    "My Favorite Bluetooth yet!" on by Mr_Forensic

    Pros: Great noise reduction. Small and easy to use. Custom fit for my ear. Significantly better than the first generation Jawbone I once owned. The best blue tooth ear piece I've owned. Including the Plantronics Pro.

    Cons: The ability to customize is still in Beta.(Don't advertise it if it isn't ready.)

    Summary: It's easy to use, it works great and the price is reasonable. So far I prefer it to my Plantronics Pro (which was very good). The size is nice and the fit is far more streamlined then the bulky Plantronics Pro. The noise reduction has been as good or better than the "Pro" as well. I haven't tested it in severe conditions yet, but I just received a call in a noisy room full of people and I could hear the caller just fine and the caller didn't hear the crowd of people or the "Muzak" playing in the room. So I think cnet's review is accurate and I would definitely recommend it.

    "LOVE my Icon" on by 100CPS

    Pros: Comfortable, voice quality, looks nice, on/off switch, easy to find button

    Cons: No carrying case

    Summary: I had a Prime which I liked a lot, but I lost it a few months back. So far I like the Icon even better, especially the on/off switch because before I never knew if my headset was on or off and sometimes I would run out of battery. Its also very comfortable, I have only had it for a few days and already on multiple occassions I have caught myself wearing it when I didnt know I was, cause its so comfy I forgot it was there! Overall, its my favorite bluetooth I have ever had, and the people I talk to on it never even ask if I am on a headset.

    oh, and I also love to wear pearls, so I am very excited that this new product (the Catch version) resembles a pearl earring!

    "Good with a few tweaks" on by TeaHee

    Pros: Great sound quality and noise cancellation.
    Far better design than previous models.
    On/off switch.
    Custom voices and applications.
    Micro USB charging (I can charge my Icon and my phone with the same adapter - yay!)

    Cons: Fit - none of the standard attachments provide me with a secure fit.
    Battery life

    Summary: With the correct fit, the noise cancelling is second to none. Getting a good fit can be a bit frustrating though. For me, none of the out of the box accessories worked well, and I tried them all. I concluded that I have odd ears, or at least ears that weren't designed for any of the attachments as I ended up either stuffing it into my ear canal and using the over ear hook (which didn't work as the hook now has a pivot so you can't lodge it into place as with the JB2) or using the ear bud with a little loop. Neither setup provided a secure fit and I was feeling a bit disheartened.

    Luckily I had some Jabra gels lying about. I'd never managed to get them to work but gave them another try. Glad I did - the fit with these gels is amazing. Aliph should seriously consider packaging something like this as standard. Fits securely and comfortably.

    Now the only problem I have is battery life. 4 hours is too short - I would like to see 8 hours as a minimum. That gives you a full day of talk (yes it happens) or the chance to make a few calls one day and to forget to charge it and not be in trouble the next.

    Other features are great. Good to be able to hear an approximation of how much talk time remains. Good also to be able to load different apps and stream music, podcasts etc - but again if you are doing that a lot you'll quickly eat up your battery.

    "I have now owned a dozen bluetooth, this is the best" on by ashparkcity1

    Pros: Love having an actual on/off switch, and I finally found a Jawbone (my third) that fits right.

    Cons: Battery life seems better than my previous bt (Blue Ant Q1, my previous favorite) but still won't last a full day of heavy use.

    Summary: I like the voice messaging and sound quality in and out. Best one yet!

    "Great headset" on by AlphaTigress

    Pros: Sound quality, easy on - off switch, call waiting, voice dialing

    Cons: Battery life is short. 4hrs tops

    Summary: Best headset to date. It can get a little uncomfortable after awhile but the easy on off feature makes that a non issue. Great sound, don't care about the volume controls, call waiting is one click and my phone finally understands my voice commands. Love, Love , Love it. I only wish it had a little longer battery life.
