Fashion-forward style and stellar sound quality allow the Aliph Jawbone Era (2011) to consistently appear in the top five of comparative Bluetooth headset reviews. Technology allows the handset to respond to kinetic cues (tapping and shaking) to perform a...
Abstract: Does any gadget category get as much hate as Bluetooth headsets?Sure, Google Glass is getting plenty of public ire now, but Bluetooth headsets have been around for much longer. If anything, the quick dismissal of hardcore Bluetooth users was a sign of thi...
This is the best Bluetooth headset I have tested. If you want the very best and price is no object, then this is the headset for you. That being said, if you want some of this cool technology, it can be had for less money with other headsets in the Jawbo...

I really like the Jawbone ERA. It has a relatively diminutive form factor, small but not delicate, and is relatively lightweight. Easily paired with my iPhone 4S, it is also loaded with features (among which I like TapTap best), battery life is exce...
In short, the Jawbone ERA surpassed all my expectations. The ERA's robust hardware and software features were more then I ever expected from it. Although I would've liked a little more simplicity when pairing the app with the head piece, the extra steps w...

Abstract: Sponsored links, if any, appear in green. Over the weekend, I got the chance to cozy up with the Jawbone ERA Bluetooth headset. Overall, this headset really impressed me. Along with a host of innovative and interesting features, Jawbone also offers a ...

The shaking motion, whether double-time or quadruple-time, worked like a charm. The Era bundles a generous amount of earbud covers and earhooks, which increase the chances of finding a solid fit. With or without the earloop, the Era felt snug and sec...
