Right, Universal users...I'm after a Bluetooth Headset.

If you wouldn't mind, simply state what headset you use with your universal, how far away you can use it before it is crap, how comfortable it is (I have small ears), and should I buy one..

Looking at the BT800, JX10 or HBH 660 at the moment, but any considered...

Begin!! :P

I use a cheap o2 brand blue tooth headset, came free with my universal, quality is fine, I never used an expensive one, so cannot comment on the quality to one of those. but I can use it within 10 meters when fully charged, when uncharged for a few days, it looses the range.

all in all, cheap is good, spending lots of money is better, but they all do pretty much the same, so don't spend too much, oh and it works with voice dial and can pair up to 5 devices.....

I use a Jabra BT 800. Its only ok really. Quite chunky and doesnt exactly hug the ear, so dont go jogging with it in.

Reception is ok but I have to hold the universal rather than leaving it in my pocket otherwise it goes all crackly.

A good point to note is that the BT 800 was quite expensive. Im on my 3rd headsest (previous was belkin and an o2 one, belkin was crap, o2 was ok) as they always fall off and break. If i was to buy again i would pay a tenner and leave it at that.

Hope that helps

Couldn't get any to work with mine correctly.

Tried both a motorola H3 and a Jabra. Both were flakey when trying to initiate a voice call using the voice recog software.

Sometimes they would work with one press, othertimes two. I never knew if it had worked or not. So took it back.

Got an I-tech connect 'clip' model, doesn't look ridiculous thanks to the standard earbud, but obviously not as compact as the 'all in one' models. Works fine with the Universal, meaning just as well but not better as it did on my two previous phones.
