Bluetooth Mobile Headsets

Does anyone have first hand experience of which to buy?

I have a Nokia 6310i mobile and am trying to choose a set.

Ive just bought a Plantronics M3000 from dabs.com for £56. I only got it today but I cant fault it. Certainly worth a look.

With the Plantronics one, make sure that your 6310 is running up to date firmware.

I actually bought one of these for my 6310 and it was unusable due to really poor sound quality.

Once the firmware was upgraded on the phone though, it worked very well indeed although it still only just manages to last a full working day on a single charge.

I am still waiting for somebody to bring out a BT headset that actually has talk time that matches the phone or at least will last for a FULL working day.

I recently got the Nokia HS-3W for my nokia3650, it's a pretty comfortable wear, i only got it yesterday though, talk quality is good, I got it online for £64 inc delivery

I wanted something which looked a bit discreet when in the car and walking about

I asked for and recieved a free HBH65 with my P900 and the damn thing is brilliant. Battery life is ok but its easy to forget you have it in its so comfortable and the call quality is superlative.
Very highly recommended
