Looks a lot like the Jabra BT620s.
Jabra is better though: when you wear it, you get a blue light flashing ring on both ears. You surely don't look stupid with it.

To be honest, pressing on both call/answer and start/stop buttons simultaneously switches off the blue flashing rings.
And the musical quality is excellent, even when connected to my z610.
Usually, I use it with my PC however.

I used the HP headset a 2-3 years ago which had this style and which connected via proprietry driver to my iPaq for stereo sound but I just didn't feel comfortable wearing it and only kept it for about a month

planning to buy this headset too. was able to test a demo unit. paired it flawlessly w/ my k610i. sounded great too. would've been better if they were earbuds, though.

I couldn't get used to the earbuds and didn't find them the cleanest things to use either plus they still had wires. I'm a big fan of this type.

To prepare the headset for pairing just hold down the power button for 7 seconds while the unit is switched off. The passkey is the usual 0000.
Just got mine today in London (Tottenham Court Road - GBP55).
Works very well with my W880i, although I'm not especially impressed with the sound quality. Maybe that's just cos I'm used to the base from earbuds though. Not sure why, but I can change the manual equalizer on the phone and it changes the sound, but changing between presets seems to have no effect.
I've only worn them for up to 30 mins at a time so far, so I'm not sure if comfort will be an issue yet.
Oh, and I think it's the first time I've owned anything with a pink LED.
Overall I'm fairly happy. |

really like them,will buy a pair.Actually I'll put the transducers of some Koss Portapros or Senns PX100 and put/change the opamp. Very interesting,I hope it delivers good sound with the mods.Really need some BT headphones in order to use them in the fitness club,I hate those wires when liftin'.

you already have them?So what about the quality of sound?If the bluetooth transfer cannot support better-than-good quality,I won't buy them.Though how could you know,as you are listening to the doubtfully good transducers,not directly the bluetooth,haha !LOL,maybe a stupid post but I haven't used BT headphones never so I don't know what to expect.
