Good product, just some difficulties with the voice recognition not calling the right contact but with time this improves
Given the comments, I expected much better.
positive points :
- discreet and light
- the callers seem to hear me well
- cable for recharging quite long
negative points :
- positioned on the sun visor, so close to my ears, the sound is weak and if I increase, the sound becomes sizzling. It is not uncommon to disconnect it to put the phone to the ear :(. This is for me the biggest flaw of this product
- Low battery life: need to recharge at least every week, even twice a week if used regularly.
- I've been using it for a while now and I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it for a long time, but it's a good idea to use it for a long time.
It's not a replacement for an in-car system. And for those who don't have one, like me, this product is not satisfactory.
I would like to thank you for the great service and the great price.
After almost a month of use, it works like a charm!
Pairing with my two phones is very easy, sound quality is really good for such a small and light device, blends quickly into the decor of my C4. I've been using it for about a month now and it works great.
Also, thanks to Bluetooth 4.0, this device really doesn't consume anything. It's been sitting on my sun visor for almost a month now and the battery is at 50%!
The voice recognition to call your contacts stored on the "primary" phone, works very well, nothing to complain about... Even my names are a bit complicated.
I also polled my friends, asking them how they heard me, none of them objected. Better still, some of them told me they thought I was at home talking on my phone, whereas I was in town with moderate outside noise!
The only thing I struggled with was pairing my 2nd phone. But after reading the user manual, I understood that I simply had to activate the "dual mode". That's it!
Just remember to read the manual as it reveals some really useful hidden features (Last number redial, Magic words, Switch phones between primary/secondary...etc)
I highly recommend it to those who don't have bluetooth built into their car, and who don't want an earpiece, as it distracts from the road.
