 not so great November 8, 2007
I got this headset to replace a Plantronics Explorer 330 Easy-To-Use Bluetooth Headset for all Bluetooth Enabled Phones that I washed(which was fantastic btw). Over all the functioning is fine. The wind control does not really work but the sound is generally clear and the battery life is good. However, the earpiece is very uncomfortable it is loose and feels like it is going to fall off. Its ok for short-term use but not something you can really wear for any length of time for example when you are not actually on the phone. I am currently looking into other options because I do not use this headset. It is more convenient to not use a headset at all than to use this one.
 You Can Do Better Than This September 18, 2007

I got this headset about 6 months ago. It worked fairly well for the first four months, although the volume control was somewhat erratic -- nothing that I couldn't live with. However, in the past two months the bluetooth connection drops out unpredictably even though the phone is no more than three feet away at all times. I know that it's not the phone (LG enV) since the connection between it and my Motorola stereo headset never drops.
Aside from that (which is a deal breaker in my book: if I had known that this would happen, I never would have bought this headset), the earpiece is fairly flimsy. I haven't broken it, but I've come close several times. I also noticed that the price on this headset has gone way up since I bought it at $29.99. Why? -- I couldn't tell you. But it's not worth it -- for $43, you can do a whole lot better.
Good Product for the Price July 30, 2007
Had this unit for a few weeks now - previously had 2 Motorola units. It connects readily with my "Q" (much better than the Motorolas did). Construction is a little cheap & cheerful but it is lightweight and sits comfortably on the ear. Lanyard & hoslter great ideas if you are inclined to lose/misplace things (fate of my last motorola bluetooth). Wind guard technology seems to work also.
Negatives - call button stands out and is easily pressed accidentally. Max volume just about OK would appreciate more range. Callers say sounds a little hollow/tinny in use. The 'silicon cap' referred to instructions is not supplied you have to ask them for this (they sent me one on request).
Overall rating good for the price and value for money.
Good buy! June 10, 2007

I still haven't found what I'm looking for. Specifically, I am looking for a bluetooth headset that works well. This is my third headset. Out of the box it looked great. Fits well on the ears. Easy to use. Great price. Holds long charge.
Then the complaints started. While I can hear fine, the people on the other end of the conversation cannot. I might just use this solely for online PS3 gaming, IF they can hear me as well.
The other two BT headsets I have used are the Motorola 500 and 850. The 500 is a cheap but efficient headset. It works fine, but the sound quality is not in the same ballpark as the 850. My 850 was great, but I have problems connecting the charger.
So, I am still looking for the right BT. Any suggestions?
