About your headset
With the Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-121, you can turn any pair of headphones into a wireless
headset. Just pair up the devices, plug in your headphones, and you're ready to go.
If you have 2 phones, you can connect them both to the headset simultaneously. The noise-blocking
in-ear headphones give you a clear and powerful sound, and 3 different sizes of earbuds help you
find the perfect fit.
