Very Pleased With This Unit
By R. Holen
Due to the new regulations going into effect on January 3rd of 2012 where commercial drivers are required to go hands free on their cellphones and no texting allowed, I decided to try a more comfortable bluetooth unit. I have been using a Motorola HX-1 bone conduction model for a year or so, and found that it would get annoying after about five hours and I'd have to take it out. That's not really an option now, to use the phone I have to be hands free for the whole day. This new version of the B250 adds A2DP, which I wanted, so I could hear when I received a text or email, not that I could whip out the phone and text back, but so that at the next stop I didn't have to whip out the phone to check and see if I got a message, I would already know if there was a new message or not from the phone sending me an alert. As for the headset, it just works and doesn't fall off my head when I move. It has more than enough volume so that I can hear the caller very clearly and everyone I've talked to with the headset doesn't even realize I'm in the truck. One touch voice dialing works perfectly. The headset is a little large and won't win any awards for style, it makes you look a little geeky, but it works. The only annoyance I had with this unit was the blue flashing connect light when the headset was on, but I found you could disable it by tapping the volume up/down buttons at the same time. Then you just have to remember it is on when you are done for the day and shut it off. I tried it over the weekend on a full charge, basically on for two twelve hour days with about five hours of talk time and never ran out of battery. I would recommend this headset to anyone would needs to go hands free and doesn't want the wet ear from the standard bluetooth headsets. This unit was paired to an HTC EVO 4G by sprint and a Motorola V950 and both worked perfectly.

By J. Toler
I purchased this item for my dad because of the new law regarding truck drivers talking on cell phones while driving. He was torn on purchasing this model, or purchasing a smaller more fashionable model. This was a GREAT purchase. He is not a "techy" person at all, and it was so easy, he set up the headset on his new phone with no help at all.After using the unit for about 3 weeks now:He can hear people better than before when just talking on the phone itself. When others talk to him, they all comment on how clear he sounds. "It sounds like you're in the room with me" is the most popular comment. There is NO truck noise/CB noise/wind noise when windows are down. None! he loves the headset, and already has friends who plan on ordering the same model. He said that the headset is more comfortable than he expected. He is able to wear it for long periods of time...which he didn't plan on doing before he ordered.I did hesitate to purchase this because I was told by Amazon (on chat) that the item doesn't come with a charger. I was told that I would have to purchase chargers separately. Thanks to the previous reviewer, I found out otherwise and made the purchase. I would like to clarify that this item came with a home charger AND a car charger. Hopefully they will update the listing.

Better and worse than its predecessor
By M. MCINTYRE
The B250-XT+ is both better and worse than its predecessor, the B250-XT.In the plus column, this is still a headset you can wear hanging your head out the window in an extremely noisy semi and the guy on the other end thinks you're in a quiet room. The microphone arm is a bit longer, so it's easier to position it exactly in the sweet spot. There's this nice British woman who tells you whether your headset is connected, when you drop a call, and so on, with a proper stiff upper lip, and an aversion to the letter R.In the minus column, the stupid blue "look at me, I'm a moron" lights come on every single time you connect, and they have to be turned off again and again, whereas with the older model you'd turn them off once and be done with them. The new version doesn't sit on the head as securely as the old, and it feels somehow cheaper. It's much easier to dislodge with a flick of the head than before, and it never really feels secure, no matter what you do.On balance, the + version has more going for it than against it, and I'll be buying the + version whenever this one gives up the ghost. As always the BlueParrott is the headset that makes you look like an imbecile, and the headset that actually works well in an 18-wheeler. Sadly, there's no way to have one without the other at this time.
