Mobile phones have long been a part of our everyday life, so it is not surprising that more and more new accessories for these communication devices are constantly appearing. The most fashionable trend that has actively developed over the past year has been various solutions based on wireless technologies, in particular Bluetooth.

Owners of phones with a Bluetooth adapter can exchange data with various devices, for example, with laptops and pocket computers equipped with the appropriate adapter. This solution allows you to use a mobile phone to connect a PDA or laptop to the Internet in almost any conditions. In this case, there is no need not only to connect a special cable, but also to install the phone in close proximity to the device with which data is exchanged. Unlike the infrared interface, the use of which imposes rather strict restrictions on the relative position of connected devices, Bluetooth allows you to establish a connection between devices located at a distance of up to 10 m and not necessarily within line of sight.

If we consider the primary function mobile phones(that is, voice communication), then one of the most valuable properties of devices equipped with Bluetooth is the ability to use wireless Bluetooth headsets, which provide maximum freedom of movement during a conversation and the ability to remotely control basic functions.

Thanks to the relatively large range of the wireless interface, Bluetooth headsets allow you to remotely use a phone located in a desk drawer or bag. To control basic functions - in particular, picking up the handset and adjusting the volume - wireless headsets have control buttons. In addition, many models of wireless Bluetooth headsets support voice control functions, which allows you to avoid using buttons altogether.

If speak about design features modern models of wireless Bluetooth headsets, the vast majority of them are designed to be attached to the ear. However, there are other solutions - for example, the Ericsson HBH-20 is actually a transceiver to which you can connect any wired headset equipped with a minijack connector.

When choosing a particular wireless headset model, you should pay attention to the reliability of the fastening (so that the device does not fall during sudden movements or when turning your head). Those who wear glasses should be especially careful about this, since not every design provides comfortable placement of the device along with the temples of the glasses.

As for weight, the “less is better” approach is not always applicable to these products: in some cases, heavier headsets, due to the successful design of the case, turn out to be more comfortable to use than their lightweight counterparts. In addition, much depends on the anatomical features of the user, and a design that is convenient for one person may be of little use for another.

The weight of the vast majority of modern Bluetooth headset models ranges from 23 to 30 g, but there are also real record holders. For example, the Bluespoon series headsets produced by the Danish company Nextlink weigh only 9.5 g and, according to their creators, provide maximum comfort even for those users who wear glasses.

Like any other stand-alone devices, Bluetooth headsets have a limited operating life, depending on the capacity of the built-in battery and the level of power consumption of the device. Most modern Bluetooth headset models use compact lithium ion batteries with a capacity of about 100-200 mAh. As a rule, manufacturers do not indicate technical specifications capacity of the built-in battery, providing only information about the maximum battery life of the headset in standby and talk modes. The battery life in talk mode (when power consumption reaches its maximum) for most modern models of Bluetooth headsets is 2.5-4 hours, and in standby mode - several days.

Recharging the built-in battery in various models Bluetooth headsets are implemented in different ways: in one case, you need to connect a cable from a special charger, and in another, you just need to install the headset in the supplied cradle stand. For many modern Bluetooth headset models, the minimum time required to fully charge the battery is only 1 hour.

The range presented on Russian market wireless Bluetooth headsets are still small. And in the eyes of the overwhelming majority of domestic mobile phone users, such devices are expensive and not very useful exotica. True, it is worth noting that now there is a gradual decline in the price level for Bluetooth headsets: models priced at about $100 have already appeared on sale, but just a year ago one could only dream of such a thing.

Along with the reduction in prices for wireless bluetooth headsets, an additional factor that can have a positive impact on the growing popularity of these devices may be an increase in the number of mobile phone models equipped with a Bluetooth adapter. Currently, there is a fairly wide range of such devices on sale. In addition, many manufacturers produce external Bluetooth adapters for models that do not have this interface. As a rule, such adapters are made in the form of compact modules that are docked to the interface connector of the phone.

The problem of compatibility of Bluetooth headsets with telephone sets from different manufacturers and even with individual models included in the line of the same manufacturer remains very relevant. As practice shows, the same headset can work perfectly with one phone model and not work with another. The main problems that occur when working with certain devices are an unstable connection and noticeable distortion of the transmitted sound signal. The same applies to support for the voice dialing function: even if it is declared by the headset manufacturer, in most cases it is not possible to use it on all devices.

As you can see, calling Bluetooth headsets ideal hands-free is still only a stretch. However, there is hope that over time the existing shortcomings will be eliminated, and prices will become affordable for a wide range of mobile phone owners.

The A2DP profile allows you to transmit a high-quality stereo signal to a Bluetooth headset. This profile is necessary for listening to music tracks, both from the memory of a mobile device and via the Internet.

Multipoint

Very useful feature, the presence of which we recommend paying special attention to. Multipoin will allow you to connect the headset to two devices at the same time, that is, the headset is in standby mode between the two devices, as soon as a call is received on one of the devices, the headset automatically switches to that device. When the call ends, the headset automatically returns to standby mode between the two devices.

If you have two phones, a phone and a tablet, or a phone and a laptop, and at the same time you talk via voice telephony on both devices, then, of course, give preference to a headset that supports the Multipoint function.

Range

This Bluetooth headset parameter indicates at what distance from the “base” the Bluetooth device can operate, while still providing a reliable and high-quality signal. As a rule, manufacturers indicate the range of a Bluetooth headset signal at 10m, but in practice this parameter is quite abstract. The parameter of 10m specified by the manufacturer is abstract, since it is taken into account under ideal conditions: the absence of obstacles between the “base” and the headset, the absence of interference, etc. In reality, this parameter is about 3-5 meters, due to the fact that there are often various obstacles and interference between the “base” and the headset.

Battery life

The last number dialed function allows you to call the last person you called by pressing one key on the headset. Thus, this is another advantage that allows you not to take your smartphone out of your pocket.

Mute the microphone

This feature allows you to mute your microphone during a voice call so that the person you're talking to can't hear what you're saying.

Noise suppression

Noise reduction technology allows for better voice transmission, trying to eliminate background noise, due to the fact that the microphone in the device is quite sensitive.

Status indicator

The presence of an LED indicator will allow you to monitor the operating mode of the headset: connection with the “base” and loss of signal, battery charge level, etc.

Display

Some Bluetooth headset models have a display. The display displays the caller's number or name, service symbols, signal reception level, battery charge level, etc.

Hook Mount

The earhook design ensures a more secure fit of the headset to your ear; with it you will not be afraid to make sudden movements of your head.

3.5mm headphone jack

For stereo headsets, manufacturers make a 3.5 mm jack in the headset itself, which allows you to connect regular headphones, while the headset becomes a buffer device.

When choosing a Bluetooth headset for your smartphone, be sure to check it by synchronizing it with your phone. It happens that sometimes both devices can be working properly, but for some reason, during interaction, they will experience errors. Therefore, check how quickly the devices synchronize and the signal quality. Make a call and test the call quality.

Also check the quality of the headset itself. All parts must be firmly connected to each other, and the buttons must not wobble.

How to choose a headset for your phone

It is best to choose a headset for your phone from the same company as the phone itself, since the interaction between devices from the same company will be very good. Therefore, for smartphones and phones from Samsung, of course, it is best to give preference to a headset from this particular company.

How to choose a headset for your computer

For a computer, it is best to select a headset, first of all, based on the brand of your phone, since almost all laptops are not particularly demanding on Bluetooth headsets.

They were a must-have accessory for busy businessmen, for whom the convenience of talking without having to take the phone out of their pocket is very important. But today wireless headsets are used everywhere - largely due to the significant reduction in cost, ease of use and a huge number of different models that are produced by hundreds of manufacturers.

A good headset should be reliable and fit comfortably in your ears. But if you, for example, like to listen to music, then you need to approach the choice from one side, and if you just need to quickly receive voice calls, then the selection criteria will be slightly different.

Below we will look at the most important characteristics of Bluetooth headsets, and then we will bring to your attention a dozen excellent models that are presented for sale in our catalog.

Key Features You Should Pay Attention to

Traditional Bluetooth headsets, which are attached to one ear, have only one audio channel - mono. Such models are designed specifically for those who need to be constantly in touch due to their professional activities. They are very compact and weigh little (often only about 10 g), but you won’t be able to listen to music on such headsets in acceptable quality, simply because there is only one earphone. The controls for such headsets are located directly on the body.

Stereo headsets are suitable for almost everyone - they offer high-quality two-channel sound, and usually handle calls just as well. The microphone and controls can be located either on the body or on the wires - it all depends on the design. For obvious reasons, these models are usually heavier and not nearly as compact as traditional ones.

Bluetooth version

When choosing a Bluetooth headset, you should not consider models that support protocol versions older than 3.0. Bluetooth version 3.0 and higher is enough for both high-quality music transmission (as far as the protocol itself allows) and for conversations without any serious distortion. As a rule, newer versions of Bluetooth imply more economical battery consumption, but in this regard it is better to rely on reviews and tests of specific models - operating time depends more on the battery capacity and the internal logic of the headset.

It was finalized not long ago Bluetooth standard 5.0, which provides even greater efficiency, but headsets supporting it have not yet been released.

Range

In 99% of cases, you will use the headset when the phone is either in your pocket or on the table. But if you are going, for example, to constantly move within the office, and the phone will be at your workplace, then range will be an important parameter.

Manufacturers almost always indicate the maximum range, which in real conditions is greatly reduced (up to 50%) due to walls, doors and other obstacles - this must be taken into account when choosing.

Headphone type

Based on the type of design, headsets are divided into plug-in (“plugs”) and overhead.

The first ones are more compact and comfortable to use. Once upon a time, their sound was considered much inferior to the sound of on-ear models, but in recent years, the development of technology has made it possible to bring its quality closer to the quality of “full-size” headphones. In this regard, everything greatly depends on the specific headset.

On-ear headsets offer high quality sound- they completely cover the ears and better protect them from the outside world. Additionally, they often have larger batteries. At the same time, they are more bulky and heavy.

3.5mm headphone jack

Some models (mostly overhead ones) have a 3.5 mm audio output so that they can be used as wired ones in case of battery depletion. In addition, there are models without headphones included, which are a small plastic case with an audio output.

The presence of NFC technology support allows you to quickly connect the headset to your phone - to do this, just bring it close to it, after which pairing will occur automatically. A very useful feature for those who always lack time.

A2DP, AVRCP

A2DP profile support allows the headset to receive a higher quality signal. For conversations this is not so important, but for listening to music it is almost necessary. However, even the sound quality of A2DP is inferior to the sound quality of conventional wired headphones due to the peculiarities of the Bluetooth protocol.

The AVRCP profile allows you to remotely control media devices - for example, TVs or music centers with Bluetooth support.

Battery

Most often, Bluetooth headsets use standard lithium-ion batteries for the mobile device industry. They are quite capacious and provide long talk time - up to ten hours (in some cases, even more).

Lithium polymer batteries are used less frequently - they are more expensive, but weigh a little less. In addition, they do not withstand shock well.

Additional features

If you use several smartphones at once, then the headset must support Multipoint technology, which will allow it to switch between devices without problems.

The most demanding music lovers can select a headset based on support for the Apt-X codec, which makes the sound of music almost indistinguishable from the sound of MP3. Music lovers may also like the separate DSP chip, which processes the signal, reducing noise and increasing volume.

It is worth paying attention to the number of microphones in the headset. If there are two or more of them, then additional ones are usually used to ensure the operation of the noise reduction system - this makes sound insulation good even in “plugs”. Thanks to noise reduction, listening to music and having a conversation will be easier and more enjoyable.

Finally, sports and healthy lifestyle lovers should pay attention to headsets with a waterproof case. Most of them are sweat and rain resistant, and some can even be used underwater.

Nothing fetters a person in his quest for freedom and independence more than wires - they entangle us, preventing us from moving without difficulties and obstacles. The owners probably know better than anyone that this is not an allegory. wired headphones and headset. However, wired headsets have long been replaced by wireless headsets based on the Bluetooth radio data transmission protocol. They are called Bluetooth headsets.

What it is? Bluetooth headsets are devices that connect to any device that supports the Bluetooth protocol, be it a phone, a smartphone, a player, or even a computer, and work with it as a sound output and input device, that is, in other words, headphones and a microphone.

Advantages of Bluetooth headsets compared to their wired counterparts are obvious: since the connection is carried out using radio communication, Bluetooth headsets do not “tie” you to your phone or other device, and you can freely move away from it at a distance of up to 10 meters. In addition, this headset can be easily connected to almost any Bluetooth-enabled device, while when using wired headsets, problems may arise due to incompatibility of plugs and connectors.

All Bluetooth headsets can be divided into two categories: mono headsets and stereo headsets. Mono headsets are Bluetooth headsets that are worn on one ear and, of course, transmit exclusively a mono signal. Mono headsets are the most common among wireless headsets, which is why they are the ones that pop up in our minds when we hear about Bluetooth headsets. Mono headsets are an ideal solution for people who need a Bluetooth headset solely for voice transmission.

And here stereo headsets Perfect for those who like to not only talk, but also listen to music. In appearance, wireless stereo headsets most closely resemble the wired headsets we are all familiar with - they also have two speakers and an earpiece between them, as well as, in some cases, a retractable microphone. Of course, stereo headsets transmit sound in stereo, making them ideal for listening to music. In addition, music lovers should be pleased by the fact that the presence of player remote control keys, which allow you to quickly pause music playback or switch tracks, is a de facto standard for Bluetooth stereo headsets. By the way, it is worth understanding that stereo headsets, for obvious reasons, are always more expensive than mono headsets with similar characteristics.

Bluetooth headsets are easy to manufacture, and that is why nowadays everyone is making them. Of course, even a fairly technically knowledgeable buyer can get confused in the variety of brands and names. However, if we analyze all the manufacturers involved in the production of Bluetooth headsets, they can be grouped into three categories: industry giants, mobile phone manufacturing companies and third-tier companies.

The first category of Bluetooth headset manufacturers

The first category includes two companies that made a name for themselves in the creation and production of Bluetooth headsets. The first is GN Great Nordic, which produces headsets under the brand Jabra. The brand traces its history back to 1983, when there was no talk about Bluetooth, but it gained well-deserved fame among the people in 2000, when it was released The world's first Bluetooth headset - Jabra BT100. Since then, the Jabra brand has been to the Bluetooth headset market what the Nokia brand is to the mobile phone market and the Windows brand is to the operating system market. True, when buying budget models for a “big name,” the buyer will not have to overpay much: for example, one of the company’s budget models, Jabra BT2080, costs just under 1,000 rubles, which is not bad at all, considering the fairly good voice quality.

However, the main attention, of course, should be paid to more expensive models. The best Jabra mono headset, certainly is Stone2, the successor to the no less remarkable Stone model. Jabra Stone2, like just Stone, has a chic design: if you insert the headset into the docking station, which is also a stand-alone charger, then together they will look like stone polished by sea water. It is worth noting that, despite the extravagant appearance, the Stone2 sits quite comfortably and firmly in the ear. As befits a high-end Bluetooth headset, the Stone2 features voice-activated menus and advanced noise cancellation. Perhaps the only disadvantage of this headset is its price - almost 5,000 rubles.

Second company of the wireless headsets market, worthy of our close attention is the company Aliph, which produces headsets under the brand Jawbone. If Jabra attracts its customers mainly with the sophisticated design of its models, then Jawbone “takes the cake” with the number of technologies used and built-in functions. The company's most advanced devices can be considered the Icon series Bluetooth headsets.

What technologies are used in representatives of this series? Firstly, this is, of course, the proprietary NoiseAssasin noise reduction system, which picks up vibrations in the temporal bone of the skull during a conversation. Using NoiseAssasin allows you to get rid of almost all extraneous noise without distorting your voice, as competitors' products that use similar technology do. Secondly, it is a voice menu system with support for MyTALK technology, which allows you to install various voice applications into the headset memory. And, of course, the Jawbone Icon series products also contain other interesting technologies, from the Sensor Signal Fusion active wind noise suppression system to headset charging indication on the iPhone smartphone screen. The average price for Jawbone Icon headsets is, as in the case of Stone2, 5,000 rubles.

The second category of Bluetooth headset manufacturers

Let's move on to second category of Bluetooth headset manufacturers. Almost every mobile phone manufacturer, from Nokia and Motorola to Apple, has in its assortment one or more Bluetooth headsets designed to work with phones of their own production. Note that Bluetooth headsets from one company in most cases work perfectly with phones from another, as well as with computers, players and other Bluetooth devices. However, it is better to use a headset with a phone of the same brand, since this, firstly, guarantees full compatibility between the phone and the headset, and, secondly, ensures unity corporate identity, which is also important. Let's say that Samsung addressed the HM3100 headset it released to all owners of phones of the most popular Samsung Star series, making it in the same style as the phones of the “star” line. The headset itself is a pretty good product, but its price, about 1,700 rubles, is somewhat overpriced. Thus, a headset with similar characteristics from Nokia, BT-750, can be easily purchased for 750 rubles.

The third category of Bluetooth headset manufacturers

Finally, there are a number of companies manufacturing wireless headsets, whose representatives are not particularly well-known companies, like Texet, Ritmix, Defender and others. Bluetooth headsets produced under their brands have a low price and do not please the buyer with an abundance of additional functions; however, in the budget segment they are almost always ideal devices in terms of price-quality ratio. Thus, the Defender HN-B601 stereo headset not only has a fairly high-quality body and an average price of 1,100 rubles, but also boasts a good-quality carrying case.

Bottom line

So, a Bluetooth headset is a “must have” item, so if you don’t already have a wireless headset, you should get one immediately. There is no shortage of wireless headsets, so you can always find what best suits your ears, your wallet and, of course, you personally.

The best Bluetooth headset for a phone - has high-quality speaker and microphone sound, battery life from 5 to 10 hours, comfort, lightness up to 10 grams, noise reduction/isolation, convenient controls and attractive appearance. A high-quality, wireless Bluetooth headset for your phone doesn't need anything else. 🙂

On the bluetooth headset market, the picture is quite sad and it is difficult to buy a truly high-quality model. There are dozens of manufacturers and hundreds of different models on sale, but 90% of all headsets are under no circumstances worth buying. Defects, bugs in the firmware, communication problems, frankly terrible sound, inconvenient design, etc. To avoid wasting money, we have prepared for you the TOP 10 most the best headsets for phone. They are not ideal, but they have a minimum of disadvantages and a maximum of advantages.

To save time, for a table of all models from the TOP 10, follow the anchor link:

6 best headset models:

Jabra BT2035, Plantronics M75

Rating of the 10 best bluetooth headsets for phones for 2016-2017

The two most popular manufacturers of wireless Bluetooth headsets for phones are Jabra and Plantronics. They are the ones who produce Top models, with a minimum number of disadvantages. Plantronics and Jabra have many similar characteristics. They produce more budget and universal ones, for talking on the street, while driving, etc.; A - slightly more expensive models, with greater autonomy (well suited for offices). But for the most part, many models are almost identical in quality (in total). All that remains is to select the necessary functional features, design, etc.

Eternal competition between Jabra and Plantronics:

Which headset is best for your phone?

Any of the Bluetooth headsets presented below will be suitable for your phone. , it is better to choose a Samsung headset, since some additional functions will be available only on this smartphone. If you need universal options, then these are again Jabra, Plantronics, etc. Jabra, for new models, releases convenient applications for controlling headsets via a smartphone.

After Jabra and Plantronics come:

• Samsung;
• Xiaomi;
• Sony;
• Nokia;

• Remax;

Bluetooth headset for iPhone smartphones:

Wireless Bluetooth headset for iPhone

These are in-ear headphones

Apple doesn't make Bluetooth mono headsets, but only that. There are, of course, other models, but they are, to put it mildly, unsuccessful and we will not touch on them. Airpods are perfect as a wireless Bluetooth headset for iPhone. This is an improved version of Earpods, and also wireless. The functionality is very convenient and the sound quality is excellent. Airpods can be used both as a mono headset (there is a separate mode for the 1st earphone) and a stereo headset for music. The headphones made a lot of noise, but still lived up to expectations. The only negative is the price of $220. 😐

In my personal opinion, despite all the innovative features, the headphones are not worth the money.

Mini wireless Bluetooth headset - for phone:

Mini Bluetooth headset

A wireless mini Bluetooth headset for a phone is the same micro-earphone or just a miniature headset. The smallest and highest quality mono headsets are produced by Jabra. Below are several models that are miniature in design.

If you are looking for an almost invisible headset for a special operation 😀, but you need a micro earpiece. Unfortunately, it does not have a voice transmission function, but the reception works fine. Here's the whole one.

Stereo Bluetooth headset (headphones) - for music:

Jabra BT2035 wireless headset - lightweight and compact

• Sound. The headset reproduces and transmits sound in very good quality.
• Comfortable fit. Weight only 8 grams!
• Enough profitable price for such a device.
• Functional. There is a volume button! Supports: Multipoint, auto volume adjustment, DSP, repeat last issue. There is a noise canceler in the microphone.

Minuses:

• This headset does not boast a particularly capacious battery. 192 hours of standby time, up from 200 hours on the previous small model.
• The call button is too sensitive, which is often accidentally pressed in your pocket or with your headdress (the last number is dialed).

Wireless headsets are more often used for conversations over cellular network. The hand remains free, which provides comfortable conditions during a long conversation. And with bluetooth headphones, there is no inconvenience with wires. Before use wireless headphones, you need to pair with another device.

Ways to connect bluetooth headphones to your phone

Connecting wireless headsets is done in two ways: standard and advanced.

In the standard method, the connection is made through the settings menu of the mobile device. The user does not need to download third party applications, just activate the bluetooth headphones and confirm pairing. In this case, there is no access to some parameters provided by the headset manufacturer.

For extended connection, used proprietary utility headphone or smartphone manufacturers: Sony | Headphones Connect, Samsung Level and Motorola Connect. Such programs allow you to make advanced settings and know residual charge batteries. If the application is not pre-installed initially, you need to download it from the official website or the Google Play store.

Instructions on how to connect bluetooth headphones to your phone in the standard way

1. Open your phone settings and select bluetooth.
2. In the new window, switch the switch to the active state. After turning on the wireless module, the smartphone will begin scanning active devices nearby. Search time is limited, most often does not exceed 90-105 seconds. If the headset is not detected, the module will go into standby mode and you will have to reconnect.
3. When the phone searches for new devices, the discovery mode should be activated on Bluetooth headphones. The manufacturer is responsible for implementing the mode, most often this is a long press of the power button for 3-5 seconds. There are headphone models that use a short hold – 2-3 seconds.
4. Pay attention to the power indicator. When the headphones are turned on in detection mode, the LED flashes quickly and sometimes alternates between two colors. When turned on normally, the diode blinks 3-4 times less often.
5. If the headphones are included in the “detection window” of the smartphone, the name of the headset will appear on the screen. You need to select an accessory and enter the password in the window that appears - 0000. This is a standard combination for most bluetooth headsets.
6. Further connection does not require re-detection of the headphones. Just turn on the power of the headset and bluetooth in the device settings. The exception is if the headphones are connected to a new phone.

Instructions on how to connect bluetooth headphones to your phone in an advanced way

As an example, consider a connection using the Motorola Connect app and Motorola Surround headphones. Pairing other accessories with similar applications is carried out according to the instructions below.

1. Download and launch the Motorola Connect app on mobile device, if the program is not installed.
2. Turn on the headphones, and in the program, click on the “+” button to add a device.
3. The application will ask you to turn on bluetooth, for which the corresponding settings item will open. The user just needs to flip the switch and return back to the program.

The headphones are ready to use. To reconnect, just turn on the headset and activate bluetooth. The application will report the connection status, and also allow you to find out the remaining battery capacity and the location of the accessory.

Important! The Motorola Connect application or analogues from other manufacturers contain limitations. Requires a device with Android 4.3 or higher. It is also allowed to connect only the accessories specified in the list.

Conclusion

Connecting bluetooth headsets through a proprietary application is easier. Also available additional features, in the form of searching for headphones, viewing the remaining charge and some other settings. However, such programs are supported by a limited number of phone models, and an even smaller number of accessories. In this case, the connection should be made in a standard way through the phone settings menu.
