Size, comfort, price, and ease of use account for the 2 stars. This product has never had clear audio with a MacBook or an iPhone 3G. Distance does not seem to be a factor, as 1 foot away from the device is just as bad as 10 feet away from the device. For $20, I am much happier with a Motorola with the same features, and while the Motorola is slightly less comfortable, it is indistinguishable from talking directly on the iPhone.

These are cheap and reliable headsets. I’ve owned about six bluetooth headsets, some much more expensive, but this baby is very dependable and is there when I need it. It’s not very easy to lose (not very big but for some reason I’ve never lost this), sound loud and clear and great for use indoors. I’ve even used this outdoors and it provides good audio quality on my side, and okay quality for the other party. Obviously these are not noise-canceling or anything, so keep that in mind. I also like the hard plastic earloop which is reversible and almost indestructible. I love it compared to the flimsy earloops I have with some of my other bluetooth headsets. It fits my ear well and feels light but of solid quality.
It holds its charge well. Some of the cons I can think of are the short range – about 5 feet for me – and the looks (isn’t the best looking out there) and the big flashy blue light (I prefer more discreet blinking).
Overall, a solid reliable headset. I’d definitely buy another one when my current one dies or gets lost.

This is a very good unit. Although, after 5 feet the bluetooth looses signal with the phone. And the earpiece is not FLEXABLE, causing severe pain after about an hour of wear. If the ear peice was re vamped, and the range extended it would be the perfect bluetooth!

It’s very easy to setup but sometimes the other person cannot hear me!! I end up getting frustrated and taking it off.
