(5 out of 5)FINALLY! A COMFORTABLE headset that DOESN'T FALL OUT!!
So far, I have bought 5 different kinds of headsets to use with cell/cordless phones. The BODY GLOVE EARGLOVE is fantastic! At first I was doubtful because of the brightcolored interchangable "neosleeve" covers..( I assumed it was a product geared towards kids & therefore COMFORT was probably low on the list) Was I surprised! Earphone and mic has better quality sound than my other fav plantronics. It truely "fits like a glove" is extremely liteweight & COMFORTABLE and most important of all: IT DOESNT FALL OUT WHEN YOU TURN YOUR HEAD! Highly RECOMMENDED. [Now, if only they would design headset that fits my siemens cordless....] only works with 2.5 jacks...NOKIA 5190 etc.
(2 out of 5)A Painful Experience!
I puchased this for the reason that; it hooked around your ear and, it had a small boom microphone which, I though would perform better than my Jabra earset. Unfortuately, I was wrong.
Sound quality was pretty good but, in order to achieve that quality you have to get the earpiece firmly in your ear. This is where my pain came in! The hard earpiece had to be lodged in my ear in such a way that, after about five to ten minutes, I had to take it out because of discomfort. While I did use it I tested the microphone by leaving myself voice mail messages both at home and on my cell phone. The sound quality was poor. If I couldn't even understand the message I left myself, that's pretty poor.
Overall, I could not recomend this for the reasons mentioned above. Save your money and, look elsewhere and, let me know if you find someting good!
(1 out of 5)Cheap junk
Used this one for about a month and a half before it fell apart. The glue on the earpiece failed and now the speaker plug is hanging loose from its cheap plastic casing. The ear fit wasn't too comfortable either. I bought this because I didn't want one of those dangling mics, and this one looked less geeky than some of the other choices (like the Plantronics), but am now very much regretting my decision. btw, a coworker bought the Plantronics, and it has much better sound and build quality.
(1 out of 5)Very disappointed!
I could not wait to order this product. It looked great, had good technical writeups and reviews. When I did receive the headset I was very disappointed. I have a Nokia 8260 and the Body Globe 2.5 mm jack does not properly fit. The volume is so low that conversations are impossible. I already use the headset Nokia includes with the 8260 and it works very well. I was truely hoping for a more versitile and stylish headset. Instead I got a lemon with poor quality fit and performance.
(2 out of 5)Bad news - lots of static and poor quality
It LOOKS like a good product, right? Yet it is not. I used this device for 3 days before having to return it. Most of the tiem you can hear the other person, but they can *barely* hear you. And G-d forbid you have to use it in the *slightest* of windy conditions - you won't be able to hear anything and the other person will think you are sitting on the wing of an airplane. Skip this product folks...
