In fact, have already supplied it is clear that we face an inexpensive solution. Not only that charge is only for the car, so more and a non-standard connector, something he looks like the one that was in the Samsung D600, however, be charged from such a device SP5050 not wanted. There is no carrying case or cloth to wipe, no cradle ... However, what I mean?
Design and construction
The design is very good, no more and no less. Headset is slim, stylish, elegant in its appearance and can not say that it is so worth it. By the way, what about the name, I think that call these veshchichki loud the phrase "car kit" at least not true, as the maximum - in the wrong. PA system - is when specially trained people for a long time and carefully mounted in a car specially selected and tested the thing that will be continual part of your car. And this is - well, just car headset, external speakerphone, which is nice at least to not hold the phone at the ear, clutching his shoulder. Continue about the design: I liked it, well chosen color, though they are not very rich, but the combination I was pleased. Insert dark gray bordered with a lighter portion, the "top" made of black glossy plastic, it is very hidden, well, just very high quality indicators implemented. When the headset is not included, and you will not guess about them, when engaged, you see a red circle, confirming the status, and two blue ringlet (lit when the headset is paired with your phone). In the dark, lights perfectly clear they do not distract your attention. The assembly is good, no cracks, no gaps, and how cool button is the most multifunction button! By the way, hiding it under a dark-gray insert the driver is just a gift - not something out there a little button on the face, and a large panel on which you can just lightly slap to answer the call.
Pro headset say that it is a fine solution, actually, this is the case. But at the same time, compare the dimensions of the device with speakerphone from Motorola. As you can see, subtlety is directly linked to an increase in the length and width, although it does not matter, given that the SP5050 will be hanging on the visor, and not in your ear. By the way, fastening is made of wire, it is safe.Device weighs about 80 grams, it is not so much.
Management
About the multifunction key, I have already said, clicking it twice, you activate the last number redial, hold - have an opportunity to voice dialing. The commands are executed quickly and clearly, there is practically no delay (tested with the P990i). Located at the ends of the volume keys, basically, you can leave the adjustment by default, but if you want louder, then press the right button. The left side is covered by a rubber stuff connector for the charger, I get that thing did not seem reliable - the material is very soft, from the constant use may well come off. In principle, it can be done immediately, the look of it has little effect. By the way, you're not physically able to charge the headset when it is hooked to the peak, but if you put it on the torpedo, the sound quality. Therefore, the SP5050 will either have to charge in a traffic jam or on the road, turning off the phone.
Management is absolutely clear and logical, is unlikely to occur with any problems.
Food
As stated by the manufacturer, the headset can work for 12 hours of talk time and 200 hours of standby time. A couple of days of intense suffering it was found that SP5050 is working at least half of the stated time. In fact, if not particularly active use - an hour of calls a day - it can hold three or four days without recharging. This is a good result, you may well not worry about it. Full-charge time is about two hours, let's hope that the company specifically for the Jabra SP5050 release network charger to safely charge it at home.
By the way, here is realized interesting feature - if you're not doing anything with the headset in 15 minutes, it "sleeps" after switching on the phone Push email. Function quite useful, happy time - well, that is not two minutes.
Communication with the phone and sound quality
I tested the headset with your smartphone SonyEricsson P990i, pairing occurred without any problems. To activate, press and hold the multifunction key until the headset indicator flashes blue. After that find her phone number, enter the password (0000), and your band is ready to work. It is realized Profile Bluetooth 2.0. Reliable connection, the connection during testing is not interrupted even once. But as voice quality, it's not so simple. The two sides seemed to divide into two camps - ring up a dozen of his friends, as a result of the three expressed their strong "phi", the others agreed on the fact that although not very healthy, but still I have heard. Why is not it great? There is a slight echo, some extraneous noise, the voice of a little cotton. I've heard all equally good, the volume is large (left and stock). As shown, a lot depends on how the headset is in its normal state - when it is attached to the visor, and it is slightly bent down, voice quality is not bad enough, but when the headset, say, lies at your fingertips on the charge, then you hear very bad. Interestingly, the SP5050 fared well as a regular office speakerphone, I even like to talk at your desk, do not hold the phone at the ear. In general, just in case I would appreciate the voice settings on a triple-plus, much depends on your phone, the environment, positive vibrations, etc. etc.
Conclusions
The main competitor SP5050 - is first and foremost, Motorola T305, I judge it by price, they are in this parameter is somewhere nearby. Let's look at the pros and cons of SP5050, before saying that it is better and worse. Pros:
Good design (and different things like the indicators, the holder of the wire)
Very convenient control
For a long time
Low price
Disadvantages, respectively, were as follows:
Not (yet) the possibility of charge from the usual outlets
Voice quality is not the best, but there is a DSP, which to some extent, protects against noise and echo (true operation of the system is not very noticeable)
If we talk about the Motorola T305, then this headset voice quality noticeably better, but worse than the design (especially the light on half a length) and ergonomics. Yes, and it costs a bit more expensive, but can be charged from anything whatever. In general, I draw this conclusion: if you are looking for cost-effective solution for talking hands-free in the car, then pay attention to both of these products at a price they are very attractive. The only thing to buy highly recommend SP5050 connect to your phone and talk to a distance of 30-40 centimeters - if you do not like it, you should not buy it. Such is the banal but useful advice.
