"It would have to be better to be awful" | 2008-10-06 |

| Horrible. I own ten different bluetooth headsets, and this one is so bad that it now has a permanent home in the junk drawer. It can't connect in a timely manner; the sound transmission is tin can and string quality; and it hangs up on callers at a random time that it determines. The connection issue is just inexcusable. It takes a very long time to connect to my phone-upwards of 20 seconds-and by then, the caller has abandonded the call. I have paired it multiple times to no avail. It is useless as a headset. The cheaper H500 has been great however, so more money doesn't necessarily mean a better headset from Motorola. Avoid this one. |

"great for the money" | 2008-10-03 |

I purchased this item as I believe that having to speak on a cell phone while driving is an extremely dangerous situation.
However I did not want to spend a great deal of money, because I feel that cell phones are a nusiance.
This is a remarkable piece of equipment for the money that I paid. My wife purchased a different brand for twice the price and does not have some of the features that this one does.
Well worth the money.

"stupid charger" | 2008-09-22 |

| The headset works fine, is clear, etc. but the charger is not compatable with anything else. My old Motorola H700 had the same "USB" type charger as my Blackberry (and many other things around the office) so I was able to charge it up where ever. now I have to use the specific one that came with the headset. Very wasteful and frustrating. Everything should use the same charger, in my opinion, but that would be too efficient, I guess. |

"Best out of the four types I've used!!" | 2008-09-13 |
| - Reviewed By User: A2WN48IMYXDATP |
I bought this one originally, however, it got broken in a few months. I returned it to the store where I bought it (It had an extended service warranty) and they no longer carried it.
I went through another Motorola model (it was uncomfortable) then through two different Plantronics models.
After spending months using the others, I decided I liked the Motorola HS850 the best and found it on Amazon at a cheaper price due to bulk packaging.
The other ones I used were either to tight, uncomfortable, or loose on my ear, kept a charge for too short of time, and most of all was ease of use.
The HS850 cuts on/off by folding the mouthpiece whereas the other types I used required holding the button down for a few seconds (which if I didn't look at the light, I'd end up leaving it on which meant a dead battery when I needed it.)
The only drawback I have is that I wish I could turn it up a little louder...but maybe that's just my hearing.
Motorola has great customer service as well and promply handled a probelm I had. |

This is the first Bluetooth Headset I have owned that actually paired up easily, the first time and every time. Close the mic to save power, auto unpairs the phone, Open the mic, auto pair with phone every time. |

| My friend told me about this bluetooth, because the one I paid more for in a store was really uncomfortable. Within a half hour my ear would start hurting. The Motorola HS850 Bluetooth is so comfortable. I would recommend it to everyone |

| This was the first bluetooth that i got and didnt want to spend much money until i knew i would use it a lot, because i wasnt sure how much i would need it. It has been a good bluetooth for the cash spent. I would buy it again. I am able to talk to my daughter with her using her bluetooth and the quality is pretty good. |
