Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone Best Review

I've used this unit for several weeks now and I have to say that I am really impressed. I've used Bluetooth devices for years and this one is by far the best.

Originally I'd used a Motorola single ear Bluetooth earpiece and then several Jabra single ear headsets but I always had the following problems:

They were never loud enough for me. I would struggle with hearing, and would have to press the earpieces continuously into my ear to understand what was being said -so much for hands free driving! Plus, the earpieces, obviously, only provided sound to ONE ear. I don't know about you, but if I had a choice I'd rather not have something in my ear, and would rather use both ears to listen.

Additionally, some of the ear pieces were afflicted with echoes or delays, and I'd have to ask the other person to repeat what they said so that I'd understand.

Another problem was that when I would take the earpiece out of the car and transport it in my pocket, it would often fall out (because it would get hooked on the pocket and then bump loose and fall). I lost two that way, and ruined one by letting my clothes go through the wash with an earpiece inside. (Well, it actually worked after the wash, but you get my drift...)

The most annoying thing, however, was that I had to charge it often or it would start beeping, and I would have to do so regularly, which was a pain. I ended up charging it every night (along with my phone) just so I wouldn't forget.

So THEN I went to using my GPS which had Bluetooth capability built in. This was a HUGE step up over using the in ear headset. However, that also had two issues. First was that there was sometimes background noise. When going 65 mph in the car the road noise would sometimes muffle the conversation on the other end. Second, the GPS speaker, though appropriately situated for the GPS device, was not in the best location for hearing calls. It was on the BACK of the GPS (which makes sense because the GPS screen is in front), and I would hear conversations that would first have to bounce off the front window and then come back to me -not the most direct route. And third, and most annoyingly, every time I left the car the GPS would deactivate and I'd have to go into my phone's settings to re-pair with the GPS device. This took about 30 seconds and was not something I liked to do when driving! (At first I thought it was an issue with my phone, but when I got the Jabra Cruiser In Car Speakerphone I no longer had this issue...)
