A lot of people complain about using a headset in a noisy environment. Now the story changes with the Jawbone PRIME Bluetooth headset. NoiseAssassin 2.0 technology, an advanced noise-canceling technology originally developed for the military, is featured on this headset for the ultimate in clear conversation.
This unit uses two microphones to constantly sample both your voice and the local environment, with powerful digital signal processing so it can remove the noise and leave only your voice. Sure, it offers you 4.5 hours of talk time or up to 8 days of standby time, and it only weighs 0.4 ounces. And it offers several different sized and shaped earbuds and earloops so you can find the one that works best for you. Naturally it comes with a wall charger and a USB cable.
Regardless of how much the prototypes cost the military, you can have one for a lot less.

Pros: size, features, price not bad, and looks good. The
Cons: Only one problme, Can't seen to get a combination to keep in my ear (many options come with the hardware) and accicentally push buttons while pushing back into ear loosing connection.
Other Thoughts: Problem with keeping in ear negates the advantages for this hardware. I spoke to an owner of older model and they said this was always a problem and knew of no fix. If anyone has suggestions (other than new ears, mine are average) please let me know. Hope this is helpful.

Pros: I bought this headset for my boyfriend, and I've got to say that it works beautifully. It looks very stylish, and is very functional too. He uses it when he's driving, and can hear and speak very clearly through the device. The quality is so good that I can't even tell when he's using the headset! I will definitely buy this for friends who need a reliable bluetooth.

Specifications
Aliph, with Jawbone PRIME, has once again obsoleted itself with the latest and greatest in NoiseAssassin technology delivering an order of magnitude better noise elimination performance, an integrated digital approach to wind reduction, and a fail-safe solution if the VAS does not touch the face.
NOISEASSASSIN 2.0 Jawbone has been able to eliminate real world noise better than any other headset because it is the only headset that can accurately separate speech from ambient noise. Jawbone PRIME has even better background noise elimination than the previous generations. NoiseAssassin 2.0 delivers an order of magnitude improvement in the noisiest environments (6 to 9dB) extracting even more noise while keeping the user's voice natural.
AVAD 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.
WORKS IN WIND After solving NoiseAssassination in the most severe noise environments, Aliph focused its engineers on the task of eliminating the impact wind has on speech. With their strong background in Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques, the Aliph team developed a unique all digital Sensor Signal Fusion system to reduce wind noise. Jawbone PRIME uses an algorithm that digitally fuses together the best audio from its two electret microphones (the clean preserved high-end frequencies of speech) and its patented Voice Activity Sensor (the low-end frequencies of speech) to create a single, natural sounding speech signal. The industry-standard microphone approach used by most headset companies fails as the microphones become saturated with wind noise distorting the low-end frequencies of speech (as noticed when you use your handset in a windy environment).

Great technology is not enough: the Jawbone brand is built upon technological innovation with a design that integrates seamlessly into the user's lifestyle by providing comfort, customized fit and personal preference, and great, iconic aesthetics.
The design effort at Jawbone is a constant refinement exercise, and PRIME is the latest iteration in a continuum of celebrated category defining products. The Jawbone products always call attention through minimalism, by removing the extraneous, rather than adding visual complexity and clutter.
For PRIME, we are introducing 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. Like fashion brands that weave unique textiles, our craft is this high level of sculpting in high-grade plastic. It is the attention to the materiality, to the surface, to the way it reflects light and color that enhances the inherent value of the product-adding quality to quality, and building-in layers of detail and meaning.
Functionally, 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 contours of the product follow your face in a perfectly comfortable manner, while new ergonomic earbuds have been refined to keep the Jawbone in place without an earloop for most wearers.
