Nokia BH-800 Bluetooth Headset at CES
Posted on Jan 7, 06 02:53 AM PDT
Nokia has announced its new headset line two days ago at CES and we finally got our hands on the Nokia BH-800 Headset. This elegant tiny Bluetooth headset looks very good and we can only hope that the sound quality is on par with the design. It is the direct competitor to the Motorola MINI. I personally prefer the look of the Nokia BH-800. The MINI is lighter than the BH-800, but has a shorter battery life. Unlike the MINI, this device does not claim to have a noise reduction feature, so we will not speculate about the sound quality before we review them. The Nokia BH-800 comes with a strap that allows the wearer to place and remove the headset with one hand (see photo gallery). It is available in two colors, coffee black and silver white.

I have a had my BH-800 for almost a month. I like it. It is light and stays is place without a problem. I am active in my job so I use the wire what I am at work. Sound is good and others have no problem hearing me. I would suggest this one it the best out of the 3 others I have had.

Just bought the bh800 yesterday. So far the comfort factor(without the ugly metal loop) is great. I seem to have no use for the loop anyway, however if it did NOT look so "not blending in" with the design of the earpiece itself I may have used it! The sound quality is much better than Motorola. Maybe because the earbud is perfect and the Motorola's earpeices I have have none.

I havent tried it myself (probably a million people put that in their ear at CES :P, but with a weight of only 9g, it seems to stay in place without any problems.
