They say good things comes in small packages, I say, it’s a good thing Bluetooth headsets are small because if you’re going to hang them on your ear for the entire day you wouldn’t want one that makes your head tilt sideways. The Jabra headset we have today, the Jabra Extreme, is very small and handy to use. With a dimension of only 47mm x 18.5mm x 27.5mm, it can hang comfortably on your ear even without the hook (just don’t try to run jump around with it) and it fits nicely into your pockets when not in use.

The front of the Jabra Extreme comes with a grayish grille design, cleverly hiding the dual microphone located right under. Right at the top of the headset is the micro USB port for charging and right beside that lays the tiny volume buttons. You can always remove the ear hook that fits nicely right behind the ear piece. I’m not sure if the hook will become loose if you remove it too often, but just in case, it comes with an extra hook in the package itself. 
Review continues after the jump.


It also comes packaged with the most basic necessities you would want in a Bluetooth headset, car charger, wall plug charger, USB charger for the computer, extra ear hook and ear pieces and a fancy packaging you won’t feel like throwing ever. The most attractive accessory is the tiny micro USB charger that does not come with any wire mess. This can only mean that you must leave the little headset stuck to the charger, the bright side is, at least you won’t risk tripping over the wire and causing your PC to fall down.

One of the first thing I noticed about the Jabra Extreme, because I’m so forgetful and lazy, is how you have to pull the power button to one side to turn it on and off. Unlike most gadgets that use only one button and one press to turn on or one long press to turn off, the Jabra Extreme does not. This means that if you’re lazy like me and don’t have a habit of manually switching off your gadgets, the headset will remain idle until the battery gets drained out.
The Jabra Extreme boasts extreme clarity with its Noise Blackout Extreme technology that uses dual microphone and automatic volume adjustment to enhance call quality. But unfortunately though, with two devices paired simultaneously, whenever I make a call with one phone, the sound quality deteriorates a lot, making it hard for the other party to hear me – if he hears me at all – and will sound slightly crackly at my side. I didn’t encounter any problems though when streaming music to the headset, it will automatically switch itself to the other device whenever I turn the music off on one of them.
It’s unfortunate the Jabra Extreme cannot do in what it’s supposed to be best in – delivering an ultra-clear sound, when paired with two devices at least. If you only have one phone and do not mind this fault, it seems like a worthy product to get. Don’t get me wrong though, when paired with only one single device at a time, it does deliver all the smart benefits. It works well as an earphone too if you just want to have something that can transmit music.
