Jabra BT125 Wireless Cell Phone Headset

My first four days

Strengths: clear sound transmit and recieve. simple solid design. easy to setup dirt cheap

Weaknesses: takes too long to turn on. volume control seemed small at first.

Summary: I have talked on the BT-125 for several hours and I am shocked at how clear the sound is in my ear. This is my second bluetooth headset. My Plantronics EXP320 was good but the BT-125 is clearly btter. I had it on my ear for six hours and I forgot that the BT-125 was on my ear. In a noisy environment the easly cleanable solid plastic earbud might have to be pushed into the ear but that has not been uncomfortable. Sitting on my ear lightly my ear can get air which helps make it feel come-fee. The EXP320 cut off the air and became uncomfortable after an hour or so. The EXP was better in only one way with the combined on/off volume control. The BT-125 is still easy to use. I find the volume control bar easier to use when the headset is on my left ear. I can feel the raised + and - marks on the volume control which when the headset is on my left ear is on its lower edge. The clean simple design of the BT-125 looks like something that belongs in a modern art collection. In a time when headsets are becoming jewelry this design looks Quaker or perhaps Men-in-Black. For the $24.99 I paid for the BT-125 on sale at BestBuy it was cheap and less than half of what I paid for the EXP320. A truckload of topsoil will cost you more.

Not loud enough!

Strengths: size

Weaknesses: volume and static

Summary: I love that this piece is small and comfortable. However, the volume is pretty low, using my Treo 650. The little buttons on top don't seem to change anything. I also get static at times.

Not Half Bad

Strengths: good sound quality, good price

Weaknesses: Uncomfortable to wear

Summary: I have been through about 5 Jabra bluetooths. I lost most of them and my BT500 will no longer charge after 16 months. The BT125 had good sound and no problems....except it was so nice and small, I lost it. I went back to the more comfortable version (BT500) and was very happy with everything about it, until it would no longer take a charge. Replacing the 500 with the 2020 was a BIG mistake. It has TERRIBLE sound quality and I am returning it for another 500. The 125 was fine - only reason I did not repurchase one, is because it was uncomfortable. Both my kids use one with no problems.

BT125

Strengths: Long stand-by and talk time.

Weaknesses: Does not come with USB wire to charge via computer. I would like the flexibility to charge at my computer station at work.

Summary: I would buy this again. Good price! Long stand-by and talk time. Bought one for my wife after I raved about it (actually she took mine and I had to buy another one).
