Review on Enhanced Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone by Jabra Drive (U.S. Retail Packaging) by Shane Grosland

Connectivity is my number one concern, and I don't mean initial pairing. It fits perfectly. I mean the numerous daily connections that you need when you get in the car. This model is very, very bad in that regard. How poor? In order to save battery, the device "falls asleep" in standby mode for some time after leaving the car, and I think this is the root of the problem. If you return to your vehicle in standby mode, it will NOT automatically reconnect. Instead, according to the instructions, you need to press the "Answer/End" button. That's absurd. This basically means that every time you get in your car you have to remember to press the answer/call button before you drive off or do it awkwardly and quickly while driving when a call comes in or you looking for a challenge. Could it be more the opposite of how it's supposed to work? It should connect automatically. I called Jabra tech support and explained the problem and they were aware of it but basically said the model was designed that way. I also have a Jabra Tour, the next model in their lineup. Now *this* model works as expected. Every time I get in the car it says "Connected!". The device displays a message to let you know that your phone is connected to the device and ready to use. Also, the Tour's speaker is louder and clearer than the Drive's. Do yourself a favor and spend about $20 extra on the tour. You will save yourself from grief and curses 10 times more. Believe me. Been there, done. I returned the drive and bought another tour.
