Love it!

What I like about it is that I could use it with my Ipod and phone at the same time and never miss a call.
Best bang for your buck for stereo BT
User: Jason Rudman, Jul 6, 2009
Pros:
price point, form factor
Cons:
black & red color scheme
I found that the S9 Stereo Bluetooth Headset offers the best bang for your buck in the current Bluetooth Stereo market. This headset fits comfortably and offers good sound quality from the devices I have linked it to including my Blackberry Storm, my iPod Touch (Gen 2, OS 3.0) and my PS3. I am very pleased with this product and recommend it to users of all Bluetooth A2DP compatible devices who are looking for quality with bargain prices.
Pretty good!

Pros:
durability, size, volume
Cons:

I have owned these for over a year now. I use them working out, cardio, running, and at work. I also own the Motorola 820 Stereo one. The S9 has more Volume for sure. The receiver that picks up signal from your phone is in the back of the device, so when your head is in between the headset and phone, you can get a little distortion. Benching at the gym can cause this. I have also been on a row machine and had the phone sitting on the floor beside me and it can go in and out, but overall its been fine. Phone call quality isnt that great but its sufficient in a pinch. I see people talk about sweat issues..im a big guy..63", 235 pounds. I sweat haha.. and I have not had any issues with them. They are very durable when i throw them in my gym back or most of the time they are in my work bag and there isnt alot of room in there.
Very good overall
User: John Newell, May 29, 2009
Pros:
Easy to use - good reception - works great with Storm
Cons:
Finding spare parts
Ive had a pair for two year. Light weight and easy to use. Good range and reception. Switches OK between music and phone if a bit slow (but that may be the Storm software). Im finding it impossible to find spare parts e.g. ear buds so dont lose yours. Overall very good and recommended.
Good under certain circumstances
User: D Freedman, Mar 10, 2008
Pros:
Lightweight, good controls
Cons:
Shape, background noise
I thought they were really cool initially... They look great and have excellent sound. The controls are great too.
What disappointed me was two specific design shortfalls:
1) Shape/design: I bought them for working out and on plane rides, but with the antenna portion extending so far out, you can not place your head flat on a headrest or weight bench without them pushing out of your ears!
2) Microphone quality: I tried using them at the gym, at work, at a casino, and in my car with the top down. Everyone complained that the background noise was really bad. Ive used my phone without the headset and with my wired unit in those environments and not had any such reports.
There is also one other factor that makes sense, but I did not consider. The headset will not allow you to not watch a movie and hear the sound through the headset. The delay in transmission of the sonud causes a huge discrepancy between the movie picture and sound. Kind of like watching an old karate flick.
If either of these situations would impact you, you might consider a different design. The cheap wired ones are good to keep on hand, either for a battery life, movies, or when talking in a noisy environment.
