Buying Guide: How to Buy a Bluetooth Headset

Motorola really blew it last year with the MotoPURE H12, a misguided early attempt at offering a noise-canceling Bluetooth headset. The noise cancellation circuitry simply didn't work on our tests. The headset itself didn't sound all that great, either; one person our reviewer called with it asked if he was speaking from the bottom of a swimming pool.

The company is up at bat again with the MotoPURE H15 ($129.99 direct) MotoPURE, the H12's slightly smaller, sleeker, updated successor. Motorola has also released the lower-cost ($99.99) H780, a fine headset with dual-mic noise cancellation and Motorola's patented CrystalTalk technology. For the extra $30, however, the H15 offers a smaller design with a folding boom mic that acts as a power switch, a new RapidConnect feature, and additional wind suppression.
