2. The S81 is slightly heavy, but once it's worn it
feels feather light and can be kept on for long
periods. The headset is designed for right
handed people only as is evident from the
placement of buttons on it. All the buttons are
placed on the right ear piece so left handed
users might find it a little uncomfortable to use.
Also, the absence of an adjustable headband
surely becomes very evident for people with
comparatively smaller heads, but it fits snugly
otherwise.
Pairing this device to any cellphone featuring
Bluetooth 2.0+ is an effortless task as it features quick connect technology that allows it to be
connected to devices without the need for passwords. We paired the S81 with the Nokia N8 and within Advertisement

S81 also features the AVRCP profile for
controlling music playback. The control keys LAT EST REVIEWS
placed on the right earpiece can be used to
control song playback, pause, and even song
skip and repeat so the phone stays put in the
pocket while the music plays through the hands
free.
S81 lasts for a little more than 6 hours of music
playback time on a full charge. Battery
consumption is largely governed by volume level
though.
The handsfree set also features a quick charge feature that allows the device to get 75 minutes worth
of playback time for a mini charge of just about 20 minutes. The device comes with a thin power
