Lightweight, comfortable and excellent sound quality.......2007-09-14

I purchased this for myself a few months ago, and bought another for my husband after his larger Jabra headset stopped working. This is so lightweight that you barely know it's in your ear, and you can wear it on either ear quite easily. The best part is that the sound quality is not only very clear to the user, but the person on the other end can't tell it's a headset, since it sounds as clear or better than a landline conversation. Its echo cancellation and noise suppression technology must be doing the trick, since the sound quality is exceptional. It is quick to charge too, and the light turns off when it's charged...a plus to my color-blind husband who can't tell red from green like other chargers.
I am very happy with my purchase, and I highly recomment this headset.

Works Great!!!!.......2007-08-27

I originally tried the Motorola headset & returned it because it was too floppy on my ear. But I love this LG because it has an earbud that fits into your ear & stays very secure & is comfortable. Sound quality is good on both ends - loud enough for me plus sounds good to others. The other nice thing about this product is it's compatibility. I use it with my LG VX8600 & am able to use the same car charger for both the phone & headset - very convinent!!! I would suggest this product - it works great!!!

poorly designed/no noise suppression.......2007-08-26

I tried this headset for 2 days. The first day, I thought I would like it. However, the second day, I couldn't keep it on my ear. The earpiece swivel had loosened so much that it would twirl around too easy. Every time I moved, the earpiece would slide and the headset would practically fall off my ear.
Regarding the advertised noise suppression, I don't think it exists. I previously had a Motorola H500, which doesn't advertise noise suppression. My callers would say that this headset was worse that the old one. Any wind at all, and the caller would not hear my voice.
I returned this unit.

Pretty Good Headset With One Potential Drawback.......2007-09-27

I have used a number of bluetooth headsets. If you want to see how this one stacks up, see my reviews of the Motorola HS850 and H700, Jabra BT250v and BT350v, Plantronics 320 Explorer for reference. Now let's consider this headset in terms of the four key performance categories: pairing, sound quality, ease of use, and comfort.

Pairing - This is a pretty straightforward process and works like most headsets these days where you hold down the multi-function button until it stays on constantly (about 6-8 seconds). I paired this with both an LG VX-9400 and LG VX-9900 (see my reviews). With both phones, there were no issues in pairing upon the first attempt.

Sound Quality - I found that with both phones that the sound quality was pretty good. It does seem that there the volume level takes a slight dip with initiating a call, but it is usually back up to the desired level before the other person answers their phone. With this headset having an in ear speaker, the person on the other line should not get any echo as is often the case with other headsets. I thought that I was able to hear clearly without maxing out the volume which has not always been the case with other headsets I've used. Also worthy of note, this was the only headset that I used that performed well with the LG VX-9400.

Ease of Use - This is one area where the headset has a clear weakness. The multi-function button is flush with the surface on the side of the headset, and it can require more pressure than I would like in order to initiate voice dialing. My wife tried the headset for a while, but she kept having the button get bumped in her purse and turn on unintentionally. She wound up missing some calls as a result, and she's using the Jabra BT350v now as a result.

Comfort - I have to say that the headset is average in this area. The thin wire earhook has the benefit of not causing pain, but it is so flexible that the headset doesn't stay in place very well. If I didn't wear glasses, it would constantly be falling off. Even with glasses, though, it moves around a lot causing the speaker to rub on the inside of my ear. While the thinner earhook is a good concept, I think that something a little less flexible would hold the headset in place better resulting in better overall fit and comfort.

No Good.......2007-01-09

I loaded the software, nothing worked. I called SMC for tech support. The person asked when I bought the product. I said I just got it. He said they didn't offer tech support any more, it was an old product. He said I could pay ten dollars and have some other company help me. I sent it back and bought a different kind.

Good..........2005-09-11

It serves its purpose and haven't encountered any problems yet. A great fit for my Dell laptop.

Not worth the money.......2004-12-16

This card is not very good. It has probelms picking up some wirless networks and DOES NOT HAVE WPA capabilities - the description given is not true! The software supplied in near to worthless. You may think that maybe I have a bad card but that is not the case - I bought 2 of these and they are both 'low rent' - maybe it is my computer - no again tried another card (belkin) and a centrino and a laptop with wireless included and they all worked without problems.

This is a lemon - walk on by!

Short Range and Untable.......2004-10-07

This card is easy to install. Works fine with WinXP on my Dell Inspiron 2560. However it has weaker range/reception comparing to the Belkin card I had before. It drops the connection pretty often at 50ft with one wall in between. The included software utility shown 95%~100% signal level and link quality at the time. The reading drops to 0% straight, I have hardly seen any other %number between 0% and 95%. Once in a while I lose connection in very close range of less than 10 feet! I do not think it is very reliable product.

ingles:
It works great on linux, the wireless I bought was gray on the bottom and its chipset was not amdTek's that's found on most of the forums. I downloaded the driver from http://rt2400.sourceforge.net/ compiled and it was ready to rumble.... I luv Linux!!

espanol:
funciona bien en linux, la que me mandaron tenia gris la parte de abajo y no es el chipset amdTek que se encuentra en la mayoria de foros, solo es de descargar el driver de http://rt2400.sourceforge.net/ se compila y listo
