CNET has a review of the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 and writes – “We’ve grown accustomed to not associating wires or cords with anything Bluetooth, but the stereo HBH-DS970 is an exception. A durable cord extends from the headset’s control pod to form a lanyard worn around your neck with the pod hanging against your chest. The twin earpieces connect to the lanyard via two short wires. Though we got used to the wearing style eventually, the arrangement can get a bit cumbersome, and it was only comfortable if we weren’t moving around much. In other words, this isn’t a headset for the gym. Also, the location of the call handling button just below the left earpiece was rather awkward.”

Infosyncworld has a review of the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 and writes – “Small, yet powerful; Sony Ericsson’s HBH-DS970 delivers excellent audio through comfortable earpieces with an easy-to-use interface and enough battery juice to last all but the most avid users a day. Our only gripe with the headset is its lack of a clothes clip, as its pendant design will cause it to bounce uncontrollably around while you walk or land it in a bowl of soup; if this isn’t a problem, go fetch – you won’t regret.”
