On the back of the headset is a rather large circular earpiece clad in a hard rubber material. Because of the shape and size of the earpiece, it felt quite uncomfortable when wedged in the ear. And even after we pushed it in, the headset had the tendency to fall out. We ended up needing the provided plastic ear hooks for added security, but they didn't add to the headset's comfort. You're unfortunately stuck with the large earpiece cover, too, as there are no other earbud covers.
We paired the Jabra BT4010 with the Apple iPhone 3G. We have to say that the call quality is abysmal. On our end, we could hear our callers quite clearly, but callers could hardly hear us. They said there was a lot of background static and our voice sounded muffled and crackly. This was all in a quiet office environment, too--it got much worse when we went outside.
Features of the Jabra BT4010 include the usual answering, ending, and rejecting calls; last number redial; voice dialing support; and the capability to transfer a call from the headset to the phone and vice versa. It has a rated battery life of 6 hours talk time and 6.25 days of standby.
