(More customer reviews)I got this headset as a part of Dragon Naturally Speaking Premium 11 Bluetooth. It comes with a Bluetooth adapter but if your computer has built in Bluetooth, you do not rally need the adapter. Just pair it with your computer or cell phone or whatever other device like iPod that you may want to use. The headset is very comfortable in the ear.
This headset has only one button, which does all the functions, depending upon how long you press the button. Pressing and holding it for 2 seconds, turns the headset on. Pressing the button and holding it for 4 seconds, turns the headset off. And you turn the microphone on and off by pressing the headset for one second. Pushing the button up and down adjusts the volume. To pair it with another device, you press and hold it for 4-6 seconds until you see the red and blue flashing light. Interestingly, the other devices do not ask to you to put a pin or number while pairing, although on their web site it says 0000 is the code.
With Dragon NaturallySpeaking, it works really well. This review was dictated on Dragon Naturally Speaking.
1.But on Droid cell phone and iPad, there is intermittent background static heard.
2. One of the most annoying thing about the headset is proprietary charging cable. So you have to keep that cable with you to charge the headset. I cannot understand why they do not use the standard micro USB cable for charging.
3. The Bluetooth adapter also has a loose cover with no place to tuck it when adapter is plugged in and it is real easy to lose that cap.
4. Then of course, it is expensive, and you can find far cheaper Bluetooth headsets, if you just need it to work with your phone.
Other than those annoying aspects, I like this Bluetooth headset. It works really well with the Dragon NaturallySpeaking, my Droid phone, and iPad. I use it with Skype on iPad to make phone calls. Microphone is very good but earphones are average. Primarily this headset is for Dragon Naturally Speaking or their Calisto series Bluetooth phone system but it works with other devices like any other Bluetooth headset. So if you bought Dragon Naturally Speaking Premium 11 without the headset and you would like to be untethered then this Calisto Bluetooth will work very well.
