"DO NOT BUY - trust me on this" on by aztek
Pros: It is small
Cons: The clip is very, very awkward to use.
The sound is low on the supplied headset.
The connection range is very, very poor and the device frequently loses its connection with my iPhone.Summary: Jabra has replaced my unit twice and both units have the same problems - so it is safe to assume these are design flaws.
The clip - You need a wedge to properly keep the jaws open while attaching it to your garment or the rubber inserts on the jaws will eventually fail due to the force required to attach it onto your garment.
The conductivity range of this unit is very, very poor. I purchased this to allow me to place my iphone safety away from my immediate work area. If the unit is further than 5ft or I turn away from the iphone - the clip frequently loses its connection. If my hand passes in front of the clip - its loses its connection.
I know three others with this device and all have the same problems - all have returned the product. I seriously do not think this device was properly tested by CNET, as these problems are too obvious to have been missed by any proper test. In my opinion this device is rubbish. -
"WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE - Shoddy Product" on by harlem_chocolate
Pros: -It clips onto clothes
-Provides in-ear headphones
-Battery LifeCons: -Customer Service
-Drops out frequently
-Button Paint runs off quickly
-Poor workmanshipSummary: I enjoyed using this bluetooth for a while while hiking and biking. It wasn't perfect, it would drop out frequently when around cars and populated areas. I was willing to let that go because hey it was a stereo bluetooth that allowed me to exercise. Less than a year after purchase the left channel audio went out, i tried different headphones and identified the issue. Only when pressure was applied to the headphone jack stem would the music play out of both channels it simply wore out. I contacted Jabra, let them know that i received this as a gift and did not have the receipt. They refused to help me out. I asked if there was any way they could help and i'd remain a loyal customer. I was ignored. I've been sure to spread the word about Jabras poor product quality AND even worse customer service. My GF works selling Cell Phones and will not recommend Jabra at all, I recommend staying as far away from Jabra as you can. You will only be disappointed. Don't let the price sway you, you truly get what you pay for.

"worst product from worst company ever." on by Ben_theMAN
Pros: none. pure crap.
Cons: drops out if my phone is more then 2 feet away, cant even have it in my pocket. if you have a problem with your jabra unit... good luck.
Summary: i bought a jabra bt3030, it would only work when the battery was near dead (right out of the box it did this) i contacted jabra about it, they told me to send the required information and they would send me a replacement. i sent the info, they ignored me for 5 weeks. i finally called them and spoke to india who passed me between two people then i had to wait for a call back from someone in management. this person told me they couldnt replace my BT3030 because they didint make them anymore and that id have to settle for a clipper. this thing is awful. i wanted a 3030, i got a pile of junk.

"What's with cnet?" on by ryorklive
Pros: There are none.
Cons: Does Jabra not test there products?
Summary: You've read the other negative reviews of this piece of crap. My question is, why doesn't CNET alter it's reviews when so many customers are experiencing problems? At the very least there should be a "warning alert" in it's ratings and force the manufacturer to respond. This product is unacceptable yet CNET has it listed as one of the top wireless headphone products. CNET, your poor advice is unacceptable!

"So glad I bought the Clipper" on by MarioParent
Pros: Small and compact. Simple interface. Great sound quality.
Cons: No issues yet.
Summary: I wanted wireless, but I wanted to keep my existing headphone. The Clipper is exactly that. Surprizingly small in size and very discrete (mat black rubber) so I can be clipped anywhere an not stick out like a sore thumb.
Pairing was flawless with my iPad2. I can't fast forward/reverse but track forward/back, pause, play, stop and volume controls work perfectly. Changing tracks is holding the up/down button until you hear the beep (takes about 2 seconds). The sound quality from the MIC is good, though my iPad is only the Wi-Fi model.
I really love the fact I can use ANY mini-jack headphones as I understand the stock pair that comes with the unit is low grade. All in all...10/10.
