Amazon.com Product Description
The long-awaited update to the wildly popular Jabra BT250 is here, and it's got great new styling, comfort, and features. A one-touch pairing button makes pairing your mobile phone simple, while multi-color LED lights keep you informed about your Bluetooth connection, as well as charging and battery status. With the BT500 you now also have the convenient option of charging directly from your PC via a USB cable.

No matter how fancy or powerful a headset may be, it's not all that useful if it isn't comfortable. Fortunately, the BT500 has comfort covered. The ergonomic design fits comfortably behind your ear. Plus, it's significantly slimmer than its predecessors, offering the ultimate in lightweight comfort for a Bluetooth headset. In fact, the BT500 weighs just .67 ounces.

All the functions you use most often on your phone are conveniently available on the BT500. A single button controls answer/end functions, as well as call hold/wait, call reject, and mute. You can also voice dial from your BT500, as well as re-dial the last number. Note that some of these features require that you have a Bluetooth compatible phone that supports them. A dedicated pairing button makes it easy to connect the BT500 to your phone at a moment's notice. Plus, multi-colored LED lights provide Bluetooth, low battery, and battery charging status.

With eight hours of talk time and up to 240 hours of standby time, you can talk all day if you need to. As mentioned, you can charge the BT500 via a USB connection, or via an included AC adapter. Charging takes about two hours.

What's in the Box
BT500 Bluetooth headset, AC power adaptor, USB cable, 2 standard Jabra MiniGels, 2 small Jabra MiniGels, user's manual.

I have owned a few of these hands free bluetooth headsets, including the most expensive one, the jawbone. This Jabra one is far better. First of all, it is the only one that I am able to put on quickly to answer a call (i refuse to walk around all the time with the thing on my ear!!). The sound quality is excellent. You can walk pretty far away from your phone and it still works. The most important part is that it is very comfortable to wear because of the fact that most of the bulk of it fits behind your ear. In fact, people can't really tell that i have it on.

4 out of 5 stars Great Accessory   June 3, 2008
P V S Jagan Mohan (India)
A great product. Some of the reviews mentioned that the piece will go dead and wont charge after a month. I was a bit concerned at first, but luckily after about 8 months of usage, it is working great.

I have a touchscreen smart phone that has to be carried in a case on the belt. the BT piece makes answering calls so easy. I dont have to pull my phone out, fiddle with buttons or anything.

The piece comes with interchangeable ear buds. I first tried out the longer ear buds. But storing it in pockets can be a problem, so went with the smaller ear bud and it fits just as well.

one press /one beep of the button to end the call (when call in progress), one press/two quick beeps to redial last dialled number, one press / one beep to activate voice command.

best of all, you avoid the 'cockroach on ear' look.

I do wish this had a regular mini usb port for recharging. The piece comes with a proprietry port that requires a seperate charger or a seperate USB cable. If they had used a mini usb port, it would ahve made life simpler. if that was there, this review would have five stars.

Still, the enclosed USB cable is quite useful. helps you to throw that charger away and not use it at all.
