Anyone have a headset for their cell?

 

[sleepydoc]

Yeah, I have a Plantronics.

Want it?

 

[caudio51]

Nah, I picked one up today for my new phone. Going to see how I like it...

 

[sleepydoc]

I never could shake the feeling that people were looking at me and thinking that I was talking to myself.

I bought a Motorola one for my Razr a few months ago. It was on closeout sale for $30. It works pretty well. My only complaint is that the max volume could be louder.

Sometimes when I wear it and people give me a strange look - I flip open my cell and say "Scotty, beam me up". :robosmile

Ok - now you are talking my specialty. I've tested and reported in our company on 10 different ones in the past two months. What are you looking for in a headset? If you want one that works in quiet environments, use one of the Motorola that simply sit outside the ear. If you want one for loud environments, either go with the Jabra 500 or the Plantronics 320...

I bought the Motorla H500 at Best Buy (rip off, cough, cough, rip off) so I could try it out. I made a few calls and it works great, love having a head set.

I might try out the Jabra or the Plantronics.

Any good places to order them online?

I Have 2 and the only time I use it is for Listening to Music from the note book. I Don't use my personal phone near as much as I did, so no big reason to have one anymore. I'm a fan of using it in the car, but thats about it..

Have a Motorola headset; only wear it while I'm in the car though. Don't like that thing hanging on my ear all the time.

Yep, www.blueshop.com is the best all around I've found and they have a good return policy...

I've got the Motorola HS810. I've liked it. I much prefer talking on that rather than the handset while driving. The sound is generally good but it does seem to make a weak signal even worse when I'm between towers. You'll have that out here in the boonies.

i first got the motorola HS810, but the battery life was a little short and the audio would crackle a little too often for my liking, so i got an HS850 and it was worth it. i hated getting the cords from the regular earbuds tangled in my seatbelt all the time, and the bluetooth headsets kick ass

I am surprised you have ANY signal out there! :rofl:

Motorola and luv it !!!!

Clear as a bell and never have a problem with it.

I have a Jabra that sounds great, but it really chews up the battery power on my Motorola phone. I like it...I just have to remember to keep both pieces on charge every night.

I have the Plantronics Voyager 510. It works great and is priced right. 4 or 5 others at work bought it and love it too. You can get it from Newegg or buy.com for about $45 or $40 if you catch a sale.

Yeah, it's hit or miss here even though we're practically a suburb of DC. Dropped calls get frustrating for some of the people I talk to.

 

[caudio51]

Well I'm happy with the H500 I got from Best Buy. I'm gonna return it cause I can get it a lot cheaper online

 

[tobby4]

I have a Motorola something.. I dont know but I love it

I had to get it when I had knee surgery and was on crutches for 2 months and could not hold the phone
