O.P. Best bluetooth headset
At the moment I have a horribly crappy Chinese Bluetooth headset that I use a lot. It has horrible distance and it starts randomly cutting out even when my cellphone is in my pocket (under 1 meter distance, wit?)

Not to mention the sound quality isn't the best, and bass  isn't that prominent, but they are inear buds.

I'm looking for basically a headset that will actually work without me having to tilt my head a certain way to get a signal. I'd like the sound quality to be good as well.

Obviously this is for a phone so a headset rather than just headphones would be preferable. Additionally I will be using these while I do my cycling so a behind the head connection would be preferable to over the head.

Any suggestions?
Thanks :cheesy:

edit forgot to mention, stereo ofcourse :p

RE: Best bluetooth headset
i have a Plantronics Backbeat 903. its a behind the head stereo with earbud style headphones. great music quality, but the microphone for calls isn't the greatest. Battery lasts about 8h or so for music. Charges via micro USB, but at a low amperage. Anything over 500mA from pc USB might cook it. The included charger is 200 or 300mA afaik

Had a little chat off-site with MeEtc and it seems he has convinced me of the BackBeat 903 (+). I believe I'll give them a shot, for the price ($30, around the price I paid for my crap ones from a friend), I'd say I'd have nothing to lose, but my honor.

Thanks :bow:
