Hey all, I'm in the market for a new bluetooth headset and I was hoping to get some input/suggestions from people. I have a jawbone icon, and I was looking at the blueant Q2. Thanks all.
I have tried many different headsets and the Q2 is absolutely my favorite one although they now have come out with the Q3 which I'm sure is even better. I just got an email from blueant to get the Q3 for $69.99 with a code. If you want it leave me your email and I'll forward it to you to use.

Thanks for the input, and for the discount code. I sent you a PM with my email
.
I read up on the q3, I think that's the one I'm going to buy.
Ive got the moto sliver elite, and love it. No one complains about anything when im on it. Its very discreet, and light. The case doubles as a portable charger that holds 2 full charges. The ear piece looks more like a hearing aid than a Bluetooth headset. And pairing couldnt be any easier as it uses NFC to pair. And with the my moto speak app it will read you your text if you want, incoming callers, and you can change the noise cancellation settings. I would rate it a 10 out of 10.

I looked at that one too. That's why I came here for reviews, there are a lot of good/bad reviews for the moto on amazon. I don't know those people, and I trust input from people here (even though I don't really know people here either, haha)
Well pick up the moto from a bestbuy near you and give it a test run, and if you dont like it keep your receipt and return it.

Huge +1 for the Q3, if the 2 is anything to go by. It was a wonderful piece of kit and I can't recommend it enough! I tried a few other models (my friend worked in a store that sold such devices, very handy!) and none seemed quite as polished, or there was always something not quite right about them.
You mean the Q3?

lol, sorry about that, typo. I have got S3s on the mind I guess Seriously, the Q2 was great, it sat in my ear perfectly and had great battery and sound. Wonderful device, I really miss mine but I just had to sell it (poor)
Yeah I think I'll order the Q3, they're out of stock at the moment though. I can pre order it so it ships in the beginning of March. Thanks!
Well, it's ordered. Thanks again SoCalScorpio, I used the code you gave me, total with shipping was $76. A little pricey, hopefully it's worth it. I'll come back after I test it out and leave a review. Thanks for everyone's input.
Wow, my q3 finally shipped today. I'll let you guys know how it works after I test it out a little.
LG Tone+
Battery life is amazing.
I just picked up the plantronics voyager legend and I must say it is awesome! Judging by the options you mentioned you might not like the form factor and that's same way I felt but after using it for a day I love it.
I also picked up a Plantronics Legend, very happy with the fit, sound is great, I often forget it's there.
Now only if I could get more functionality from the bluetooth!
Chip
I've never had very good luck with either of the plantronics headsets I have owned. My blueant q3 should be here in a few days though. I'm definitely excited to try it out.
Alright, I've had the q3 for a couple days now. Very comfortable, good volume, good noise cancellation. It's a very good headset. I would definitely recommend it.

As much as I enjoy the stock heaphones shipped with my Vibrant, I want something a little better. Looking for some good inexpensive ($80 or less) headphones with a microphone.
If you all have any good reviews, testimonials or just suggestions for good headsets, please post here. I would really appreciate it and I'm sure plenty of people would want to know too.

Go bluetooth. I'll gladly recommend my Sony MW600. It's just a little receiver that you can plug your own headphones into. It has a mic, FM radio, and can pair up to three devices. I pretty much use it for anything, including listening to music on my computer. The sound is very good (almost indistinguishable from the 3.5mm jack), and it has volume and track controls which work with pretty much any player.
It's also super light and can go 8 hours of audio, prob a little less for voice comms; standby time is in days. In terms of power draw on the phone, I've noticed that leaving BT on drains about 2% total... which probably saves me power since I don't have to turn on the screen as much.
I got mine for about $50 on Amazon. It comes with its own earphones, but I opted to get a nicer pair (Audio Technica, ckm50a) with short cables. Total cost was under $90.
If you must go the wired route, I would suggest the Ultimate Ears Superfi 5vi. You can go more expensive, but this is probably the cheapest wired headset approaching audiophile quality.
you can get skullcandy headphones with the mic at T-Mobile.
I would say try the Skull Candy 50/50's. I have heard good things about them and thats what ill be purchasing soon. U can get them from radioshack or the direct website for more color choices.

Do the volume control's on the 50/50 work on the Vibrant?
Are there any wired headsets with controls other than the one button (hang-up, start/stop) that work well with the vibrant?

Sorry, can't post links, you'll have to Google the product codes.
If your a big gym nut and do a lot of cardio, sports. The Freedom JF3's are remarkable! I've been waiting for these since CES and bought them yesterday. No more snagging your cord and knocking down your precious.
Thought I would share my success with everyone here. Highly recommended!!!
A bit pricey at $99.00, but it's worth every penny.

i agree walking around talking on your bluetooth at the mall makes you look like a jackass but these are headphones and their main use is music not phone calls.
they look pretty nice thanks for the review.

I will have to give these a look. Any idea if they are sweatproof? That's my biggest problem with headphones and working out. I sweat a lot and they eventually short out. I didn't see anything obvious on the product page regarding this feature. I sent a product inquiry asking the company and will report back if anyone's interested.

Very much sweatproof, that's the idea behind these headphones. Lifetime warranty against sweat and malfunction.
oh i am really feeling these. i cant wear my huge Beats by Dr Dre everywhere so i might give this a go for when i hit the gym
Just picked up a pair from BestBuy since they have an exclusive on the things I was forced to pay the full retail of $99.99. I'm charging them up now but I'll be back with a full report back on how they do. I currently have a pair of Motorola S9-HD, I did have the S10-HD but they sounded worse then the S9 so I returned them.
So check back and I'll have that report after I return from the gym in about 2 hours.
Edit:
It took me a few minutes to set them up, pair with my Thunderbolt and find the correct earbud sleeve as well as adjust the cable that links them around my neck but they fit well and were easy to pair.
The Good:
They sound amazing... maybe not on par with a great set of plug in headphones like say the Beatz by Dre but head and shoulders above my Moto S9-HD that I use currently. They fit great even though I didn't really spend alot of time finding the perfect combo for my ears. They also felt comfortable as well, they give you 3 or the standard sleeves you get on the S9's and 3 additional sleeves they call GeckoGrip for a total of 6 sleeves. 2 small, 2 medium and 2 large. I only had them slip out maybe twice during my entire workout with stretching, running and weights all in my workout and I think that with a little fine tuning they won't slip at all. Volume is also very loud with a tiny bit of clipping at the highest volume but still well louder than I would ever need before the clipping occurs. The battery seems stout as I made it through an entire 2 hours plus between drive time, stretching/warmup, workout and I even tanned (yes I know.... I'm a guy and I tan. I suffer from S.A.D. and my dr suggested trying it rather than medication and it works for me) and that's with only maybe a half full battery.
The Bad:
Even though they are fairly easy to use I really don't like the multi use buttons all that much. The volume up/down combo for a track back/forward button depending on how they are pressed. That in itself isn't bad but they are fairly small which does make them a bit tricky to short press or long press while running. After a little more use I'm sure I'll have no issues with getting used to them but larger buttons would be a nice addition as there is plenty of room for it. For some the price might be an issue at $99.99 and only available through 1 source at present.
Conclusion:
I think that I'll be selling my S9's and these will be my new BT stereo workout headphones as they are by far the best that I have personally used. Small and light without feeling cheap. Clean, clear sound with great bass response and plenty of volume to drown out the noisiest of gyms. Easy to use with enough choices in sleeves to make a comfortable, secure fit for anyone.
Just picked up a pair of these Moto Rokr S9 HDs from buy.com $42.58 was my total shipped, but it varies slightly from seller to seller. http://www.buy.com/prod/motorola-mo...etooth-headset-new-oem-in-bulk/211822460.html
Received them today, and I must say that I'm impressed, especially for the price. Been wanting a pair for a while. Researched them for a while before deciding on these.(had heard bad things about the S10s) They pair easily with the Epic and sound great. The hands free activates Vlingo. I rarely use that. Got them mostly for streaming music They fit snug on my average size head and are really lightweight.
Be careful
I had the same ones until they were stolen/lost. They are awesome. I now have the next version. So, I do recommend them. My point of concern is DO NOT BUY THESE FOR CHEAP ON EBAY.
The guys at work loved them for working on there days off or running on the treadmill. You don't have to fumble for your phone and they are great for music.
But, one guy at work got a pair for 25 bucks on ebay and they were FAKE. The hologram sticker was not the same and it had differences you could tell when you held two of them up close. They worked but the quality was far worse. So, be warned. I can personally confirm there are fakes out there. I would think buy.com is safe though.
+1 for the S9-HDs. Best bluetooth set I've ever owned. My cat destroyed mine and I replaced them with the S10s but they suck in comparison. not nearly the same sound and much more bulky. If you're on the fence, get the S9s.
as a note, my opinion is based strictly on music quality. I rarely use my headset for phone calls, but they both perform perfectly when I do.
I love the motorola s10-hd. I had a pair a while back with my og epic but they did not funtcion correctly so I sold them. they function 100% with epic touch though!
Ive got 4 pair for sale if anyone is interested. Brand new, factory sealed, 100% genuine. Im asking $45 shipped
I prefer the rocketfish ones. Same price

I have seen them for $20 a while ago from a legitimate on line store but can't remember. It may have been a post on Slickdeals.
I had the S9Hds, just don't sweat with them on. Eventually the buttons will stock working. 3 months and the buttons stopped working because the sweating.
I picked up a pair of the LG HBS-700's:

Cannot recommend them enough. Great for running, great for office... The neck thing vibrates when you get a call, and the battery gets me through a day at work with no issues.

OH and the s9s hurt my head too. (medium sized head, not bulbous) So THANKS for the tip on these!
I had a pair of the previous model and they are NOT IN ANY WAY sweat-proof. A little moisture and they go haywire.
I got about 3 weeks use out of mine until the controls stopped working. Good luck and don't use them when exercising, sweat kills them fast.
i've had my S9 headset for over a year, used it with my epic and now my touch, no complaints, great sound.
Yeah, I love mine so far...
Just got back into the gym and I am wondering if anyone knowsof anything good have a Michael and controls would be nice. I would like to not spend over a $100.

lol, beyond awful
I use a pair of Panasonic RP-HSC200K as my dedicated gym buds. They're the kind that wrap around your ear so they don't fall out and can resist my gross sweat. They're flexible and can take the abuse of throwing them into my gym bag with my shoes and gear (so far). I like that style because buds like the stock one and iPod ones I have kept popping out my ear when I jog/use the elliptical and get sweaty. They cost $60 and the sound is decent in my opinion. I wasn't looking for audiophile quality considering that I knew they would be abused and soaked in sweat, lol. I didn't want to get something that I would have to worry about.
The mic integration works fine and the button to pause/skip to next song, but the volume controls don't work with my Nexus. They do on iPhone and iPods.

I hear that. I carried these headphones over from when I used to have an iPhone 4 and yeah, it kind of sucks to lose that functionality.
Apparently it's difficult overall to find a pair where both volume up and down work on the in-line controls? Doesn't seem like a lot of models that are iPhone compatible work with Android as well. I dunno. I do have a pair of Skull Candy earbuds as well with mic and volume controls. I'll have to re-test it and see if it works.

If your willing to spend the $100 I HIGHLY recommend the Jaybird Freedom. They are very good. Sweat/water resistant, comfortable, bluetooth, and sound really great especially for blue tooth.
I've had mine for about 3 weeks now and I now use them more than my cans or Bose wired headset. They have nice all around sound and nice bass and I've honestly never heard blue tooth headset sound so good.
Only two drawbacks I've seen with them are the mic is a little choppy if your talking to someone (Focus on your workout, not talking ), and your going to need to wear an armband if your outside as the signal won't have walls to bounce off and will cut in and out if your phone is in your pocket.
Check them out:

Edit: These things are easily worth the $99 price tag on Amazon. Now that I've used them and broke them in, I'd gladly pay $200 for them.
Nothing sounds better than the Bose IE2's. You'll never regret getting these.

I appreciate everyone's input.
Unfortunately at the moment I can not spend more than I guess 50 to 60 dollars on a pair. A) cause I need to replace my windshield and B) This will be probably only to listen to music while I work out I rarely ever since myself in situations where I am listening to music while I am out and about unless I am driving I would have it plugged into my stereo.
Those Jaybirds looks so legit I wish I could get them. I think I am going to have to get the skull candy one. God I wish they didn't have the ****ty logo. Looks so high schoolish. Ugh I hate that. I probably look like so punk kid that has no respect for their elders lol.
Unless anyone else has any suggestions for something under 60 or 50. Sound quality would be nice I understand you get what you pay for.

Well, the ones i have work fine (for music AND talk), but mine do look different
the reason i ask is i'm not sure which ones to get! first i want to know if i get the 80 ohm version do i need an amp to power them. or would be logical just to get the 32 ohm. i'm pretty sure i'm going to hear this(you should get atm50's) but i'm looking at the beyer's for awhile now. i would appreciate the anyone's input!
I use beyer custom one pro - not exactly the same but they're beyers, and they sound fantastic!

i thought about them for a choice also. do they get loud when you turn them up or do you need an amp? some people say they use an amp with your pro's but i guess that is what they prefer. either the dt770's or custom one pro's in white, don't know yet. i would like to hear them at a store before purchasing them you know
mine are white. so far I havent had to use an amp (there's a dedicated amp inside the HTC One already) but I dont have an amp anyway. I just liked the look of the one's and I'm not REALLY an audiophile even though I do appreciate good sound.
But check razordogaudio on ebay - I got mine from them. Authorized reseller, and they had buy it now / best offer and I got em brand new for $210

over ear. if they are in any way on-ear, you have big ears
80 ohms is not a big deal for the One, but its not ideal for other phones. You should be fine unless you are deaf.

I'm still kicking myself in the arse fror selling my beas headphones that came with the Rezound, as a guy who NEVER listens to music, only trips and stuff, It's nice to have a decent pair, but not worth the price for someone like me who doesn't use them often.
Dr. Dre makes enough money, the quality we are getting on these headphones just drop and drop, the rezound was priced normal with the headphones, maybe they took a big loss of that, idk?
but I feel we should at least get an older ear style beats headphones, even the same ones that same with the Rezound I'd be very happy.
Beats is a main selling point on HTC device, I mean sh*t they have it branded on the back of the phone perm.
least they can do is hook us up with some quality beats headphones, ill even take refurbished ones, I don't care, but the ones it came with yes, they work, but considering this phone is 6 months old, AND now just getting it, they could have done something to help us out, price drop, anything, but no,
we are paying the same price that was paid half a year ago.
I hate VZW,

I still have mine. I would sell them if anyone wants them, if you want to buy them. Only reason I would sell them is for putting money towards my new pair. I love listening to music, main reason I bought the rezound. I have the normal ibeats also, but the right side has some play to get full sound when you hear it pop. Hey let me know if you are interested, I have a paypal account. Not going to sell them outrageous either. Tell me a decent price.

I don't know what is high price to you and high price to me
I can buy the headphones just as they came in the Rezound for under $40 brand new, new everything, pouch, headphones, all the ear buds etc.
So being that they are a bit old and used, and I don't know how many if if of the rubber ear piecees are left/used, I don't want the used ones.
I would pay $10-$15.
Again no disrespect if too low a price, but that's what I feel comfortable at.

Will do! And I will put these aside, because I have the other ibeats. If you reach 20 soon, I'll take it. Now just hoping we can achieve s-off : )

I have the 250 ohm DT770 Pros and my DNA pushes them pretty well. I think you'd be just fine with the 80 ohm version.

yeah, My wife "stole" mine and keeps dropping them. Now she's complaining that they are cutting out. Can't figure out why...
Personally, I mainly use some LG BT headphones that verizon screwed up and listed for free last year.
You can't go wrong with either. I would go with the 80ohm just because you should future proof your purchase as much as you can.
And ultimately you'll still want to get an amp, however make sure you get at DAC/AMP combo or have a small usb powered DAC. The reasoning is if you don't have an external DAC all your amp is doing as amplifying an already amplified sound because the phone is already doing all of that. And as good as they sound regularly, once you go amped it'll never be the same
