What customers say about "Key Specs"

Jabra Freeway (100-46000000-02) A2DP

The battery lasts for a long time, I think I've only had to charge it like three times in two months.
It holds a charge a remarkable amount of time, which is key.
This is actually my second one, I think I wore out my previous one after nearly seven years it lived it the car even in the heat of summer. It is by far one of my favorite purchases ever.
While not cheap, the Jabbra FREEWAY delivers excellent audio quality for phone calls, which is my primary requirement. I bought it because I have a ten-year old SUbaru that is still very servicable, but wanted a quality bluetooth hands-free setup for my iPhone.

Jabra Drive Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone

Worked only once. Easy to pair with phone.
Never had a problem since I bought this, and the battery last a long time. I have only had to charge it twice since I got it Dec22, 2014. Its now 1-20-15. Great product to use while driving!!! Perfect!
It seems very well made and holds a charge a long time and voice quality is excellent.
The battery last a very long time, but twice it has gone dead with no warning. There is a flashing blue light to tell you the unit is on, irritating at night, and impossible to see during the day.
Also, pairing was very easy - probably the easiest I've experienced with all the various Bluetooth products I've used.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Jabra Freeway (100-46000000-02) A2DP

Nice size -- very small and light, while still feeling sturdily made and good quality.
The sound quality of music through the speakers is very good for their size and the size of the unit overall.
Size is similar one square and the other longer and narrow but I do like the button placement better on the Roadster as well.
The design of the speakerphone is wonderful. Some people might not like it's size, but I have no problem with it.
First, don't believe the description. The actual speakerphone (Freeway) is 4" x 4.5", not the 4.56x6.97, which is size of the box it came in.

Jabra Drive Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone

Though the Jabra unit is small in overall size, it does get fairly loud and the call quality is okay.
I bought one for wife as well, and what was important was the slim size/profile, as one really should not leave anything in a car these days.
Great little device. Based on the cost and size the mic and speaker quality are excellent.
The speaker quality is pretty good given its size. I was little worried about its size and how it would ride on our van's visor (10 years old and a bit loose). But no issues there either. You hardly notice it's there.
Sound quality is tinny and terrible. You'd think they could have used a decent speaker for the size of the device.

What customers say about "Features"

Jabra Freeway (100-46000000-02) A2DP

Speaker is fairly loud and callers sound very good at a reasonable volume.
Music sounds decent as well using only the device speakers.
It also has an FM transmitter feature, and the thing is horrendous. I'm aware of the general issues around FM transmitters, and have used a dedicated one from Belkin with good results.
What sets this device aside is the FM transmitter built in for calls or music. It's a very cool feature but falls short a bit.
The FM broadcast isn't very strong...my older unit sounds twice as good when broadcasting to the radio.

Jabra Drive Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone

The unit is said to give a "voice" warning of low battery, but I've never hear it. (Could be it warned me when the truck was parked and I'd left the unit on.)
Does what i need it to do not impressed with features and directions.
One the plus side, the voice quality, mike sensitivity and noise filtering are good.
The spoken "connected" feature eliminates any wondering about if the connection was established. The hang up feature, press the speaker once, is simplicity itself.
Only time I had it working the volume level was kind of weak. Person I spoke with said reception on his end was good.
