anybody have some suggestions?
looking for something >$75

Jawbone Icon, 30 dollars on various on line places. If price were no object, get the newer Jawbone. But for 30 dollars, you wont really care if you do loose it.

cheers and thanks mate!
jawbone seems to be the #1 choice......
anything else guys?

plantronic discovery 925. or if you want bettery battery and 3x charging power of the original case charging feature, the plantronic discovery 975. catch them when they're on sale on amazon. <$50. heck they might be less than 50 now. go. check. now.

Nokia BH 503.
Has excellent sound bass, its battery life is unending, and its very resistant, dropping endlessly without damage. Its reception is great too, and so is the in built mic... you can have full conversations anywhere that u dont have to whisper. I haz onez! Very Good.

Voyager Pro
I love my Plantronics Voyager Pro. The plus is out now so the old pro should be in your price range

I have used a Jawbone Icon for more than a year now. Good stuff! Today I was driving 70 down I-5 with my driver's side window rolled down (no choice, it broke today) and I didn't have any trouble carrying on a conversation with my husband. So, that's my vote. Good luck with your decision.

He said above $75 ;-)
Not to steal the thread, but does anyone have a recommendation for bluetooth headphones (not headset)?

Don't know if this is for you but I prefer to use one of these and then use my normal headphones on it.

Im also looking for some headphones cause my S9-hd buttons stopped working due to sweat but they did last for 2 years. I have been trying to find some that are meant for running and are sweat resistant and have a nice fit.
If your looking for some headphones that are over $75.

Wait? I'm supposed to read this stuff before posting? Meh. I never have been good at following directions. Heh.
I haven't used BT headphones in ages. Never had much luck with them... they either hurt my ears or broke too quickly.

I don't know how much they're going for now but I picked up a BlueAnt T1 when it first came out and it was the best 80 bucks spent on a BT headset. Been through 5 in the last 2 years and this one takes the cake so far. Decent talk time. Standby time is phenomenal. Deafeningly loud when turned all the way up. Most of all, comfortable enough to wear all day (but to each his own here).

Look up the plantronics backbeat. Altec Lansing speakers. They are awesome

[Q] Stereo Bluetooth Jabra HALO vs Rocketfish RF-MAB2

Hello,
I am planning to buy a stereo bt headset to use with phone and computer. I am having Jabra HALO and Rocket fish RF-MAB2 as my options. Any one have experience with one of these how is the quality and durability?
BTW I am considering Jabra because they are cheap today at http://mobile.dailysteals.com/ for just 25 + some shipping, But are they any good? how is the audio quality of Rocketfish. I am fine with not good looks but I really want good audio quality...so any insight on this would be great also please suggest me if there are any options around $60-$70 price tag..
thanks!
Jabra BT3030 is another option if you want to use your own headphones.
I am not to sure about price range , but I can tell you I bought motorola 's S9HD about 20 months ago , best purchase ever and eventhe mic quality is decent I dont get complaints eventho its obvious Im using a headset ,but for music the sound quality is just GREAT (battery life to! )
I bought mine on eBay with no box cost me around 100$ shippe to Canada ( almost 2 yrs ago), dont forget to get the HD one , not the regular one , it really is worth every penny .
I have the rocketfish....
but it all depends on what your going to use it for.
for everyday stuff the motorola is nice. very good quality from what i heard.
but if you are going to be working out and have sweat and rain than i suggest the rocketfish. it doesnt say its waterproof but it takes a better beating than the motorola.
but on the jabra im not sure.
the rocketfish isnt superior in sound but its good and when talking the person on the other side cant seem to tell that its a headset. ^^
hope that helps

Hey thanks guys....that helps a lot. To be honest I am looking for a headphone with excellent audio quality in budget..and mostly I will be using it while traveling only. Also I dont mind the mic call quality..actually I was thinking of some good wired phones like bose without mic but then I realized that third party phones dont always work good with excellent custom ROMs that are out here..and I just noticed that motorola's headphones comes with BT adapter for iPod which is good addition! but all I really care about is audio quality..so I guess moto is good right ??? or any other good options out there.. as it is I will be buying around thanksgiving so right now exploring the options and once decided I will hunt for deals
I bought the S9 (not HD) from Moto last year on Amazon for $29 - sound great for the price. I use them when working out, but otherwise i liked the wired earbuds.
I have the Rocketfish and i love them! Previously i had the Motorola s9-HD and they hurt my ears because they went in the ear. The Rocketfish rest against the ear like the old school sony headphones that wrapped around the head.
I recommend the Sony Ericsson Mw600.
Most flexible BT headset as you can plug in your own headphones. Alsp has a FM radio to boot.
Definitely worth the investment
Hi waghoba - Did you end up with the Jabra BT-650? I was looking at them after you had made your inquirey on that discount site. I started seeing what kind of reviews I could find. By the time I got around to deciding I'd give them a try they were sold out.

Same here. When I decided to buy them, they were sold out. Now I am looking for new deals on some good headphones. Although I was looking for Bluetooth headsets, many people suggested me to buy wired ones for good audio quality.

Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headset?

Hey everyone, I was hoping to get some input from the community on this one as I have been searching all over trying to figure out what the best bluetooth headset with a small form factor is for noise cancellation and overall quality.
I don't want it to be gaudy, I like the subtle headsets that don't extend half way down your face. I work in a very loud environment (auto shop) so I need something that will drown out the ambient noise pretty well.
I don't want to go out and spend hundreds of dollars on different headsets trying to find one that works well. Hopefully some people here can enlighten me on what works and what doesn't based on experience.
TIA!
Why don't you try the new motorola S10-HD ($80 at best buy) , this is the upgrade of the S9-HD. it has only 1 noise cancelling microphone. Compared to the Nokia BH-905 which has 7 noise cancelling microphones, but it cost $249 at amazon.
I have the S9-HD , sonic quality is very good. I haven't tried yet the S10-HD even though it has only 1 noise cancelling mic, I think the sound will be a little bit better than the S9.
I personally use the Motorola H17. Not a fan of Motorola phones but they make excellent Bluetooth headsets. They sell for 100 bucks at your local Tmo store BUT you can always save some money with our good friend the internet.
Newegg sells them for 53 bucks brand new
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...268&cm_re=motorola_h17-_-75-982-268-_-Product
Or you can get it for only 25 bucks if you don't care about the fancy packaging
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...280&cm_re=motorola_h17-_-75-982-280-_-Product
I've used this while driving and windows slightly down and my gf was still able to hear me fine. Also, I never turn this over 60% volume because it is super loud as well. Would definitely recommend it.
try the Sound ID 400, i had it for a while, it's pretty good and you can get it for around $50
i have a blueant q1, noise canceling is good enough that my i could talk to my wife with the top off and doing 60.... couldnt find any others that would do that.

Some of the comment said it is easily break ( about the plastic thing over the ear?), and I can't figure out how the flip works

I agree. Value wise, the Sound ID's are a great bang for your buck. I've had Motorola, Jabra, and BlueAnt that cost double, but were not much better quality.
For overall sound, the BlueAnt was best, but durability was bad. I left it in my car and the rubber over the earpiece pretty much disintegrated within 6 months.
Jawbone ICON! You will never use another.
Hi there, I just purchased the Blueant Q2 from ebay for $40.00 and it is the best bluetooth I have ever had. I am constantly driving for my job and while on the road, even with the window down doing 75 I can hear every word the other person is saying perfectly and they can hear me clearly with no other noises ever. SIMPLY THE BEST EVER!!!!
I would say the best option for your money is the official PS3 headset. It works with cellphones, and has a noise-canceling microphone. It also comes with a dock which if connected to your PC or PS3, will turn your headset into a desktop mic. Ive seen it as low as $25, but you may be able to find it for cheaper, especially since a new model was recently released.
I use the motorola rokr its a dual speaker headset with great sound and very weather resistant I'm outside everyday all day with it at work, charges in about 15 min and last about 8 hours

I read a lot of positive comments in xda or amazon review,
after getting one new from ebay,
I am totally disappointed.
The sound is so choppy and is even worse than the Samsung WEP490 which is only $10 bucks when I got my vibrant.
I followed the procedure and the sensor is physically touching my face,
I even tried putting it on both ears!
I dont know if it is only my device is defective but the first impression is so bad..

Well the original Jawbone was $120 or $130 when first released. Can't complain if it really works. The Jawbone was and still is the best bluetooth released to date IMO. Well worth every penny. I purchased 3 of them. Only downside was the design wasn't the best fitting but the sound was perfect.

Jawbone not necessarily the best anymore either...
agreed; that honor now goes to plantronics voyage pro plus...simply 5 ****
in every area, except style...
best sound, best comfort, best multipoint/a2dp, "stereo" sound through a single earpiece, longest battery life, and everything else.
I think after owning at least 25 bt headsets, I can say with confidence that this is the winner!
and, if you look carefully, you can grab it for 69 bucks or so!
Voyager pro plus, nice headset but hurts my ear and royally sucks with glasses.... I hear they are releasing the same thing in a bud style. M1100 or something.

I was talking about the first Jawbone. I didn't care for the Jawbone 2. I do own & like the Icon but the first model is still tops in my book. Still have 2 of those laying around, just got tired of ordering ear loops for them. They break too easily plus they get very uncomfortable. The design wasn't all that great but it gave me the best sound of any Bluetooth I've used to date.

yeah, I could see that some glass frames would be a bit of a problem..
I saw the earbud model as well; I think its on CNET or somewhere like that...
does it hurt your ear because of your glasses, or for some other reason?
I can wear this thing for 8 hours with no discomfort what so ever, and I hate things in my ears..

The glasses, yes, caused too many issues plus, I guess I have odd ears because the rubber loop and bulk behind my ear caused too much pressure and annoyance. (and pulled my ear out like dumbo)
I have to have custom ear molds done for headsets and can only use my right ear.
Side note....
If you've never done a custom ear mold, you haven't really experienced perfection! Even with your pro plus. My audiologist does mine usually but I've ordered from http://www.averysound.com before too.
yeah, I have heard that the custom ear molds are the way to go..expensive, but great if you need them..
I have the bose, it's my 2nd favorite. 1st place goes to the new Motorola oasis. Still looking for the perfect BT. Both the bose and Oasis sound good to people on the other end. THe bose sounds better than the motorola oasis on my end. The Oasis is just so comfortable, the best feeling BT yet. I've tried 30+ different models and those 2 are the best. I'll try that plantronics pro next. A friend of mine who has used BT for years as well, says the Sound ID is his favorite. Anybody else tried them? The bose should have a2dp for $150 but it doesnt, that sucks.
sound ID is overpriced and worthless; no mac support, and only firmware up dateable on 32 bit windows machines..plus, only average sound quality, just overpriced, and targeted to iphone users...

My biggest complaint with bluetooth headsets is the sound. None of them are loud enough. Someone needs to make a weather proof, loud headset for construction workers.

I have a few BT's as far as sound quality goes the Bose works the best IMHO, it is comfortable for me, now is it worth 150 ... Thats up to you. I concure the lack of a2dp is a huge bummer. Try it out for 14 days, Best Buy will let you return it, at least they always let me.
I have the Bose Bluetooth. It works well with my Samsung Captivate (Android 2.2), but it will not play music via Music Player. Can't seem to get it to pair to the music player.
And I've discovered why, on the Bose site itself:Can I listen to music on my mobile phone with the Bose Bluetooth headset?
No. The Bose Bluetooth headset was designed as a communications device. It was not designed to receive stereo music from a phone or PC.​

Look into the Plantronics Backbeat 903 or 906. A few months ago, Newegg had these OEM for $30! They've been working great and they teamed up with altec lansing for the actual headphones. They have not had any problems so far with the buttons, which is a common problem with other brands.

I have these...you just need the 903. I found they have a problem outdoors, especially in snow where they basically can't keep up with you while walking or atleast thats what it seems, it cuts out at times. Don't know what to do to fix it I think it might just be par for the course.

I was in upstate ny actually, just outside of Syracuse. Its basically just an intermittent signal drop I used them last night just laying in bed and there was no problems at all the sound is great on them.
I was looking around the internet trying to diagnose the issue and saw something about water having the same frequency as bluetooth. No idea if that's true but who knows.

My vote for the Sony Erricson MW600. Really liking these so far with my Captivate. I can use any headphones with it and the BT unit (with mic for phone conversations and FM radio) is about the size of a AA battery.
Good luck,

Though the samsungs do look ,more comfy.
Note to those having issues in the snow. Bluetooth range seems to be affected by temperature.

Have them awhile even before I have my captivate, great solid product with high sound quality and has 4 selectable sound options battery also last long. bought from ebay for 25 bucks. only downside is not ideal for people with huge head. so far it fits my head perfectly so not a problem with mine but for others beware it is not adjustable.

Using these as well. They are great. I listen all day at work and use them at the gym as well. They are a little uncomfortable initially, but you get used to them. Excellent battery life also.
all i can say is that particular style i have found to be rather uncomfortable. but then, i'm pretty sure they weren't designed for a 2x head.
I use the BB HS 655+ Bluetooth headset with my Cappy and I have no issues. I have Voodoo sound installed that seems to amplify the output of the headset. Running Cog 4.3.2 on Cappy OCed to 1400
I use my old Apple BB and works great with cappy
I just got the arctic sound P311, there ok for the average user but i like bass and the bass is incredibly messy the sound quality just isnt good enough for me(in comparisson to my £12 wired headphones) its just nowhere near
Think ill put them back on ebay and save for the jaybirds see if there better.
Definitely not for big heads. They initially hurt right above my ear where the loop rest on the side of the head. After wearing it for a while, got used to it and they do loosen up somewhat for a more comfortable fit. Actually had someone stop me in sams last week asking about the headset. He had just bough the rockr*10 (to lazy to look up model) He thought this set looked cool. I like them for the fact that they do not stick in my ears. I do not see them as a cool looking headset. actually ugly. But for the price, surprisingly good sound, battery life and over the ear, they are hard to beat.
Actualy after giving the arctic sounds a full charge, they suddenly sound miles better - must of been as they were low on battery the bass was dying
Quite impressed now. Not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, cheap plastics etc but sound is more important so quite impressed now.

I have them and they are the best headphones I've ever had. They are so comfortable and stick it in your ear so well. The sound quality is very good as well. I will put it this way, when mine decide to go out on me I will buy another pair!

thank you for your answer, i like their design and heard that quality is really good.
I wasnt sure about them because i have always had a real in ear headphone. My brother got them for xmas and i snuffed at them. I tried them on and gave them a listen. I went out an hour later on xmas and bought them.

btw after listening with them for a long time, you dont feel any pains in your ears?
p.s. atm cant give "thanks" 8 limit suxs
I am involved in competitive cycling and use these for my ride also. Even after a 6 or 7 hour bike ride I can't even tell that I have had earphones in my ear. Just be sure to try the different size gel pieces. I believe they come with size medium on them so when I first tried them it wasn't a great fit. I put on the large and it fit like it was made for my ear.

I've tried headphones a fifth of the price that have 90% of the sound quality so I wouldn't burn my money on having a designer label, and anyway the S3 sound quality really isn't that good compared to even some other phones I tried.
The sound quality of yhe earphonea are great. I dont think anyone is expecting a studio surround sound out of the phone. Its bot just about the sound quality. Its so nice to have an in ear earphone that you dont have to worry abiut falking out or being pulled out of the ear. Its worth it if you can.

Shure makes headphones with replaceable cords. Mine take a beating since I wear them at least twice a day on my motorcycle under my helmet and they are still performing great.

Klipsch S4 are really nice sounding phones and relatively inexpensive.

Klipsch makes possibly the best in ear headphones out there...
They dont stay in the ear like bose earphones though. sound quality may be better, but I from experience can tell you that the bose is more comfortable, stays in the ear until you dont want them to be there anymore and the cables are damn near tangle proof.
Have a look at this comparison thread. It's the most comprehensive unbiased test I've found on the Internet
At $100 the Shure SE215 scored as well or better than many sets that cost 3x more.
If you are going to invest in a quality set, make sure they have replaceable cables since that is the most likely point of failure over time.
I've got a set of the Gen1 in-ear that I've had for years and love them. I recently added a set of the Gen2 inserts (you can swap them out on the holder style) and they are even better! They stay put when running/riding/lifting and you don't even realize you have them in. Definitely worth it.
Bose is not as good as everyone thinks they are. Who told you that Bose makes quality products? Heard it from a family member? A post on the Internet? Just google Bose quality or similar topics. My $5 pair of in-ear phones from Big Lots sound and feel good.

huh??
Bose are good but nowhere near as good as the price you paying for them, because Bose is like a designer label and a lot of people pay more because of who they are not what they do.
You are intitled to your opinion, but I highly disagree. I have had several pair of $20-$40 earbuds. Several because they were only good for a minimal time frame. made a step up to $60-$100 sets and there was a considerable difference in quality. 3 pair of $100 sets and lastly bought my bose IE2 and they are by FAR the best set I have had, sound quality and comfort.
but like i said, you are totally entitled to think what you want. each person has different experiences when comparing products.
Cheers
