Jabra's STONE is a new Bluetooth earpiece with an elegant design and attractive features. Unlike the Jawbone and Plantronics Voyager before, which have an extended boom that lays on the cheek – the Jabra STONE has no boom but instead it utilizes DSP technology and Noise Blackout Extreme to increase not only the phonics that can be heard to the person calling you but also for upgraded noise elimination. The Jabra Stone is very lightweight (only .25 ounces) and it can easily be slipped into a pocket or purse making it super portable. The headset features a touch volume control. Another useful feature is the ability to connect two Bluetooth enabled devices at the same time with “Multiuse capabilities.” The headset can also stream music from A2DP compatible mobile phones. The only downside found with the Jabra STONE is that those with bigger ears might enjoy it more. Since the earclip is not adjustable, it might keep falling out of small ears. This is a headset fit for a specific size of ear.
