   I’ve bought at least a dozen bluetooth headsets over the past few years. Without a doubt, this one has the best fit I’ve ever experienced. The soft silicone piece fits snugly in my ear without causing any pain, which is great because I have super sensitive ears. The simple but effective ear loop can easily be removed and swapped around to make it a left or right ear piece. It can also be adjusted up or down depending upon the size of your ear. Unlike so many bluetooth headsets that have a fixed length ear loop and are therefore too large for my ear, this one was a perfect match.

   The headsets feels very cheaply made, thus a deduction of one star. The call answer and end button just doesn’t work as smoothly as I’d like. This bluetooth headset is extremely small and lightweight, but I found the call quality to be as good as the Motorola headsets, but not as good as the Plantronics. For casual users or users on a budget, this is a great choice.

   One last comment, I have no idea why the description says display. It doesn’t have a display, none of my bluetooth headsets have a display, and I wasn’t expecting a display. However, I can understand the confusion if you bought this and can’t find the display.

   feels cheap and flimsy, sound is a little crackily, but consistent.
   I bought it on sale at a great deal. if it wasnt on sale, I tell you there are better options out there.

   I’ve had plenty of trouble in the past with various bluetooth headsets not fitting very well or snugly on my ear, and having the tendency to fall off (either due to the bulkiness of the body or the flimsy design of the earhook). This particular headset fits very well and securely on my ear, partly due to its lightness, and partly to its silicone earpad-ring design, which comes in three different sizes–once I chose the specific-sized earpad (or earloop) that best fit my outer ear, I’ve found the headset to be quite comfortable and to fit very well; unlike with the previous couple bluetooths I’ve owned, I can now turn my head quickly or lean my head without feeling like the whole thing will fall off. You can definitely put this on and forget it’s there after a while because of its lightness and snug fit.

   Sound quality-wise, I find the microphone voice quality is decent. I recorded my voice and played it back and compared the sound quality of various bluetooths, and the Nokia sounds good, although perhaps soft/muffled in terms of the high-end, treble portion of the sonic range. Compared to my Motorola H3 for example, the Nokia is a little too muffled in terms of treble response from what I can tell, although the bass response is definitely better and more abundant. It may come down to a matter of taste, and it may just be a difference of sound signature, but I personally prefer something with more prominent high-end/treble, as it makes the voice sound clearer and more understandable.

   There is a built-in DSP voice-isolating and background noise-reducing function/filter, and it works to reduce background noise to some degree to allow your voice to come through clearer to the person whom you’re talking to, but probably not as well as a true noise-reducing headset with dual-microphone technology.
