Average rating: Stars

Much better than the alternatives

The Jabra 250 bluetooth has great reception and sync's very well with my Nokia phone. It takes some time to understand the little quirks. I have called customer support 3 times with issues. The problems got fixed each time. The online FAQ page is useless and the company says (online and while you are waiting on the phone for customer support) that email is the quickest option. Jabra says they answer your email within 1-2 hours. That hasn't happened for me yet. The first email never got answered and the second got answered a day later without an response to my actual question.Even the technician on the phone said they have difficulties interpreting email questions. They have very courteous and knowledgable technical assistance reps on the phones.
I like the headset. It has good reception, sync's well,comfortable, very long charge(holds longer than my phone, and has easy to press buttons. I still need to solve the constant need to resync the unit but especially for the price this is an excellent headset.

I guess I must be in the minority

I've had my 250 for about three months now. While I realize this hardly makes me an expert or a Bluetooth elite, I am not that enthused with this headset.

In the first place, the general feeling I get when handling it, is that it is of marginal construction and "quality" was, perhaps, sacrificed to get a unit out on the market.

While I will say that it is very comfortable to wear, it fails in one major area - that of "user" volume. I am forever being told that I cannot be heard or that my audio is so low as to be almost a whisper. I didn't buy a headset so I could stand in the corner and yell into my phone; I've seen enough of these "ego heads" doing that in airports and restaurants; talking so loud as though everyone should be interested in their conversation.

So I am actively looking again. Maybe the thing to do is just to wait it out and see if SOMEONE can't come up with a headset that is comfortable to wear that actually performs as it says it will.

Avoid Jabra Product

I had Jabra BT200 that had broken wires within after 6 months of use. Jabra replaced this product without charge however, the new unit stopped working soon then after and Jabra refused help of repair or replacement. I think this is a quality issue so please avoid their product.
