I had ordered an earpiece directly from Nokia for my 6800 for $25, and my cat ate through the cord! So I was glad to find this set that included an earpiece for much less -- and with two other accessories besides!

However, I have been very disappointed. The leather case is only useful if you never open the phone to use the keyboard, and even then it's cheaply made. The charger didn't do much for me because I already have several of those.

The real disappointment was the earpiece! It had poor sound quality on my end. People could hear me just fine, but I couldn't understand them -- it was as if they had covered their phones with pillows and then tried to talk to me -- all muffled and quiet! This was the case on several phone calls with several different people, so it wasn't the other person's phone or the connection. Also, each time, after asking the other person to repeat themselves about a dozen times, I would give up and pull the earpiece and talk directly with the phone, and sure enough -- without using the cheap earpiece the call was clear.

The last straw -- and the part that prompted me to take the time to write this review -- is that a tiny piece of the earpiece plug broke off and got stuck in my phone! It just took me a while, with tweezers and all, to get the piece out of my phone so that I can plug in an earpiece there. And guess what? I'll be plugging in a $25 earpiece directly from Nokia. I guess it's worth the price of the Nokia product after all. Certainly this cheaply made, poorly performing "3-piece starter set" is not worth the price.
