Strengths: Attractive Size/Weight, Secure Fit, Bluetooth Range
Weaknesses: Cheap-feeling earpieces, Sticker Faceplates
Summary: After having bought the Samsung WEP410 a few months ago, I naturally gravitated towards the WEP301 when the time came to buy another headset. Both are similar in size and overall appearance. However, this is where the similarities end. The WEP301, the newer of the two, comes with an optional ear-hook and 6 six stickers that serve as faux face-plates. The fact that they’re stickers and not actual plates may be disappointing to some but it isn’t a total deal breaker. Upon holding the headset in my hands for the first time, I was instantly surprised by how light it was. This can be good for prolonged use but it also makes it easier to lose. Donning the headset isn’t hard but the ear-hook can be problematic for eyeglass wearers (the ear-hook is removable so this is really a non-issue). The included rubber earpieces are comfortable and appear to do their job. My only gripe with them is that they’re thin and feel cheaper than those supplied with the WEP410. All and all, a great buy for those who desire a small and discreet headset.

3 Star ReviewSmall is beautiful
Strengths: Good sound quality, 6 designer covers, Bluetooth Range
Weaknesses: Fitting in ear is a little problem initially, a little uncomfortable
Summary: This is better than the Nokia headset i have and hence it becomes primary for me. This Headset works well. I can hear well and others seem to listen my voice better than what was with Nokia. Design is good, looks modern, very small.

Size and weight is good as well. Well it came with the manual but there are no instruction in that to remove pairing with the device its paired, i tried to press the reset button, but it didn't reset, may be there is some other way out.

But overall i am satisfied with quality for the price (after rebate)

3 Star ReviewOnly because it's cheap
Strengths: Lightweight design, cheap, battery charges pretty fast, small
Weaknesses: skins that have no use, hook that doesn't stay on your ear
Summary: I bought this one because I was using a Samsung Cell phone and this headset is fairly cheap. Although the size is very compact and light, it's kind of difficult to get it stay on my ear. And it's not usable in a very noisy environment.

Strengths: Battery life, talk time, fidelity are all pretty OK. Very light which is a plus
Weaknesses: .the ear loop is a thin piece of plastic, and is not adjustable.
Summary: the ear loop is a thin piece of plastic, and is not adjustable. It does not latch on to the earpiece very firmly, so it can fall out pretty easily

Strengths: Cheap, Light weight, Easy to use, Charges quickly, cool skins to dress it up
Weaknesses: None
Summary: Best bluetooth & the best price. I charged it up and started to use it. It fits snug in my ears so I don't have to worry about falling off of my ears or not being able to hear well because it's not too close to my ears. I would definitely recommend it to my friends

Strengths: Nice & little, Attractive
Weaknesses: Looks Cheap
Summary: I got this as a replacement for my Motorola. Compared to that it has only less talk time but looks simple and neat. Less weight is an added advantage. Highly recommended for the price. Cheap and good.

Strengths: Affordable, compact size, clarity is decent
Weaknesses: Flimsy earhook, low talk time
Summary: Brought this headset as a spare for my Motorola HS850 in case I forget to charge it. The clarity is good considering for the low price of thirty bucks with a twenty dollar rebate from Samsung. I wish the battery would last long because with only five hour talk time you have to constantly recharge it. Watch out for counterfeits and make sure to buy from reputable retailers.
