Aliph’s induction Jawbone Bluetooth headset wowed reviewers when it launched and still regularly impresses now; in fact, it was Apple’s headset of choice for the iPhone while they pushed their own earpiece through the FCC. Now images of the next-generation Jawbone have shown up undergoing FCC testing, with a newly sleek body and more compact charging connector but, fans will be pleased to hear, the same patented audio technology that made the original Jawbone so popular.
Called “Noise Shield” and “Voice Activity Sensor”, Aliph’s technology uses a combination of directional microphones, dynamically adjusted earpiece gain and a sensor which uses the vibrations of your face to track when you’re speaking and cut out extraneous noise.
According to the FCC, the Jawbone 2 will have an earloop and multiple sizes of earplug, just as its predecessor.
