Bluetooth headset for E61, how about Nokia BH-800?

3 replies · 2,282 views · Started 23 August 2006

I've tried the Nokia BH-700 and its not compatible. Once connected to it the sounds go to the lowest level and I cant increase the volume at all!!! it always keeps on decreasing to lowest level.. bummer...

Qeustions:
1. What Bluetooth headset are you using for E61? is it fully compatible?
2. Anyone uses Nokia BH-800 with the E61? I really like the Nokia BH-800... please give me a good review before purchasing it 😃
3. How long is the lifetime for Nokia Bluetooth headsets? Any experience... since the battery is not replaceable if I'm not mistaken...

I use the BH-800 with the E61, sad to say that it's buggy, some comments:

Volume resets to the lowest every time I reconnect.
Disonnects and connects back regularly.
Volume is not loud enough even at highest level.
Bugs are probably in the E61, not in the headset itself.
Neck chain breaks easily.

Just my 0.02.

:frown: too bad... it seems all the Bluetooth headsets act the same with E61, or with all E series? Or is it S60v3?

I hope the coming firmware update will fix this, till then I suppose I will still need to rely on the standard handsfree, I hate the cables and the trouble in plug/unplugging it while driving.
