I'm curious about everyone's battery experiences with the 660, so thanks, and please keep us posted on that as you get more use out of it.

I have a Q tho; the site lists two colors available (apparently): grey and silver. Does that mean there are two versions, or is it just that the one version is gray _and_ silver. Thanks!

Well, having had my grey and silver(!) HBH-660 for a couple of days, I'm liking it more and more. It is a bit heavier than the HBH-60, to answer whoever asked, but I am pleasantly amazed by the battery life for an headset. I have given it a pretty good workout in the last 48 hours and the battery appears to have lost one bar! Plus, after wearing it a bit, it is actually a very comfortable headset - just a shame they had to dispense with the idea of putting all the weight behind the ear, rather than on it, as they did with the HBH-30, but still keep the short boom that the HBH-6x(x)'s have.

But, I'm warming to it, and it just might get the vote over the HS-810 for when the HCB-30's not in use....note to self: must stop buying toys.....

I got my 660 a while back and the battery life seems to be phenomenal (though this is my very first bluetooth headset, so I can't really compare to what a "bad" battery life is).

I like the status display and I find it very helpful. I leave my K700i in it's case and I can see who's calling just by looking at the headset.

Though I do find it a tad uncomfortable. The reason I say this is because the little piece that sticks out that I guess is supposed to go in your ear, doesn't go in my ear. As if the headset was too short, so it doesn't rest "in" my ear but just next to it.

But overall I'm glad with this headset. The one thing that worries me about these short headsets is that I thought that the mic would be too sensitive and that the person on the other line would be complaining that all they hear is background noise (and hardly hear my voice). But it turns out that they can hear me clearly (some say a little too loud) but hardly to no background noise interfering. Definitely would recommend this headset.

Ok, I recharded mine after 5 days, not always on, naturally. But many hours of standby and my calls.

For the battery status bar I must say that the first segment goes away very soon and when the second is gone you ear a low battery warning beep. So the battery bar has only 3 positions I think: Full, 3/4 full and 1/4 full (low batt)

After many days of use I found an issue.
I use it with a Z600 and many times at incoming call the display does'nt show neither name or number, but only a little phone receiver.

I paired the HS many times, but the issue is still here.
I think it may depend from phone.

For who asked, voice clarity is veri good, both in out e in calls, and speech recognitions is good in not noisy environments.

Another curiosity: I have a hbh-600 too, I brought it to assistance for battery issue (life too short), after 1 month, the returned me another hbh-660, perhaps because all 600 are defective or out of production

I use 660 for some weeks (bought in USA). Brilliant headset. Battery life is top and it suits perfectly, much better than motos hs810.
I used it with T630 and use it now with Z1010 without any probs.

I think, itīs a good choice to buy it.

I have the 660 as well but only shows the number with incoming calls and not the name (which is ofcourse stored on the phone memory), so is that the way it should be or it depends on the phone used?

Hi,

I would like to know, that the display of HBH-660 is working with my Moto V600 (I mean it displays the number or anything)?

Yes it works with the V600, but I need to know does it display the name or only the number?
