Plantronics 2500 vs Jabra 250?

Anyone compared the two? (similar design) How do they compare?

Have got both of these of these - very similar in battery life.

I like the answer/end button on the M2500
Prefer the fit of the BT250 - the M2500 seems to work loose, were the BT
stays firmly in my ear, but then that may be different for other people.

Voice dialling seems to work better on my K700i with the M2500

Apart from that it's very difficult to separate the two

Do you find any difference in sound quality and reception, incoming and/or
outgoing?

Of course, one major difference in price. The Plantronics M2500 could be
bought for about $40 (I think $37.95 on Amazon, free shipping and no tax),
and the Habra BT250 for about twice that, lowest prices about $75-$80.

Interesting that the model numbers are so similar, with one zero extra in
the Plantronics 2500.

Very little difference in BT reception. the M2500 seems to connect a little
quicker (on all phones). The BT250 seems better sound quality, but that
maybe because it fits my ear better.

Problem with headsets is finding a place that will let you try one on!. Some
headsets - like the ones that sit on the outside of your ear just don't work
with me.

I can't tell you about the 2500, but I LOVE my Jabra 250.
I had an older model Plantronics which I didn't like. It always
felt like it was going to fall off my ear. I prefer the in the ear
version of the 250. Sound quality is excellent.
