Sorry if this has been asked before:

The 300 is the biggest. The 602 and 660 look like a much better size, compact and not too imposing.

What I want from a headet is good battery life and a clear reception when receiving and making calls, as well as having a nice design, i.e: the above. I've heard the 300 is meant to have very good battery life and has a brilliant reception. What about the 602 and 660? Is the 300's battery life and clear reception worth having even though it's a bit long?

Is the 660 smaller than the 602?
What is the oldest/newest?
Does the screen use more battery life?
What exactly is the screen for?
What has the better battery life?

I do not know the '602, but it is supposed to be an improved '600.

You use the word "reception". Do you mean sound quality; as in microphone and earpiece quality? Your phone will determine the reception quality, not the headset...

I have tested the '300, '600 and '660. All three have good sound, but the '300 is better in noisy environments, such as when walking in traffic. The problem is that because of size, you would not want to carry the '300 when out and about.

I would recommend the '660. Battery lifetime is excellent compared to previous pocket-sized HBH's. The display shows caller-ID, which means you don't have to unzip your pocket and take out the phone to see who's calling.

I've been told the 660's battery life is better than the 600's (660 is the newest...), but I haven't used the 660 so can't compare. These days (after trading in my first 600, which had a dodgy battery), I get perfectly adequate battery life from my 660. Some have commented that the 600 is slightly more comfortable on the ear. The 660 is more expensive, but if price is no object, I'd probably buy the 660 if I were buying now.

I'd only ever use the headset when driving and there's not much background sound inside a car.

So the 660 seems the best bet...
