  Overall Rating: 4 Star Review

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Works well. Sound is good both ways.

  Weaknesses: A little awkward to put on.

  Overall Evaluation: I really enjoy being wireless. The device is light and pretty comfortable. I was scraping ice from my driveway and the person on the other end heard it loud and clear ... a little too loud. Glad I bought it.

  Duration of ownership:2 Months

  Strengths: Comfortable

  Weaknesses: Poor clarity

  Overall Evaluation: The functionality of any Bluetooth product will depend upon how well it sync's with the cell phone. In this instance, the BT-250 functioned much better than the BT-500. After contacting Jabra, they recommended the BT-5020, which was a great improvement over the BT-500

  Duration of ownership:1 Years

  Strengths: thin, practically weightless, great sound, great price

  Weaknesses: picks up background noise quite easily

  Overall Evaluation: I LOVE this headset and I have worn quite a few. I was a diehard Plantronics fan til I came upon this. The sound quality is like none other - near perfect. The ear bud is what helps in receiving clear sound. Once you get accustomed to them, the controls are FINE. It is so light and thin I am constantly forgetting I even have it on. I'll come into work and pick up the phone and bang it into my headset because I forgot it was there. About how many headsets can you say that? I used to have to take headsets off because some part of my ear was hurting . . . not now. I like this headset so much I have bought five of them for people I felt should have them. They also rate this five stars.

  Strengths: Good fit and volume. Easy setup as far as configuring for use with my phone.

  Weaknesses: Signal strength at a distance. I reccomend keeping the phone on a belt clip while using the headset.

  Overall Evaluation: I bought this for safety while driving I am very happy with this headset. This headset comes with multiple size earpieces and is very comfortable to wear. I have not worn it for long periods of time yet.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Maintains good connection with phone. Volume control excellent.

  Weaknesses: I have used the BT 250 for years. BT 500 is stiffer and does not fit as well. Also miss the vibrate mode.

  Overall Evaluation: Jabra Bluetooth products are superior in my opinion. I have used three other brands and like Jabra the best. The Jabra's connection with phone is the best - it rarely drops the connection. I use the headset almost exclusively and the one negative is that my wireless mouse interferes with the connection.

  Duration of ownership:30 Days

  Strengths: Hands free operation. Good reception range. Affordable price.

  Weaknesses: None so far.

  Overall Evaluation: I purchased this unit out of many others available in the market, because of the Jabra reputation. I wasn't disappointed at all. The battery lasts a long time and I'm now ready for the California law banning the use of cellular phones (using your hands) while you drive. Good deal!

  Duration of ownership:1 Months

  Strengths: Comfortable, limited echo

  Weaknesses: Need to adjust volume each time I reconnect the headsetUnit stopped charging after just 1 month

  Overall Evaluation: First, I've been very happy with the headset. It's comfortable and snug in the ear with the gel piece. After just one month of use, the unit suddenly stopped charging (it lights up but the battery is still completely uncharged when I disconnect it). I've contact the manufacturer and am awaiting a response. I would buy another and hope it's just a malfunction with the charging unit and not the headset itself.

  Strengths: Lightweight, easy to sync

  Weaknesses: Battery length not accurate, disconnects randomly

  Overall Evaluation: Fast shipping, easy purchase, product works and appears to be new but battery length is less than stated. Might purchase again but would probably shop around if I had more time. However, as an emergency measure this was helpful.

  Duration of ownership:3 Weeks

  Strengths: Battery lasts a long time. Comfortable to wear.

  Weaknesses: Picks up noise from a distance and annoys people on the other line. I'm not able to use while driving because it picks up the road noice. Causes your voice to sound much deeper.

  Overall Evaluation: It was an OK purchase. It's strenghts and weaknesses balance each other out. It really bothers me that I can't use this while driving because it picks up the road noise. I have to use a wired headset while driving. Also, since this product amplifies the bass sounds, others may have a hard time understands some words.
