Motorola H700 headset-good deal [Posted on 2008-08-29] Although I bought this bluetooth headset for a trip to CA, since there's currently no laws requiring hands-free devices for cell phones in my resident state, I haven't had much time to really use it. But the little that I did, I found it very easy to install to my cell phone and use to talk with. Never did make calls with it, but that wasn't my intended use. Had very good voice quality and no static or reception problems. Would recommend to anyone looking for a reasonably priced bluetooth headset.Motorola Bluetooth Headset H700
A Good Deal [Posted on 2008-09-16] I've used a wired headset from Plantronics with various cell phones over the years. Have tried blue tooth headsets before, but the sound quality (particularly for those on the other end) was inconsistent. This headset works very well. Easy to use, and while there's a bit more background noise than the wired headset, not getting tangled up with the cord while moving around is a real plus. Also, with the boom folded up it fits nicely in a pocket so I don't have to wear it around like some cyborg.
What's the point? [Posted on 2008-09-19] In the market for a bluetooth headset, I found the sheer number of choices a little daunting, but after doing several days of research (reading reviews wherever I could find them), I settled on this unit. It had the features that I was looking for and I was able to pick it up for around $25. I liked the idea of the boom that could be folded to turn it off and opened to turn it on, thus avoiding having it accidentally turn on in a pocket or bag. The reviews seemed to be, generally, positive, and my girlfriend has one (it is a different color, I think it may actually be the H710) and she likes hers very much. So, I dropped the dough and was rather excited when it showed up.
That excitement lasted up until I made the 1st call on it. The reception on it is no better than a cheap no-name Chinese P.O.S. I bought a few years ago through eBay for $6. While I have had no trouble with the other party hearing me on it, the static I have had to put up with on my end is staggering. I have no idea why Motorola would even put their name on this unequivocal piece of garbage. I have to hold my phone (a Samsung SCH-U740) right up to the headset in order to eradicate the static and even that doesn't get rid of all of it. I can't use it with my phone in my pocket or even on the other side of my head! If I turn my head away from the phone...static. If I raise my hand to scratch my nose and it comes in between the phone and the headset... static. If I put my phone down on the couch right next to me, on the same side of my body as the headset...static.
I thought that, maybe, it might be the bluetooth signal transmitter in my phone that was to blame, but after doing a number of hours of research on that, I could find not one mention of that being a problem. Which, of course, forces me to conclude that the headset I bought is crap. I don't know why so many others have given such glowing praise to this thing. Who knows, maybe I got a bad unit. The fact remains, I will not be buying another Motorola product. I mean, if I have to hold my phone up to my head anyway, what's the point of having a wireless headset?
False Advertising - Do Not Buy From WIreless Emporium [Posted on 2008-09-23] The ONLY reason I selected this vendor was because it specifically states 'Motorola Packaging' in the description. The packaging is a generic plastic case with the merchandise shoved in UPSIDE DOWN for display and the earpiece itself in a ziplock bag inside the casing. As I said, the only reason I purchased from this vendor is because I wanted to make sure it had a brand name look - the real packaging from Motorola, etc. because this was to be a gift in a few days for our son. Now I'm faced with having to go somewhere and purchase a nice looking gift and demanding a refund. As I said, save yourself the headache and DO NOT purchase from this vendor, do not be fooled by the "Motorola Packaging" - there's nothing on it that says Motorola - all it states is Universal Bluetooth Headset - and that it's compatible with Motorola.
Did not meet expectations [Posted on 2008-09-23] Although Consumer Reports gave it a great review, mine has so much static that I can hardly understand people talking. Maybe I just got a lemon, but I quit using it.
