  Overall Rating: 4 Star Review

  Duration of ownership:2 Months

  Strengths: sound is good, noise reduction is great,easy pairing is very good, the unit is not too big. fits well and stays in ear with ear loop and right ear plug. the look is ok.

  Weaknesses: ear loops break easy,I have long hair and it gets tangled in hair. It's not the best but not bad either. I'm sure I'll keep looking for the just right one.

  Overall Evaluation: I would recommend this bluetooth to anyone it's worth the cost.

  Strengths: Noise cancellation.

  Weaknesses: Ear loops do not fit, they break easily, and now the switch to activate voice dialing does not work. Jawbone seems indifferent to the poor quality of the ear loops.

  Overall Evaluation: Not worth the price.

  Duration of ownership:30 Days

  Strengths: Noise cancellation, light-weight

  Weaknesses: Talk button, very poor range, usability

  Overall Evaluation: Pros: - Looks cool (nice packaging if that's worth anything to readers) - Lightweight - Noise-cancellation seems to work pretty well - No issues with battery life so far - Good build quality (pretty much true for most headsets these days) - Pairs quickly Cons: - Doesn't fit well in small ear canals (the smallest size earpiece is still too large) - No small over-the-ear sling included - loose for smaller ears - Can't adjust the headset to fit in the ear while talking - chances are that you'll press the talk button and disconnect the call - The button on top already stopped working - so, no volume control for me most of the time - Turns off when you connect to the charger - irritating to turn it on each time - Speaker not very clear - increasing volume distorts - Extremely poor range - quality drops if I have the headset on one side and just move the phone to the other side of my body (it can't even deal with my body coming in the signal path) - Looks like the way the part of the noise cancellation works is by running in simplex (either talk is active or listen is active). This makes it pretty much unusable to a great degree - you have to know when to start and stop talking. Other comments: I've taken off the rubber earpiece cover to make it fit in my ear canal. This is about the only way to make it fit snugly. Needless to say, it hurts when worn for long periods of time. Because of this, it fits in my ear snugly enough - so, I don't have the problem of the jawbone sensor not touching my cheek. I've cycled through 3 or 4 other headsets. As a comparison to the Plantronics Voyager 510, the noise-cancellation and sleekness would be the reasons to prefer the Jawbone. These are not good enough reasons (excluding the price difference) in my opinion to prefer the Jawbone. It's annoying that among the multitude of headsets, no single headset is good enough to be truly a no-brainer choice - when it comes to headsets, we seem to be back in the Stone Age :-(

  Duration of ownership:2 Weeks

  Strengths: Very effective. Best bluetooth ever tried yet.

  Weaknesses: Medium confort on ear which gets sore sometimes.

  Overall Evaluation: Easy to use and pair with Treo 755P. works excellent for audio qualtity. Tested by turning on car radio high and talking to a person - they could barely hear the radio in the background and only when I pointed out it was on did they notice. When battery gets low, people have difficulty hearing you. I talk all extended periods as a computer tech so this is a expected issue.

  Strengths: Charging time. Easy to install

  Weaknesses: None found

  Overall Evaluation: It worked great with my Palm 680. The sound is very good, but I didn't had the chance to test the noise canceling feature. The design and fitting are also high points of the jawbone 2.

  Duration of ownership:3 Months

  Strengths: - small size- good standby battery life- charges in 50 mins

  Weaknesses: - may not fit everyone well- noise reduction is not as good as advertised- talk battery life only 4 hours- auto shut-off feature when not in use for a period of time

  Overall Evaluation: From reviews that I was reading I was expecting the best bluetooth. It is a decent headset but not exactly what I expected.I have had issues getting the perfect fit with ear piece combos but nothing really fits too comfortably. When I try to use a bigger earbud (since I can't hear well in the car especially when the volume is too low on the headset) to block out noise it makes my ear hurt.I take many of my meetings in my car and I find myself have to use my back up headset while I recharge this one. My backup one last 8 hours talk time.Noise-reducion does seem better with this than my plantronics 510 but considering all the other factors I am still in search for the perfect bluetooth headset

  Strengths: Great sound quality

  Weaknesses: ear loops keep bending or breaking - I have gone through one a week

  Overall Evaluation: Overall the products is great - it meets my expectations with one exception - the ear loops do not store well. No matter where I store it they seem to bend beyond use or break.

  Duration of ownership:1

  Strengths: none

  Weaknesses: LOUSY LOUSY audio, easily broken stem, odd and uncomfortable comfiguration.

  Overall Evaluation: I have no idea how or why this headset gets such good ratings. I own the predecessor and I recently tried for a day this new model. IT SUCKS!!!-the worst tinniest incoming audio I've ever heard and it is REALLY REALL QUIET too, so forget conversing in any loud ambient situation. And unless you plan on wearing it as a necklace (which I have seen people do) count on breaking the stem often.

  Duration of ownership:1 Weeks

  Strengths: small, sleek, aesthetic, white led, good sound quality, fast charging, nice box and presentation

  Weaknesses: very light (too light), odd fit, has to touch cheek/face to cancel noise, expensive

  Overall Evaluation: Jawbone II is a great looking and wonderful bluetooth headset. It charges very fast (under 50 mins) using a USB charging system. It has a magnetic dock for ease of use. Very portable and sleek, without any visible buttons on the face. Designed by Italian designer Yves Behar. Cons are the light weight. It can almost fly off if it's not firmly secured. Other problems include poor fit, even though Aliph gives three ear buds and hooks, leather as well. Expensive product that is worth the purchase if you drive and talk in California or other state that mandates hands-free headsets.

  Duration of ownership:2 Weeks

  Strengths: Call quality is good

  Weaknesses: Comfort

  Overall Evaluation: I used this for less than 2 weeks and it would not stay in my ear. I have small ears and even with the small earbud and adjusting the earloop it was very uncomfortable. In fact, the headset would not stay on my ear and fell to the ground one time when I was walking.The plastic side of the headset started acting weird when I clicked it (the side that you see with all the grooves). It wasn't connected to the rest of the headset completely/the very back was loose. I got a replacement headset and I still couldn't get it to fit right, so I returned it before my return policy ended.Overall, I was expecting a lot more especially when you pay top dollar for the best advertised bluetooth currently available. I would defintely be cautious on where you buy it and make sure it has a good return policy.
