5.0 out of 5 stars Jabra BT-3030 - Just Splendid!, February 14, 2008

By	K. Murray (Indiana) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Couldn't be happier with this stereo headset. Purchased for my wife last week (for Valentines Day) with the hope she wouldn't like it and I could snag it back. Well, that didn't work out as planned and after using it I'm pretty ticked about the whole deal.

We've found this has very good battery life, much greater range than any of our other BT devices, and the sound quality of music, as well as send/receive phone, is better than expected...Having passed the "Dad" test on at least 5 occasions. FYI - my dad is a real pain when it comes to phone call clarity. Offering up all sorts of "you on that headpeice dealie now" comments when calls aren't crystal clear. ((Nokia BT-800 is the only other BT unit to pass this scrutiny))

The supplied phones sound dang good and with my Sennheiser's I'm really sorry the wife isn't playing my game. The unit came with an ac charger, but other than the first charge I used a mini-usb we had lying around. It would be great if you could use while charging, but it charges in 30-45 minutes so not a loss. Battery life for music is well beyond 5hrs (that's how much was on the memory card) + about an hour of phone. I should note the unit flashes red when battery is low and it did so for 2hours and was still jamming. I'll blame that on the battery only having cycled twice at the time.

Some of the review sites have fixated on the Dog-Tag looking unit and seem to skimp on the functionality aspect. Yes, it looks like Dog-Tags - well it has to look like something, why not Dog-Tags. It has no sharps, doesn't snag on things and feels quite sturdy. All in all we're very happy with the form and function. When it was new we (I) spent a great amount of time hitting the buttons and onterwise fondling it because I (we) could. After some time behind the wheel, the layout is rather intuitive and the buttons have raised icons which we now navigate through songs and phone answereing tasks thoughtlessly. Very handy because you will use this with an index finger when worn like a pendant or thumb when operated like a remote. Even the ice cream wiped off easily without a trace. Wifee doesn't have a clue we (I) dipped her present in an after shopping snack.

Highly Recommended.

Have a Great Day

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, with issues, December 15, 2008

By	Roger Davies (Windsor, CO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this to have a slightly less geeky bluetooth headset, with stereo being very important. The sound quality for phone use is reasonably good, and I like how effectively it filters out background noise, both physically with the in ear earbuds, and limiting the noise from my environment to those I'm talking with.

Pairing is mostly very easy. I had intermittent issues getting both my computer and my phone working together initially, but now it's almost seamless. I can be listening to music and a phone call will interrupt the computer music during the call, and then return to the music on hangup. I don't really use the remote control features for music (except volume, which is fine). The answer button works well for picking up calls, but is sketchy for hanging up.

The sound quality for listening to music is OK, but a bit base heavy tending to make everything thumpy. The biggest issue I have is that there is a very noticeable delay in the sound. It is a slight annoyance in phone conversations, but it makes watching video on my computer incredibly annoying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hard of Hearing, February 11, 2008

By	David L. Dougherty - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This device is wonderful. I am hard of hearing and am able to use this device with induction ear hooks which broadcasts my cellphone directly into my hearing aids. I just take out the earphones included with the unit and plug in my ear hooks! This makes a kind of "neckloop" but at just a bit over half what it would cost to buy one. The sound is great.

For the hard of hearing, if you are looking for a good bluetooth device for your cellphone this is it.
