Strengths: This is an outstanding product. I have slightly longer hair, and this device is completely hidden and I don't look nerdy wearing it. It has great hi-fi sound, stereo separation and loud volume. It's water/sweat resistant. Great battery life. It has a built in microphone with great sound quality. I love alternately going back and forth between my music and my phone apps on my Blackberry 8830. This is a truly outstanding product and makes my BB 8830 eliminate my need to travel with an ipod anymore. Absolutely amazing experience.
Weaknesses:The controls take a bit getting used to, but function exactly as designed.
Overall Evaluation: I flat-out love this thing. I'm on and off of airplanes, in the car, out of the car, in the gym, wherever, and I'm always connected never missing a call. The voice-activated dialing on my blackberry 8830 works like a charm over this product. I have nothing negative to say, which is a rarity. Worth every penny if you like to converge all the devices in your pocket/briefcase.

Strengths: Nice design. Easy to setup and connect. The buttons are easy to use. The sound is great in stereo mode.
Weaknesses:Volume is a little low. Tight on the ears after 2 hours of use. In phone mode, the volume is really low and sound quality is poor.
Overall Evaluation: The first one I received had problems with the buttons. The vendor quickly exchanged them for me. Over all I give the S9 a Satisfactory rating. I would purchase it again just because of the nice design and style.

Strengths: Has Motorola name.
Weaknesses:Weak reception, and uncomforable.
Overall Evaluation: This is the worst item I have ever bought from Motorola. Low quality compared to my Motorola HT 820 (Great item). You have to stand very still to prevent the signal from breaking up (if it pairs). If it didn't say Motorola on it, I would swear it was a no name item.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: form factor is very comfortable (for my head). Read some complaints about hurting ears, etc., but only experienced after wearing for several hours. Ear/Mic quality excellent. Battery life acceptable.
Weaknesses:Volume control & Mic shorted out on me with in 2 weeks of ownership. Used under normal circumstances & moderate work out situations. Useless for communication can only use as a wireless headphone.
Overall Evaluation: Would not recommend buying this product for it's "sweat resistance". Product does not live up to this claim any more than any other headsets out there & may be worse in this regard. You would think it would work based on how it looks, but no. Making shoddy products like this is the reason Motorola is going out of business. It does work exactly like you'd want it too (form, function, etc.) until it shorts out.
