I’m back with my writing about the Nokia E71. This time, however, I won’t rant about the best Nokia smartphone — rather I’ll talk about the Nokia BH-602 Bluetooth headset, which Nokia included in the box that was sent to me.
In a nutshell – the headset rocks! It’s simple, elegant and comfortable to carry around. But what strikes me the most is the charging time. The BH-602 is charged within 15 minutes! And it’s not charged for an hour or so of use — after those 15 minutes, you can use it for up to 5 hours in talk mode. Wow!
If you opt to fully charger the headset’s 210 mAh Lithium-Ion Polymer battery, it will serve you for up to 11 hours of talk and up to 300 hours of standby time.
Naturally, the Nokia BH-602 also comes with some sort of DSP (digital signal processing) technology that makes hearing calls easier, even in noisy environments. I’m not an expert in this field, but I can say the sound quality is more than decent.
Finally, with the Nokia BH-602 you can answer and end calls, control the volume, and voice dial directly from the headset (your phone must support this function and E71 does). A LED indicator is there to show how much talk time you have left.
To sum it up – if you need a new Bluetooth headset, I would strongly recommend considering the Nokia BH-602!
