Title: Bluetooth Earpiece Recommendations Needed
Post by: seeker_two on July 24, 2011, 08:43:16 AM
Once again, I'm seeking the collective wisdom of the APS community*....

I'm looking for a Bluetooth earpiece to go with my Blackberry Torch. The kicker is....I don't plan to use it for phone calls more than 25% of the time. The majority of its use will be to listen to the MP3's on my phone. I'm looking for something rechargable with a good battery life plus an over-ear loop instead of an earbud....those never stay in for me. And, while I'm not made of money, I'd rather have a good balance of quality to price.....

Any suggestions?.......






Thanks in advance......  =D

I've never liked any of the bluetooth headsets I've had in the past until I got a Jawbone. Though it has an earbud, it also comes with an ear loop. I also used to have problems with earbuds until the Jawbone. I use mine without the loop, and it fits great (it came with 6 different buds of various sizes and configurations that you can swap out).

This is also the first bluetooth headset I've had where I've never once had a complaint about not being heard or sounding garbled. Not the cheapest headset out there, but highly recommended.

The ONLY one that works for me is the Jawbone. $100, sure, but it works just as well as holding the phone to my ear. NO ONE can tell the difference on the other end, either.

Truly, it's the best of the best. :)
