FirstLook The new Jawbone ERA

What I Found

A practical first look at the redesigned Jawbone ERA headset, including the smaller body, charging case, fit.

Jawbone has been one of my go-to brands for Bluetooth earpieces for a long time. I have used several of them, including the Icon and the previous ERA, so when the new Jawbone ERA went on sale, I ordered one right away to see what had actually changed.

The new Jawbone ERA is noticeably smaller than the previous ERA, keeps the familiar hardware layout, and adds a redesigned ear fit system that looks like a real improvement. The optional charging case is also useful if you rely on your Bluetooth headset throughout the day, though it does cost extra.
