How short is very short? I used mine today after a full charge and it lasted less than an hour before it cut off! Is anyone else experiencing this or do I have a faulty headset? I have a motorola bt headset too and that also has a talktime of 2.5 hours and it lasts much longer than the hbh-60. I was planning of getting rid of the motorola headset and replace it with the HBH-60 but I'm not so sure anymore. Any advice guys?????! Thanks!

I haven't really been counting the actual time, but in a mix of standby and talk time, I've had to charge it every other day.
If your battery charge lasts only one hour, I would suggest you get it checked out by SE.

My HBH-30 works great. If you don't have a BT headset yet... I'd say go for the HBH-60. But seriously? To upgrade a BT headset just isn't a great idea since all BT headsets (except Bluespoon) will be using the same BT chipset. So it's kind of pointless.
I tried the HBH-60 and it's really small... not that much lighter than the HBH-30...it actually feels heavier on the ear since all the weight is on the outer part of the headset... the HBH-30 distributes the battery at the back of the ear so the headset FEELS lighter when worn.
The HBH-60 also has a much shorter battery life than the HBH-30 since it had to use a smaller battery.
Just get the one that looks best for you. They're all the same. Except of course, for Bluespoon.

I used it(HBH60) for 20-25min phone call everyday.....on it from 7am to 10pm but it manage to last 2 to 2.5 days.
Some how I notice there's no "Beep" warning when it is lin low battery state. I used HBH20 before and tht manage to Beep to give me warning.
does HBH30 have those warning too?
like jplacson...it's still depends on your preference.
the biggest advantage to use HBH60 is you can easily know /learn the way to wear it.

Sunil,
I charged it the first time for about 1.5 - 2 hours. I didn't leave it charging longer because I wanted to try it.
Good luck with your new unit.

Thanks vacoum, i'll let you know what happens with the next one!
Just one last question though...do you leave your headset on or off? I still don't know weather the 72 hour standby time refers to the headset being completely off or being on but idle? Thanks for your help
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
I never turn it off. I figure that it's good to have it on all the time.
I think the standby time refers to the HBH-60 being on.
