Taking audio quality to a whole new level, the Jabra FREEWAY features a three speaker system – a first-ever in the category – along with HD Ready Voice, ensuring superior audio quality on both ends of a call. It provides unique versatility as both a device to be used inside or outside the car and for both calls and listening to music with any device – a tablet, phone, mp3 player or video game console. The Jabra FREEWAY features an intuitive design and a complete hands-free experience. Once the Jabra FREEWAY is clipped to the car’s visor, it automatically turns on when the car door is opened and then helps pair the device to a mobile phone. You can then sit back with your hands on the wheel and use your voice to solicit all kinds of commands – making, answering, ending, redialing or rejecting calls – without touching the phone. And once a conversation is finished or a destination reached, the FREEWAY automatically shuts off so there is no need to worry about saving battery life for the next use. The Jabra FREEWAY also comes with a free one year subscription (valued at $59) to Voice Assist, a voice controlled app that can be used with any type of mobile phone. With Voice Assist, calls and commands can be performed all by voice controlled communication, allowing you to call, send or respond to emails and text messages, or post to social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter, all by voice. Those features combined with Voice Guidance, which communicates pairing instructions, battery level and connection status, and Caller ID, provides a truly hands-free experience. Other key features include Virtual Surround Sound, delivering superior audio quality and rich, crisp, full stereo sound anywhere your day takes you – at home, in the car or at a friend’s house – and A2DP for playing music and podcasts or listening to GPS directions, long talk and stand-by times, and connection to two Bluetooth devices at same time.

Why did I buy three Jabra Freeway Bluetooth Speakerphones
This is a review for Jabra FREEWAY Bluetooth SpeakerphoneI’m not one to take my time to write reviews, but after purchasing three of these speakerphones I thought maybe it would be helpful to tell you why this is the best speakerphone I have ever used.We live in California and, by law, have to have our Cell Phones connected by Bluetooth if we use them in the car. I have probably used 4-5 different brands and configurations in the past 5 years – all with mixed results, until I came across the Jabra FREEWAY Bluetooth Speakerphone. I really dislike using in-ear Bluetooth devices (for many reasons, but mainly because they interfere with hearing and make you look like a . . . . ). Speakerphones I have used in the past (including the less expensive Jabra products) seemed to never clearly pick-up my voice and transmit it to the caller. When I purchased my first Jabra FREEWAY Bluetooth Speakerphone (after reading a glowing CNET Review) I started using it as soon as I charged it for a couple of hours. It is the easiest, most user friendly product I have bought in a long time.Getting up and running requires:1. Charge unit (USB)2. Turn on Cell Phone and put in pairing mode3. Turn on Jabra FREEWAY Bluetooth Speakerphone – it will find the phone and announce “Connected”4. That’s it, your done.Now to use it you only have to do one thing and remember 2 words:1. Attach the Speakerphone to your visor and turn it on.2. Remember 2 words when it announces by name an incoming call. a) Answer (connects you to an incoming call) or b) Cancel (phone goes straight to you voice answer message).It really is that easy. There is a lot more that the Speakerphone will do, and there is a one year subscription to a second party company that keeps all your contacts + more so you can call one number and transfer to anyone in your contacts, send text, etc. But you really don’t need to know or use any of that.Oh, I forgot, the main reason I like the Jabra FREEWAY Bluetooth Speakerphone is that my clients have no clue that I am even on a Bluetooth device when I talk to them in the car. No extraneous noise, no wind noise, just a clear voice. That, plus the ease of use is why I keep buying more of these and giving them to my wife, children, etc.Did I mention that once you turn the Jabra Freeway on you don’t have to touch/recharge it for a month or more (my experience, moderate use). It turns itself on when I get in the car, and turns itself off when I exit (motion detector).Pros: All of the above. Plus, iTune music sounds pretty good through the 3 speakers and podcasts are great (you can also transmit the music/podcast to you FM radio) – the Speakerphone “knows” to to stop the music/podcast if a call comes in.Cons: It takes a couple of minutes for the speakerphone to turn-off automatically when you you leave the car. For a short time, if you are fairly close to the car (in you home or office) the unit still picks-up calls. This has happened to me only once, and my iPhone asks if I want to not use the Bluetooth on the screen, so it really is a minor annoyance.

Rock solid with amazing battery life
I’ve had this for about 3 weeks now, and the functionality with Siri has been spot on. I don’t bother with any of the built-in voice commands since Siri does what I need just fine and with no additional learning curve.It’s been on for 3 weeks and I’m still around 65% battery (although admittedly I don’t spend *lots* of time talking). The motion sensing works great — I would hate to have to remember to turn it on and off. Other bluetooth auto-off devices rely on your phone being out of range which can be hit or miss when your car is nearby in the garage. This unit has no problem figuring out I’m out of the car.The audio streaming works fine, although I prefer to use the aux in on my car stereo for that. For you iPhone users (mine is a 5s), the good news is that when you get in the car the Freeway says “connected” yet when you plug in the aux cable the phone is smart enough to know that it should play music through your stereo but calls through the Freeway. The auto muting of sounds still works perfectly even though they are getting routed to multiple destinations. This was a pleasant surprise. I believe this is all a function of the phone, though, and not the Freeway so YMMV. Based on my prior experience with Android phones this might not work quite so smoothly, again depending on the particular model of phone. All I can say for sure is that with an iPhone 5s (and I’m guessing any iOS7 device) it works great.I tried the FM transmitter mode and found it to be far less great than just using the built-in speaker. Didn’t matter to me so I didn’t deduct a star.If I had any complaint it would be that occasionally the full-duplex operation is a little iffy. In other words, if someone is talking to you and you talk over them, the onboard mic stays muted and the other person doesn’t hear what you said. This is most noticeable at higher speeds when there is a lot of noise in the car. I suspect the auto-mute detection struggles a bit in that environment. I *almost* deducted a star for this but the rest of the product is so solid that I can’t bring myself to do so.I can’t comment on the built-in voice commands because as I mentioned earlier I prefer Siri.All in all I have been pleased enough to buy one for my daughter (who loves it too) as well as recommend to my friends. If you don’t have a hands-free thing like this for your car and are fumbling around with headsets like I did for years do yourself a favor and buy this thing. If you’re like me you’ll be kicking yourself for not having done it long ago.

I’ve been a Jabra user in the past, so I was expecting another good product when I bought the Freeway. What I hadn’t expected was how fantastic the product is!? The crystal clarity of sound whether when connected to the phone or when streaming through to the car’s stereo over FM; the ease of connectivity & the fact that it seamlessly connects to 2 devices (genius!), the slick looks, voice commands, battery life between charges … I could go on! All in all, a winning product from Jabra!

The sound clarity of this product is amazing, even though the FM connectivity is not the best , it can easily keep up with some of the best FM transmitters in the market.

Utmärkt ersättning för den radio som finns i andrabilen,, där sysftet främst är att ha handsfree tillgång till telefonen
