CNET has a review of the Nokia BH-501 and writes – “The BH-501 headset has a fairly standard design that’s meant to be worn behind the neck. Generally we favor this wearing style, as it tends to be both secure and comfortable. The foam-covered ear pads are designed to rest against your ear, rather than inside them, so they slip on and off with ease. We had mixed feelings about the small rubber protrusions that arc over the top of the ear. While they prevented the BH-501 headset from slipping off accidentally, they began to rub against our ears somewhat uncomfortably after long wearing periods. Your experience will depend on your own personal preferences, however, as users with smaller ears didn’t report the same issues.”

Kyocera Wireless Bluetooth headset Review at CNET
May 10th, 2007 | Posted by in Bluetooth Headset | Kyocera - (1 Comments)
CNET has a review of the Kyocera Wireless and writes – “This Kyocera Stereo Bluetooth Headset consists of two parts: a slim and compact pendant, which contains the main hub of controls, and a lanyard with the two earpieces attached to it via two short wires. You are meant to wear the lanyard around your neck with the pendant hanging down against your chest. This arrangement felt a bit awkward after awhile, as the pendant kept swinging back and forth if we moved around a lot, and this is even after we clipped the pendant onto our shirt. That said, it works just fine if you don’t wear it for any rigorous activity such as running or jogging.”
Aliph Jawbone Bluetooth headset Review at MobileBurn
April 30th, 2007 | Posted by in Aliph | Bluetooth Headset - (1 Comments)
MobileBurn has a review of the Aliph Jawbone and writes – “As well as the outstanding audio and sleek looks, the Jawbone is very comfortable. The range of fitting accessories it comes with means there is a secure, comfortable fit for most people. The ear loops are shaped specific to the ear you wear the headset on, with two large and two small ear loops included, one of each for the left and right ear. The ear loops themselves are comfortable and contour nicely to the shape of your ear, and the part that is against your ear is covered in a nice soft rubber. The headset can be worn without these ear loops, and the Jawbone is the most secure and comfortable headset when used without ear loops that we have seen to date.”
Plantronics Pulsar 260 Bluetooth headset Review at CNET
April 24th, 2007 | Posted by in Bluetooth Headset | Plantronics - (0 Comments)
CNET has a review of the Plantronics Pulsar 260 and writes – “The headset looks like a pair of regular earbuds, except that it has a mic and call control button in the middle, which you can use to answer and end calls. The noise-isolating earbuds are the kind that rests inside the ear, so it’s a good thing that Plantronics included three different earbud covers to accommodate different-size ears, resulting in a very comfortable fit. The headset also has a small clip along the cord, which you can use to position the mic closer to your mouth, like on a shirt collar. However, we did find the cord a little cumbersome to wear since it is so long (about 36 inches in length).”
Blueant T8 Bluetooth Headset Review at MobileBurn
April 22nd, 2007 | Posted by in BlueAnt | Bluetooth Headset - (0 Comments)
MobileBurn has a review of the Blueant T8 and writes – “Because of its size and shape, the T8 is a very sturdy headset, and the finish on the unit renders it quite scratch resistant. There is the option of wearing it with or without the ear loops, but we found it to be a little uncomfortable and insecure without them. With one of the two optional ear loops on, the headset was nice and snug and didn’t feel like it was going anywhere in a hurry. The ear-buds did cause some discomfort when worn for long periods, as they are in-ear pieces and protruded a fair way into the ear. For shorter term use we had no problems, as they do have soft covers over them. We also found using the MFB while wearing the headset caused a little discomfort as it pushed the ear buds further into the ear, though it wasn’t uncomfortable enough for this to be a deal breaker.”
Samsung SBH170 Bluetooth Headset Review at CNET
April 11th, 2007 | Posted by in Bluetooth Headset | Samsung - (0 Comments)
CNET has a review of the Samsung SBH170 and writes – “The Ever Win SLX-800 Bluetooth headset has quite a minimalist design. Clad in black plastic with silver accents, the SLX-800 is long and slender (2.2×0.6×0.9 inch) and weighs less than an ounce. Right in the middle of the headset is the aforementioned slider boom mic that can be slid out to activate the headset and slid back in to turn it off. The slider was very easy to slide out and in; with a slight click that locks it in place after either action. Along with turning the headset on and off, the sliding boom mic can also be used to answer and end calls; extracting it will automatically turn the headset on and answer an incoming call, while retracting the slider will terminate a call and automatically turn the headset off.”

MegaAccy M1300 Bluetooth Headset Review at CNET

CNET has a review of the MegaAccy M1300 and writes – “The MegaAccy M1300 looks like a generic Bluetooth headset on the surface: small, black, and a little boxy. Encased in a lightweight plastic, the M1300 measures only 0.7 inch by 1.8 inches by 0.5 inch and weighs less than an ounce. Because it is so small, it appears very inconspicuous when worn, which we really appreciate. The M1300′s simple design boasts a rectangular multifunction button in its center, a blue indicator light below it, and volume buttons on the right spine. While the multifunction button is tactile and easy to press, the volume buttons are rather tiny and feel a little too squishy for our taste.”
Motorola H9 Miniblue Bluetooth Headset Review at CNET
April 4th, 2007 | Posted by in Bluetooth Headset | Motorola - (0 Comments)
CNET has a review of the Motorola H9 Miniblue and writes – “The Motorola H9 Miniblue Bluetooth headset is quite possibly the smallest Bluetooth headset we’ve seen. Measuring only 1.2×0.8×0.5 inches (or 1.2×0.8×1.4 inches, if you include the length of the eartip), it is barely larger than a quarter and weighs less than an ounce. Clad in a stylish black-and-silver color scheme, its entire front face houses the multifunction button, which glows blue when activated. On its left and right spine are the volume controls, which can be re-oriented depending on your preference. You do this by pressing both the Call button and the volume button you wish to assign as the “volume up” control until the indicator flashes twice. The multifunction button is large and gives a satisfactory click when pressed, and though the volume buttons are much smaller, they are sufficiently raised above the surface so that they, too, are easy to find and press.”
Jabra BT8010 Bluetooth Headset Review at CNET
March 23rd, 2007 | Posted by in Bluetooth Headset | Jabra - (0 Comments)
CNET has a review of the Jabra BT8010 and writes – “The BT8010 has quite an attractive black tapered design with a prominent silver jog wheel above the OLED display. The jog wheel lets you scroll through the contacts listed on the phone, or you could use it to control the headset’s volume. Within the jog wheel is a multifunctional button that in addition to letting you answer and end calls, also lets you play and pause music. The headset’s right spine is home to a menu button, a mode button, and an on/off slider switch that can be slid downward to activate pairing. The menu button lets you access the recent call list, the phonebook, and the settings menu. The mode button simply lets you toggle between phone and music mode.”
Motorola S9 Bluetooth Active Headphones Review at CNET
March 15th, 2007 | Posted by in Bluetooth Headset | Motorola - (0 Comments)
CNET has a review of the Motorola S9 and writes – “Sleek and aerodynamic, the S9 weighs less then an ounce, which makes it one of the lightest stereo headphones we’ve seen. It also employs a simple, behind-the-head design that isn’t clunky and doesn’t look too conspicuous when worn. The rearmost portion of the headset, which holds the power button and charger jack, is the largest part of the S9 at almost an inch wide, but the ends connecting the earbuds taper to a slim diameter of .25 inch. We tested the red-and-blue version, but it also comes in a more subtle gray-and-black model as well. The S9 is water- and sweat-resistant, so you won’t have to worry about wearing it during a hard workout.”
SoundID SoundFlavors Bluetooth Headset Review at Infosyncworld
March 14th, 2007 | Posted by in Bluetooth Headset | SoundID - (0 Comments)
Infosyncworld has a review of the SoundID SoundFlavors and writes – “As we are thankfully not hard of hearing, we’re not sure if we’ve understood the full effect of the “moderate sound enhancement,” but to our ears, it could not possibly justify a price four times higher than other, better headsets. Though the headset was admittedly loud enough that we could hear callers while the subway approached, they certainly could not hear us. Additionally, the charging cradle had serious problems keeping contact with the headphone, and the additional accessories, which may have added value to the headset as a walkie-talkie or hearing aid.”
