 No support after warranty! December 18, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased the Jabra BT250v about a year and a half ago. I liked the subtle looks and decided to buy it. However, it didn't work well with the radio/phone I was using so I put it away. After recently getting a new phone (and hearing that our state law is going to require "hands free" soon while driving), I decided to pair it with my new iphone.
The unit comes with a plastic (gell) ear piece that swivels to fit properly into your ear. When I swiveled the ear piece, the small plastic ring it attaches to cracked and fell apart in my hand. As the unit is otherwise like new, I called the manufacturer hoping for help. I expected them to replace the part or send a new unit considering it was basically unused. Instead, they insisted that once it is out of warranty they offer no service or repairs. I spoke with two managers who both insisted I should just throw it away. I even asked if I could send it in for repairs and pay the repair cost myself. I was again told "No, if the unit is out of warranty, there is no repair". I could better understand if the whole thing broke in half, but it appears to be a simple snap in ring. It really looks like a replaceable part. It was never dropped or abused. I paid over $100 for the unit and would have expected better support. Buyer be ware!
 Decent December 8, 2008
ive had it about a year now, the performance & sound quality are fine, but its big & ugly & the removeable rubber earpieces come off very easily. I've lost 2 of the earpieces and am lucky ive still got the 3rd. i thought the behind-the-ear feature would help the headset not fall off so i wouldnt lose it as easily, but its pretty bulky and inconvenient to position behind the ear so i just stick the rubber piece in my ear & then have this huge thing on the side of my face. i am going to get a much smaller bluetooth soon, without earpieces that come off so easily.
 Reception Good, But Can Be Uncomfortable June 2, 2008
The reception is good, but the product tends to get uncomfortable after a couple of hours. I'm very active and need a headset that can be worn all day.
Jabra BT250v: Not Bad At All May 25, 2008
Reliable, which is primary for me. Some very slight static once in awhile, but certainly nothing that would prevent me from repeating my purchase. Fits nicely in/on my ear and very comfortable. For the cost of this headset, I'm very pleased with the value I've received.
 Good, but not for all ears? May 5, 2008
There's a lot to like about this headset. Big plus: sound quality is great, and it's loud enough (I'm hard of hearing, so that's a big deal.)
The chief drawback for me is that the earpiece part won't stay in my ear when worn "properly," wrapped around the ear. If I don't try to wrap it around, I can actually get it to stick in for a while, but obviously that doesn't last. So for me, it's not "hands-free" at all, as my right hand has to hold it in place. Not sure whether my ears are too big, too small, or just oddly shaped, but some adjustability would be welcome.
