I can't speak to the experience others have had on this headset, but I've not had the problem with echo and I certainly don't dislike the design. Everyone's ear is different, however, so it is entirely possible that while it is quite comfortable for me and sounds fine, for someone else it may be uncomfortable and not work well with their phone.

I use this with a Motorola VE240 and it works just fine. No hint whatsoever of the echo another reviewer complained of (though I'm sure that their experience was precisely as they reported it). So I the moral here is that there is some risk to getting this headset. It could well be that it will work fine for you and fit fine, as it does for me. Or it is possible that it will work poorly and fit awkwardly.

I suppose that you could always give it a try and return it if it doesn't work for you.

This bluetooth works well. I like the technology, and the hands-free calling is wonderful. I love not having to press numbers on my phone to call someone--a very good feature when driving. However, I hate the design. The earbud is much too big for my little ears. They should have made different sized earbuds so that you can choose which is more comfortable. One size does not fit all. The same goes for the stringy earpiece. If I don't wear the attachment, the bluetooth falls out of my ear. With the attachment, it still falls out, so I have to stick it under my glasses to stay on. As far as technonlogy goes, it works. But in functionality, this device fails. I prefer Plantronics because they include different sized earbuds and include the same technology. But if you are willing to cope with the huge ear bud, it is an okay device for under $30.

Overall, I like the headset so far. The only complaint I have is that my wife says that she gets an echo on the other end.

I like that it has volume control and it gets loud enough for me to hear people when driving. This may seem like a given but the last two headsets I've used did not get loud enough and I'd have to use one hand to push the headset into my ear so I could hear.

It seems to have a decent battery life but I don't use it enough to know for sure.

I received this headset from Amazon in the "reduced packaging" thing they offer. The instructions were a hardly readable xerox copy and the headset was severely scratched up as if it had been scraped across concrete. I never bothered to return it because I intended to use it as a backup.

Two Motorola headsets later, this thing is still going strong and I use it as my primary headset. Blemishes aside, it works wonderfully. The volume is good. I can talk continuously for about 6 hours, and it'll standby for about 4 days.

I paid $14 for it.

This bluetooth is not the best I've bought but it worked well for a while, but after a couple drops and hits and no longer does it have good battery. I had it for less than a two months and the battery life (full) would last about 30 min. The sound quality is great and the look is okay and for the price its fine but the battery life is no good. I don't know if it was because of those hits but I wouldn't recommend it.

Excellent clarity on headset. Easy to pair. Only problem is the headset doesn't come with extra ear hooks and they are hard to get through the manufacturer. Otherwise, it's a great buy for the price.

I got this one for only $15 with a great functionality and very reliable gadget for my cell. You will never regret to have one of this.

This headset was a failure for me in 3 different ways: (1) it was uncomfortable, the ear hook is not adjustable, so if your ear's geometry doesn't match the dummy Samsung used to form this thing, the headset will never sit right; (2) the feedback echo was awful and only by reducing the volume to the point where the sound was very soft would the echo go away -- but that made the headset nearly useless on the freeway, making it particularly useless to me; and (3) the ear hook broke after about a month, just snapped off at the point where the rigid and the flexible parts of the hook meet.

On the plus side, the noise cancellation does work and people I talked with on this headset said the sound was clear from my side. However, that very same noise cancellation had enhanced and amplified their own voices creating a very distracting echo.

Even though this device may be under warranty, I am not interested in replacing it because I consider it to be inferior to other headsets I've used

I am using WEP700 for last few days but the caller on the other side report an echo. Then I have to call them back and then things are fine. I am using it with my Blackberry. Don't know if this problem is with BB or with the headset. Will wait for few more days and if things remain same then will return it.
