Like the HS810, the HS850 makes use of a body design that employs a folding microphone boom. The folding microphone boom acts as the on and off switch, as well as just providing a convenient way to make the headset smaller and more pocketable when not in use. When a call comes into your phone, you can turn on and answer the phone at the same time just by unfolding the microphone boom. You can end the call and turn it off by removing the headset and re-folding it. Using the headset in this way conserves battery power, since no battery juice is wasted on standby time - time where the headset sits around waiting to be contacted by a mobile phone or other compatible device. The physical design of the HS850 and the battery savings it imparts is my favorite aspect of the Motorola HS850. Less

Recent legislation in the City of Chicago requires all persons in control of a vehicle to be required to use a hands free device if using a cell phone. This, along with the added benefit of ease of use with my BlackBerry 8700c I chose the Motorola HS850 to be able to be legal and add the... Read full review »

When I initially started to use my Blackberry 7290, I received complaints about the headset that came with it. Although the sound was clear on my end, I was told by many people that it sounded like I was going through a tunnel. I remembered that my father had bought a Motorola Bluetooth Headset...

I picked up this little unit at Fry's Electronics, for about 3 bucks (after rebate), so I didn't expect much. Oddly enough, that's about what I got. I'd lost BOTH of my EXCELLENT Jabra BT135 headsets, at... Read full review »

If the new California hands free law were not going in to effect, I would never have purchased any kind of headset or hands free device. I am not a cell phone fanatic. I use my phone sparingly and rarely while driving. Hands free usage has never been an issue for me and searching for a hands free... Read full review »
