The main reason i went with this item is due to the fact that bluetooth just hasn't quite got the quality yet that i'm looking for. This headset has pretty good quality. The earbuds sound pretty good when talking to people & listening to music...how often do you get to listen to a conversation in stereo? :) I haven't had any complaints about the mic so I am guessing that it has pretty good quality too. The only thing i don't like is that it lacks the options to flip through your recently dialed numbers with the button. The only choice you have is to dial your last dialed number. Also when a call is coming in, if you hold the button down to long it ignores the call. This is probably an option but i didn't know about it at the time.
