* The old hands free CARK Kit . .

Advantages: Very good sound reproduction, always set up ready for use.
Disadvantages: Needs an external anrenna, plus fitting. Dated nowadays.

...kit does. It holds your Nokia phone securely in your car, van, truck, to your dashboard or wherever you like. It trickle charges your mobile battery. It provides a mike and proper speaker, both separate to, and better than, the mobile phone's original ones. This particular kit is specific to the following models:- Nokia 6310i, Nokia 6310, Nokia 6210, Nokia 6110, Nokia 6150 Other kits are based on this, and can be found for many other mobile ...
...little out of date, (as are the phones is it made for) but the principle is brilliant, you have a phone holder that gives genuine hands free operation, with sound that is virtually as good as a radio. Your own voice is picked up and transmitted with the same clarity. The holder itself is very good, if a little large by modern standards, it holds the phone safely and securely, whilst recharging the phone battery. There is no vibration, and the phone ...

Review of Nokia CARK 91 Hands-free kit

Sony Ericsson Battery

Advantages: It Holds A Long Charge
Disadvantages: They Can Sometimes Not Work

...When I First Got My Sony Ericsson I Loved It. The Battery Could Hold A Massive Charge And I Could Go For Days With Just One Charge. It Seemed that If I Were To Leave The Phone On Charge That It Would Fully Charge (From No Battery At All) Within 30 - 45 Minutes. I Use My Phone A Lot And With All The Phones Which I Have Went Through I Have found That This Battery Holds A Better Charge Than Any Other. On Average I Could Get 2 Days From A Charge. I Don't ...
...After A Little Research I Found That Not Too Many People Had The Same Problem So It Must Have Just Benn That Battery. I Would Defiantly Recommend Buying A Sony Ericsson Over Any Other Phone If You Use The Phone A Lot Or You Travel A Lot ...

Review of Sony Ericsson BST-33

Ear We go!

Advantages: Easy to use, holds charge for a long time, shiny
Disadvantages: none

I got this headset free with my new mobile a few days ago and i have to say im impressed. The unit its self is made out of a sturdy plastic that is quite shiny and reflective and has a rubber ear hook that can be adjusted to fit either the left or right ear. I would say the length of the unit is about 6cm and 3cm wide. It has 3 buttons on it, up volume, down volume and call answer/end. It looks as good as a Bluetooth headset can really, well you ...
...In the box you get a charger and the manual but the unit is very easy to use and I had paired it with my Motorola V3XX in a matter of minutes. The manufacturer says that it will hold a battery charge for 6 hours worth of talk time or 110 hours standby which is more than enough for me. To connect it to you phone is simple as I said before, all you have to do is hold the volume up button and call answer button down for 3-5 seconds to make it discoverable ...

Review of Jabra BT150

Safer calling in the car

Advantages: Easy to set up and use, small unintrusive unit
Disadvantages: No caller ID screen

...obviously don't need to be Sony Ericsson (any bluetooth enabled handset should be compatible). The unit could also be used at you desk / at home as it is very small and sits well on a flat surface. Included in the box was a mains and car charger so it's easy to keep charge topped up. I paid £59.99 from Carphonewarehouse which I think is good value for money, and well worth spending to avoid the increased penalties for illegal use of mobiles in ...

Review of Sony Ericsson HCB-100 Bluetooth Car Speakerphone

Motorola S9. The Curate's Egg of Headsets

Advantages: First Class 'Hands free' performance Great stereo effect
Disadvantages: Badly let down by drop ous whilst on the move.

...Bluetooth connection between Phone ( Motorola V8) and headset. This connection delivered a strong signal to my ears and made my play lists ( mostly light classical music with a few of Sinatra's offerings mixed in) really come alive. Stereo effect has a very slight bias towards the left hand speaker, but I'm putting that down to my 69 years old Mk. I lug 'oles, not performing as they used to! General Performance. Overall very good. PROVIDING one ...
...whilst on the move, Motorola needs to have serious second thoughts. "Hands Free" When set up to automatically receive incoming calls it comes into its own as a fine instrument, given the odd vagaries of Motorola's V8 Voice call software,... " Say a command or name", then when one does this, the software replies "Did you say ******'s MOBEEL?" Answering "Yes" gets one connected. Answering "No" switches the strongly American accented voice off. . ...
