Review: Aliph Jawbone Icon

One of the best things we saw at CES 2010 this year? Would you believe it's a Bluetooth headset?

Does what you want it to do, and does it well. Comfortable, easy to use, good audio quality. Not ugly, and no flashing blue lights mean you look like a little less of a Blue-tool. Onscreen battery indicator when paired with an iPhone, as shown in the...

No matter how cool it looks, wearing a headset when you’re walking around is still just a little lame

Aliph Jawbone Icon review: Aliph Jawbone Icon

We see so many Bluetooth headsets here at CNET that most of them seem the same after awhile. That's why we sit up and notice when a unique one comes along. Last year, for example, we were awed at the stellar audio quality of the Plantronics Discovery...

The Aliph Jawbone Icon comes in a variety of beautiful jewellike designs; it has a dedicated on/off switch; and it comes with several ear-fit options. It has many advanced features, including an iPhone battery meter, and is highly customizable with...

The Aliph Jawbone Icon doesn't have a manual volume rocker and the ear fit could be a bit more comfortable.

Not only is the Aliph Jawbone Icon attractive and affordable with great call quality, but it is also highly customizable with advanced features that make it the most innovative Bluetooth headset we've seen to date.

Aliph Jawbone Icon HD + the Nerd

The HD comes with seven different sets of ear tips, including three that sit in your ear, and four that use an ear hook. There's also an AC charger with a 4.5-inch micro-USB cable. The default ear tip fit me securely, and I wore the test unit...

Wire-free USB audio with the Nerd. Great sound quality, especially for A2DP. Can run apps. Attractive design

Sound quality isn't as good as on some similar headsets

The Aliph Jawbone Icon HD + the Nerd is a one-two punch for users looking for a Bluetooth headset they can use almost anywhere.

Jawbone ICON Bluetooth Headset Review

Aliph's last premium Bluetooth headset, the Jawbone PRIME, hit the market back in April 2009 with a mixture of decent sound quality and distinctive looks, and quickly grabbed a place as our favorite mainstream hands-free kit. Now the company is back...

Jawbone ICON Bluetooth Headset

The newest Bluetooth headset from Jawbone called the Icon is a big improvement over the past generations, The Icon is very easy to use with only 2 buttons to operate one that is only dedicated to powering on and off and the other for answering calls,...

On the Icon you will find the status indicator led that is designed in a circular shape and also looks really nice, when charging the led will turn red and when finished it will turn white. Charging is fast and will take about 90 minutes to get a full...

Aliph Jawbone Icon Bluetooth headphones

Aliph's attractive Jawbone Icon is an upgradable Bluetooth headset

Smaller and more stylish than earlier Jawbones, user-customisable voice alerts

Sound quality can degrade in certain scenarios, thin earhook seems fragile

Smaller, smarter and glitzier, Aliph's new series of Jawbone Bluetooth headsets aim to combine good looks with a customisable, voice-driven interface.

Goondu review: Jawbone Icon

Hands down, these are the best Bluetooth earpieces I have used so far, whether you're talking about sound quality, comfort or user-friendliness.

At the US price, I’d recommend the Jawbone Icon without any reservations. This is a deluxe Bluetooth earpiece that will make you junk that free one you got with a new phone in an instant.

Great BT Headset

I have owned quite a few headsets in the past, but this one is the best by far. I hope that it does not meet the same doom as my others and gets lost. Sound quality is awesome and the app MyTalk is a really neat feature to play with. I like to drive...

None so far
