Strengths: Sound, comfort, weight & size
Summary: I have not had much success with other Bluetooth headsets and my Treo 650 bu the JX10 is a different story. AS most Treo 650 users know the Bluetooth implementation is a little weaker than other phones. However, the JX10 works very well with the Treo. It is very light and comfortable to wear. In fact, I can wear mine for the better part of a day with no discomfort. The volume of the headset is good and has been enhanced by using a Jabra mini-ear gel that 'funnel' the sound to my ear canal. The reception on the other end has received its compliments, thanks the DSP circuitry. Overall, this is a great headset

Strengths: Lightweight and small. Ease of use. Long battery life. easy to hear. Charging stand and USB kit.
Summary: I have had this for a few weeks now and listed below are some of the things that I noted:
1. THis is a lightweight design and I found it to be of no fatigue when wearing it for 30 minutes to an hour at a time. However, I felt a slight discomfort where the earbud rests on the ear for more than two hours.


2. The sound quality is very good for person wearing the device but not so good for the other party. The background noise that is tranmitted to the recieving party is very loud and made it difficult for the other person to hear me. Even when in a quiet room, the typing sounds (produced by an engineer- who sits in the next office over) were picked up as well as multiple background conversations. It is quite frequent that I hear someone make a comment in regards to the noise.

3. THe call / answer button works very good and is ergonomically located in position unlike the volume buttons. These are located behind the ear and, they are very small and somewhat difficult to adjust.

4. The molded plastic ear clip is of poor design and lends itself to breaking early on. This design uses two very thin, right angled ends to attach to the earpiece. These snap into slots on the ear bud and, are prone to break very easily when changing from left ear to right ear. I had read about this prior to buying and thought that if I was very carefull it would not break on me. Such was not the case. In my first attempt to remove it and swap it to the other position, one end snapped off. Luckily there was an extra one included.

5. The battery life was very good on mine. I found that I could go two full days of use before running out of power.


Summary: Overall, this is good device with long battery life and is lightweight. The mic needs be relocated someplace else than facing directly forward and right on the end where the wind blows right across it similar to a flute. The ear clip needs to be redesigned as well and the buttons could be located in better position. I will be replacing this device soon.

UPDATED 8-31-06 This unit did not survive the So Cal heat and the top cover literally came un-glued and seperated from the sides. Now the unit produces static and, it unpairs from my phone even when it is right next to it It is hit or miss with these things. Some times it is clear and sometimes it is terrible. I have tried three others and all exhibited the same symptoms. Mind you, I was on various phones as well as mine to see whether or not my phone had anything to do with it. A friend of mine stated that his headset also has noise issues and connectivity issues. I think that in part it is the Bluetooth technology that's not up to where it should be. Heck, I can walk outside on a cordless phone more than 100' where as with bluetooth I am lucky to make it 5 feet without crackling. one would think that it would be easy to achieve solid clear signals.

Strengths: Size, Range, Clairity
Summary: It's as small as they say which is nice. It can be stored just about anywhere without being bulky.

The ear clip is nicely moldable to hold onto your ear well.
I don't feel it fits me well but I don't fear losing it with a head turn like I did with an old Motorola 850, and to be honest I feel most ear bud/ear phones don't fit me well.

I found it easy to pair to my phone (Verizon XV6700) and the range has been good for me, but I don't tend to walk away from my phone much.

The buttons are well placed and easy to get to (only three main buttons), but using them is a bit confusing as the main button has multiple uses depending on how long you hold it.

I consistently have trouble getting it to connect to my phone if it's off when I receive a call but then want to use the headset. There's a three second hold to turn on the unit, a greater than one second hold to do other stuff (redial), a quick click to pick up and hang up... Maybe there could have been a second button to distribute the load of functions?

Incoming call clarity has been perfect, though as it sits a bit far away from my ear (see earlier comments about my fit issues) it often sounds a bit quiet. I use it almost exclusively in my car so ambient noise is always an issue. Even so, with few exceptions callers or call recipients have had very few problems hearing me when using the headset.
