Features of the Jabra BT800 Bluetooth Headset:
Functions at your fingertips
All the features and operations you're so familiar with on your mobile, are now available from the headset itself. Using just four controls
- the mute button, jog wheel, 'Answer' and 'End' buttons
- accessing the functionality you need is easy and natural. For example, the jog wheel
- used for scrolling through menu functions in standby mode
- becomes the volume control during a call. Soon it'll be second nature.

Blue backlit screen
Unique to the BT800 is the blue backlit LCD display, which shows 'Caller ID' on incoming calls so you know who's calling - no need to look at your phone. You can also use it to view the phone's call list and menu options.

Digital Signal Processing
The BT800's unique Digital Signal Processing (DSP) means that, whatever the environment, you are assured of optimum audio quality. DSP's automatic volume control compensates for noisy surroundings by increasing the listening level accordingly and noise cancellation technology means that the incoming caller can hear you more clearly.

'Vibrate alert' or favourite ring tone
The BT800's call vibrate/ring tone function enables you to select your favourite ring tone from the headset itself. Or if you prefer, simply set the BT800 to 'vibrate only', so you silently know when a call is coming through.
