BIG JAMBOX Updated

BIG JAMBOX UpdatedThere is nothing quite like a new firmware update to breathe new life into a particular device, and it also helps you skip out on a product upgrade cycle, too, helping you save more money along the way. It seems that the BIG JAMBOX is shaping up to be like fine wine, as it gets better with age, although do not expect it to physically add on new components to sound better in time, as it can only fall back on a firmware update to get the job done. The latest firmware update will see the Jawbone BIG JAMBOX receive superior battery life compared to before – and we are talking about an additional 2 hours, in addition to improved audio streaming and additional controls.

This particular firmware update for the BIG JAMBOX 2.0 from Jawbone will be free, so you need not fret about staring down at an empty wallet. Not only that, this update will also boast of new AAC support for iOS 6.1, letting your ears enjoy improved audio streaming with fewer dropouts and interruptions at greater distances, among others. It is highly recommended to make an upgrade to iOS 6.1 before proceeding with your BIG JAMBOX’s update.

We look at a lot of devices, and we’ve compiled a list with some of our favorites – we can’t put all of them in there, but at the end of the day, we all have choices to make :) (more…)

How would you change Jawbone’s Big Jambox?

How would you change Jawbones Big Jambox

In the ever-shrinking world of tech, for a company to release a jumbo-sized variant of a product is something of a novelty. Jawbone’s Big Jambox has taken a few courses of steroids, with natty design language and 15-plus hours of battery life. We were certainly fans of the unit, although its audio can get a bit on the shaky side when you turn it up to 11, but that was just in the confines of our review. What’s it been like to use this thing on a regular basis for the last six months? We’re asking you to place yourselves in the stylish shoes of designer Yves Behar and tell us what you’d have done differently.
