Sometime before I bought this bluetooth, I read on here rave reviews about it. The ONE negative review I read said that if anything, it is TOO good- that is, the mic is way too sensitive. It picks up and amplifies every single sound.

Boy, do I wish I had listened to that warning. If you are on this bluetooth and are, say, moving papers around quietly on your desk, your listener will hear EXTREMELY LOUD exaggerated paper rustling screeching into their ear. I can't begin to describe how loudly this picks up every single sound.

My boyfriend has the same bluetooth and I can't stand to listen to him on it. If he does the dishes while talking to me it sounds like world war three on the high seas.

IF you are going to be just sitting there, doing nothing but talking, this bluetooth will be great. The voice quality is superb.

But if you plan to be driving (heaven forfend with the window cracked or vent on), moving around, housework or anything else that makes even slight noise, I can't recommend it.

I got this for using Skype because it was highly rated. It does look very sleek, but there's so much noise when I connect to my laptop that I haven't been able to use it, and I really don't have the time to be chasing down a way to get it fixed or replaced. But I'm disappointed in the purchase.

This is the best bluetooth I ever owned.My first one lasted 3 years before ending up in the washing machine,didn't work after that.The battery lasts along time ,no problems with connection,and I've been very happy wiyh this one.I also owned the Motorola 700 and only went to the 710 model for the upgrade. The 700 was great too.

Product was fine when I finally got one that worked. Vendor seems to have a bunch of rejects or somethings as they come without the retail packaging. My first one was junk so I asked the vender to check the operation of the unit before he shipped. He did so and I was happy with it. The source of these units is definitely to be suspect. Don't even hope that you are getting first quality products. If you are either lucky or persistent you should end up with heck of a deal on a nice bluetooth headset.

Overall good quality and very compact. Most people with Blackberry phones complain that volume is a bit low, but is acceptable.

Works great with bluetooth cell phones. Good audio quality. The boom arrangement is easy to operate and their is no question that the unit is turned off when the boom is closed. Fast shipping and good price.

I really like this wireless headset. It doesn't fit down into my ear so it is comfortable. The volume is great! It connects and disconnects when you open and close the boom which is a great feature. I highly recommend this product!

This is my second bluetooth headset. My first was a cheap jabra that was a Verizon package deal. This headset has a much higher quality sound and build.

Pros:

Clear, Loud Sound! - If you have any hearing difficulties, this headset would be great for you, because it can get so loud my ears hurt! Sound is very clear, but with a little more treble than I would like.

Flip out boom mic as on/off switch - I have always hated having to guess whether or not my headset is on, off, connected, or pairing. With this headset, when the boom mic is flipped out, it is on and automatically paired with your device. When it is closed, it is off. Simple as that. Along with some flashy led colors to go along with it.

Ambidextrious design - This requires a little more work than my Jabra, because you have to remove the ear loop and put it on backwards, rather than just flip it around on a swivel, but it is still nice to have. I usually use my dominant ear, though.

Cons:

Does not stay on your ear well - I have smaller ears, and since this headset is an outside the ear design, there is no inner ear plug to keep it in place, so it relies soley on the ear loop. That is not tight enough to my ear to keep it from tilting away from my head whenever my head tilts left or town. You can still hear the caller, but it is a very unsecure feeling. However, when walking around or during normal daily movement it stays on okay. This may not be an issue for people with larger ears.

Not good signal when trying to go "through" things - If you have line-of-sight with this headset and your phone, it keeps a great signal. However, if something like your body, or thick clothes get in the way, you get some minor distortion. I usually have to turn on one side when laying in bed while using this headset to talk to my girlfriend. If the phone is not in line with the headset, I get distortion. A minor inconvenience, but only during certain situations.

Considering I saw this headset for $80 at Wal-Mart the other day, I think this headset is a great value, and an amazing improvement from anyone holding onto a first generation bluetooth headset.

Works great. No pops or noise like My last one.

Noise suppression works good.

Also turns on and off by flipping out microphone piece, no accidental leaving on like my cheap one, where you had to hold button and listen for double beep.

For the price, which is reasonable, this is a terrific product.

Got the bluetooth with an old manual instruction. It did not get a new bluetooth and the description say it come with travel charger. It came with home charger not car charger, but you could travel with the home charger. Please, don't play with word when you advertise the product. It felt like a scam when I receive a product. The price is good but spend $10 more from somewhere else and you know what you got. I would not recommend buying any product from this company.
