Very nice review! I just purchased this product from Verizon a few days ago. At first I had a lot of problems with how it fit in my ear, I tried using the earloop but it was too small for my ear and caused me a lot of discomfort after only a couple minutes on my ear. I was concerned about wearing just the earbud with the extension because I was afraid it would fall out however after giving it a try and properly fitting it into my ear it works absolutely amazing and feels very comfortable.
nickcool14 - Thanks for the nice words. Yep, I was the same way. I've tried a couple of different headsets and usually use the ear loop but this is the first one that works without an ear loop...so far, so good!
soulweaponry - Yeah, I didn't mention the "MyTalk" stuff since the site itself is in beta. I just got my invite this week and have tried it out. As of right now, it offers a few other voices to add to the headset. Plus, there are three or four other apps that let you customize what pressing the button for two seconds does. By default, it activates voice dialing. You can change it to do a 411 info call as an example. Nothing to exciting...
I work from home and am on a lot of work related calls so a good headset is pretty important for me. Knock on wood...the Icon is the best I've used so far. We will see in the long term how it holds up...
Spidaaaa - Before the Icon, in order, I had the Sound ID 300 (kept dropping connection during calls), Jabra BT530 (my old standby...went back to this when I got fed up with the Sound ID) and before this, a Plantronics (lost when I moved) and also got a Jawbone 2 as a gift (worked good but to big and bulky).
it does have a2dp support all tou hav to do is go to my talk and update the head set

does it fit people with small ears pretty good

kaoes - they do include small, medium and large ear buds. As for actual fit, I can't really judge since everyone's ear size is different.

Surprisingly good review. It's different to see a youtuber review something and actually put effort into it. Kudos
I would have liked to see you go more in depth with their little app store/voices, but nonetheless, 5 star review

Thanks! That is a lot of headsets. I also had the Jawbone 2 and it worked well but didn't really fit my ear perfectly, no matter what ear bud I used.
