Although the sound quality is very good, both out and in, I have had problem with my unit. It just restarts ever so often. Anything from 5 minutes to working fine for half an hour. A dodgy unit? Sorry to say, I am now on my third unit. Is it something with the iPhone I use? Up-to-date software, and it's not the Bluetooth that restarts, it's the whole unit.
