Looking for Suggested BT Headset w/o any Echo! - Motorola Q Forum

bubbatex · 02-28-2008, 10:19 PM

I currently have an old H500 headset and I am looking for something better for my new Q9c. Headsets opinions seem to be like phone company opinions - everyone has one and no one seems to like what they have! There seems to be no clear favs. I don't like the fit of the H500 (over the ear flopper), but I could live with it if it did not produce an echo for those on the other side. I can go for months not using it and then fire it up and my business partner and my wife can immdeiately tell I am on the headset.

Any suggestions?

My personal favorite is the Plantronics Voyager 510. Great fit, excellent volume, noise reduction. Worked great on my Treo 650, and works even better on my Q9h.

By far and away the 510 is the best...RB likes the 520.
The on off button of the 510 is a pain, but its clarity is unmatched.
Ebay has them for around 30.00.
Its old, but a reliable model.

I use the motorola H800, never had any problems with it, most people can't even tell I'm on a headset ( my wife thinks I'm on a headset when I'm not using it)

I use the Moto H700 and like it but it's not loud enough for my friend. I need over the ear as the buds never fit.

Looking at both the 510 and 520 as well as the Jabra BT8040. I agree that the 510 is an oldie but a goodie based on all of the positive responses it gets. But the 520 looks a little better!
