Hi Guys,
Xperia Z needs a bluetooth headset so that you don't need to pull out the flip cover to insert the headset jack, it will not remain waterproof with latches open.
Also please remember to buy the charging Dock for your Xperia Z !!

I have tried many bluetooth sets but none was perfect, either not good for music or clumsy n difficult to handle.

Then I came across this LG Tone HBS-700 and trust me its awesome.
1. Awesome sound quality (calling + music)
2. Form factor - very easy to carry.
3. Good battery.
4. Acceptable price.

NOTE: I AM SHARING THIS NOT BECAUSE ITS BEST FOR MUSIC BUT ITS BEST DAILY USE, ANSWERING CALLS, LISTENING MUSIC, ETC. THAT TOO AT A PRICE OF 40+ dollars !!

Here is Amazon link:

Don't worry about that. There's a great dock for Xperia Z as Xperia10.awesome mentioned. Also, replacing a cover that has been damaged will cost you 15 pounds so it's not such a big deal, and is certainly worth it with waterproof body.

Sony mw600 is the best, trust me. Just buy some descent headphones to the bluetooth receiver.

Another vote for the mw600, although I am quite tempted to pick up the sbh20. I really like how Sony creates BT headsets that allow you to use your own earphones. Specifically, I love using my mw600 with my Shures.

Only qualm I have with mine is the volume control. Sometimes press it by accident, finicky at times.

Now we have Wireless Headset & Wireless charger, but how about Wireless data transfer between PC & Phone (for music, video, etc..)

    I'll probably be picking up the Novero Rockaway earbuds or the Jaybird Bluebuds X for my Xperia Z. Was gonna consider the SBH20, but the fact that you had to clip the unit to something kinda threw me off, although it did have nfc..

    Here are some links:

    Since you have Smart Wireless Headset Pro, can you comment on it's quality and usability compared to MW600.

    Or Should I wait for SBH20 to release and compare it with MW600 ?

    I can't comment on the SBH20, however as to the MW1 vs MW600:

    The sound quality through the MW1 is superior to the MW600.

    An added benefit of the MW1 is the ability to store music locally, and play it locally. This means that lack of aptx on the Xperia isn't so bad, as you can put all your music on a micro SD and listen to it in all its glory :)

    In regards to the other functionality of the MW1 (reading texts, call log, etc.) it is gimiky and not too functional.

    MW1 vs MW600? The MW1 wins hands down.

    I would like to reiterate that if you are intending to listen to music through Bluetooth you will be disappointed in the quality since the Xperia does not support aptx.
