Samsung WEP700 review

Features of the WEP700 are fairly basic; you get the typical answering, rejecting, and ending a call, last-number redial, voice command support, call mute, putting a call on hold, and transferring a call from the headset to the phone and vice versa.

We paired the WEP700 with the RIM BlackBerry Pearl successfully. By far, this has the best sound quality of all the other Samsung headsets. The WEP700 features two internal microphones that are built to reduce background noise, adjust volume automatically, and cancel out echoes. We have to admit that it works as described. Callers could hear us just fine whether we were in a car, a crowded restaurant, or a quiet office. However, we did get some heavy static sounds occasionally, and it doesn't completely block out strong winds. Also, we would've liked to have an option to turn off automatic volume control, just to save on battery life.

The WEP700 has a rated talk time of 6 hours and a rated standby time of 8.3 days.
