Rating  - Very good noice reduction
I am very pleased with my purchase of the Jawbone. When I ask, people cannot believe I am driving in the car, they cannot hear any background noice. It comes with several ear pieces, so you can work with it to find the right fit. My only concern is that it is not rugged. When I put it in my pocket, has to be shirt or coat pocket, you still have to be careful because it seems like the ear loop could break. So far very pleased, my main requirement was noise reduction and fit and am satisfied.
Rating  - Great While It Works
The Aliph Jawbone worked quite well in reducing noise being transmitted. Because the earbuds tend to slip out(I tried them all, and none out them was a great fit), one must gently hold the earpiece against the face for maximum effect.
The reception sound quality is inferior to my Jabra BT350 and JX-10, I also have. I have a much harder time understanding the other caller with my Jawbone. I didn't find that the noise cancellation feature worked at all on the reception end.
The killer for me is the battery life. I have had my Jawbone for just over a year, and the battery is toast. I charge it until the light turns white, and then it lasts about 30 seconds before giving a low battery warning. Since it is a sealed unit, there is no way to fix it.
One final pet peave, the Jawbone lacks the simple features of a $30 Bluetooth headset. Both my Jabras allow me to redial my last number dialed by simply holding down the main button for a couple of seconds. If I try this with the Jawbone, it simply shuts off. The lack of easily accessible volume control is also annoying. Aliph sacrificed utility for style, a trade I don't think was worthwhile.
Rating  - Good for the caller on the other end
I find this works good for the caller on the other end. My Mom is elderly and hearing impaired. She hears me better with jawbone. The noise cancellation elimates noise like inside a car. Also, I once had this noisy vacuum on and she heard me perfectly... no vacuum noise (that was amzaing). Jawbone does not cancel wind noise... wish they'd add that feature. Otherwise, the call quality that I experience is much better. Previously, I had a Motorola 820. The Motorola was more comfortable and the sound that I heard was slightly better. The jawbone sound in your ear is little monotone, but you can clearly hear others. The jawbone fits inside your ear as opposed to the Motorola 820 that rested outside. Also, you have the jawbone sensor that needs to rest on your jawbone. I believe the reason for the snug fit is that it is a requirement for the jawbone to work because it picks up vibrations in your jawbone. I definitely would recommend jawbone; just realize that you are not just replacing an ordinary bluetooth as jawbone has noise cancellation technology and works a little different.
Rating - Superior Sound, challenging fit.
The sound of this earbud is outstanding, the noise reduction is bar none - but the fit is a challenge. Despite the different fittings that come with the Jawbone, I find it difficult to get it to feel like it's not going to just fall off...
