The Pitch: Motorola has packed a lot of capability into its H15 headset. Dual microphones and Motorola’s improved CrystalTalk technology offer best-in-industry noise cancellation, even managing to almost completely squash wind noise. The H15 can be actively connected to and working with two different Bluetooth devices at one time (two phones, one phone and a PC, and so on), and its unique foldable microphone boom can power on the headset and answer a call in one fell swoop — making standby battery life almost a non-issue. The H15 uses what Moto calls a TrueComfort design, and it sells for $129.
Pros: It is the best performing Bluetooth headset I have ever tried, besting the Jawbones and everything else on the market. Truly remarkable sound quality, even in windy and super noisy conditions. Nothing else comes close. Being able to power on the headset and answer a call in one quick flip of the microphone boom is very handy, too.
Cons: In spite of Motorola’s claims to the contrary, the H15 is not comfortable for all people. I’m one of them. Lucky thing that it can be kept sitting on a desk, powered off, and still be used effectively.
Recommendation: The Plantronics 925 might be one of the most comfortable headsets on the market, but the Moto H15 out performs all comers when it comes to sound. This is the best noise-canceling Bluetooth headset available today, and it deserves to be considered in the next round of LGS, even if I don’t find it to be all that comfortable.
