Jabra Wave

Voice quality was pretty good overall. Voices sounded full, if somewhat muffled through the earpiece, as if there wasn't quite enough treble. It wasn't bad, though, and some owners may prefer the warmer-than-usual tone. Transmissions through the...

Comfortable. Good sound quality and noise suppression. Excellent battery life

Large. Slightly odd fit doesn't always feel secure. No A2DP streaming

The Jabra Wave is a good quality headset with excellent battery life at a relatively low price.

Review: Jabra Wave

Jabra is known for their excellent Bluetooth headsets. The Jabra Wave is no exception. While its design seems to look a little bit outdated compared to other Bluetooth headsets, I've always believed that if a design ain't broke, don't fix it. Refine...

Unobtrusive behind the ear design ; Comfortable to wear ; Good sound quality

Strictly for calling. (though this is not necessarily a flaw)

Conclusion, if you talk a lot on your phone and are always on the go, the Jabra Wave headset merits consideration. It’s a good evolution from earlier generation behind the ear headsets. It’s comfortable, easy to use and unobtrusive.

Jabra Wave

The Jabra Wave is one of the rare, few Bluetooth headsets that values design on the same level as functionality. We strapped it onto our ears, took it for a ride, and reveal our findings in this article.

Nice little headset

Good sound, good in a moderately noisy environment. Comfortable, good battery life ; I use this as my primary BT headset at work. I'm a seamstress and can use it when sewing

I wish it had a voice commands and a voice prompt for low battery rather than a beep

Bigger than I thought it would be but, the bulk of it is behind the ear so you don't see it

Jabra Wave Bluetooth Headset

I have always had trouble with headsets as i don't like the earplug directly in my ear. Jabra has sorted this with the gel earpiece. The sound quality is also very good!
