I like this earpiece but it does not always recognize my voice when there is background noise. I'd suggest using Jabra's eargels with this since it looks like it would be a real pain to keep clean using only what Samsung provides. I don't have range issues since I have the phone in my shirt pocket (right pocket/right ear). Have to keep checking to make sure it's still in my ear! It is very light weight and comfortable but feels like it could be easily dislodged. Have tried out several earpieces of this type and this is the best for now. The blinking light is very bright and I don't like to advertise that I'm using this in public so I dotted the light with a bit of nail polish and took care of the problem.
