Nokia BH-804 Bluetooth Headset review

The Nokia BH-804 comes with a few accessories, like a charging dock and a neck strap. We like the neck strap idea, in case you don't want to wear the headset in your ear all the time. There's also a travel charging cap, to be used when you don't want to carry the dock around.

We tested the Nokia BH-804 with the Apple iPhone 3G. Call quality was good for the most part. Callers could hear us loud and clear with not a lot of background noise. When we used it in the car, they could hardly hear the din of the engine and surrounding road noise. It didn't fare quite as well in a crowded shopping mall--callers said we sounded rather faded at times--but we could still carry on a conversation. The BH-804 also does not do so well in strong winds. We were quite pleased with incoming audio quality all around, however.

Features include answering, ending, and rejecting calls, last number redial, the ability to transfer calls from the headset to the phone and vice versa, and voice dialing support where available. The Nokia BH-804 has a rated talk time of 4 hours and a standby time of 6.25 days.
