Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Designed specifically for convenience and comfort, the FreeSpeak BT250v lets you talk hands-free and wirelessly on your cell phone via Bluetooth technology. The lightweight, contoured device fits securely on your head, works with either ear, looks great, and is simple to set up. Enhancements over the popular BT250 include a convenient vibrating alert and a handsome new black color.

Weighing less and an ounce, the FreeSpeak BT250v is constructed from a soft, sound-absorbing elastomer material that reduces distortions, resulting in crisp sound quality. The earpiece also features the new Jabra MiniGel, a soft, ergonomic gel tip that channels sound directly into your ear for better reception, improving your ability to hear conversations clearly, even in noisy environments.

The device works up to 30 feet away from your mobile phone, so you can talk and walk freely even if your phone is inside your briefcase, pocket, or across the room from you. With the BT250v, voice dialing, call answer/end, redial and call transfer are all just a touch of a button away. The headset also provides easy, intuitive volume controls, and features LED and audible status indicators. You'll get an average of up to 7 hours talk time and 200 hours standby on the BT250v's rechargeable batteries.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sounds As Good As a Wired Headset, August 18, 2005

This review is from: Jabra UJC250 2.5Mm Handsfree with On/Off Butto (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I've had quite a few bluetooth headsets over the past couple of years, and this is my favorite. I currently go back and forth between this one and the Motorola HS850, another top headset. In my opinion, the Jabra 250v edges out the Motorola HS850 in a couple ways:

1) The Jabra is easier to hear. The earpiece is an earbud style on the Jabra, while the Motorola has an on-the-ear style speaker. My first thought when I bought them was that either one should work fine. But the Motorola is very hard to hear because it sits out on top of the ear. And if there is any background noise it's even worse. On the other hand the Jabra excels at being easy to hear, especially when there is background noise (such as car noise, people talking, etc.) because the earpiece is set slightly in the ear. And for the ultimate in hearing clarity, the Jabra ships with two styles of rubber covers for the earpiece, and one really sets in the ear, much like a good pair of earbud headphones.

2) The Jabra is more comfortable on the ear. The Jabra sort of hangs over the ear, and behind, with the microphone pointing forward. For me, after a few minutes, I don't even notice it's there. The Motorola clips *to* the ear, on the top flap of the ear, and to me just feels a little in the way, and a little floppy.


One thing I really wish the Jabra had is an easier way to turn it off and on. You have the press the on/off button for about 5 seconds to switch it, which can get a little old. The Motorola has a super slick on/off method: you just flip the microphone boom down over the earpiece.

CONCLUSION: Great sound. Great battery life. Very good comfort. An easy on/off switch and I'd be thrilled.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased with this headset, July 19, 2005

I recently got my first Bluetooth phone and based on a few reviews I read online and the recommendation of the phone-store owner I picked this headset. I use it with a Motorola Razr. They work together quite well. This is an ear-bud type headset meaning it's slightly less comfortable but far more stable and better sounding than the flat ones. If there were a warning with this headset it would be not to buy it online. Mine came, in a sealed package, with the wrong power adapter. It was very easy to remedy this in the phone store, but would have been difficult had I bought it online.

Pros:
*Excellent sound quality both for myself and the person with whom I'm speaking
*The volume can be increased so that the conversation is clear even with background noise
*Very easy to set up with the phone
*Seems to have decent battery life so far
*Seamlessly works with the phones voice-dial feature
*Answer, end and voice-dial all done with a single button

Cons:
*After a few hours (more than 2) of wearing the headset it irritates the backside of my ear.
*No way to tell how much battery charge I have left
*The phone and headset must be kept on the same side of the body for the best sound
*I would really love it if this earpiece had a USB mini charger and didn't need a charging cradle

5.0 out of 5 stars If you need to use this in a noisy environment, this is the one to get!, July 16, 2005

I drive a tractor trailer for a large shipping company (a 2005 Kenworth T800) and needed a headset to use while at work. I tried a Motorola HS801 and HS850, but found they were not loud enough to hear in the high ambient noise environment of a semi-truck.

The BT250v has a noise cancelling microphone, which effectively keeps the conversation quiet for whom I'm talking to, and the in the ear design insures I can hear every word being spoken to me. I am really impressed with this headset, I drive 2500 miles every week, the long battery life is great and it's comfortable enough to leave on your ear all day.
