Hello all,
I have just got my P800, and i was wondering which bluetooth headset to get. I was told at CPW (Harrow, UK) that the hbh 30 had a better standby time then the hbh-60, on the internet it shows that the hbh-60 has a better standby time.
Can anyone tell me which headset i should get ( Stanby time is important to me as i am a pilot).

Hbh60 looks much better and is easy to take with you in your pocket

I have the hbh-60 and I love it. It lasted me 3 days on standby mode. I love it very much. Very compact to carry and discreet to wear.

I have had my HBH-60 for a week now and think its great, the battery isnt up to capacity yet but ive only charged ist twice, so im sure it will get better after 3 or 4 charges, just like my P800.
I tried the hbh-30 in a s hop and couldnt get on with it, i found it very fiddly to put on (needed 2 hands), although other people who have the 30 say they have no problem at all, but when i did get it on and get it comfortable on my ear i could see the boom of mic out the corner of my eye, which i found very off putting. if i put the mic so i couldnt see it then i did find the headset comfortable.
My hbh-60 arrived, i picked if up and put it straight on with one hand, first time. I have been told i do sound quiet if i use it in noisy areas, like in the car or walking down a very busy street with lost of passing cars, but this is probaby a feature of the headset, possibly some sort of noise cancelling.
Overall i think its great and has changed the way i use my P800

i'm currently using the hbh60...formerly using hbh30 be4 i got the 60...i now only use the 60...30's in cold storage and is to be used as backup only......that's testament enuf for the hbh60 dun u think??

Is it lighter to carry than the 30?
Posted by shithappens
yes...much lighter....the best is however the smaller form factor, i.e., it doesn't take up that much space in your pocket compared 2 the hbh30
Posted by Leigh
From memory the HBH-60 weighs in about 22 grams, its so light thought that you dont notice you have it on

I am using the HBH-30, I tried the 60 but found it quite poor when using in the car. maybe it was me but I found the 30 better possibly because the mic. is closer to your mouth. I stuck with the HBH-30 as it also has better standby/talktime.

HBH-30 I had a HBH-60 but I too found the quality in the car to be very bad. People could not hear me when using it, and so spoke to SE who changed it for the HBH-30, without any question at all and it was £10 cheaper. Now I have no problem with it and find putting it on with one hand no problem at all. I have to say I prefered the size of the HBH-60, but it is vital for me to use it in the car, so it has to be the HBH-30. I also had a Jabra BT200 but the sound on that was too high and distorted voices too much.

I hear a lot of people complaining about the headset in the car but i think it also depends on the kind of car you drive and if you use the blower or not if the windows are open or not. I personly don't experience any problems with it during driving
Posted by volvoman
With mine it did not matter what you did, it was useless in the car. Windows up down blower on off it was the same. Ericsson said it may be software at fault on the headset something to do with the voice canceling.

Are there firmware upgrades for the HBH60? Or do they all come with the same firmware or whatever you care to call it.
My HBH60 has been working very well both in-car and out of car. Have never had anyone complain about the voice quality. Although I do close up all the windows when I use it in my car.
