Title: Well worth the money!
Review: I use an iPhone for my business. I don't like holding a phone next to my ear, so I use the speaker or a headset. The downside is that my customers often hear interference from my headset, and the iPhone speaker is poor. I decided to get a speaker system to use with the iPhone. After researching, I chose this Jabra because it was not horrifically expensive, and I preferred a blutooth system to work with the iPhone. I have not been disappointed. I've been using the Jabra now for two months. It set up easily and works like a little charm. I set it near me on my desk and when I get a call, simply press the answer button and have a conversation on a clear line. My clients never hear interference, I hear them very well and the conversation is very clear on their end. I use it all day long: 8-10 hours per day. I'm on the phone a lot, more some days than others, but the charge lasts roughly two days. It will also work while plugged in and charging. The speaker volume is limited, but it's about the size of a coffee cup saucer, so that's a given. Despite its diminutive size, the volume is more than sufficient. The only downside I've experienced so far is that, when the battery is drawing down to empty, the red light starts to flash and, if you don't get it plugged in immediately, it will shut down in probably less than 60 seconds. So, if you are on an important call, and you haven't charged it in a day or so, plug it in before the call. I read reviews before I purchased and saw that a number of people were dissatisfied with range, quality, etc. I've experienced none of those issues and find this product to be an exceedingly useful little workhorse!

Title: very small but surprisingly effective; but: buyer beware of non-authorized resellers
Review: I got it today for use with Microsoft Teams in a small conference room at work. This thing is tiny, much smaller than I expected: it fits into the palm of my hand. It has a bluetooth connection capability (but it does not come with a special dongle, like my Jabra headset), and also USB connectivity (via the permanently connected to the unit USB cable). I plugged it into Dell docking station, and now we can connect our laptops to the speaker by just plugging in the USB-C cable from the docking station. This cable via docking station provides power to the laptop, feeds video to the TV via HDMI cable, and feeds audio to the Jabra Speak via USB. The sound is surprisingly good - the quality is great, and it is loud enough for the team. While it is nominally rated for 4 people, I found that mike is good enough to pick up sound from people around a larger table, which can sit up to 8 people. Connection to MS Teams as audio established automatically, one did not even need to switch the audio to Jabra Meet in the list. Sound quality on the other end was also better than expected. The only annoying thing is that every time you turn the unit on, it gives recorded instructions to connect to bluetooth - which is totally unnecessary as we do not play to use the bluetooth functionality, and this announcement is very annoying as it is repeated over and over again. I guess, the only way to deal with it is to keep it plugged into the docking station and never turn it off. Overall, a really nice gadget. Please be aware that when you buy on Amazon, the gadget can be sold by Amazon.com or any other business or individual doing merchant business through Amazon. At the time of this writing, there are 3 businesses who are not authorized dealers offering the same unit along with Amazon.com as a seller! You as a customer may pick from whom you want to buy. Jabra is very specific on their web site that warranty support will only be provided to original owners of units bought from authorized resellers. Amazon.com is one of them, but many third party vendors (with names you never heard) who are selling through Amazon are not. Jabra even maintains a list of non-authorized vendors, and they say they sell either grey market products or refurbished units, as they cannot get what they sell directly from Jabra! An option to buy a unit sold directly by Amazon can cost a few dollars more, but it is the only one that comes with warranty!

Title: Is it weird how much this thing has made my life better, and how much I love it
Review: I had another USB speakerphone that this replaced. That one wasn't bluetooth enabled, and that turned out to be a significant game changer for me.I'm a remote worker, and I spend a lot of time on the phone. The things that I love about this speaker is that it works with my PC (via USB) and my phone (via BT) simultaneously. It also functions as a basic mono speaker (I have no other speakers connected to my PC). The best thing about it is the smart button, which I've programmed to bring up Siri. Before, when I needed to make a call... pickup phone, unlock, open contacts, find contact (or punch in phone number). Now, tap smart button, tell Siri what I want. Yes, I can call up Siri on my phone directly, but it's just not as simple or easy as tapping that button.Clarity on both ends is great. I've asked a few people on the other end, and nobody can tell I'm on a speaker. There's plenty of volume if you need to fill a medium sized room, and overall sound quality is very good.The speaker claims to work with many conferencing apps, and it does work, but I wouldn't say it's integrated. For example, if I tap the mute button, the speaker mutes, but the conferencing app doesn't. Not really a problem since I'm still muted, but there's always that moment of, "am I muted?" if I look at the app. I just have to remember to look at the speaker which clearly shows you're muted by lighting up all the red LEDs around the perimeter of the device. Speaking of the lights, they're all very well thought out. Lights to let you know it's on, that BT is on. Lights that come up in sequence to show the volume setting, and whether you're on an active call, and lights to indicate the battery level. They're all uniquely different and easy to intuitively understand.I also like that it's easy to turn BT on/off with a tap of the BT button. Connection establishment happens fast, to the point that I can turn it on and answer a call after the phone has started ringing (if I'd forgotten to turn it on previously).I haven't tested battery life since it stays plugged in at my desk. Though, even if it only got half of the 15-hour claimed talk time, that would be more than enough to get me through a typical days calls.The only thing I'd change about the device is the placement of the mute/power buttons. The four buttons I use the most are answer/end/mute and the smart button. I would've swapped the positions of the mute/power buttons so that mute was between answer/end. Then all four common use buttons would be right next to each other. As it is, the mute button is "far away" relative to the other buttons. Of course, this is a very minor nitpick, and doesn't change my overall opinion of it, but there you go.
