I had always wanted to own a bluetooth headset but was discouraged by the price and almost zero utility for me. While browsing moneycontrol, I came across an advertisement promoting a Jabra headset for Rs.749/-. Now I am a sucker for cheap bargains and even more so when it comes to gadgets. That Jabra is the no. 1 bluetooth headset manufacturer in the world didn't help things either and I succumbed to temptation. I can always use it while driving, couldn't I?
The link took me to Mobilenxt another network 18 venture, so I knew it was a site I could trust. There it was, lowest price on bluetooth ever. The shipped box indicated an M.R.P of Rs. 2830/-. The site was giving it away for Rs. 751/- (including Rs. 2/- for shipping).
What I liked:
1) Dirt cheap
2) No hassles of A/C charging while travelling. It runs on a single AAA battery but does not feel heavy on the ear. Good battery life.
3) Seamless pairing with my Sony Ericsson W950i
4) Supports voice dialing
5) World renowned Jabra's Mini-Gel technology.
What I didn't like:
1) Doesn't really hold on to the ear and at times gives the impression that it is about to fall off. Being new to bluetooth headsets, I don't know if it is true for other products as well.
