HBH-DS980 3.7 5 6 6
Nice Sound! This is a very nice unit that serves the needs of music gurus as well as heavy talkers. I use a cell-phone that has a large connecting piece to allow for connecting headphones, and it ends up being a little much to carry around. With this headset, my phone has nothing connecting directly to it, and sits in my pocket or glovebox nicely. The advanced features of this unit lets me control most aspects of my phone (easily making and receiving calls, as well as listening to music) without ever touching the phone itself. Sound quality is excellent and range is as good as any bluetooth device. I recommend this to any hard-core listeners, as well as those who appreciate handsfree convenience. January 23, 2009
Still Alive I bought this thing back in 2008, only use it occasionally, but it still kicks out the jams and has suffered no noticeable loss of battery life. I now have it connected to my Ipod touch and my Razr Maxx, and the music sounds great. Phone call quality is acceptable. The OLED display has a major cool factor. The neck string was a bit long, so I just tightened it up with a zip tie. And the earpieces are adjustable too. If this one dies soon, I'll definitely replace it with an identical model. Hopefully by then Sony will have changed the power supply to a universal Micro USB. Love it!! April 23, 2012
Check compatibility before purchasing I'd rate this set higher if it worked with the iPhone 4S or Apple's iOS 5 devices. It worked with iOS 4.x. The sound was great and it was the best stereo bluetooth headset on the market at the time. But I'm a bit annoyed that with an upgrade of my iPhone it no longer will sync. Please work with Apple to correct this issue! November 29, 2011
Wonderful headset!! I like the fact it hangs around the neck and the earbuds fit in ur ears. It has wonderful sound quality and the mic works well to talk. I have had mine for 2 years and wouldnt trade it for anything. March 29, 2011
