• On TechRepublic: Who made the worst PC ever?

On the back of the headset are a rubber-covered earpiece and an ear loop that can be adjusted to fit either the left or right ear. The earpiece is a tad larger than most, so it doesn't fit in the ear too deeply. Therefore, you'll want to wear the ear loop for added security. Luckily, the ear loop is made from a very flexible material that lets it fit around most ears. With the ear loop on, the BH-208 feels quite comfortable when worn.

We tested the Nokia BH-208 with the T-Mobile Sidekick 3 and the LG VX8700 and were able to pair the headset with both phones successfully. Call quality was decent--we heard our callers just fine, with clear voices and loud volume. Callers had a bit more trouble hearing us, saying they had some problems hearing us when we were in noisier environments, such as on city sidewalks. In quiet office or car environments, however, callers heard us just fine. The Nokia BH-208's features are pretty basic. They include answering, ending, and rejecting calls, last-number redial, muting calls, and voice-dial support. The headset also has a spare earbud cover in case you lose your existing one. The Nokia BH-208 has a rated talk time of six hours and a rated standby time of six days.
