Ear Bluetooth Views
I have had many bluetooth headsets including the much hyped Jawbone which I literally threw in the trash. Previously had the Motorola HX-1 which was dynamite but not comfortable for more than a couple hours. The quality of the Bose headset is excellent and the comfort is amazing. Some reviews comment on problems keeping the earpiece in. Without an external hook it is important to keep the earpiece clean. I use optical wipes from CVS or Walgreens to ensure the earpiece is free of oil/wax...also just good hygiene. I love the simplicity of this product as I simply need a Bluetooth device to make and take calls with great clarity. Bose delivers. I wasn't surprised. hellip;More
I have one and you can listen to music through the bluetooth, but it isn't in stereo. I'd much prefer to have wireless bluetooth headphones and not just a single ear one. Now the sound on a phone call is VERY good and you really feel like you are in the conversation. The sound quality is awesome. Highly recommended. rhellip;More
Creating a good Bluetooth headset is surprisingly difficult. Regular wired headsets are very easy to design - with styles ranging from an absolutely minimal earbud speaker and shirtclip/microphone, up to a major dual earcup, over the head, set of headphones and angle-boom microphone. Light weight versions are so light that having them securely mounted to/on your ear is no problem, and heavy duty headsets include secure mounting as part of their structure.
There seem to be two main styles of Bluetooth headsets. Some are held in place by a loop around the ear - there are generally more comfortable, but may be less secure. Others are held in place by being physically jammed into your ear. These are generally less comfortable (!) but may sometimes be more secure.
