What is a good Stereo Bluetooth headset? - Nexus 4 Accessories

I was looking at the Plantronics Backbeat Go... Maybe might consider the Antec ISO but that extra clip part is turning me off...
I know battery life wont be good... I dont like the messy cables..
Anyone have any experiences with these would like to share...

I love my LG HBS 700s, they work great.

Is that the Tone, the one with the thing that goes around the neck?
BTW, forgot to mention that I'm looking for earbuds version not over ear...

Stereo Bluetooth Headset
I have a Sony SBH20, its great. You can use your own headphones with it, although their is nothing wrong with the ones that come with it just a very short cable. It also has a NFC chip in it, so no fussing about with pairing, just tap the phone to the device and it will turn on Bluetooth, and pair immediately. Before I had the Sony MW600 which was also good but the SBH20 has a much MUCH better clip and can actually be attached to your belt, pocket etc, I have it clipped to either my front inside jacket pocket or to my front right pants pocket if I am using a longer pair of headphones. It feels incredibly sturdy, it feels like it will outlive my phone.

Yes those are the tones. I have the tones + or 730 model are these the type your looking for? And battery life is awesome I am charging every three days or so and I watch a lot of Netflix using them and the normal games and talking.

I really like my Tones (730's). Very convenient, great battery life, comfortable, and the controls are easy to reach.
But with that said I mainly listen to podcasts. For music they are mediocre at best, but I would guess most bluetooth headsets are (unless you want to drop a bunch of coin on the Sennheisers - and even then, it's still bluetooth).

I was looking at the tones, but the neckband thing might get annoying..
I play golf so not sure if it might get in the way or maybe come off during my swing... Is there anyway to remove the neckband thing and still work?

I did some research last year and ended up with the Kinivo BTH220 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones.
They hold a charge forever and sound good too.

that looks nice... but not having the ability to have just 1 side off is turning me off.. there are a few headphones that are nice looking and they do sound great compared to earbud version... I think I like the smaller earbuds version though...
Thanx

I play golf 2. And while I don't listen to music on the golf course, I just put mine on & hit a few balls into my practice net and it is not a problem. It fits under your collar and doesn't really move around much in the swing.

I have the Plantronic BackBeat Go. Very light weight, solid product. It's an in-ear style so it blocks out a lot of outside noise which is great but just pay attention while waking across a street.
Battery life is approx 5-6 hours for me. It could be longer but the unit itself is so small... Where would they put a bigger battery? LOL!
I'd recommend them.

They're ok, but as I said, compared to good wired buds (akg, senn, shure, etc.) they are mediocre at best. But for fifty bucks I wasn't expecting great sound quality.
I prefer the extended highs setting, and wished it didn't always reset to the heavy bass setting at power on.

I really like my Motorola S10-HD headset... It pairs quickly, and eliminates the cords. I find that the headset needs to be at almost full volume most of the time, though, as it is a little quiet. This may be a design choice to keep the battery life high...

Combine voodoo control and poweramp you got good combination. So far poweramp is the only good music player with sound amp for all 2.x devices.

2nd this. I am using this set up and it is great. even makes a cheap pair of skull candies sound good.
+1 for Voodoo/PowerAmp combination. TBH, Poweramp sounds good even by itself, as I know a few people without rooted phones running it. Poweramp has the best equalizer of anything out for Android as of right now. Very customizable, and even has individual treble and bass knobs that are adjustable after you set your EQ. Super-customizable sound regardless of what type of music you are into...
I Personally enjoy using the preset "Bass and Treble" for my Hardcore/Metal/Punk needs, and a slightly customized Bass and Treble for Rap/Hip-Hop. Depending on your headphones though, you'll have to modify it to fit your ear.

I'm actually lookin online for something like those right now. At Boeing they don't want us wearing headphones while we work, so I'm trying to find something that I can pass off as earplugs while still serving a purpose.

you could were ear muffs over them but the def dont look like ear plugs lol if you have hair i have heard ppl dont see them i shave my head so...... yeah sore thumb also beaware i love them but if you have big ear holes lol like me then they WILL slip but you can hear better the outside world i work around trucks and my boss is about 50 miles away.......... so yeah no problem for me
i owned the sony dr-bt160as and now the backbeats
sony's were alot more comfortable but didn't claim noise reduction
sound quality are equal in my opinion...the sony's have slightly less ability to be heard when speaking.
i also wear glasses so keep that in mind on the comfort factor
the backbeats are a little more troublesome with day to day pairing
the sony's can be turned on before pairing with the epic bt
whereas the backbeats must be turned on after bt is enabled first on the phone
both will repair if you walk away from your device and then back in range.
sound quality is roughly the same as is battery life over 7-8 hours for both
backbeats were a lot cheaper...
however if i did it all over again i would still choose the sony's...for comfort, usability, and style...with a slight disadvantage on the microphone.

Good bluetooth headphones?

Anyone know of any high quality bluetooth headphones with a mic? They would have to be the in ear kind. I'm willing to spend up to 200. I've been searching around and their really aren't that many to choose from. I work in security and most of the time I'm baby sitting empty buildings so they would have to be descret enough not to be noticed on the camera's if anyone choose to review them. Taking all suggestions. Bluetooth is kinda my last resort.. I really don't want to part with my CM7. Lol

Yeah, I've read a lot of good things about those. I also had the Moto s9's Hd and not. Hd's were much better but still sucked. SOOO MUCH STATIC. whenever the music would go down or change songs I would hate myself because it sounded terrible. I convinced myself that I needed them because I felt like my wire got stuck everywhere. Anyway, long story short got myself these. Never looked back. The only problem I forsee is they are sound proof.

The i's pause button will work.. play sometimes. It will work with the last music player app you add.. it's weird. I know. If you have any questions pm me.
Edit: Both of my motorola's broke in one way or another. One the speaker ripped out because I dropped it, and the other.. just stopped working? Idk.. I had to send it in for something and they sent me a new one... the HD set.

OK, so I'm watching a movie -through Infuse- via the HDMI port and I'm receiving a call (on Infuse)
Would I be able to take the call and leave the rest of the family enjoying the movie?
I'm asking this because in theory Android can/could drive two different sound (one through HDMI, another through my bluetooth headset/handsfree for calls), but is this possible IN PRACTICE?
Has anyone tried that?
I'm sorry for the question, but I do not own a BT headset and depending on the answer to the above I will decide on buying it/that. I have no qualms installing custom roms if need be...

bluetooth headphones
I have the jaybird JP3MB bluetooth headphones. I think they are superb. I can tell you when listening to music taking a call will pause the music and it resumes upon hangup. I would think movies might do the same thing.
Not In-ear but over the ear...
I have the Arctic P311 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones, paid $34 for them locally (via Amazon). They sound great flat and even better with some EQ. I would like to see/hear the difference between them and these other seemingly overpriced Bluetooth headphones.
I was going to purchase the Nokia BT headphones but saw these and at $34 what risk is there???
Not disappointed at all!
Sure they might not sound as great as ones plugged directly into the phone, but they don't sound bad at all and more than acceptable especially with all the stuff I've heard about Bluetooth SQ.
I originally bought these for my Pantech Link which has no phone output. You can buy a special connector that goes into where you make the connection to charge the phone and for data connection as well.
I highly recommend the Plantronics Backbeat 903+. I've had them for a few months, and use them whenever working out. The call/mic quality is pretty good, as is the music/speaker quality. My only complaint would be that it's a little flat on the bass end; other than that, I really like them.
My friend tried them out once, and bought a pair the same day. His, however, stopped working after a couple runs on the treadmill. He thinks it's because he sweats a lot and they got wet. Plantronics replaced them free of charge and he never had the same issue again.
There are actually a newer version of them out now, called the Backbeat Go. I haven't tried them, so I have no idea how they sound or feel. They seem like they'd be more comfortable to wear, especially when running or working out.
i can vouch for the first reply; i got a pair of jaybird jf3's and they work amazingly well. pricey, but worth it

What's a good Bluetooth for our phones?

Bluetooth what? Headphones?

if you are looking for bluetooth headset, try Sony Ericsson MW600. it can accommodate up to 3 bluetooth devices and it has a built in FM tuner.
Probably not the answer you're looking for but I needed a speaker for my phone and elected for wireless via bluetooth for ease of connectivity and roaming around my apartment.
I ended up buying the Logitech Wireless Boombox. I love the thing. It was an absolute lifesaver at a party we threw at our house. It's not as powerful as a traditional boombox but it will do the job for a small patio. My favorite feature is that it's rechargeable and can go up to 6 hours without being plugged in. I will add though that there is an increase in volume when plugged in.
My wife wanted one for her (since I would always take mine on business trips), but wanted something more compact. We tried our luck with a Zimri bluetooth speaker from Fry's for $30. Jeez.. right out the box, I was impressed with the thing. Honestly, for $30 I was expecting build quality to be poor, but it was quite the opposite. The thing has a little weight to it for a tiny speaker. The sound? For a tiny little thing it actually sounds decent, though it cannot compete with my Logitech of course. However, one of the best features of the Zimri is that it plays at top volume with little to no distortion. Add to it the fact that it too is rechargeable and wireless, you can hide the thing practically anywhere. I highly recommend it if you're not willing to fork out $199 on the Jawbone version (that thing sounds awesome too by the way).

Well I did a quick look at Best Buy just to see what exactly is out there (never would pay their prices though haha) and yeah I noticed there was one Motorola pair. There was also another pair that looked fairly decent...

Even though it's a tad old lol
I am going to connect it to my Parrot Minikit Neo bt speakerphone in my truck, then maybe try the Sony Ericsson MW600 and also the HTC Stereoclip, Also connect it to my N7 to see what it can do tether-wise. Oh forgot to see how it works with the torque app to read my odbII bt dongle and also my work phone which should connect via bt on my jabra pro headset.
Best Bluetooth headphones in my opinion are the Motorola s11 flex HD I just purchased. They sound great even with the garbage sound problems introduced in 4.2 and fit very well. They are sweat proof, have about 6 hours of playback, 150 for range and fast charging technology. 20 mins to a full charge and 5 mins for an hour. They pair very easily to my n10 and n4 as well. They aren't cheap though... run about $130. Well worth it as my last Motorola set lasted me 4 years, hundreds of hours running and washing the car, and a half marathon.

I have bluetooth headphones and will never be able to go back to corded. It's so awesome to be in my chair at work and be able to turn from one computer to another without the cord getting tangled etc
I've had several pairs:
My first pair: http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-S305-Bluetooth-Headset-Microphone/dp/B002BH3I9U/
They were cheap and I wanted to see if I could get by with bluetooth. They have a built in batter and use the same micro usb to charge so that was really convenient. Relatively comfortable and decent sound quality for the price. Battery life is so-so, and you cannot charge and listen to them at the same time
My current pair: http://www.amazon.com/Creative-WP-300-Wireless-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B004D4R9VC
Really good sound quality, especially the bass. Great battery life (I plug them in every couple days when I leave work). My only gripe is that they are On-Ear rather than circumaural. They can get a little uncomfortable to wear for extended periods of time (2+ hours) The other issue is that unlike the two I discuss below, there is no 3.55 jack for you to plug in in case the battery dies. I've never had an issue with this, but it's something to keep in mind. They also support Apt-X, which I don't think the N4 does
I am looking to upgrade, and the two I'm looking at are:
http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-MM-500-X-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B0076NDV0U
and
http://www.amazon.com/Parrot-Zik-Touch-Activated-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B0081TH24O
The Parrot has NFC which should make pairing them a breeze. Their sound quality is supposed to be excellent, and they are supposed to be overall awesome headphones. The main complaint I've seen in my research is that battery life is not quite up to par.
The Sennheiser are supposed to have superb sound quality as well, and generally have at least as good of features as the Parrot, though the sound quality supposedly takes a hit with Active Noise Canceling enabled. I don't really use noise canceling so I'm not sure how much I care (there is also the Sennheiser 500-X which don't offer it at all and are cheaper)
Engadget has a pretty solid review of the Parrot, and that's what I'm leaning towards right now, since I leave them at work I can just charge them every night so I don't think the battery life will be an issue for me.
Hopefully this helps!

Speaking of jambox...If you ever get interested in a bluetooth speaker...I have a jabra solemate and it's pretty awesome! It's a little larger than the jambox though but the volume and bass output is high enough for enjoyable outdoor use. Battery life has been extremely good. I got mine for $150.
I have the back beat 903+ from plantronics. Great warranty too. When they send you a replacement it starts a new 1 year warranty instead of continuing on the original. Have some issues staying connected if jogging from pocket but not in an armband or if you are just walking.

Oh btw, if you're going to be using bluetooth with wifi, you might wanna see if your wifi runs on 5ghz. I'm having a little trouble with my 2.4ghz wifi occasionally cutting out when bluetooth is engaged due to both transmitting on the same frequency.
Unfortunately, I can't switch to 5ghz because that frequency is dedicated to streaming wireless HD video and interactive guide to my TVs.

Headphone bluetooth for Run

Hello Friends,
I'm looking for an headphone bluetooth that permit me to run wireless so I have chose bluetooth.
I want the possibility to listen my mp3 and give, receive call in this headphone.
It's possible?
Some BT Headphone I see have only mono and I have to use some app for lisen music (ex. Bluetooth mono).
In addittion I also have connect to my phone Zephyr HxM Bluetooth Wireless Heart Rate Sensor.
Can I connect two devices on bluetooth and have the result I wont?
Thanks
:silly:
I'm not positive about the two things connected at once. I don't think it would be a problem, though.
As for headphones for running, I use the JLab Go Bluetooth headphones. They're not the greatest in the world, but they sound good, they're sweat-proof, and they're only $40.
I am using the JayBird BlueBird X. They are great for fitness, designed to stay in the ear while being active, sweat proof and decent audio quality. They do allow you to answer calls and change tracks. Tested on my SkyRocket with multiple ROMs and Apps.

I've heard nothing but good things about Jaybirds, but they're pricey.
Those Sonixx look nice, but I would be wary if they don't say that they're sweat-proof, but then I'm a very heavy sweater.
i have the jaybird freedom. i have not used them for the phone yet but used them quite a bit with my ipod nano in the gym. sound quality is good and can handle sweat and water well. i plan on using them soon on my S4 :good:

Take the Sonixx. I also am a very heavy sweater so I think here are good. I see the jaybird but I think are too expensive. I am a Dj and don't want spend much money also for headphone because I just have my fantastic Sony mdr 700 dj

Bluetooth headset for gyms / running must most importantly be able to stay fitted in your ear canal / on your ear. All of these recommendations seem to work just fine.
I wouldn't worry about the prespiration damaging the headsets with regular use. Your sweat just won't reach the electronics in most cases and mine's been working for months.

Cheap, functional, no issues with playing music for the entire gym session Not amazing sound quality but it definitely value for money at that price.Serves most people well however it doesn't look as nice as the earbud designs from Jabra (but Jabras are twice the price).

Good phones but I think are too big for run. I try the headphone I buy and if I think not good I buy Jabra.

Go with Rocketfish RF-MAB2
Buy them on Ebay for $25 dollars.
I have used mine for 4 years.
They do everything you asked for in your original post.
You can have both connected at the same time I connect pebble watch and the car bluetooth with no issues.

Not sure how you guys can run with those over the ear headphones. My ears would get sweaty and gross. That's why earbuds are much better. I always question the people at the gym wearing over the ear beats and stuff. They look completely out of place. Those jaybirds look really nice though. I may have to pick up a pair.

I have a pair of Motorola S4s and they were awesome. The battery is beyond dead on them because I've had them for years and never charge them...(I don't use them anymore) but they're still great.
Might I suggest the LG HBS-730?

It's not cheap but the sound is good and it does work well if you want to workout. The downside is because you are running it will probably bounce (depending on you neck size) but works well if you are a bike rider or spinner.
for what it is worth. I have not had good luck with bluetooth headphones when running. Whether it is getting ruined by sweat or bouncing around too much...
I just go with cheap ones that are open in the ear so you can hear cars/dogs, and the music..
i got the jaybird freedom and i love them.
great quality BT calls everything.
love them

I use these, take the reviews on there with a grain of salt, I run with these almost every day at least 5 miles. They are great, I do get just a slight rubbing on the top of my ears but a small price to pay than dealing with stupid ear buds that always fall out when I start sweating. Also use them in the gym, range is great. I can stand on the other side of the gym from my phone with these and reception is still great, maybe 50 ft.
Battery life is good, I charge one per week and that is with about 1.5 hours of use each day.

im telling you the rocketfish rf-mab2
they are cheap, they are light, they go behind your neck so they dont interupt you when you do a flat bench. they dont move when you run
they have controls on them to change music, pause, fwd rwnd etc
they have a mic on them so you can answer calls and talk.. it pauses your music, answers, and then resumes your music
did i mention you can get them for like $25-30 bucks on ebay
they sync up to the phone via bluetooth fast and the battery lasts for a good amount of time
The Motorola flex 11 hd's aren't bad. I skate, run, and lift in mine and they stay secured very well with no comfort issues. Sound quality is on point with most wired sets. 8/10. They're also water resistant for sweat. Only downside is the back part is prone to breaking if your not careful. I broke mine but Motorola replaced them. If you do get them I would also reccomend some different ear buds then the stock ones.
