Product description

 

Jawbone Prime Bluetooth Headset with Noise-Canceling Microphone, Black, v2.1 with EDR, Jawbone Branded, (includes AC Power Adapter, USB Cable, Earbuds and Ergo Earbuds [s,m,l], Leather Earloop)

Combining ergonomic modern design with the latest in noise suppression technology, the Jawbone PRIME Bluetooth headset eliminates real world noise better than any other headset--even better than its predecessor, the Jawbone 2--thanks to the improved NoiseAssassin 2.0 technology. The Jawbone PRIME can handle wind up to 10 mph, enabling you to have intelligible conversations while maintaining the natural sound of the your voice.

The PRIME headset features a unique undulating texture, crafted with high precision in 3-D to reflect the light and give a sense of movement to the exterior surfaces. The design has also been enhanced by a slight indication in the shield's texture, a small tactile crease that indicates where the switch is located. The inside contour of the PRIME follows the curve of your face comfortably. And with three round Earbuds, three New Fit Earbuds and an optional earloop, you can choose what works best for your individual ear.

The Jawbone PRIME includes Multipoint functionality and can be simultaneously connected to two Bluetooth enabled devices. To charge the PRIME's internal battery, you can use the included AC wall charger, or plug the USB cable into your computer (full charge takes approximately 50 minutes).

The Science Behind Jawbone PRIME

Originally developed for use in tanks and helicopters, Jawbone PRIME's NoiseAssassin is a proprietary technology that eliminates background noise from mobile phone conversations. Jawbone is the only Bluetooth headset with a Voice Activity Sensor (VAS) that actually feels your speech, which helps Jawbone distinguish your voice from background noise. The NoiseAssassin 2.0 technology embedded in the PRIME delivers an order of magnitude improvement in the noisiest environments (6 to 9dB) extracting even more noise while keeping the user's voice natural.

The Acoustic Voice Activity Detector (AVAD) provides a fail-safe mechanism when the Voice Activity Sensor (VAS) doesn't touch your face. When the VAS is not touching the face, Jawbone PRIME performs as good as or better than any other noise-cancelling headset. When the VAS touches the face, you get the turbo-boost to the NoiseAssassin performance.

    « Good product »
    Love this bluetooth headset. The noise assasin really works. With or without the clip, the earpiece stays in place. Only issue is the battery charge isn't that great. I find that it runs out before the day is done, but then again I probably talk on my phone quite a bit. Also it's not waterproof which is a downside for me since it rains so much where I live.

    « Great device but the quality is suspect »
    I purchased this device after a lot of research and for the features and device capabilities, I have no complaints but the ear loop in particular is crap. The part that inserts into the ear bud is plastic and it broke after a few weeks with almost no pressure at all. Jawbone won't replace but is very happy to sell you a replacement set. I'm now having to use it without the ear loop, which is ok.

    Bottom line feedback for me is if you absolutely need the ear loop, you're going to have to find another product otherwise this product is the best I've found.

    Was not happy with the performance at all. I was really very disappointed. The seller returned my money once i returned the product and i am very pleased with their support.

    « Item did not work »
    The item I received did not work. I even went to an at&t store to check to see if the problem was my phone (or operator error...), and it didn't work at all. I opted to get reimbursed for it. I wouldn't buy an item like this online anymore, better go to Costco, maybe pay $10, but then if it doesn't work you can get it exchanged right away instead of having to mail the thing back.

    « Incomplete package »
    The product was not in the box. It was loose in a paper mailer. There was a blurry incomplete photocopy of the instructions. The extra sets of earpieces were missing. The set I got doesn't fit and falls out of my ear and I need to use the optional ear piece to keep it on.

    The unit works well otherwise in terms of sound and noise cancelation.

    Good product! Poor customer service.
