Pros: Even though it is bulky in size and shape, it is very light. Wearing it all day (even when not used to it) does not bother the ear. Very good range. Great sound quality on both send and recieve. That tends to have more to do with the device it's attached to though. More on that at the end of the review. Final and big plus: it has a good 9 to 10 hour talk time.
Cons: It is a refurb item. The rubber suround is new though (the speaker part that touches the ear) and the ear hook is new. The body will more than likely show some where from previous owner. It's about a 4 year old model at this point. The instructions are nothing more than a single sheet (front and back), that are a bad photocopy of the orginal. Not even lined up correctly and almost too dark to read.
Other Thoughts: I needed a reasonable headset for computer use (skype). This is not for my cell. When used with a good quality blue tooth dongle it will perform very well. I wouldnt recommend this for more recent cell phone use. You will find better headsets that are smaller, and better looking than this for when you are out and about. Also, if you are very active this does have a chance to fall off, as the ear hook is not very secure. Not good for driving. This is a great little headset for use at the computer though. Cheap, light, good sound (again with a good dongle), and lasts a good long while. Good buy for what it is. A refurb item thats about 4 years old.
