    Pros: Sounds better to me then any other headset I have tried

    Cons: Battery life sucks, Noise canceling is not that great. it is missing some of the features found on lower priced headsets

    Summary: I purchased the headset in January because it sounds better then the jawbone and the Plantronics. I went for sound quality over features as sound quality was more important to me. Besides, I am the one who has to listen to it all day. After owing it for a while I find that the battery life sucks when compared to other headsets I have owned. The noise cancelling is also not what I expect from Bose. They make some of the best noise cancelling headphones on the market so I thought they would have really high quality noise cancelling technology. As it turns out, it is just average or below average in the noise cancelling department. In the end, if you want a headset that sounds great in your ear but you don't talk on the phone very much then this might be a good fit. If you are looking for something with lots of features or the ability to stream music, then this is not the headset for you.

    Which jawbone & Plantronics are you comparing it to? I currently have the Plantronics 925 from Apr 2009 and I love it, except for current battery life. I need a new unit. Current 925's from Nov 2010 suck. Worse than my old Plantronics 655. TIA.
