Samsung SBH170 Bluetooth Stereo Headset user reviews

Pros Pretty decent quality sound for a blue tooth connection. Great range around my entire 2,000 sq. ft. apartment from the paired base. Very easy to operate the various controls while wearing; great for hands free driving, walking or chilling out.

Cons Unit has a strange fit which is not very snug or stable. It does take some bending of the ear hooks to get a comfortable fit. I would not recommend for use while exercising as they would fail to remain on your head; forget using them for jogging.

Summary If Samsung were to devise a removable chin strap so as to create a snug and stable fit; the unit could be used while exercising which would, in my opinion, increase the units marketability by ten fold.

Pros Sound Great

Cons Break to easy. Uncomfortable BREAK TO EASY!!!

Summary BREAK TO EASY. They end up in about 3 peices. Cheaply made!

Pros Good sound, but otherwise a waste of money.

Cons Awful fit, PERIOD! They won't stay on your head, and they pull your ears down when you wear them. When putting them on your fingers press the buttons on the top left earpiece which is VERY annoying. Samsung should reimburse everyone who buys them.

Summary Buy something else

Pros I carry this inconspicuous headset every where I go (unlike my nerdy high end Plantronics). I use to listen to internet radio, MP3s, and videos on my Treo 755p with the help of audiogate software.

Cons It sometimes picks-up incoming calls before I can decide (although the auto pickup is disabled.) It would be even less nerdy if the phone pads were more of a human ear shape. They are to round and puffy.

Summary Since I snapped the spring band that holds the phone pads snug over my ears. I'm looking to buy a new one. There apparently is nothing as light, and inconspicuous that sounds as good on the market as of today.
