I bought this to work with my T608 phone, I was able to get it to pair with the phone fine. When using it with bluetooth as on I can voice dial but it often does not get the correct number. When using it to talk to people they often say that they can hardly hear me over all the static. I left myself a message while using it on in the car and while there is alot more background noise than using the handset its not too bad. That being said I am taking it back because I mostly use it to talk to the wife and she does not like how it sounds when I use it.

Super lightweight and tiny. Sound quality is okay on both ends. One person told me it sounded better than my phone. Another said I sounded like I was in a tin can. Earpiece volume was loud; quality is OK to good. No adjustable boom; the mic points right into the side of my face. Its profile is flat and doesn't follow the curve of your head (if your head does in fact curve like mine). On the plus side I can use it without the ear brace, which I've found annoying to try to fit and adjust on other devices. I removed it and just stick it in and go, Uhura-style, and it feels pretty secure. The charger is the sketchiest part. It does not attach securely to the device and must be positioned just so to maintain the connection with the electrical contacts. Does not include a car charger. Also prone to interference. Much snap-crackle-pop sometimes as I turn my head, or when the phone (Motorola V600) is in my pocket, or when I'm handling the phone itself while using the headset. Overall it does what it says on the tin but leaves a few things to be desired. I will try Logitech's offering and will probably end up returning the Actiontec to Circuit City.

I am from Brazil and I purchased headset at circuit city in my last trip. On ActionTec site the prereqs ( working with all bluetooth devices ).Paired it with my nokia 3650, and couldn't connect to the headset after pairing. Called customer support, and was told the headset doesn't support the 3650. Actiontec should send my money back. They should list the compatible celphones in respect of client.

I bought this bluetooth headset because of the comments on Actiontec website. However it gives so much problems with my Sony t68i. Sometimes the phone would ring and I press the answer button on the headset and the call is disconnected. Still there are times when I am trying to call someone with headset and will get no signal. Also the reception is very poor.

I am not sure if the problem is with connecting to the Sony t68i phones, but this is nothing more than trouble. Before giving up, I will be purchasing my Sony P900 soon, and continue my testing. Right now I am not using this headset.

Tech support hell. Hours on hold. Simple gadgets should not be this tricky. The instructions are simple but my Nokia phone just could not connect, I could see it and pair with it, but it just would not work. Don't do it, ActionTec does not give a damn about customers.

purchased headset at circuit city. charged it, paired it with my nokia 3650, and thought i was ready. Wrong. Couldn't connect to the headset after pairing. Called customer support, and was told the headset doesn't support the 3650. Actiontec should revise their packaging

I recently purchased this item and so far it works as advertized. I had to setup it up as a BT Headset instead of just paiing it with my phone. The sound quality isn't that great but it makes up for that in size and weight. It's very confortable even after wearing it for a long time.

I've tried 4 different bluetooth headsets including jabra freespeak, planatronics m3000, and bluespoon but this one is the best by far! Good quality, nice fit (I popped off the ear around piece and stick it straight into my ear), easiest to connect/use/etc.

It's awesome!
