I don't give 5 stars that often, but I love this thing.
The calls are very clear as advertised and they can hear me fine as well. It's fantastic being able to finally answer calls hands free in the car; no having to have an earpiece or anything.
I love that you can connect two Bluetooth devices at once; I don't have a smartphone, but I can connect my basic cellphone with Bluetooth to this device, as well as my iPod Touch to send music to it!
The size makes it great to take it with you anywhere and use it as a speakerphone/speakers at home.
It looks great on the sun visor of the car, as well on a desk.
There is also a built-in FM transmitter. Personally, the transmitter doesn't seem that much of an advancement to send a clear strong signal than other FM transmitters that I've owned (still getting a static or fuzzy sound on a higher volume), but still, it is definitely a nice bonus to have!
The auto on/off can be a hit or miss: it usually tells me "connected" right when I open my car or after I turn on my engine. I feel the auto-on part definitely works better than the auto-off. I usually need to manually unsync my phone or iTouch from the Jabra, especially when my car is just parked in the garage and I'm still very close in range in my house.
Something to keep in mind: I've tried calling from my home phone to my cellphone/Jabra and I've noticed there is a slight delay for the Jabra to wake up and say "Incoming call" - it definitely isn't "real-time" immediately on the first ringing; it could actually be ringing for two or three times until the Jabra does actually tell you someone is calling. On top of that, if the Jabra doesn't understand your voice saying "Answer", it can add up to the delay of answering and greater chance you may end up missing the call. I think to be really safe, it's best to physically press the answer button. Maybe this "delay" can be improved in a future firmware update. However, I'm sure most people wouldn't be hanging up after just ringing two/three times anyway. If you miss the call, you can press the "Voice" button and say "Call back" to call back the last incoming number.
Holding on the "Voice" button for a few seconds will tell you how much battery life is left.
Holding on the main Telephone icon call button on the top takes me directly to my phone voice commands.
Double tapping the Telephone icon redials the number automatically.
The device is also firmware upgradeable if there are any improvements in the future.
It uses a Micro USB to charge.
If you ever feel like using your cellphone in the car, when you think about the safety and traffic ticket costs, this product is a no brainer worthy investment. The versatility of this product being suitable for home use just makes it even better. Fantastic design.
