"Well worth the money!!" on by hobo1512
Pros: Easy to pair and very easy to use
Cons: For some reason it loses connection in windy conditions
Summary: I was a little skeptical about going bluetooth, but I was pleasantly suprised with this one. It paired to my Motorola Krazr easily, and has performed extremely well. Sound quality has been great, and is suprisingly comfortable to wear.

"Great Bluetooth for Great price" on by alison1daland
Pros: Changeable faceplates, awesome price
Cons: a bit loose depending on your taste
Summary: OK so originally I reaad all the reviews of this item on here, and saw that alot of people were bashing it. I must admit that it made me a bit apprehensive of buying it, but in the end, the price prevailed and I got it. Boy am I glad I did. I had no problems syncing to my Motorola Pebl once I went online and read the user manual instructions. I have no problems with the sound quality. The fit is slightly loose, but my ears are on the smaller side, and it is no looser than my wired plantronics headset at work (and the sound on this one is MUCH better). I have no problems with my power button. Now I don't consider myself a "power user" or "bluetooth fairy", I just kinda needed it for when I am driving or when I know my hands will be full, etc. It isn't for a business use or high call volume or anything. I just wanted a decent, inexpensive bluetooth headset for the general person, and that is exactly what this is. If you don't need this for constant business use, save yourself the money and go with this one. (And put the savings towards a new nintendo wii!)

"Pretty okay" on by katgrrrl
Pros: It actually works! Various faceplates, fit, ease of use, placement of volume controls, price, you can wear it on either ear.
Cons: Sometimes, I get the snap, crackle & pop.
Summary: I got my Jabra BT-160 to use with my Samsung T-809. Purchased it from a T-Mobile store for $60. I've seen it at some online retailers cheaper, after the fact
.
Anywho, amongs the pros I have listed above, I mention that you can wear this little doohicky on either ear. However, they do recommend that you wear it on the same side as the phone. I preferred to wear it on my left ear. But, I carry my bag (with my cellie in it) on my right side. It actually made a difference! The sound was clearer when I switched ears. It's easy as pie to answer and end calls (just hit the bottom of that slim, oval button) I didn't know about the faceplates when I made the purchase. That was a bonus & and half! The girlie-girl in me LOVES that! I can coordinate
. I've changed my cover to the lady bug design. The Lady Bug and the skulls are my current favorites.
I've only used it once outdoors and the party I was talking to sounded very low and this is with the volume on the headset all the way up. However, I was still able to hear them and they could hear me.
I still have to get used to putting it on. When it's on the ear correctly, it feels great and very secure. My husband has that Motorola headset. Ya know, the one you see everybody and their mother with. The times I've worn his headset, it felt as though it was just dangling from my ear. He has the same complaints about his Moto headset that I have about this one (static & low volume every so often). The only times I heard nothing but static and couldn't hear the caller at all was when I went more than 30 ft. from the phone. So, save yourself a couple of bucks and go with the Jabra BT-160.Updated
When I'd written my previous review, I'd only used my Jabra BT160 outdoors once. I used it often during the past few days and I'd just like to say that IT'S GREAT! Now, in my prior review, I'd said that the one time I used it outdoors, the sound was very low and I could barely hear the caller. This was with my Jabra bluetooth headset to my husband with his Motorola bluetooth headset. So, I don't know if bluetooth to bluetooth, it's bad. But, the times I used it this past weekend, it was to people using land lines and the calls were as clear as a bell. Okay, there was one call that had a bit of static, but we still heard each other. I have read complaints about this headset. Fortunately, I haven't been having the same problems. I think it's pretty darn good!
