This Jawbone seems great, maybe better in some ways than the new Era, but it seems huge and thick to wear. Monster sized, so to speak. Is it? Thanks!

Yes this Jawbone is better than the new Era and the size seems to be fine to me. You're welcome! ;)

It's quite comfortable, and the extra thick end actually makes it sit against your cheek better, enabling higher quality sound.

I don't believe it to be very big, I'll leave it in my ear after talking on it, and forget it's still there. I hope that helps your question.

I am right about that size, maybe slightly less, not sure. It is indeed comfy but...I have had THREE of these 'snap' on me on the head brace, the plastic part if fairly easy to break. Once it does you have to tape it up or w/e. I havent tried taping it but I am going to try on this latest pair. It would be nice if Plantronics did something about this.

I haven't had a chance to really test this yet. Suggest you check out the Plantronics Voyager Edge. It has a larger boom than the Jawbone, but all the reviews I read said it was better at noise cancellation, and it holds a charge longer. I think the Jawbone is better for an office worker without as much need for top notch NC. Hope that helps.

Totally. I bought this device because I have a hard time hearing everyone on calls when I am mobile. This thing is made by a speaker company. So the audio is great. The design is really good. I had a hard time hearing on the top-of-the-line Jawbone. It also didn't stay in my ear. I use the medium earpiece with this one (it comes with 3). It is the most comfortable headset I have owned, and the only one I have managed to use for more than a few months before switching back to a wired setup. I use this every day and am very happy with the purchase.

i don't think it is, my partner is a big guy he said it was fine. i know what you mean though. i would suggest ordering it and if you don't like it just send it back. i think you will like it!

I only put them on a few times. While the quality seemed very good, they are too bulky at the canal entrance.The large golden ring keeps the earpiece not snugged in and it always comes out as I chew or talk.Jaw movements make this unit fall out and therefore I will use only in emergency.So, I like the quality and would suggest they get rid of that large gold insert.

No this thing is awful!!! I hated it and would not recommend it to anyone. It will probably fit you seeing that it's adjustable but it is very uncomfortable and places your jaw at a strange angle.

I have to increase the size when I use it for longer durations, but that's for me with a big head. Generally though the headphones feel good, as the quality of the cushions around the ear is top. Enjoy them!

I suggest you stay away from any Jawbone Bluetooth. I've had nothing but problems with Jawbone (this particular one too), and also a replacement unit I got from Jawbone when I complained was bad too. After having each for a brief period of time the earpiece volume was like I was trying to hear somebody from 5 blocks down the street. Finally threw them away.

I thought I was getting a boom mic for use with my modular helmet. I was a little disappointed when I saw the button mic. As it turned out the wired button mic (no boom) worked well to be attached to the cheek padding. That doesn't answer your question but might affect your decision.

I haven't used the Jawbone Jambox, but I'm perfectly pleased with my Jawbone UP24. As for this Durherm Powerful USB powered blah blah blah....it's awfully cheap. At $35, it looks, feels, and sounds like it should be $5 at a flea market.

Melanie, I think my head is rather large too and it is quite adjustable. I don't hurt at all at the end of the long days on the phone at all. I LOVE this head set. I sometimes forget that I have it on.

Mines was real, the only problem is that it's freaking heavy and bulky!!! And it works perfectly fine. My husband just didn't like it cause it was extremely heavy and huge! Felt like a brick!

It may fit a 12 year old.I wear mine for a while in the morning when my jaw still feels tense.It's not for sports, jut for bruxism.

I have bought both the Jawbone Jambox and the Bose Soundlink for my daughter's birthday tomorrow. She will be 33, so I want a gift befitting of her age and social scene. I like the Jawbone because it is very small and easy to put in her purse but I like the Bose because of the reputation of Bose products. The Jawbone was about $80 less then the Bose. I have been reading reviews and there seems to be similar problems with the blue tooth aspect of both products. But I get the feeling the sound quality is close even with the Bose being much bigger. I see in your comment that the Jawbone can also act like an external speaker and mic which is good for as you say for conference calls etc. I don't see that anyone has responded about the Bose. I think based on the reviews it might be pretty even between both products and in that case I want the smaller unit with the big sounds. I wish I could play them both side by side, but if I open the packaging it will negate taking one of them back. Also Bose never gives you any specification to compare with other products on sound quality because they always say it is in the design not just the specs but it is hard to compare without specs.

I don't know anything about the original neckbone, but this thing was very hard and uncomfortable. I can't imagine anyone being able to enjoy it. It was like a torture pillow! I am 5' 6" and about 130 lbs. My neck is slim, so I don't know if someone having a bit larger neck could benefit from it, but I can't see how. I would think it would be uncomfortable for even my brother and he is 6' 7" and built very stout. I thought this pillow was a joke and sent it back in a hurry! Hope this helps!

every thing I've heard about Amazon has been good return policy. I am now on my second jawbone. It is working well. My first one was lost after about 15 months of service and at that time was working OK. I drive truck and think it might have blown out the window of my ear. I had broken the ear loop a month or two before and it would just hang in my ear with the the gel ear bud I adapted to the speaker button. I got to my destination after driving a couple hundred miles and noticed it was not in my ear any more. Had to get a new one. can't live with out it.
