After numerous headsets that didn't work at all, my husband was told to buy this Jawbone 2 headset. So he did & within 2 days of use, the piece that goes in his ear, broke inside. Fortunately, there was no serious damage to my husband's ear but we surely didn't want this product again. We'll keep searching for a better one.

Needs softer earpiece, and needs stronger resolution for noise and wind.

First of all, this is a great headset, Ace your husband must do really hard manual labor because I don't see any way that the earpiece can break inside your ear unless you break it off yourself. Noise and wind reduction has gone down 10-fold since this models predecessor. As for the "awkward connection," it's really no big deal, it's just Aliph's way of saying, you need a special charger for this special device. The sensor does not need to touch your cheek, just simply your "jawbone." I use the wired ear hook without the leather because I have glasses and it works fine by me. Sometimes I don't even use the earhook and it feels like the piece isn't even there. There is NO other headset on the market that can compete with the Jawbone 2, well except for the Jawbone 1. With it's noise assassin technology, voice is clear as can ever be on a Bluetooth headset, the only down is that there is still that crackly Bluetooth sound that nobody has figured out how to get rid of.

Proprietary USB cable with awkward connection, does not stay in your ear solidly enough for cheek sensor to contact properly. Forget trying to use it without the ear hook especially if you move your jaw (to chew something?). Far too expensive. At half the going price, it's not worth it.
