    The Good: The Jabra Stone 2 has a stylish and unique design that encapsulates the headset inside a charger. The fit is effortless, comfortable, and discreet. Updated features include voice guidance alerts and voice controls.

    The Bad: The Jabra Stone 2's audio quality is average at best, with quite a bit of digital noise in outgoing calls. We're not fans of the touch-sensitive volume rocker, and the Stone 2 only fits in the right ear.

    The Bottom Line: The Jabra Stone 2 is undoubtedly elegant with several advanced features to boot, but it does have a downside in performance.

This product does not work well with the new iPhone 4S when using Siri. After verbal commands to Siri, the headset will respond with "call ended". When in fact, no call was placed. Brought this to the attention of Jabra customer service. Their response was "For further assistance you will need to contact app manufacturer or Apple directly". Jabra did not seem interested in fixing the problem, which should only require a simple software update. I would not recommend this product for use with the iPhone 4s.
