I like to use bluetooth headsets to talk to the phone. With all my previous phones (samsung,lg,zte,huawei) I have always used Nokia bluetooth headsets. With this phone people don't hear me good with my Nokia headsets. So can anyone suggest me a headset that works perfectly with the One?
Plantronics Voyager Legend. I've had many BT headsets, and this one is the best by far. I can stand 2 feet away from a running diesel engine, and the person on the other end asks me why I'm shouting. The noise cancellation is just unbelievable with this thing.

That site doesn't help. I know where to buy bluetooth headsets and I know that generally all are compatible with the phone. What I would like to know is from users that use bluetooth headsets if they have to suggest a specific bluetooth headset that they use and know that it doesn't make noise to them or to the others that they talk with.
take this with a grain of salt as I don't use the phone feature that much.
my old LG hbs-700 worked very well, great sound and good phone reception as well, I received or placed phones while in gym, biking, etc.
I know there is a newer version featuring apt-x as well, you might wanna search for reviews on this.
since then I moved to on-ear headsets, I really like this telme2 headset I bought a couple of months earlier, good sound again, very rich, apt-x, no lag streaming audio from tv; I have also used mostly to receive calls, no complaints here, the phone reception is OK on both ends.
I also own the sennheiser mm 400-X, I have used very little for calls, but seems to do the job OK. however this latter device it's much more expensive, imo too expensive to justify its features..

I have to carry two phones for work and personal use. I'd like to listen to mp3sc or streaming audio from the internet from my personal phone while working but still be able to take work calls. Taking personal calls would be a very nice addition also.
Is there a headset that can do this? What about a single ear unit?
Personal phone... TMo Wing (Herald)
Work phone... Nokia 6103
Moto H9's
these to me are the best I've ever ever heard......their about 100.00 bucks but well worth it!!!!
MY 2 Cents Peace, mike
You can look at jabra BT 8010. It works as single ear unit or double as stereo with included spk.

Many headsets can pair with 2 or more devices.
I have the Sony-Ericsson HBH-DS970 and I really like it - great sound - minimal weight and appearance - you can tuck one earpiece into your shirtpocket for work use if you need to leave one ear free - nice LED controller for music - see this review, their only complaint was lack of a clip - I just pulled one off a headset I didn't like much, attached to this, and I'm good to go. I think the DS980 is the current version.
I like the Plantronics 855. You can use them single or dual. More discreet and light weight than the Jabra 8010, I have those too.
Also can pair with more than one phone or mp3 player and they pause for phone calls. A2DP.

Moto H9 aren't stereo are they?
Motorola H820s
..better battery life than the S9s, pair with up to 8 devices. i love mine, listening to them now in the office. they also handle handoff really nicely - other headsets i've had have been a pain when they go out and back in range...
What would be a good Bluetooth headset that has noise cancellation while on calls and could allow listening to mp3s or Pandora?

Jawbone Icon, but I hear the battery life isn't quit that good. That's the only thing that's prevented me from getting it. Maybe someone else can confirm or recommend something better.

I have a convertible and have always used a bluetooth headset in my car. I have tried almost every dual mic mono bluetooth and the best overall brand is Plantronics. The Voyager has the highest ratings, but is so big and uncomfortable. The 975 is very good, but pricey. The first Jawbones were not great, but the newest Icon is a great headset. However, for the money, the headset I have found to be the most feature rich and best sounding is the Motorola 790. These are all mono sets.
Jawbones are great headsets. Nice audio quality, but not the best volume.
Blueants are another great set, I have used them for a while now.
If you want a stereo, jaybirds are awesome. Hands down.

I agree, and the blueant also has an app from the market that allows custimizations for the headset, if i was honestly gonna invest more money into a bt headset thats the direction i would go
Just fyi;
the blueant Q1 (the one I have) the app doesn't work for Froyo.
and,
the Blueant Q2 (the one I want to get) doesn't have an app yet. However, the Q2 is still pretty new, so I'm sure the app is en route.
Supposedly the Q2 has some kickass sound. Can't wait, personally
Had the original jawbone for years now and it was a ga=ood headset but uncomfortable fit. Got the blueant z9i but the noise cancellation wasn't as good as the jawbone. Just picked up the jawbone icon and the noise cancellation is unparalleled. People can't even tell I'm in my car with the windows halfway down. Plus it has a much smaller and more comfortable fit than the original. Oh yeah, it handles a2dp also! Definitely the way to go. Only complaint, volume could be louder.
Ya know, that's the problem with so many of these headsets. They just don't have the volume for real world applications.
It's like they only think people use them in a car or in the office. That's why I took back my Jawbone. Great set, but I couldn't hear squat.
Oh yeah, the Blueant Q1 and Q2 support A2DP...
I have the BluAnt Q2 and it works pretty good for playing music and everything else.

I second that motion, jawbone is the way to go. Battery life is approximately 4 hours more or less(constant streaming). It does support Ad2p and extreamly well. Everybody's talking about the audio not loud enough but if you have a rooted phone you can find dsp manager, (I know cayogen offers it in his roms) and you can find the standalone apk and adjust the volume till its too loud.

Well I have given up on wireless headsets and am looking for a quality wired headset for my HTC One.
I make quite a few calls and occasionally listen to music.
I am tossing up between a more mp3 audio headset such as the Klipsch Image S4 and the more call orientated Plantronics MX500.
Can anyone recommend a good quality headset with inbuilt microphone?

Out of those two, Id definitely go Klipsch. Ive always liked their products. I do use a Plantronics bluetooth for calls, but ive not used any of their products that Id rave about for music quality (Ive not used the MX500 though).

My gut says similar. The wireless headsets I have used are Plantronics Legend so have some exposure.
I listen to music probably 5-10% of the time though so the ability to play music is secondary.
My impression is that the wired call centre headsets have not been updated in a long time and are outdated.

Oh, i didnt even notice that you had said calls were the primary use. lol The Bluetooth i use is the Voyager Legend as well. I really like it a lot for calls, but it's definitely not for audiophiles

My experiences with the legend were less than pleasant.
I was getting the problem of chronic interference when talking on a cell phone but reasonably clear talking on skype. I could never get to the bottom of it. I am using the headset that came with the phone but looking for something that is a step up in quality.
Anyone got an additional take on this or should I consider giving bluetooth another try?

Look at JLabs
http://www.jlabaudio.com
Usually they have sales and anything with an "m" after the name (example: J4m, J.Fi.m) are "mobile phone" headsets that have the mic and button integrated into the right cable. Right now I am using a J4m (that I got for 5 bucks in a grab bag), it is incredibly rugged.
Have been using Jlabs earbuds for years and they are some of the best sound (until you get into the 100-200 dollar range) I have heard out of an earbud. Also just bought the crasher bluetooth speakers.

So I made the mistake of getting another Voyager Legend.
Tried all of the following and had no success.
Ordering a JLabAudio tomorrow
1.) Wifi on and off
2.) Disabling wireless from the router itself
3.) Scanning wifi connections using inSSIDer
4.) Switching handsets to my wife's Samsung
5.) Using another Plantronics Legend
6.) Re paring device several times
Hello,
I have a question regarding headset with a mic for GNex.
What is the best? what is most compatible with GNex, play/stop button, answerring/rejecting calls etc. And quite loud and clear sound quality during calls.
Any recomendations?

I like the Creative EP-650 In-Ear Earphones (there is a hands free model can't remember the model number) had them for more than 5 years still have their bass the best buy so far only thing is cable jingles a little and due to they Y shape it transmits the noise to your years, you need to wear them under your shirt to stop the noise transfer.
Nexus 4 Wired Headset https://play.google.com/store/devic...dset_with_Microphone?id=nexus_4_headset&hl=en
LG Tone HBS700
Bluetooth, all the buttons, great sound.
Recommended the product of aromic floyd.
maybe samsungs stock headset in the box is the best one as the speakers sound...
but i think beats one is the best for microphone...
I had tried a bunch and have been continuously dissapointed with the sound quality on BT headsets. I finally went out and splurged on the Plantronics Voyager Legend and I must say people couldn't even tell I was talking from a BT. Unfortunately mine had a bug and wasn't loud enough on my end and I need to send it back to be replaced but I do think that for good sound quality it is worth the high price tag especially if you are using your phone for business (which is why I needed it). I think some models of similar items to the voyager legend from a year or two ago have already gone down in price so that can help to cut costs.
The plantronics units mentioned above I believe are for use in the building when you are hooking your phone up to them. The units I am referring to are cellphone BT headset
I am using a Jabra Wave headset which is quite convenient and really cheap (14€)
For a bluetooth headset, I am using an LG HBS-730. Sounds great with music. Would sound better if the GNex came with the Apt-x codec, but I have no complaints about the sound. Call functions are compatible with the buttons on the headset. Highly recommended. Can get a refurb model on Ebay for around $40 shipped.

Yep, I have the LG Tone+ bluetooth earbuds and they work very well.
I assume you're enquiring about the play/pause/forward/back buttons on the headphones and whether they work with the Play Music program? If so, then yes, they work flawlessly for me at least.

I bought them in the apple store $129.00
Not earbuds, but have been using the Sony DR-BTN200 bluetooth on ear headphones and they work great! It is NFC compatible as well, so it complements marvelously with my Nexus 5.
not earbuds but I use this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Avantree-Saturn-Bluetooth-Transmitter-corporated/dp/B0085HOM4K
With my very old but awesome sounding denon 751's. It makes any ear/headphones bt compatible and in my experience it works great at close range either in the car or while commuting. Battery lasts me about 5 to 6 hours use over 4 days.
Sound quality has not been hit at all my denons sound the same as when plugged in directly to the nexus 5.

i really like them for working out or running. they stay in place. the only con i have about them is that if you wear them with the cord behind your neck sometimes they can get caught when turning your head certain ways. to avoid that now i just wear them with the cord to the front. doesnt look as cool lol but cant feel anything but the buds in your ears. the sound quality is decent. one big thing i loved about these tho is that when you're wearing them it doesnt feel like you're covering your ears with your hands and can hear everything like footsteps or anything rubbing up against you. i originaly bought some jaybirds and they did exactly that, it was just too annoying for the price i had paid. i could hear my footsteps in my head and the cord rubbing up against my neck, you had to put the music too loud to try and cover the noises but you could always hear it
Great, thanks for all the replies guys.
I got myself a Plantronics BackBeat GO 2 Bluetooth Earbuds and they worked amaizingly with all the buttoms features it has, they are like 8 diferent combos for calls and etc.
