Jabra Extreme - Is this bloody earpiece really that good?


Jabra? I thought it was Ja Ja Brink, you know, that tall & ugly character from Star Wars? Anyway, Jabra is supposed to be known as advanced in technology to cancel noise and give you clear & crystal sound, but this is not the case.

Going through the catalogue and those fake PR write-up (Yo, PR Company, you got to do better than this), saying that ir uses dual microphones to intelligently filter out background noise by as many as 24 decibels of sound - twice the noise reduction achieved by first-generation Noise Blackout (12dB). Where got dual microphone? Also it states that Extreme is
Enhanced with automatic volume control that intelligently amplifies a soft voice, do you believe in this crap? If it's so intelligent, then I guess you need not be as hard-sell as now..

Besides the crap they are writing, this really tops it all: New and unique Ultimate-fit EargelsT specially developed for Jabra Extreme guarantee superior comfort, especially for working professionals who wearthe Extreme throughout the day for increased productivity and efficiency. Then you'll really look stupid walking around talking to yourself...man..what a disgrace!

Anyway, to cut the story short, you can forget about buying Extreme, for the price of S$128, you can definitely get something cheaper and better than this.

Jabra, if you are listening or reading this, then I guess you'd better not over promised on what you can deliver.

I've personally bought the Extreme, and man, it really sucks! Not only it did not reduce noise, and I can even echo during my conversation.

Only one thing I like about the Extreme, that is easy switch on by flick of a button, doesn't require you to continuously press on like the others bluetooth in the market.

Overall feel, not worth the money spent.
