Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset for all Bluetooth Enabled Phones - Nickel
: I got this about a week ago. So far this has been great. I like its small size. My boss has the HS850 with the boom mic and all it looks a bit bigger than mine. Sound quality is excellent. I have Sony Ericsson Z520a. I could talk with the windows rolled down on busy roads. Have not tried on freeways, but why would you roll down your windows on a freeway.
The only problem I found was redial. I kept it in my shirt pocket, and it redialed my friend the button is very sensitive. I used it in DMV with a big Queue and it worked perfect. For the most part I will keep the headset I am comparing against HS850, but I found few reviews where volume is a problem with HS850, the volume with this set is perfect. I will come back with more review if I happen to change it.
Since purchasing my Razr, I've done some extensive shopping and comparison to improve upon my Motorola H820 Bluetooth headset. After trying a couple other popular brands, I've purchased this model and am very happy with it.
For Razr owners, the H500 uses the same charging attachment as the Razr, which is a HUGE plus. The button placement is simple and easy to master. I had no problems whatsoever getting the headset to connect with my phone or using it to place calls.
Sometimes less is more -- that's certainly the case with this little Bluetooth headset. It's the best all-around value in a Bluetooth headset, especially for use with a Razr.
Okay, I'll admit it: I have larger than normal ears. Perhaps that's why the earpiece works pretty well for me. I can wear it for long periods without any discomfort, even though I also wear glasses.
The sound quality for the user is also excellent. I can hear the person on the other line perfectly. It's really quite impressive. However, I will say that the person on the other end isn't particularly loud. Generally, I can hear the other person without any trouble while driving at around 70 mph in my Acura RSX, but it's a little faint with some people. I think this is the main deficiency of the device -- the sound could be louder.
On the other hand, it's very lightweight, has an amazing battery life, has a low price, and it pairs with my Nokia 6600 without any problem. All in all, I'm glad I bought it.
I wnated this to use for my car. Reception was fine with Treo 650 however I couldn't hear the caller. Perhaps the headset did not fit my ear well or this unit was malfunctioning but it was worthless. I drive a car that is quiet so I wasn't asking that much of the unit. It was marginal in a quiet room. I replaced it with a Pantronics Discovery 640. Much more expensive but works well (see my other review)
I used this headset with a LG VX8100 phone. The headset was incredibly comfortable and I never had connectivity issues. However, no matter what I did and who I called the people I spoke with could not hear me and if they did, they heard a extremely loud echo. The problem became so bad that I had to get rid of the headset and replace it with a different brand. I was very dissapointed as this was so confortable and easy to use.
