3.0 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for, August 27, 2007

This review is from: Jabra BT125 Bluetooth Headset , Black (Wireless Phone Accessory)

Value: The price on this headset is great. I got it for $30 but its price is rapidly dropping on Amazon as well as their marketplace sellers.

Comfort: The headset is comfortable for a few minutes, but extended use is a bit irritating. It fits my ear but is by no means one-size-fits-all. The plastic hook is bendable, though, so it's as accommodating as can be expected.

Earpiece: Sound quality is good as long as you're within a meter of the phone. However, in a car, road noise makes the headset difficult to hear even on the highest volume setting. Turning up the volume also worsens the echo problem, see below.

Microphone: Like all microphones on headsets like this, it is very sensitive. It picks up anything near you very well, including other people. Use in crowded rooms is not recommended. In addition, with the earpiece volume turned up high, callers often complained of echoing, though I could not hear any myself.

Reception: When further away than one meter, or when there are objects (such as a wall) in the way, static becomes a MAJOR issue. Sometimes there's static even right next to the phone, but this is rare.

Features: Not many to speak of. Pairing was simple and the single button interacts with the voice dialing feature on my phone (though I should note that the feature does not work unless I speak very loudly, which makes it impossible to use in public). However, misplaced button presses will call back the last person called on my phone, which makes storing the headset in a pocket while turned on a bad idea.

Overall, I'm going to stick with the headset but I can't whole-heartedly recommend it to others due to its various problems.

4.0 out of 5 stars Farewell Motorola H500, you won't be missed., August 19, 2007

Searching for the perfect Bluetooth headset is akin, I think to some people, the search for the Holy Grail. I don't believe there is ever going to be a Bluetooth headset that is "perfect". It will be, and should be, the "right fit" for the person using.

Pros:
* Sound quality. Now I can hear and those I'm speaking to can hear.
* Speech clarity. Quality with a Samsung Synce is excellent.
* Sensitive microphone. Be careful what you say or do because the people on the other side will hear it. I'm just saying.
* Size. It is tiny. But I've also got a big head so most look tiny to me.
* Price ($33 from Amazon as of this review).
* Adjustable. The ear hook is party bendable allowing customization to your ear.

Cons:
* Sensitive microphone. See above. Picks up road noise in the car especially if your car is loud (not really the fault of the headset but worth mentioning).
* Size (again I've got big ears and haven't quite got it right).
* Cheap feel.

While I haven't found my Holy Grail Bluetooth I have definitely stepped in the right direction ahead of my previous Motorola H500 both in clarity and quality. For the price above you'll be hard pressed to find a Bluetooth solution that has the sound quality and size for the price.

This review is from: Jabra BT125 Bluetooth Headset , Black (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I originally bought the Jabra BT250v b/c it has gotten a lot of awards and it is behind the ear instead of over the ear (a.k.a. more discreet). However, I am a petite woman and it was simply too big for my ear. I am very pleased with this Jabra BT125 - it is over the ear but quite small and the arm that goes behind my ear is bendable and hence fits snugly yet comfortably. Pairing it with my Samsung SCH-a870 was easy & fast. I can hear the person I am talking to very clearly and he/she cannot even tell I am using a headset. At half the cost of other leading high quality wireless headsets, I say this is a no brainer!
