| Briskodian | Recommend me a bluetooth headset With my 4 year old Sony HBH-300 coming to it's demise soon  I think it's time to invest in another bluetooth headset. When I bought the Sony, it was pretty much the top model (for battery life especially - 10hrs talk time / 300hrs standby) and I bought it because of this, without realising how uncomfortable it is and it didn't really go loud enough  Any recommendations at all? What are you all using now and what do you like / dislike about it? My priorities are (in order): Long battery life Comfortable to wear for longish periods Good audio quality (both sent and received) / noise cancelling Must be able to go loud! My current one is no-where near loud enough really - it's always on full volume as is the handset and sometimes I find my self pressing the headset into my ear to get it louder!!! Kind of defeats the point Thanks for any help!

| Re: Recommend me a bluetooth headset Get a Jawbone. Absolutley brilliant for noise quality etc You can drive at 70+ with window down and sounds like ur standing still. The have a little sensor that detects when ur speaking and cancells out all other noise Steve

| Briskodian | Re: Recommend me a bluetooth headset I did think of a Jawbone, yeah. Although I have to admit, the £70 pricetag is swaying me away from it at the moment!!

| Go Gadget Octy! | Re: Recommend me a bluetooth headset Jawbone are the best, but you pay for it. It you need one 24/7 for work get one. If only for occasional, I'd recommend a Jabba headset as the best of the middle market. |

Ok. Do you think they'd be able to remap it for me to get more volume or higher battery life? Only joking! I knew you meant Jabra really
