Nokia Solo Bud in-Ear Mono Wireless Headset for Work – SB-101 Single Earbud with Touch Control - Superior Sound, Smart Assistant Compatible, 6.5-Hour Talk Time, Comfortable Fit

Good for daily use but felt a little discomfort with the hanger on ear. Sound battery and use is good.

This mono headset by Nokia is nicely designed, it's comfortable to wear and the battery life is decent i get a whole day out of a single charge that includes being on calls for a few hours a day then in-between I like to listen to audio books, it has a large round button that is multifunctional (MFB) and 2 smaller buttons on the side that control the sound level as well as skip music tracks forwards or backwards when playing media, the device is charged using micro usb which seems a bit dated especially coming from Nokia, the ear piece gives good quality sound and it is very easy to hear what your caller is saying but the microphone is something different there's no background noise cancelling and the microphone pics everything up, it also makes you sound like your voice is being muffled to the caller, you find all of your callers constantly saying "sorry what was that?" I paid £20 for this headset which isn't expensive for a bluetooth headset but the microphone almost makes the device unusable in some situations, you'd expect better from such a big brand like Nokia.I hope you find this review useful.

Both the product and the seller leave much to be desired and are best avoided.The Nokia Bluetooth earphone sufficiently strong sound on the user’s end, but the counterpart’s sound quality is poor, making clear communication impossible and the device unfit for purpose.Tests conducted against a Jabra headset highlighted the significant superiority of the latter.To compound the disappointment, the seller was uncooperative, forcing me to involve Amazon to resolve the return process. A deeply unsatisfactory experience overall.Steer clear of both seller and unit.

I've been through a number of these bluetooth mono in ear headsets, and must say this is the best one of them yet.Placing this on your ear is easy with good comfort, easily able to last an hour long call without discomfort. Unlike many others, there's no hint of wobble and no need to readjust with your hand to stop the thing falling off your ear.The sound quality like most of these is pretty bad for music - tinny/muddy and a bit distorted at high volumes. However that's the same for just about everyone of these in this price range.For speech though, it works pretty well and I've had no problems with that, and it performs as well or better than all the others I've had in this price range.The biggest plus with this headset isn't the incoming sound though, it's what you don't hear... it's the outgoing sound quality. I've had other people listening for me whilst I tested, and in a blind test out of about 4 other budget headsets of this style, I was assured this was by far the clearest of them all in terms of voice, not muffled, not too loud, not too quite, decent block of background noise - in fact pretty damn perfect I was told.As a bonus (but also like many of this sort), it is able to pair to two devices at once.So overall for £20, I'd say this is definitely my pick of mono bluetooth headsets, and the new favourite benchmark which I will be comparing all others against in future. Highly recommended!can comfor

This is fantastic:holds charge for plenty of timeCan be used for phone or musicThe sound is clear and of good quality for it's price and size, both for me and the person on the other end of the phoneThe light that indicates when it's charging is a good featureIt tells you via audio when the battery is getting low which is goodAnd the ear hook piece is detachable meaning I can wear it on either ear.The only flaw is that the multi sized earpieces although are of good quality aren't comfortable to wear for very long which is the only reason I've given it 4 stars and not 5.

To start with, the battery doesn’t last even up to the five hours mentioned. You can answer and reject calls easily by touching twice. When there’s a call and the Bluetooth is off, after turning on, it doesn’t connect automatically. It requires you to reconnect manually on your phone. The worst of it all is the ear hook. It hurts the ear all the time. The ear hook is too sharp that I got injured wearing it.Make corrections to the above and the earbud is good. I’m returning it.

I'm actually quite impressed with this Nokia Solo Bud. I've tried other single ear Bluetooth headsets over the years, but just haven't got on with then. I'd resigned to using standard 2 ear Bluetooth headsets for my work laptop and phone, however they have been a bit hit and miss still.This headset works perfectly out if the box. The first thing you'll notice is how small it is. I anticipated it would be 3 or 4 times the size, but it's actually tiny.The buttons on this are simple. There's a power on/off/function button, plus volume up and down.You get a selection of different rubbers to put on it for the best for for you. There's also a plastic ear hook, however I found that this isn't needed.This will connect to multiple devices, so my laptop and work phone are both connected. What I also like is that it will tell you if it's disconnected and also easily reconnect if you walk back into range. I wasn't getting this happen when using my music headphones.The only slight niggle is with the micro USB charging port. Come on Nokia, everyone uses usb-c these days. Luckily I have a micro usb cable already on my desk, otherwise this would be quite an inconvenience.Overall, this is definitely well recommended and perfectly meets my needs.

Sound quality ok but nothing special, ear clips break so often they're sold in packs of 20. If you can make these fit your ears who knows? I hated them and no longer use them.
