Bluetooth cellphone headset recommendation?

I lost my old one. Some crappy Plantronics one. Anything you guys are using and are happy with? Most important is sound quality both for the mic (for the person I am talking to), and the sound coming in.

I used to have some long mic bluetooth some 10 years ago, and that was the best set I've ever had. People could not believe I am not on a land line. That company (don't remember the name) is no longer exist.

I just want something not pathetic. I don't want the best of the best. Any recommendations?

I've been using Plantronics for years. Some of the most expensive ones on the market. A few months back I wanted to find one that let you listen to music...xmradio app, Pandora, etc. Only a few have that capability and needs to have A2DP technology. Well I found one so cheap like $30+ and is better than my $150+ ones. The person on the other end doesn't know I'm on Bluetooth nor is there any sort of delay. Its Plantronics M25.

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Bimmer App

Had the jawbone and as far as call quality went it was flawless. I used it for a few hours and put it away - never seen it since. Despite the numerous ear piece sizes it came with I couldn't for the life of me make it stay in my ear. That and I think people look strange talking to themselves.

Blue Ant or JawBone.

I don't like looking like a bluetooth douche so I prefer the stereo bluetooth headsets that look like regular earbud stereo headphones like the sony mw600.

Jawbone or some of the higher end Jabra ones.

It's mainly for the car. I would most likely leave it in the car when I walk out. IF I use it in the street, I mainly use it when I walk fast and am tired of holding the phone into my ear.

I don't like the douche look, and more than that, I am not comfortable with the health risks associated with RF next to my head. But...C'est la vie, right?

So far, I like what I saw for the M25, some reviewers say that it is the best headset they've ever had, better than $100-$200 headsets they had in the past.

On the flashy side, the BlueAnt looks good, at least on the paper. The "Commute" looks interesting too. The Q3 is not out yet. Maybe I get one later, if I wouldn't like the M25.

For a really cool setup, check out the Jabra Go 6400 series. I use a 6470 - links to my desk phone, computer, and cellphone. Not cheap, but really slick setup.

I've also been very happy with the Motorola HX550. I hate walking around wearing a BT headset unless I'm actively using it, so being able to simply/easily/quickly turn the BT headset on and off is important. The little flip on the Moto does this, which drastically extends battery life. It powers on and links up quick enough to answer the phone while ringing. It's a bit of an older model, Moto may have some newer version.

I am designing a new speaker for smartphones. It should be ready by June I hope. Will be quite nice. Great for the park,beach,car and on bike rides.

the actual RF module on those stereo bluetooth headsets don't go next to your ears like the single/mono headsets.

Either way, the RF output of a bluetooth headset should generally be significantly less than the RF output of the cellphone itself.
