Reviewed by: onthereboundUpdated: 16-Jul-08 Strengths: Simple pairing with iPhopne 3G, operation is simple enough you really don't need instructions, small in size, sound quality is excellent, low price Weaknesses: Instruction manual (downloaded) is not really clear at times, lacks even simple instructions in Quick Start guide like charging! Overall Evaluation: This is a great Bluetooth headset. The price is great, it works as well as the twice as expensive Jawbone 2, so you can't beat that. It is lacking in instructions (even from the website). The product's light system doesn't make it clear what mode the device is in, since it goes into standby mode so quickly the lights, even if you know what the color means, disappears. It means you have to rely on your Bluetooth device to even known when you have it turned on. A beeping sound would be nice as a compliment to the lights and would make the device's status more clear. Overall, the best value in Bluetooth headsets. It's incredibly light (10 oz.) and it is small in size. It's a great deal. It got the same rating as the Jawbone 2 on Cnet, an 8.3, but didn't get the editor's choice. I'll save the $70 and not get the editor's choice and something that looks like a earing for a headset! |

Reviewed by: ctctcUpdated: 10-May-08 Strengths: Small, sleek, lightweight, well functioning, nonbreakable ear gel. Weaknesses: Ill positioned on/answer button, microphone rubs against cheek, in-the-ear gel too small. Overall Evaluation: It's amazing that we have come to this point, but here is a gorgeous piece of technology which actually performs as well as its advertising says it does. It is small, sleek, and lightweight. Its audio quality is clean and clear, and it seems to have ample volume to handle a variety of noisy environments. It's in-the-ear gel piece goes the extra mile with its additional loop of gel which holds the device in my year without the use of an external ear loop. On the down side, it is awkward to engage the on/answer button without pushing the device into the side of my face. At 6'2" in height, my ears are at the upper limits of being too large for the largest of the in-ear gel pieces provided with the product. Because of this the microphone sometimes rubs against my cheek. All-in-all this is a solid device and I am pleased with my purchase. |

Reviewed by: VideoGamePlayerUpdated: 14-Mar-08 Strengths: SizeFitAudio quality Weaknesses: None Overall Evaluation: I had been waiting for a small in ear headset that didn't have to use a wrap-around the ear style clamp. This fit the bill and works great. It really is pretty small (smaller than any other similar headset) and I love it. Audio call quality has been actually better than expected and blows away my old Motorola headset. I would recommend it. |
