To make a call using your Bluetooth headset, dial the number as you normally would. If you're using a headset that accepts voice commands, you may be able to dial by voice. Once you've entered the number to call, your iPhone will present you with a list of options. You can choose to use your Bluetooth headset, your iPhone, or the iPhone's speakerphone to make the call.

Tap the Bluetooth headset icon, and the call will go there. Requiring no recording, training or tweaking to work, the interface responds to a range of voice commands.

Operation involves pressing the BlueAnt button and speaking a command. Commands range from a simple ones like "answer" or "ignore" to others like "check battery". The BlueGenie system is simple and effective, and it recognised our voice almost every time we spoke a command. As with most BlueAnt products, sound quality is excellent.

The T1 rugged Bluetooth headset is the first to feature the company's Wind Armour technology, which the company says combines design features with noise-cancellation software. BlueAnt claims the T1 can effectively mask wind speeds of up to 35kph. While Sydney's weather didn't let us test the full extent of BluAnt's claims, the T1 definitely handles wind noise with ease. We managed to achieve crisp and clear incoming and outgoing audio even in noise in noisy environments such as heavy traffic.
