5.0 out of 5 stars How does that Microphone work?, December 20, 2000

By	John Valentine (Plymouth, MI United States) - See all my reviews

This headset works great and although the microphone just hangs there on the cord, it picks up your voice great! Try it and you'll find yourself always plugging in when driving!

3.0 out of 5 stars Handy little gizmo, but with drawbacks - and Very BREAKABLE, June 10, 2002

By	mattgb1 "mattgb1" (New York City) - See all my reviews

As a useful device, what I like most about this is its convenience, and the fact that you can carry it in your pocket.

Advantages:

1. It's truly hands free because you can both answer your calls and hang up on them without having to find the cell phone it's attached to.

2. Not quite as breakable as other similar products I've used, but it will still come to pieces within 2-3 months no matter what you do.

The three biggest drawbacks are:

1. (And this one is the worst) If there's any background noise, or if you're outdoors and there's even the slightest puff of wind, then people will have a very difficult time hearing you, and you'll get a lot of annoyed requests to talk without it (to put it mildly)

2. It does hurt the ear after a while, especially if you wear glasses of any kind, because of the added pressure.

3. It slips out of your ear easily

4. Despite advantage #2, above, it will eventually break if you're not very careful with it. I need to keep it attached while I'm rushing around, and sometimes I can't take the time to put it away as carefully as I should, and have to shove it into my pocket or untangle it from something. As a result, its life expectancy is usually under two months for people who use it like I do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very durable, great quality, September 16, 2001

By	the_one007 (Hawaii) - See all my reviews

This earbud came with my 8290 and 3390. I thought I lost it, so I bought a Jabra earset (it was free after rebate after all..). So I found out where this one went - It was in my pocket and I washed it. I took it out, let it dry and it works perfectly! At first the mic didn't work but once I left it out for a few hours it was ok.
That's what I call durable! You can rely on this to last a long time. I'm still using mine even after I washed it! Don't know if it's worth the 24.99 though. That sounds a bit expensive, but for this type of quality it's well worth it!

The Jabra by the way, is collecting dust. The ear gels are really uncomfortable and it falls out of my ear. The on/off button is hard to press, you have to press it hard for it to hang up or use the voice dialing. I'm glad it came out to free after the rebates - Otherwise I would've been out $10 for somethign I would never use! The Nokia brand earbud beats Jabra hands down!
