Guys / gals, I’ve just posted a really cool comparison & roundup of three stereo BT headphones: the Nokia HS-12W the Plantronics Pulsar 590 and the Plantronics Pulsar 260 to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1161097 . Make sure you don’t miss it if you’d like to choose a stereo Bluetooth headphones model or just would like to know more about A2DP – it’s a MUST for all A2DP fans!
Thank you very much for a well researched atricle on the A2DP standard as well as a few tests on BT Stereo Headsets.
I would like to support your findings on the Nokia HS-12W.
I have had mine for a while now and used it on the AKU 2.3 RSA 1.35 ROM, with mods to the registry as well as Sleuths A2DP fix. This worked surprisingly well with only the odd skips occuring.
The newer AKU 3.3 ROM's have sorted out the A2DP problems and the quality is now near perfect with good range as well.
However I have also purchased the HTC BHS 100 BT Stereo Headset and found this a bargain at the price.(also running AKU 3.3)
The price in South Africa is half that of the Nokia and the quality of the sound is virtually similar. But the HTC headset has an advantage.
The mike is built into the device which is smaller and lighter. The earphones use a 3.5mm jackplug, so it is possible to use your own earphones of choice. This really is great as the "pocket" now becomes the limiting factor to quality.
The range is good with unobstructed transmission up to 15 plus meters.
For travellers the advantage is that the adaptor(small) only needs to be taken with as this fits onto the Hermes mains charger.
A further advantage is that when using the oem earphones that are supplied, the left earphone can be unplugged, which will make motoring safer as ones' hearing is not impeded in traffic. It then becomes a mono BT phone headset.
The wait for this device was long in coming, but well worth it
I trust someone finds this informative.
I have just received my bluetooth stereo, is excelent, I recomend everyone to buy one.
its a bluetrek duo stereo, very good device, look up, wont regret it
Plantronics Beat 903+, very good audio and nice price. Got mine for 40 bucks at amazon. Good for listen music/videos and answer calls
I’d like to buy an in-ear stereo bluetooth headphone for my Galaxy S3, I’d like to have:
1. good audio quality
2. good connectivity (I don't want sound lag or constant disconnects) from right fit to the Galaxy S3 into the leather case horizontal pouch type (to understand the Pdair model) on my right side of body
I’ve bought a Plantronics BackBeat Go, but is very very very poor headphone …
I don’t know if the new model JayBird Freedom 3, ha the god connectivity for my situation …
Thanks a lot
Ciao
I use the Jabra BT3030 for the bluetooth bit and plug my own sennheisers into it. No drop outs no lag and I get to use whatever type of headphones I want
And what about Jabra Sport ???
Ciao
I'm also wondering about something like this, the Jabra BT3030 seems expensive at nearly twice the price of similar Samsung or Sony devices - is it that much better?
I was considering either the Sony Ericsson MW-600

or the Samsung HS3000

Cannot make up my mind but both have good reviews.

I have the MW-600. I think it's good, good enough for me to buy a second. Multi-point connection allows me to use it with the laptop and phone. Amazon seem to have them for £25, I have bought for £40 and felt that was good value.
Hs3000 definitely...
I have both mw600 and hs3000. Sound Quality is way better because Hs3000 supports apt-x. I used a shure 535 on it. Maybe an overkill but it is good.

Another vote for the Jabra BT3030.
Had the headset for nearly 2 years now, worked OK with my HTC desire but would cut out from time to time and had limited range.
With the S3 its perfect and has much more range.
Guess the BT radio in the S3 is stronger.
Please Suggest which Bluetooth Headset is the best...
Any more suggestions other than these are welcome
ı bought Nokia BH-111 and using its own earphones. I dont expect too much sound quality but it is good.
I'm using it in my car, in my pocket and and with my pc. Its reciever is small enough and easy to carry.
I'm sorry for my bad english.
