I have used a great many Bluetooth headsets in my day. I’ve watched the technology evolve and I’ve seen headsets from every manufacturer; whether it’s a headset from a company that’s built a brand and has been around for a while, or a new company trying to lay stake to a claim on a portion of the Bluetooth headset market.

I’ve tested this latest high-end headset offering from Nokia for a week now and it’s time for the detailed review of this little gem.

The key features of the Nokia BH-904 match those of other high-end Bluetooth headset offerings and a couple features go above and beyond. First, you have multipoint technology to pair the headset with up to two devices at once; allowing you to multitask as needed throughout your workday. Next up, the headset offers dual microphones to cancel out background noise during calls for clear communication. These are great standard options to have on a Bluetooth headset.

Nokia also designed the headset in such a way as to allow a sliding boom microphone to extend the microphone over an inch closer to your mouth as needed. This helps the microphones find your voice and distinguish you from the ambient noise around you. One last feature that goes above the call of duty is the super-quick charging time. With just 15 minutes of charging, you’ll get 5 hours of talk time out of the headset. Charge up for a full 35 minutes and you’ll get the maximum 8 hours of charge time – an entire workday, after just a half hour of charging.

 The BH-904 features Bluetooth v ersion 2.1 with enhanced data rate, EDR, operating on Bluetooth Handsfree profile (HFP) 1.5 and Headset profile (HSP) 1.1. Measuring 53 x 19.7 x 10.8mm and weighing in at 18.2g, the headset is bigger than most; however, it’s really lightweight both in the hand and on the ear. It offers the usual features of answering and ending calls, muting calls, and adjusting volum. Thankfully, you’re able to adjust volume while on a call with a sort of volume rocker that slides one way for increased volume and the other for lowered volume. The charging jack is a standard microUSB charging connector.
