I don't know how Jabra makes such good Bluetooth modules inside their headsets while other manufacturers struggle. The Bluetooth performance of this headset is nothing short of incredible. This headset can connect to two devices at one time, seamlessly switching audio between them without the user needing to do anything. It just works.Most impressively, the BT connection will never drop, even after many hours of inactivity, such as overnight. If this headset is off and then turned on, it will reconnect to the last connected devices within about 1.5 seconds. No waiting around.If Jabra can do this, why are other Bluetooth devices so spotty with dropped connections, timeout, long wait times to reconnect, and only allowing one device at a time? I wish they all worked this well.Build quality of the headset is also impressive. It's lightweight, but somehow also sturdy and durable. Fits comfortably on the ears, without a lot of clamping pressure. Can be worn for long periods of time.The mic sounds good, but it does need to be fairly close to the mouth for soft talkers. The mic does a great job rejecting background noises, but it does pick up human voices in the background. If using for work in an environment with other people talking, the voices will be audible but not overwhelming. In a noisy environment like a factory, workshop, or outdoors, almost no background noises will be audible at all. Very impressive.Battery life is amazing. The product page mentions 13 hours of talk time, but idle battery life is much longer. I've left this idle for several days to test it, and the battery was still going.Everything about this headset is great. If I had to nitpick one gripe, it would be a lack of airflow on the ear pads. The velour material makes a fairly good seal on skin, it can get clammy if not removed to breathe periodically. This is not a big deal, as replacement pads with ventilation are available. I'll be picking some up.
