2.0 out of 5 stars If you want quality..no. Cheap...yes, June 15, 2008

This review is from: Cardo Systems SCALA600 Bluetooth Headset (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I purchased this after the 2 Motorola HS850's died. I had them for years. Unfortunately, Motorola changed what they thought was a good headset and the new ones aren't that great.

So while at a store, I purchased the Scala 600. It was very cheap ($25), looked good and seemed like it had what I wanted.

My BIGGEST complaint is this thing has its own ringer and after I connect, it still continues to ring for another 3-4 seconds in my ear. Even though the cell phone has connected, you can't speak either.

My second complaint (actually tied with first) is it takes 10 SECONDS to turn the unit on if its off. ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? I have to actually answer the phone and then tell people to hang on. Who ever designed this feature is a moron.

My third complaint is range. I can have my cell phone on the opposite side of my body and people can't hear me.

And last, the sound quality (both incoming and outgoing) is horrible. I do wonder if the unit got better reception, if the sound would improve. Sometimes it gets so bad, I remove the bluetooth pair and then reinstall it. Sometimes it Improves things.

Im using a brand new LG VX10000 Vogager. I even replaced the phone once thinking it was the phone.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too much noise, April 26, 2008

While driving ( windows up ) people complained that there was so much noise they couldn't here me. So , I returned for a replacement assuming it was defective. Same complaints with the replacement. Apparently it just doesn't cut it unless you are in a still room . I use it while driving 90% of the time and that's when people tell me to please use my handset cause the noise is unbearable.

2.0 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for. Snap, crackle, pop., May 25, 2008

This earpiece works, holds a charge(long talk time), fairly easy to pair with your phone. But... people say I sound like I'm in an echho chamber and it crackles when I'm listening to people. But, then again it was $20.
So to sum up... Cheap.
Long talk time.
Easy to use.
Bad reception.(good enough to talk while driving)
