    "Great Device" on by garment69

    Pros: Excellent sound, remote control of phones media player

    Cons: short battery life

    Summary: The is a great solution for commuters who dont want to reach for the pda every time they want to raise volume or change tracks. Works exactly as advertised. Turn it on, it connects and you are ready to go. 6 hours of listening time is very short though. I have to charge it every night or it would die on the way home on the second day of use. Sounds quality is excellent, volume is sufficient and the noise cancelling aspect is an added bonus.

    "Nifty stereo bluetooth headset" on by Jaden0707

    Pros: Easy to operate, hands free music & call display without looking at Phone

    Cons: slight lag when playing music, sound quality ok

    Summary: Just got this yesterday to go with my K800i. This is my first bluetooth earphone. Charged it for 8h before first use to prolong battery, as usual. Connecting it to the phone was not trouble at all once I found the power. . it's on top.

    I thought the sound could have been better on low frequency songs. On the wired earphone low frequency songs sounded much better. So that means all songs you download need to be high quality. Other than that it sounded pretty good.

    I love the fact that you can see who's calling on the display. You can voice dial and click the call button twice to call the last call. Overall is a great earphone, with nice design and long battery life

    "Pretty cool" on by LearJetPilot

    Pros: Great Sound Quality, Easy to pair, Lightweight, Great battery life

    Cons: No FM radio, Bad spot for call pickup button

    Summary: After a few days of using this, I can say it was a good purchase.
    Pros :
    Great sound quality; easy pairing/multi pairing; Display which shows song/who's calling; Control volume,play,stop,forward,back, from controller; Great battery life (at least 6 solid hours of playback); Comfortable earbuds (they block out a lot of outside noise); SE phone charger(walkman phones) works with this headset(so I only have to carry 1 charger).

    Cons:
    It doesn't have an FM radio and the radio on the phone needs the cord from original headset as an antenna so it cancels the bluetooth headset when plugged in. In other words, I can not hear the phone radio thru this wireless stereo headset. It's only for MP3's and calls. (if anyone has a way around this let me know)
    Why not place the call pickup button right on the controller? It's only a few inches down from the left earbud. When a call comes you have to feel for it because you can't see it to press it to pick up the call (follow me?).

    I would give it a 10 if it were not for those 2 annoying bits.

    "The cables fall apart and warranty does not cover it!" on by Reg_Cracknell

    Pros: None that any one could now sell me on!

    Cons: The cables fall apart and tech support claims it is user damage. Yet it happened only two weeks after receiving the product. Then after trying to work the maze of different support numbers and support personnel, I find out they blame it on user damage.

    Summary: Never will buy another Sony Ericsson product if my life depended on it. Support terrible, warranty is none existant and when the product falls apart in two weeks the product definitely is garbage. I would recommend any other product about Sony Ericsson.

    "Great sound, no nonsense bluetooth cans" on by snoogans45

    Pros: They deliver a richer deeper sound that you don't find in some cheaper headphones. also turn them on, when your phones' b-tooth is on and the connect automatically.

    Cons: if like me you commute on a daily basis you find yourself charging them every night. and if you forget to do so and realise it in the morning....you have to make do with your old wired ones. (bah!)

    Summary: No matter what type of music you listen to, the headphones deliver a clean all round sound. i've had them for about 6 months now and i can't fail them. I can leave my phone on charge at the end of my bed and listen to my music wirelessly and also answer calls, should my phone ring. To be honest i use them more for music than for calling. If i'm making calls i usually use the phone for that as i a don't drive ( i take the bus ) and i have caught myself in reflections of windows jabbering away to myself

    a superb pair of headphones that you'd have to have a screw loose not to buy!!!!!
