This review is from: Sennheiser VMX100 Bluetooth Headset (Titanium) (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I've owned numerous bluetooth headsets and so far this is the best of them...though still falling short of my expecations.

Without question this thing is super lightweight - almost scary how light it is. When I first put it on, I figured it was gonna be like the various motorola headsets I've had that fall off my ear whenever I turn my head or look down...it didn't happen. The multi-directional pivot on this thing really does make it fit perfectly on your ear, and even with a little agressive head shaking I could not get this thing to fall off.

The on/off feature has been great for maximizing battery life, but if you expect to open the boom, get the headset positioned and then answer the call before it stops ringing you're a much faster human being than I am. If the headset is 'off' I simply answer the hand set and then transfer it to the headset once I get it positioned.

The audio quality...well, hmmm...not sure what to say. The noise cancelling feature is pretty slick, and for the most part deadens background sounds. People can tell I'm on a headset, but when I tell them I'm outside, walking down the ridiculously noisy streets of Bangalore India, they are pretty shocked (they hear very little other than my voice).

The quality I hear from the headset is so / so ... this is my same experience of the Jawbone. There tends to be a lot of interference / crackle, but it's only audible on my end. The volume is also quite low, forcing me to set it to maximum a lot of the time. I gave up on the Jawbone as it wasn't all that comfortable, and the thing looks goofy - kinda like a bandaid on your cheek.

If you're happy with your current headset don't go rushing out to purchase this. However, if you're in the market for a new headset this is as good as anything out there with some cool features that make it a good purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY!!!!, February 14, 2008

This review is from: Sennheiser VMX100 Bluetooth Headset (Titanium) (Wireless Phone Accessory)

I buy on average two to three things, mostly electronic items such as mp3 and bluetooth gadgets, per week from Amazon. I never leave feedback. Call me lazy. I had toleave feedback fro this headpiece. I have 5 differnt bluetooth headpieces. The only one that comes close to this one is the one that everyone else seems to like. The Plantronics 510. The bad part of that one is the power button is hard to turn on and off and with a Treo it doesn't always stay connected for some reason. This got it ALL!! Reliable, easy to use, good quality. You want a good earpiece. STOP LOOKING! This is it.
