Forums - General - Suggest Me: Dolla wants a Bluetooth headset

Dolla Dolla on 17 December 2007

So, I am in the market for a bluetooth headset for my iPhone.

For some back story, I've only ever used one type of bluetooth headset before:

The Motorola one that flips open (I believe the model number is HS850). I was ok with this headset being my first foray into this wireless technology, but now I would like something different.

I want something that has a louder volume than this one. I had to constantly press it against my head even after turning it up to the max setting. I also want something that can operate at least 15-20 feet (5-7 meters approximately). Also, I would like something that perhaps hooks around the ear so that it sits comfortably. Not too heavy.

Anyone have some suggestions? Price is of no consequence, atm. I just want the best of the best.

Er, im not an expert as Ive only bought one but it seems to work pretty good for me. plantronics explorer 320, hooks round the ear, good sound, but more of a budget model I feel (£30). If you want the best I suggest looking for something a bit more luxury.

Hmm ... Jawbone seems interesting and, at least, affordable lol thanks for the suggestion, WoW. I'll have to skip the Ultrasone Edition 9 ......

I'll look into the plantronics, Bladeneo. Thanks
