Recommend Your Bluetooth Headset

[Deleted]

I am on my mobile phone a lot (particularly while on the road for work, in hotel rooms, etc) - and my stupid wired headsets aren't cutting it.  The wires always get tangled, they seem to break easily (granted, I buy the cheapest ones!)...basically I am ready to jump over and finally get a Bluetooth headset.

I've done some online research, but am curious if any MM'ers have good recommendations?  I am willing to buy one of the more expensive headsets if it is really good - but I trust you all more than I trust other internet strangers!

I wouldn't really be using it a lot while driving, mainly in hotel rooms or at airports (yes, I'm that loser taking / making phone calls in the airport lounge as quietly as I can.)

Both H and I had this one before we got bluetooth in our car. Worked well with iPhones.

Thank you aspentosh!! The Plantronics headsets seem to get reliably good feedback, as do the Jawbone ones. Appreciate the direct link.

H had a problem with one before we tried this one. It wouldn't stay connected and if his body were between the headset and the phone (ex: headset in left ear, phone in armrest cupholder) it would break in and out. I wish I remembered what brand that was.

I actually have one (maybe two?) of these just sitting around. I can send it to you if you want and you'd only have to replace the earpiece.

Oh my goodness, that would be amazing!  I will PM you - happy to pay for shipping (obviously) and what you think is fair value for them.

Nah, it's fine. They're just sitting collecting dust I think I have the manual for it, too.
