Summary: overall i like this one
Comment: I bought both a Cardo and the BlueAnt one for work and one for home. They both have good audio quality. The BlueAnt is comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. The only problem I have with the BlueAnt is the microphone that you have to attach to the headset. I have not lost it and I hope that I dont.

Summary: Worst listening experience ever
Comment: I don't leave too many reviews, but I believe strongly in them. I base most of my purchasing decisions on them. These things are the worst headphones I have ever owned. I wish I had never bought them. Let me explain why.
First, the longest they have ever stayed on is 4 hours before the battery is dead in the transmitter. The transmitter sucks too. It receives a lot of interference. The speakers have never died out on me and have held the first charge, but they are no good without the transmitter. There is this annoying clicking and static that plays in them. You have to press the play and stop buttons to get different noises to stop. I am very disappointed. I wanted them to use with my computer so that I did not have to keep reaching behind the computer to plug in some headphones. I was also hoping to use them with the TV when I want to watch something and not bother my wife. I would never recommend these to a friend. I would also tell everyone to stay away from these. If I could I would return them, in a second.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Good sound, poor everything else
Comment: I have owned this headset since Nov '07. Since then I have come to some realizations about this headset. First off, the sound is good. I does a great job as a wireless headset, and stays put while jogging.
Now the bad. To start, none of the buttons on it seem to work. I cannot even power it down, since once it is turned on, the power switch is non-functional, which means I must remove the battery to turn it off. Neither the connect, nor the volume buttons work either. This is unfortunate, because the ROKR I use has a rather pathetic volume control and without the headset working, I cannot seem to find a sweet spot. Also, the headset gets rather uncomfortable after wearing them for any length of time. And finally, I have been told I sound as though I am talking softly when I use this set for conversations.
I cannot say I can recommend this headset for anyone other than maybe joggers that want to use their phone as their mp3 player while out for a run...

Summary: Many problems
Comment: This headset seems like a good option - it is folding, comes with a transmitter, has a removable mic, supports A2DP and AVRCP bluetooth profiles, etc.
Despite all the good attributes above I have had nothing but problems with this headset. First it doesn't fold far enough to be useful but it does manage to pull hairs from the back of my neck every time I wear it. The transmitter that came with my unit was faulty and only broadcast the right channel - I also got no reply from BlueAnt's tech support. I didn't have a chance to try the mic but the stereo audio quality was lousy on all the devices I tried it with (direct pairing or transmitter).
Edit: It has now been nearly a month since I received my faulty transmitter. I still haven't received a reply from the BlueAnt tech support, but last night I received a replacement part in the mail (at my card holder's address). Testing with the new unit the audio quality is decent and I clearly hear both stereo channels. The BlueAnt unit still seems slightly inferior to the separate headphones and transmitter I bought to replace it, but the battery life and charge time are much better. If you get a working unit this is a decent Bluetooth stereo kit.
(still) I recommend getting a separate transmitter and headset. You can find either part separately with better quality and lower price.
