I was very excited to get this product. But I was very disappointed. First, you cannot adjust the volume on iphone. It’s pretty loud. And then most importantly, when I listen to my iphone using these ear piece, the music keeps on getting interrupted. I cannot listen to one single song without the music get interrupted. I thought I found my perfect ear set because it’s so small and portable in the gym, but now it’s going back to Amazon. I’m going to look for an alternative.

OK, this did work for the phone but absolutely not for listening to music. I did investigate before buying but everything siad you need to use the volume control on the phone. I have a SE W350 phone and it paired easily. Used it on the phone and volume control works. On the Walkman it only plays at FULL volume, no adjustment. Called SE support and they didn’t have a clue until they did more research then they told me there is no volume control for the music. Full run around from support or lack thereof. I called them one more time and asked them of all the phones, on their website, that they show compatability with; which one can control the music volume? The answer from them was NONE. Not one of the phones will control music volume on the headset. It is automatic only and on mine that is FULL VOLUME only. Enough to blow the hair off your head. Just wasted my time and money. False Advertiseing is what I say. Don’t get stung like I did.

“OW TURN IT OFF ITS A PIECE OF C…” is pretty much what I said when I tried it on. I am now deaf in my left ear due to lack of volume control and an expectation that my iphone’s control would quickly turn it down. Nope. I’m in disbelief that anyone would make a product these days that isn’t specifically “iphone compatible”. You silly kids…

I love the idea of the HBH-IS800; small, lightweight, unobtrusive. I was very excited to try the HBH-IS800 with my iPhone, but after working with it for a couple of days I’m disappointed overall. I feel there are far too many drawbacks or limitations with the HBH-IS800, and they make it a poor choice for a Bluetooth stereo headset, in my opinion.
1. Price: $120+ is far too much to pay for the limited features, sound and voice quality.
2. Compatibility: The HBH-IS800 is not 100% compatible with the iPhone 3G / 3GS and OS 3.x. The iPhone’s volume control does not work when playing music over the HBH-IS800 due to the incompatibility.
3. Audio: Mediocre. I noticed flutter and hiss when playing music with sharp highs, silences and pauses, such as classical pieces; too much hiss for acoustic guitar; weak bass response.
4. Microphone: Definitely not a noise reducing mic. People I was talking to had a hard time hearing me, the background noise from my end was very loud, voice echo was very pronounced. Voice-dialing did not work well due to the poor mic quality.
5. Features: On-headset controls are virtually non-existent; no volume control, no mute, no forward / reverse / skip for music playback.

Nice looking, small and light weight.
Average sound and over-priced.
You CANNOT adjust the volume from a iPod Touch or iPhone. This is a big, big minus.
I do not recommend this item. There are better choices out there.
