Does anyone have any input on the samsung wep150.

I'm thinkning about getting one but i haven't seen any reviews anywhere.

it works great with the d500. you can dial anyone on your recent calls list. small, light and convienent.

I highly recommend it. I've been using it for a good while now and works like a charm. It has excellent earpiece volume, fairly good noise filter and is BT v1.2 as well. I also find it very comfortable where I can have it on for many hours and not even notice that I have it on. It has very good battery life and bonds well with practically anything.

I'm using it with my Nokia 6670b, the Motorola V3 Razr, and the Motorola e398. Works superbly with all three phones. Just look at my profile above...

Bottom line: go buy it.

It looks just like the Jabra BT330. Is it the same, just rebranded..

does it go in the ear so that the external noise gets cancelled?
i dont understand why they dont make bluetooth headsets that look like the sony ex71 or other in-ear earphones. those earphones block out all the outside noise.
i also wanted to know if it vibrates.

To answer your concerns and questions:

It does not vibrate. My Jabra BT800 does.
It is not a "true" in-ear design that you were inquiring about. If you are familiar with the Motorola HS820, it sits quite similar to it. If the HS820 is comfortable for you, then the WEP 150 will be great.
The microphone on the Samsung WEP 150 has noise-cancelling capability and works well. It is not as advanced as the Jabra BT800, but it is effective. I've had plenty of positive feedback on the soundquality of my voice to my caller even while in the car. No amount of noise cancelling will help with severe wind-buffering or walking in very windy conditions.

Anyway, I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, ask away here...

Hello,
is there anybody having experience with any of the HBH models working with Samsung D500?...
i`m specifically thinking about HBH 600...
and by the way, what version is the BT on Samsung D500?, is it 1.1 or 1.2?, and if it is 1.2, is it then backward complient or not?...

last question,
Samsung has a BT headset, WKT 150 or WEP 150, why does it have 2 names?, are there 2 differemt models?, and which BT version do they support?, and are they backward complient if they are 1.2?...
can they be used on the computer with messenger or skype?...
and finally, are they better than HBH 600?...
thanks a lot, and sorry that i`ve asked too many question...

Relax! You're overcomplicating it. Any bluetooth headset will work with any bluetooth phone.

can't say i was impressed with it...i'm currently using the HBH-610 and i think it's far superior....the volume was a real issue in my case....

price went down for the wep150. you can get one for about $45 us dollars.

After one week, the fragile earhook fell off and Samsung offers no replacement. Samsung's advice was to buy a new headset! After my experience with Samsung customer service, Samsung will be at the bottom of my list when I purchase consumer electronics in the future.

from my experience they work pretty well, im getting a new one sometime next week im gonna try it out on my lg 8100 hopefully all goes well with it, i had been using the other one on a samsung a930 and it worked perfectly

Would you kindly detail the steps to achieve this?

I have a feeling this is cellphone dependent RATHER BT headset dependent
