5.0 out of 5 stars These eargels make the Icon the best headset on the market!, June 23, 2010

Before I got the Jabra Eargels, I wasn't that excited about my Jawbone Icon. The call quality was great on both ends, but only if I was in a near silent environment. And when I could bear the discomfort to actually wear it. Now that I've slipped these eargels on, I can confidently say the the Jawbone Icon is the best bluetooth headset on the market! The Jabra gels are desined to fit your ear, and to do so comfortably. There are designed to funnel the sound into your ear(my description, not Jabra's) and they do that extremely well. I no longer am forced to have the volume up to the max by default.

As for comfort, another home run. As I hinted at earlier, my Jawbone Icon with the provided earbuds were rather uncomfortable. It hurt my ear, and I was forced to wear the ear hook for added security. Now, with my new Jabra Eargels on, my headset is comfortable and secure! I do not need to wear the hook anymore, as the Jabras really are designed, and designed well, to stay in your ear. Also, I have tried wearing my headset for an extended period of time(an average work-day) and I didn't have the slightest hint of discomfort. It was secure enough to stay in my ear without the hook, and comfortable enough for me not to know it was there(except for the streaming Pandora Radio thru it :P).

I would definitely reccommend the Jawbone Icon to anyone, but only with the Jabra Ear Gels. I know I'm talking about a different product here(The Jawbone Icon) but only because the Eargels make the Icon worth it.

So TL;DR(= The Bottom Line): The Jabra Eargels are great. Comfortable, conveinent, and functional. I would reccommend the highly for any headset that they fit, and could use s replacement earpiece, and definitely for the Jawbone Icon! Well worth the price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Made for the Jawbone Icon, but fit for your ear may vary., August 25, 2010

This product works fits perfectly with the Jawbone Icon, provided you do the following:

- Replace the rubber ear piece with the small donut shaped one (NOT the smallest cylinder shaped one) that comes with your Icon (You did save the other ear pieces, right?).

- THEN install the Jabra Eargel over it.

It will not slide around. In fact, it's even more stable than what Aliph includes in the box.

Now for the caveat:

- The Eargel fits the Icon perfectly, but it MAY NOT fit your ear perfectly. Remember, it's a mass produced product, and one size definitely doesn't fit all (in some cases, three sizes don't fit all). I got lucky and the large size fits well with my ear, the Icon's rubber nib still touches my jaw, and I can wear it for many hours with no soreness or pain. For my coworker, the large size fits a bit tightly and gets painful after a couple of hours. So the medium works for him even though it's a bit loose. For a perfect fit, you'll need to get a customized earpiece (~$80 at AverySound.com). If you have a friend who has these, you should ask to try them out before you buy them, (oh, and use alcohol wipes to clean it before and after you try your friend's Eargels)

Pros:
- Fits Icon perfectly when set up the way I described above
- Sound is even louder in the ear, so you don't need to turn up the volume
- If the Eargel fits, it's awesome and doesn't fall out.

Cons:
- Fitting your own ear is hit and miss. Only custom molded kinds (like those at [...]) will ensure a perfect fit.
- Sound is even louder in the ear, so you need to turn down the volume.

This review is from: Jabra Eargels for Aliph Jawbone Icon The Thinker (Electronics)

I decided to try these since I've been finding the stock peaces for the Jawbone icon to be either somewhat painful or not secure enough fitting.

These eargels come paired (one for each side) and in three different sizes. Unfortunately for me, the small ones are way too small, the large ones way too large, and the medium ones a little too small. So none of them fit really well.

So watch out. They're reasonably priced enough to give them a try, but it's a real hit and miss whether or not you'll find a secure enough fit among them.
