Actually good headset, but annoying weaknesses

Philips SHB9100 / 00 Bluetooth Headset Speakerphone (USB charging cable 3.5mm), Black (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have a Bluetooth headset sought, with which I can connect me with cables on the device - there is not much choice, so I ended up with this.

Basically, the headset is actually not bad at all:

+ It has a comfortable fit without pressing on the head

+ Unlike partially described in reviews, I find the operating concept with keys managed and thus come along well

+ The battery lasts really long, it is recharged via microUSB

+ Better sound than expected via Bluetooth, yet a tad better than cable

+ Super reach, in the office I have myself in the communal kitchen still connect to the laptop - but as lying 15 meters air line and 3 walls in between.

But, unfortunately has the headset some, for me really angry, Weaknesses:

- The battery lasts a long time, but when he goes to running out, the headset reports with annoying, not-ending beeping. From this time, the headset is virtually no longer to use up to charge it. Queries how much battery you have not yet going course. Precisely because of the really long battery life you forget to like to shop.

- As mentioned above, it is important for me to be able to connect the wired headset. The sound cable is great, but the microphone is not supported wired for some unknown reason to me. Annoying here on Bluetooth to rely.

- When making calls via Skype (naturally via Bluetooth after it no other way :-)) I am already often happens is that the quality of the sound begins to sway in mid-conversation, and I understand my opponent only with noise. It is definitely not on the connection but on the headset, as the call over the loudspeaker / headset other normal sounds when I initially tested repeatedly. The reason for this may be that there is a music mode and a telephone mode are basically (for mobile phones), and he go despite connecting to a notebook between these two modes and herspringt. When listening to music, it has never happened, only the phone!

- Despite the fact acclaimed range, I lose on the road now and then the connection between the headset and mobile phone which is in the pocket. Headset off and on, then goes back :-)

The headset has annoying weaknesses, which are annoying for my original purpose - for lack of alternatives I use it still. However, potential buyers should weigh on what value is placed.
