Audio Bluetooth headset

i use the sony ericsson MW600 bluetooth headset with my galaxy nexus but it has problems as that is always disconnecting when the phone is in standby mode. Is there any bluetooth headset that works perfect with galaxy nexus, without discconections and auto pairing every time they are in near distance? I would like to be with 2 corded earbuds like MW600.

I will put it in extreme test, will check and revert ..

I have it, I hate it...

It doesn't disconnect like you said, screen off, if a notification arrives, it plays through MW600...

Altough, you tell about auto pairing, I've noticed that this headset with the galaxy nexus doesn't behave properly, if it is connected, and you walk away (and leave your phone), when you come back, it won't connect, and sometimes, phone bluetooth connection is killed (if you try to turn it off and on again, you won't be able to turn it on)... Also, it doesn't work properly with Galaxy Nexus in ADP, if I play a game, audio is delayed by 1-2 seconds... Same headset in other phones (Motorola Milestone, Nokia E51) work fine, no delay.... In an iPad 2 it also doesn't exhibt this behavior... So, I'm inclined to say that Bluetooth stack in 4.0.4 and 4.1.1 is garbage (since it worked fine in 4.0.2)...

The headset seems great, and if I were using it with my Milestone/E51 or iPad 2, I would be a happy user, but, it simply doesn't work well with Galaxy Nexus in 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 (not sure if other headsets do, I believe they do not, otherwise I would expect to read a lot of complaints here).

Its exactly what you saied friend! Its a big preoblem that auto pairing is not working and that phone bluetooth connection is killed and cannot turn the bluetooth on again. So, have to buy another bluetooth headset???

Try the jaybird freedom. I've used it for 8 months and they worked great until I ran in the rain for a good while and the battery doesn't hold a charge anymore. But that's my fault not really the headset. I am planning to buy another set and be more careful.

Interesting, I got the MW600 mainly to stream music at work on my desktop (was PITA to set up, but that might be a Win7 problem vs SE problem). I have linked it to my phone running various JB ROMs and haven't had any trouble yet.

Fingers crossed. For the 2 weeks I've had it, it's been great for listening to music, but on calls I get complaints of a fair amount of road noise. I'd use it for phone calls in a pinch, but probably not as a main voice headset.
