Consumer review by: Old_man_caller (cnet.com)

Has done its job with both Nokia E51 and HTC Desire Z

I would never have switched to another headset, but for need for one with other charger connector. Awkward to have one charger especially for headset and another for phone. I will just keep it if my ordered Samsung headset would not do the work as...

Have had no problems. Use it often all day at work, and back and forth to work in car. It keeps connected to phone exactly within range to my office copy machine (about 10 meters). Have stayed fit to my ear and feel no discomfort (for about 8 hrs wear-tim

The main switch is somewhat small as I need a corner of my fingernail to activate. If you bite nails, do not buy this unless you have another pointy body part. You will never know battery status, but then it has never failed. Only had one International ca

Mediocre bluetooth

Ear bud sound is fuzzy and soft. I sound hollow to people on the other end. Fit is okay. Buttons are somewhat easy to use. Very similar qualities to Motorola H710. Probably well built and will last years, but not an outstanding experience, especially...

Appears to be well built with a big call/recieve button. Volume button easy

Power button is so small almost need a pen to operate it. Sound quality is fuzzy and medium to poor quality. Range is much less than 10 m (30 ft)

Does the job well.

Easy to pair with my Nokia N900 and have a good audio quality to calls, but not recomendable to listen to music or play games. The noise reduction really works well, i use in different types of environment and never had problems with noise.

You will be happier than with a Moto headset...

I've paired my BH-606 with a relatively new unlocked NOKIA e-63, and boy, am I happy. Sound quality is very good, battery life is great and the buttons are simple to operate by touch, with a positive feel to them. Most importantly, my callers do not...

Solid performer, light and useful

I had an earlier Nokia headset prior to the BH-606, and I had really gotten used to how it worked. It has taken some time to get to the point I can use the BH-606 as easily, but there is no problem with its capabilities, nor with its range and audio. ...

Good but difficult to pair

Another reviewer said this item worked with the AT&T Nokia E71x but he forgot to inform people that it works but only through lots of work and patience. I have tried pairing it with mine and sometimes it works sometimes I get nothing. Difficult to make...

No fit over ear...

Sound is good, but I cannot fit it over my ear... The holding strap need to be flexible so that you can wrap it around.

Consumer review by: Robsteriark (amazon.co.uk)

Could be a lot better if Nokia put a tiny bit more thought into it.

Technically it's not bad. It was easy to use and paired up without problems but it would have been better if it used the same micro-usb socket that most of my other similar sized gadgets use. It's not ugly, but it's not going to win fashion awards...
