she heard me, with a little sound in the background
Weaknesses: Wind. It is not good in the wind. But then I've not found any headset that is. I do loose bluetooth connection every now and then. Not sure if it's the Jawbone or my HTC/8525
Overall Evaluation: The best bluetooth I've found and the most comfortable to wear. Bit large physically, but you don't really notice it on. I recommend it to everyone I know.

Strengths: Really notice the tremendous improvement in the quality of reception compared to the other Headsets.
Weaknesses: Takes some trial and error to get a snug 'fit' for the ear piece.
Overall Evaluation: To "test-out" noise reduction feature, I place calls from a noisy Flight Line where Aircraft were continually taking-off and landing. Callers receiving my calls said they couldn't hear the noise. I still have to "test-out" on a Firing Range.

Strengths: Ambient noise suppression technology really does work well! It's a terrific product.
Weaknesses: Sometimes difficult to get on the ear and get a good fit.
Overall Evaluation: The Jawbone is a product that surprised me with its performance: It actually DOES what it says it will do. The noise suppression technology provides for very good sound on the receiver's end, with no background noise interference, even in very noisy environments, like street traffic or crowded places. It sometimes is difficult to fit on the ear, so the ear clip design could be improved. But its sound performance is five-star worthy.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Looks cool
Weaknesses: Extremely poor sound quality. And if you don't hold it next to your cheek, it's almost worthless.
Overall Evaluation: Every single person I have talked to through this headset complains about its poor audio quality. Many of them have asked me to get off the headset and talk through my phone. All of them say roughly the same thing: It sounds you're gargling at the bottom of a barrel.After listening to the demo video on Jawbone's website, I've come to the conclusion that this gargling quality is inherent in the product.Yes, the sound cancellation technology is incredible. But since I don't work at a construction site, I'm better off with my old Motorola H700. For this price, no headset should be this cantankerous.My deepest regret is that I threw away the packaging. Otherwise, I would return this for a refund.

Strengths: Great look, long talk time, and easy to set up, good volume
Weaknesses: earpiece doesn't like to fit great in the ear
Overall Evaluation: Overall I really enjoy this product. The construction makes the product not only look great but also gives you the sense of a quality product, not a cheap piece of plastic. The included ear buds may not fit everyone's ear but with a little modification they fit great.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Easy to use; charges from PC
Weaknesses: Cover for connector sometimes comes off unexpectedly. Where to store while not in use.
Overall Evaluation: Jawbone works as designed. It is an improvement over the previous headset I owned. I especially like how easily it paired with my devices. The distinctive shape is easily recognized.

Strengths: Ease of use
Weaknesses: Users Guide
Overall Evaluation: I received the Jawbone and received the users guide of a half page xeroxed copy of a quick guide. I had to go online to print out the full users guide. Once I knew how to charge, answer, etc, the unit is Wonderful. I highly recommend.
