4.0 out of 5 stars Best BT Headset I have tried., August 12, 2006

By 

Chromebook User (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nokia BH-800 Bluetooth Headset (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I tried a few BT headsets and it came down to the Nokia BH-800 and the Jabra JX10. Both units have good audio quality. I also liked that both units are small. Thus, you don't look like you are on your way to a Star Trek convention while you are wearing them.

While I liked the JX10's design over the BH-800, it had trouble understanding my voice commands. I use Microsoft Voice Command with my XV6700 PocketPC phone. I had to speak to the JX10 very slow and clearly to achieve only a 50% success rate in it understanding my commands the first try and subsequent tries. The BH-800 understands my commands closer to 90% on the first try and 99% on the second try. I was also able to speak to it in a more "natural" fashion. I wonder if the Bluetooth 2.0 specification with EDR makes the difference.

Pros:

1. Good audio quality. People can clearly hear me and I can clearly hear them.

2. It's small. It's less "geeky" than some headsets.

3. The neck strap is a nice bonus. The headset stays in place.

4. My Microsoft Voice Command woks very well with the BH-800.

Cons:

1. I don't like the ring tone of the headset. I don't know if you can change it.

2. The neck strap could be longer.

3. I preferred the JX10's look and button layout.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Little Headset, except...., March 8, 2007

I really like the Nokia BH-800. I have a A900 phone from Sprint and with other headsets I frequently lost paring with the headset. I rarely have this problem with the Nokia. My only complaint is the in the ear piece -- it's to big for a normal size ear. I think Nokia had only men in mind when they design the ear piece. Even with the over the ear hook (which is optional) it still not a good fit; however it's a great fit for my boyfriend... but that doesn't help my situation since I got it for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nokia got it, almost!, August 13, 2006

I've bought Bluetooth headsets in the past and didn't like them much. I've used friends, and the one I like (Plantronics Voyger 510) was just too big. Hated the last one I bought (Motorola H3) I ended up taking it back the same day. This one is pretty expensive, but sometimes you get what you pay for.

pros:

volume is great, much louder then the Motorola's I've used

size is good, it fits perfect on my ear.

looks great

pairs quickly with my Motorola Q

love the neckstrap

supports audio streaming if your phone does. I can hear my mp3 ringtones threw the headset.

cons

seems to have a bad problem with noice canceling, people always comment on things in the background, like a TV. But it's not extreme

if it's not paired, and the phone rings it takes a few seconds to pair back up, but this isn't a headset issue, BlueTooth is like this with all headsets.

After about 5 days with it, I love my BH-800, it's going to hard for any company to top this.
