i have the mda from tmobile and i love it. just can not deal with wired headsets. i use my fon constantly while i am on the computer. after throwing away several bluetooth wireless headsets (and you know they are not cheap) because no one could hear me i tried one more time and bought the samsung wep200. wow! the day i bought it i went into the local best buy and they had it for $89. i knew i had seen it here on amazon for approx. $40 so i asked if they would price match. the young lady told me that they might and called a manager over. the manager said yes but they would add the cost of shipping to the $41 price. i just had to bring something in from the website showing the price. now because i have the tmobile mda i just pulled up the website right there and showed them the price. i also showed them i didnt pay shipping because i had amazon prime. they complemented me on my mda and sold the headset to me for the $41. i took the headset home and charged it fully..about 1 hour to do it..even thou they said 2 hours. linked it to my fon in about 15 seconds and was set. now as some have stated..the earpiece is different than most. it took some getting accustomed to. i replaced the small with the large and now it just sits perfectly. (note to those that are having trouble with it fitting...try just letting the main body rest against the side of your ear and head instead of sticking out like uhura on startrek. it works much better and almost seems to disappear.) in fact the only complaint i have (if you can call it a complaint) is that is sits so lightly on the ear and is so comfortable that i almost forget its there and if i am outside or my dogs knock me i am afraid it will fall out and i will not notice. i have worn it for over 10 hours straight and didn't even notice it was there...even went to scratch my ear once and knocked it out because i forgot it was there...

the second day i walked out to get my mail and talked to three friends of mine. the fon rang and i answered it. big test, a call on the street with wind and noise and cars and other conversations. i answered and the persons voice was very clear. i asked if she could hear me as i was outside and she said yes..and even said that she couldnt hear anything much other than me...no cars (two went by) no wind and no conversations even thou my friends were standing talking loudly about three feet away. i love the headset and would recommend it very highly to everyone. you will get accustomed to the earpiece and again with the only drawback being that it does not fit overly snug you will be very very happy and so will the other people on the other end of the line.

This headset is the best I have ever used. The only problem I had with this was keeping it in my ear with the rubber hooks provided. I liked the size and quality of this headset so much I wasn't about to return this item, so I went to my local Radio Shack. There you can purchase Jabra Ear Gels for about $8. The attach to this headset perfectly and now the unit comfortably stays in my ear!!

I only gave the Samsung WEP200 bluetooth headset 4 stars because none of the 3 rubber ear pieces fit me. Fortunately, thanks to an earlier reviewer, I bought Jabra ear gels from my local Radio Shack (6 assorted sizes for $8) and found one that fits perfectly. Now, I can walk, talk, and chew gum without the headset falling. Aside from the sound clarity and lightness,I am impressed with how small and inconspicuous it is compared to its larger competitors. With all the complaints I've read, Samsung would do well to replace their rubber ear pieces with ear gels for a better fit.

I tried all the different ear piece sizes but was unable to get it to stay in either ear. My low rating is based on this and not actual performance of the headset.

Bought This WEP-200 Headset awhile back and i haven't had any complaint's about it.It is an excellent Ear-Bud no drop and you can hear the other person crisp and clear worth every penny.

Even though this is my first and only bluetooth headset, and some say I don't have anything to compare it to, this is by far one of the best, if not the best headset you can get here.

When shopping for a headset I spent countless hours trying out headsets, I'm big on sound quality and for this headsets this is one of its biggest pluses.

As far as for fitting, i haven't had any problem keeping in my ear, the only problem was putting it in the proper position so the sound of my voice could be picked up properly, once you find that perfect postion, people can hear you just fine and like I said the sound quality is amazing (to me at least)

I would greatly recommend it.

REVISED REVIEW: I guess I can't change my review to 5 stars, but I would if I could. The ear fit difficulty isn't enough to cost an entire star, as the sound quality, ease of operation and size are all excellent. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a Bluetooth headset. **4 and 3/4 stars (1/4 star for ear fit)**

ORIGINAL REVIEW: Aside from the frequently mentioned "staying in the ear" difficulties, this headset is by far the best I've ever tried (compared to Blueant X3micro and Scala 500). The sound quality is crystal clear on both ends--those I called were surprised that I wasn't using my handset.

I've got this paired with my Samsung SGH-D807 (Cingular's Samsung slider), so maybe that has something to do with it, but neither of the other sets worked very well with my phone--people on the other end complained that they couldn't hear me.

All in all, I've found the set I'm staying with. And for the price, it can't be beat.

I have used this headset now for several months after giving up on bluetooth because most are too big and bulky. This is the perfect size and does not interfer with the earpiece of my glasses.

Audio quality is typically better than the actual headset I use it with. I do find I need to keep the phone within about 20 feet of the headset or voice gets a bit static sounding.

One button to do all pairing, turning on/off, etc. can be frustrating at times as you have to hold it and watch the blue light to activate the right thing.

The little coffin it sits in for charging also doubles as a convienant travel case to protect it.

Due to the lack of a wrap around for the ear, I do find if I am moving a lot that the ear piece can slip out, but for most cases, walking in the hall/around the house and driving, it is perfect.

After going thru many Bluetooth i was recommended by a friend the Samsung WEP200, I purchased one on Amazon and was very satisfied, the sound was clear and loud, very easy to answer a call, and lower/higher the volume. the problem started right away when the Earhook broke in half, in order to charge this Bluetooth you need to detach the Earhook from the Bluetooth and place the Bluetooth in a cradle, I'll repeat, EVERY time you want to charge the Bluetooth you need to detach the Earhook from the Bluetooth place the Bluetooth it in the cradle and when you're done charging it you need to take it out and attach the Earhook again, this thing don't last for more than a week and while i was using this Bluetooth i replaced it 4 times, another bigger issue I had after using it for about 3 weeks the Bluetooth went in to MUTE mode so I was able to hear the caller talking however he wasn't able to hear me because it was on MUTE, luckily I bought it direct from amazon so sent me a new one overnight but the new one I got last again for 3 weeks and the MUTE problem started again, this time I'm returning it for credit and I'll try the Plantronics Voyager 510.
One more thing keep in mind, Amazon is the only place to shop and ONLY what is shipped DIRECTLY from Amazon and not from Affiliates because if you have any problem they send you a brand new one overnight and they don't wait for you to send the defective one first also you have 30 days return policy and the best and easiest way to shop.

Anyone can tell this is a fake product. I've owned several genuine headset and I can tell by the package, the look and the quality of the sound.
