Life of A Phone Lover: Jabra BT125

Jabra BT125

Written by ImagesLab.net on Tuesday, January 15, 2008

Just recently got myself a new "toy". Can you still remember my post a few days back where I mentioned about getting myself a new Bluetooth headset? Quite indecisive at first but well, at last I've gotten myself a Jabra BT125.

The box looks something like this...

The package comes with,
1 x Jabra BT125 Bluetooth Headset,
1 x User Manual,
1 x AC power adaptor, and
a Warranty card.

Since it's a new one, I’ll need to charge it for no less than 2 hours before I can test out the headset's quality. So to kill some time while waiting for it to be ready, I flipped through the instruction manual for its specification and to check out whether there are any other special functions.

Specification:
Battery - Rechargeable lithium polymer
Bluetooth version 2.0 specifications
Operating range - Up to 10 metres (30 feet)
Talk time - Up to 8h (subject to phone)
Stand-by time - Up to 170h
Charging time - Approximately 2 hours
Weight - 14 g.

Supported Special features:
• Answer/end call
• Voice dialing*
• Reject a call*
• Put a call on hold*
• Call waiting*
• Last number redial*

*Phone dependent

Okay, it is now time for me to test out the headset. First of all, I really like the design and its color. It is also obviously very light; weighing only at 14g! After that, I tried to make an outgoing call and I was rather surprised with the voice quality. The voice on the other line seems loud and clear. Superb! It feels comfortable and it fitted perfectly on my ear due to the light weight and adjustable hook.

The only thing I can't stand would be the volume button. It is very tiny and too flat and most people would have a hard time adjusting the volume if they’re not quite use to it. This may not be seen as a major problem as users can always opt to adjust the headset volume to the max and then using their mobile phone to turn the volume down.

Up to this point, I find this bluetooth headset satisfactory. There is nothing exceptionally bad for me to find fault with, therefore, it is highly recommended!
