In response to one of our users queries on more information on the Nokia HS-4W I can say yes, I've tried this stylish headset out! I was actually looking forward to this headset after satisfactory experiences with the wired version, Nokia Boom Headset, which I used with my Nokia 7650.
Advantages of the Nokia HS-4W:
-
Like it's wired predecessor, this one sat on my ear quite nicely, although the battery/control component was is a little thick (approx. 1.4mm at it's widest point) for me and made my ear stick out a little.
-
Pairing is just a matter of powering up then searching using your bluetooth devide. No actual button pairing process other than that.
-
Voice quality good
-
Nice and light (21g)
-
Good battery standby (160hrs) and talktime (6hrs)
-
Controls are easy to access
-
Voice Tag compatible
Gripes with the Nokia HS-4W:
-
The colours it comes in, pearl white and pearl mocca are too showy for even me - certainly not something that I would wear in the public, but that's just me.
-
Power button is a little hard to press because it's under a layer of rubber. I just used my fingernail.
-
LED light is green instead of blue
-
No charger packaged with it. Nokia assumes that only Nokia mobile owners will use it!? Guess it saves duplication on chargers for Nokia owners though. You can use the Nokia ACP-12 charger with it though.

Overall I'd give it a 8/10...always liked Nokia products!
