1 out of 5 stars WAS NOT WHAT I EXPECTED.......2007-10-30

I CHOSE THIS DEVICE BECAUSE OF PRICE AND WHAT THE DESCRIPTION SAID IT WAS CAPABLE OF. I EXPECTED MORE FROM MOTOROLA. I THOUGHT I COULD LISTEN TO MUSIC ON IT, BUT I CAN NOT. IT ALSO DROPS CALLS AND CONNECTIVITY FOR NO REASON.

4 out of 5 stars Improvement over the HS850.......2007-10-11

I have previously used five other Motorola bluetooth headsets. I started with a HS820, while it was quite comfortable to wear, people often had a hard time hearing me with its total lack of a boom microphone. I next used two HS810 units, then two HS850s. The longer boom made them somewhat better for picking up my voice, but the perforated "skirt" that seals the earpiece to the ear has an annoying habit of tearing off, making them uncomfortable and making it much harder to hear the caller's voice. The only reason I can see for the perforation of the "skirt" is to make them fail, a very annoying feature.

The HS830 eliminates this problem, but to maximize voice pickup, the ear bud is best placed in my left ear with the microphone portion of the cord resting upon my chin. The ear bud/ mic cord is a little short for this arrangement. So far it seems far more durable than the "on ear" designs.

An ideal design would probably have the LED control from the HS820 (lights up solid when talking), and a long, skinny mic boom that extends all the way to the mouth, for better voice pickup, like some of the Plantronics headsets that are designed for telemarketers.

All of these bluetooth headsets could all use higher volume capabilities for the ear speaker. The slightest amount of background noise means holding the headset tightly to the ear to hear better. That takes the "hands free" feature away, annoying while driving.

Not exactly what i was hoping for, it is handy however the battery doesn't last as long as you'd expect...

1 out of 5 stars complaints of audibility.......2007-05-29

I love the lanyard and the earpiece (even though it looks kinda dorky w/ the flashing Motorola logo facing out), but (1) my phone (also a motorola) doesn't automatically detect it when it's on [maybe I'm doing something wrong, but if I am there are no instructions as to how to do it right]; (2) my friends often complain that they can't hear me very well when I'm using this bluetooth device .... so I end up not using it very much! Boo hoo

2 out of 5 stars What a let down........2007-03-15

I ordered this item in May, 2006. I had a previous bluetooth headset the HS500, but it was so small I forgot it in my pocket and it went through the washer. It was still working but most of the time people could not hear me. I wanted another handsfree device that would be big enough so I would not forget it in my pocket. The product worked well the reception was good, but last month it just stopped working. I could not hear anything on the device and I have had the product only for 9 months. I expected a product to work for at least a year before it quits on me.
