Which bluetooth headset do you use?

I don't know which headset I should use with my MDA Pro.
I'm a Plantronics fan, but Jabra also makes good Headsets. What do you think about the new Jabra with LCDisplay? It would be a good complement to use the closed Universal.
Did anybody use this new Jabra?

What model Jabra? the BT800? That one has the number display for called ID. It's good. I did not think i'd get use to it, I prefer the older bt250 style, but it's not bad at all and supports voice dialing.

i got the jabra's BT800 and SE Akono HBH660.. i think i like the bt800 better

@ GM: Is the display a big helper? Does it only show the number, or ist it possible to see the name either?

I am using the Motorola HS850 and it seems to work very well with JasJar.

Plantronics hasn't really released any new BT headsets. I'm still using my old M3000 with the MDA II. Try out Jabra since they seem to be the market leader for BT headsets.

bluetooth ...
i've used several BT headsets and the best ones i've used are from SonyEricsson ... I currently use both HBH-300 and HBH-608 and they both work fine on my XDA 2s ... the only thing i've noticed (comparing my XDA 2s with my SE P910i) that the bluetooth isn't as strong compared when i use them on my SE Phone... in comparison with other headsets, i think Jabra has been a good competitor as well as nokia ... i also have the O2 BT headset which is nice and small but the signal is really poor ...

I currently use an SE Akono HBH-300 and had an HBH-65 - they both work fine with my XdaII, though the 65 had crap battery life.

I am using the Oakley Razrwire glasses with my Jasjar 95% of time... Bluespoon AX 5% of time. BT has worked flawlessly on my Universal. I haven't had it drop connection not once.

number only

It's a shame that the JASJAR only sends the caller number to the headset and not the contact name.
I've tried my BT800 on my SE P910i and it displays the contact name when used on that device.

@ Triband81: Plantronics released a whole bunch of new interesting Headsets:
Voyager 510, with extended system für "normal" wired phones
Discovery 320
Discovery 640, only 9g, interesting charging solution

I ordered mine yesterday.
The Jabra BT800 sounds very interesting because of the display. But it lokks very large on the photos.

i think the bt800 needs the handsfree profile instead of the headset profile w/c jasjar has to display the actual contact name (if you check out jabra's website, almost all ppcpe's are not compatible with bt800). its either jabra released a new firmware for the bt800 or we'll wait for a ROM upgrade for jasjar

I have been using the plantronics v510, and it works very well with the JasJar. This is the only headset that I used when I first turned it on, I had to turn it down a couple notches just because it was too loud. Great headset, I wanted the 640, but couldnt wait for it to be released.

Anyone does know how to redial via bluetooth headset (HBH 660)?

@ guido: Try a "doubleclick" at the main headset button.

Thinking of getting the bluespoon 5g, I have no use for it right now with IIs, Mini and car phone... But after getting the Exec, BT is a must I guess and 5g seems to go well with it ;P

My headset- HBH Sony ericsson 662. Can see phone Number, can use voidial and listen music via bluetooth with Jasjar
:wink:

question:
can someone tell me if on the Jabra BT800 i can see the display while i'm wearing it ?
thanks

Only if you have an eye in the side of your head! Sorry .... you can only read it before you put it on.

BT800 pulled by Fonejunkie, say due to poor build quality

http://www.fonejunkie.com/jabra-bt800-bluetooth-headset-p-500.html
?? Apart from possible time lag issue for answering call, I thought Jabra BT800 was praised for use with Exec (and XDA IIs) ??
Anyone heard anything to corroborate above?

I'll sell you mine. I used it for the first time today and I think my ear is a little small for it.
I bought it on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5827236759&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWN:IT&rd=1) just the other day and I had a problem with the cover so I RMA'd it. I received a new one, which is fine, yesterday and used it for the first time today.

I have one as well.
Works very well, but I dont use it, so for a reasonable offer, I can send it with all the bits.

Jabra had a batch though thats all.

>>I had a problem with the cover<< - this may be what the company were referring to.

if by problem with the cover you mean the front cover came off, the same thing happened to the one i brought off of eBay! so i sent it back and got a new one, then the front came off of that when i used it for an hour. I put a bit of glue on the one connecting joint and its been perfect ever since!!

I noticed another strange thing with my BT800.
My customers can hear some of my ringtone when I answer a call via the headset. Now, you may think this is not big deal, but when your ringtone is the song, "I like to move it, move it.", this can be a BAD thing!
I have a Motorola 850 and this isn't an issue.
I thought that MS Voice Command was causing the problem due to the annoucing but it doesn't happen w/ the MoTo 850.
Now, the BT800 is supposed to be upgradable so I'd like to see Jabra put out an update to fool the universal into thinking it's a stereo device. Maybe then Voice Command will work via BT. (That is if my understanding of the problem is correct.)

I just recieved mine today didnt even get out of the box in one piece, faceplate problem again.
What a crock of $hit :x

I think this is a better option than the Jabra BT800. They both have displays and cheaper too:

I would like to see that headset on someones head. See if it looks good. Only thing I dont like is the fact that the OLED screen is on the outside of the headset so everyone can see what number your calling. Though it looks like its a lot better than Jabra.

Decent bluetooth headset

Hi guys, just signed up to this forum as I've just recieved a T-Mobile MDA Vario IV. I didn't like it (the operating system so I agreed with T-mobile to send it back and was going to get the N97 when it comes out, as I like the Symbian OS, but decided to keep the MDA now
I was wondering if anyone knows of a decent bluetooth headset that I can use for phone calls as one of my jobs involves alot of driving and it's easier to use a headset. I used to have a Motorola one that I got just after they brought out a law saying that if you get caught using your phone while driving then you get 3 points and a £60 fine. I've since lost the charger for it, and now the headset, so I'm looking for another one. I've looked on eBay, and there are thousands of them, so I was just wondering which ones people are using and if they are any good. I don't want to spend £20 or something on one and for it to be crap, in terms of sound quality, loudness, battery life, etc.
Cheers

I use Nokia BH-503
they're great
works fine with my x1
they are stero though

I use Sony HBH-DS970 on my Uni and work great
Stereo

Sennheiser MX W1 - No Bluetooth but excellent Audio quality.
Whoops, forgot to mention that its just for audio listening, no microphone

Watch the motos BT headsets listed on ebay, there is a ton of fakes going around. I've read this in a few places in the past...

Jabra BT8010 stereo unit individual sale?

Heya, I just recently bought a Jabra BT8010 but I failed to realize that the bluetooth was only sold with the main piece but I was told I can find the 2nd (the stereo unit) piece somewhere. I've been hunting on google and all that for a long time and have yet to find anything. Do you guys have any suggestions? I want to use the stereo bt capabilities of my Fuze.

Jabra BT 8010
Did you find where to get the second earphone for the Jabra BT 8010? I've just purchased a unit and it only has the mono piece. Thanks.

no luck so far.. I'm going to take the jump and buy the full set... I'm probably gonna sell the mono piece on ebay

Help choosing BT headset for my mobile phone

I look for a functional BT headset in good price.
I bought from a seller in eBay the JAWBONE ERA for 60$ (Manufacturer refurbished).
I read some users reviews in AMAZON and debating whether to return the product and buy another one.
I saw dozens BT headset from all the big companies (JABRA, MOTOROLA, JAWBONE, BLUEANT).
what do you think about the Motorola HX550?
thanks ppl!

I used to go with Jabra all the time but after four of my Jabra's died on me I gave up on them. Customersupport is great though since Jabra did send me replacement headsets.
Since I only use Bluetooth/handsfreecalling whilst driving I switched to the parrot carkit. Works like a charm.
