  • Polarizing appearance

  • Would have liked a carrying pouch for the price
  • Pricier than most bluetooth headsets.
  • None.
  • Some of the voiceactivated features require an extra purchase
  • On top of the headset.
  • Short battery life. Fussy ear hook.
  • Sound quality can degrade in certain scenarios
  • Thin earhook seems fragile

  • Voice cancellation still not 100 percent flawless
  • The Aliph Jawbone Icon doesn't have a manual volume rocker and the ear fit could be a bit more comfortable
  • No matter how cool it looks
  • Wearing a headset when you're walking around is still just a little lame.

  • Overall, I love the Icon’s look and its comfortable fit. The new main button works great, and the audio alerts and apps are a nice touch. Ultimately, though, the most important feature of a Bluetooth headset is call quality, and the Icon’s early-90s c...

  • No volume control; flimsy ear loop; expensive
  • The Aliph Jawbone Icon is rather pricey and lacks volume keys, but, if luxury is your bag, then its noise-cancelling capability, downloadable extras and simple interface will probably satisfy you ...
