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.

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 had a wired telephone headset from Plantronics that I liked very much, but it eventually died. I replaced it with a Plantronics CS55 wireless headset, which works differently but still gets the job done. There are two different versions of the CS55: one for home use and one for professional...

Plantronics CS55

In the tech support world, we need to be able to converse over the phone in comfort, since most of the support we provide is over the phone. Because of this, a standard handset may not be a good idea, least you like having a sore neck. Thus, our help desk department... Read full review »
