Headset with the W800i

I've just received my new W800i and was wondering if I should have received an extra piece with the headset. On the photo I've attached there seems to be some sort of sleeve around one of the headset wires. Has anyone else got this?

No, i didnt get one with my headphones.

Neither did I...

Mmmm....is this something we should have got? Will SE provide one? What does it do? Too many questions.....

i think it came with early W8's. I didnt get one but then again i bought the HPM-70 seperate with for my K750 and didnt expect one. I think its purpose is comfort? Dunno doesnt do anything spectacular though!

I got my W800i the week it was released, I never got one, it doesn't look like its attatched to the HPM-70 Cable anyway, It looks more like a wrist strap to carry the phone.

Well maybe just on a select few. I think its just for comfort around your neck, thats all.

I got one on mine. It goes behind your neck and helps hold the cable in place and stop it from slipping.

Glad it's nothing to important that I'm missing out on then!

jcwhite_uk - do you think it makes much of a difference?

Posted by jcwhite_uk
I do find it useful.

Does anyone know if SE supply them separately or whether there available from a retailer? PLEASE HELP ME - I'M MISSING OUT ON SOMETHING!!!!!!

I got mine one exactly the same as badabing's.

i got one on mine, it does sort of stop it from slipping around your neck but if you clip the clip on to the top of ur t-shirt or something then that'd do just a good a job at stopping the earphones coming out.

i got one on mine but i find it completely useless, the headset still slips unless i clip it

I bought my hpm 70, and it didnīt have this also

Iīm glad because most people say its useless and just adds weight to the headset

So, donīt worry about it

Cheers guys - you've all helped to put my mind at rest, I can quite happily live without it!

I received another W800i which I bought by mistake from eBay for Ģ200 last week, I thought I was going to be outbid on it! Anyway I spose it was a great deal! But when I opened the box to my surprise it came with a SE lanyard and the headphones with the neckstrap! The phone is factory unlocked and unbranded too, Brilliant!!

Watch that headset. You see more often now that people dont get it with the band, mine hasnt got one, because its damaging the cables. The picture in the first post is showing how after time from moving the wire at the end of the band how it snaps and breaks off. But if your carefull, then theres no problems.
