I hope it does come out soon (i.e. before I leave the UK at the end of this month). I've got an unused amazon voucher and an MW600 that doesn't want to connect to my XS. Plus, its clip is broken.

My clip is broken as well and I am fed up of just having the headset hanging around my shirt and neck.

That is a lot of pieces. Did it also come with the 2gb microSD?

Enjoy.

@ pt020

Would like to hear your views once you have had a chance to use this. It is definitely on my radar, and seeing that the box is full of goodies makes me even more excited.

How good are the phones?
If it is to be it is up to me!

This is nice but I want to get some reviews plus the price does not pull me although if it is seen as worth it I will take it later. If I don't get the impression that it is worth the huge increase over the mw600 then I will buy another one of those.

There's a firmware upgrade for this headset, be sure to download software from PLAY store for free. Headset stutters before firmware upgrade.

Used it for few hours yesterday and today and my impressions are mixed.
If you want a headset with good sound and good headphones this one is for you ... but as much that I like to like it there are some things that I would do differently or not at all ..
First it's size ...


Even that it is shorter and thinner than the older MW600 it is much too wide and you feel it when you wear it.
Call button sits in a wrong place so you push on it also when you do not want to .. usb cover is not very handy too and even that the build quality is good this part feels bit cheap.(too much Xperia S look )
menu is loaded and it takes time to get used to but all works.
FM radio is very bad ...the sound is like an old mono radio,the MW600 had much better tuner.
MP3 player works good and have song and time info and you can even ffw fbw music on both players but still the sound from the phone's player is better because the bt set does not have an EQ or any other sound settings.
Headphones are one of the best in ear I ever had but strangely when I connect them to the mw600 they do not sound as good,also the flat cable I do not realy like ... it is harder than normal cable and it disturbs more
but the cable is also bit longer,so it is a +..

you get notifications from all apps and it even reads your messages but for me it is useless because I can see it also on my watch.
Battery is new so I must recharge it few times more ... first charge was not so positive ... it stopped after +/- 4h . (mw600 8-9h)

If you already have the MW600 and you do not look for all the notificatios thing you do not need it ... but headphones and set have a very good sound quality and deepper bass with less distortion with high volume.

my pleasure

Compared few in ear headphone I have to the originals that come with the wireless headset pro
(from left to right)
1.Sony wireless headset pro
2. SE HPM 77
3 Sony MDR 71 ex -sl
4. SE HPM 70
5. SE HPM 78
6. In ear Dre Beats



(First in the list have the the best sound last worst)
The Dre Beats are so bad that I used them once for 5 minutes .
The best headphones I have are not in ear and cost more but have a realy good sound



All in all the HPM-77 is the best compromise between sound and comfort (if you can not afford the Bose) and they cost only 15€!

Nice collection you have there @pt020.

Have you installed any additional apps on the Wireless Headset Pro? How well does it work with non-SE devices?

Thank you .
I did instal these apps


but ... I did turn the apps off because they disturbed me with listening to music (it stops the music for 1/10sec to let you know you have a message)
I also have the watch so I do not need it.
