BT530

Putting on the GN Netcom Jabra BT530 ($100 as of December 1, 2008) involved minimal attachment hassles--a plus for those who like their Bluetooth headset to have an earhook.

Comfortable fit, sleek design Hook and no-hook options

Inconsistent call quality Call button hard to reach initially

The BT530's call quality was all over the map: My voice sounded incredibly clear during some calls, but at other times the call recipients picked up on echoes and some distortion of my voice. The other parties sometimes thought my voice sounded hollow,...

Jabra BT530

This stylish headset offers quality noise cancellation for less money than its competitors.

Sturdy fit ; Sleek design ; Two charging options ; Decent noise-canceling performance

Uncomfortable inner earpiece

Although the Jabra BT530 isn’t clear or comfortable enough to steal an Editors' Choice from the Aliph Jawbone, it still offers good noise cancelling performance and a sleek design for about thirty dollars less. It can also pair with up to eight devices...

Jabra BT8040 Bluetooth Headset

This reasonably priced Bluetooth headset has solid audio and can connect to two phones simultaneously.

USB charging cable included ; Connects to two devices at a time

Fit wasn't entirely secure

The Jabra BT8040 sounds okay and has a few nice conveniences. But try before you buy, if possible, to see whether it fits your ear

Jabra Extreme Bluetooth Headset Review

I recently reviewed the Jabra Wave Bluetooth headset, which I totally love. But before that, Jabra had sent me the Jabra Extreme by accident. The Jabra Extreme has great features and works just as well as the Jabra Wave. Let's give it a look, too.

Extremely good noise cancellation ; Car charger included

Very short AC adapter cord
