The Bottom Line:
I'd love it completely if it weren't for the un-syncing issue.
The BlueAnt is my second bluetooth headset, actually the third if you count the one I had for a day and returned. My other previous one was a Jabra BT160, and it didn't make after a trip through the washing machine, so I got this BlueAnt to replace it.....I long for my Jabra, kinda.
The BlueAnt is fine overall. It synced up fine, sounds pretty good and picks up voice quite well (so well that the a/c fan in the car can actually cause some wind noise one the call.)
It's comfortable to wear and comes with a little rubbery cover that goes over the ear bud. This cover, has a little funnel built into it which can be positioned to funnel sound into your ear canal. Provides better sound reception. That little cover also helps hold the bud into your ear, a problem I've experienced with many headsets, bluetooth and otherwise.
It comes with an ear hook that's detachable and it swivels and pivots to easy use on either ear and to give a wide variety of wearing positions.
It comes with a USB charging cable and a 12v vehicle adapter that the USB plug plugs in to as well as a 110v adapter fashioned the same way. It's quite handy to be able to charge in the car or on a computer whether at home, in the office or on the road.
So, what's wrong with this little piece of hardware? It has the pesky habit of un-syncing with the phone. I use it with a Motorola V3c. I don't know if this problem is peculiar to that phone or whether this is some kind of "feature" intended to save battery life, but I find it annoying, having it beep to tell me it's un-syncing and either having to press the button to sync again, or know that the next time I try to answer a call, I'll be waiting on pins and needles to see if it re-syncs in time to pick up the call.
If it weren't for the pesky little sync problem I'd really like the headset, as it is it's adequate and sometimes makes me long for the cheaper Jabra.
