Laz speaks the truth. BUT....

I had 2 HBH-30s. With both and a good few that I sold, 3rd party complained of the user sounding like they were underwater or of an echo, where they could here themselves.

Since I got my HBH-60, no such problems. Maybe an SW issue and it is another £100-150 but SOOOOOOOO much lighter and more discreet to wear.

My vote's with the 60!

Jesus!

Why are some people on this site more interested in dissing other people's posts than writing something useful.

You may have noticed that FLASHBACK, in his original post, said that he already HAD the HBH-30 and was debating buying the HBH-60. Hence the EXTRA £100-£150.

Expansys do it for £102, SE themselves for £100 and CPW for £150.

Have I fully justified my previous comment?!

Wow, just read my last post back! Think I might need to take a chill pill or 2!

Guess I may have overreacted a touch....

Either way....

P800 - quality phone.
HBH-60 - icing on the cake

HBH-10/15/20/30/60 use the same BT chip. Only MAIN difference is design and battery. The HBH-10/15/20 also allow for multiple device pairing and selection of active device. HBH-30/60 no longer allow this, they only allow full use of the LAST device it was paired with... even though it can still be paried with up to 8 devices... the last 7 devices will only be secondary.

If you have the budget for it... go for the BS Panther. Bluespoon is the ONLY Bluetooth headset that really does perform differently. Everyone else; , Nokia, Motorola, Jabra, etc... are all essentially the same... just choose the one that looks the best. Bluespoon on the other hand, really did things differently. From size, to weight (less than 1/3 of most BT headsets), to battery life... Bluespoon wins hands down.

and re WoeDee's query, does the bluespoon support all the SE functions eg voice-dial, connect w/out auth, like the HBH-60 does?

If only BS wasn't so darn expensive!

Hi everyone....i have just got the HBH 60...everything is working well with my P800 except that the headset cant seem to recognise my voice when i try to voice dial...it works fine on the handset though.I checked the manual and it says that it recommends recording the commands with the headset itself.Can someone tell me how to do that please??..

You have to re-record voice from headset. Then it should work fone from both phone and headset.
I had the same problem.

P.S. You have to klick on pick up button on headset and then record on phone, or same time. After sound say " XXXXXXXXXX '.

Somehow even if i click the headset then the record and its quite hard to click both together anyway...it will recognise it as a call and displays no match found later....One more problem is that the people that i called complained to me about a very high pitched noise that comes when i speak with the headset...they say that its very noisy...is there something wrong with the headset??should i have it replaced??...
thanks..

@dave_uk

HBH-60 on Sonyericsson's own site for £85.10. (Site keeps failing on me however so I haven't checked that this excludes VAT. If you have to add VAT it's back up to £100 anyway I guess.)
