So, I go on Overstock as their prices are good and shipping is like $1. But there are so many Blue Tooth for sale from $30 on up. I looked at this 1 and it looks like a better one but thought I would run it by you guys before I buy it.

Thanks

Sounds like a Generic Company, I would stay with the Name Brands

 

just fyi, bluetooth is the wireless technology, the physical device you are looking at is a bluetooth headset

and like Raheel said, I'd stick to name brands. Check the reviews on amazon... I have a plantronics and a logitech and I'm happy with both of them.

bought this off Amazon for about $47 total....

 

Found a couple Motorolas on Ebay a while back for like $35 shipped. They took forever to get here (from China) but they worked and were cheap.

 

You need to be careful what you buy, I have bought Motorola's to RESELL, WHICH LOOK EXACTLY I MEAN EXACTLY like the Originals, even the Manual and Signs, I even got a couple Samsungs that were Fake, they duplicate them in China and make the box and everything identical, over the internet its impossible to tell, but in person you can tel because the charger looks like original but feels aftermarket, the top of the headset is rouger than usual, and also the M Logo on the headset gets cut off in the middle, but its amazing how good they copy it

 

wow! Good to know this. I was kinda bummed as I looked at Ebay after buying off Amazon and found them for much cheaper. Now I know the cheap ones must be the fake ones.

 

I have not had very good luck with any bluetooth headsets so far. I initially bought the Motorola H700 and the sound quality was very poor. I could hear people ok, but they all said I sounded like a robot shouting through a megaphone. It was weird. The sound canceling was chopping off the last syllable of every word I spoke so my speech was very distorted. It was OK if I wasn't driving, but the whole reason for me getting a headset was so I could use it hands free when I was in the car.

I returned the H700 for a Gennum nxZen headset and it is better, but still not as good as a conventional wired headset.

The best headset I've used is one that has two earpieces. It's not the most convenient for driving because of all the wires, but it's lightweight, comfortable, and the sound quality is excellent. It's cool to hear a telephone call in both ears. It makes it much easier to hear people that are in loud areas or are speaking quietly.

 

motorola anything sucks, unless it's a walkie talkie.

jabra IMO make by far the best headsets going. the behind the ear style ones in particular.

 

Astro is right and if u want a cheap Headset try the Jabra BT350, I sell them at my store and no complaints, and its nice and loud and goes for around $30

 

hey guys, sorry to jump on an old thread, but im lookin at gettin the plantronics 655 or jabra, which is better? is it wise to spend 70-80 on a headset or would something around 30-40 do about the same? last i wanted to know i have a cingular 8125 and is it possible to play mp3 thorught the bluetooth headset? thanks

i bought the Motorola H-500 and it seems ok

 

i hate motorola, so far everyone i tried cant hear the other person to well and i tried plantronics 655 wasnt that good either

 

Maybe your ear sucks???

 

i wouldnt mind agreeing with u but had it checked a few months back and they said its fine lol, thanks for tryin tho

 

i liked the jabra ones that go over the ear, but i want something a little smaller, jabras are pretty loud and sound excellent to me, are the smaller ones same in volume? are they also nice and loud?

 

Well My Favorite is the Samsung WEP200, the only problem some people have with it, is that it does not come with a Clip in the box, it goes straight in your ear and holds in, Works Great for me, but depends on your ear size, but you can always buy the hook seperately
