When it comes to the world of Bluetooth headsets, Motorolas are among some of the best. Two such headsets are now on sale, giving you a great price on your choice of the Motorola Oasis or the Motorola H17txt.

Normally selling for $79.99, the Motorola Oasis is on sale for $44.86. This uniquely shaped Bluetooth headset has an extended boom with dual microphones, which is meant to provide better noice cancellation. There are audible prompts for when you are connected, as well as to tell you the phone is ringing and to provide you with the current battery level. Interestingly, it’s also possible to connect to two different phones at the same time, which is great for people who have both a business and a personal phone.

Alternatively, you can pick up the Motorola H17txt for $29.99, which is an impressive 70% off the regular retail price of $99.99. The “txt” part of the name indicates that this Motorola Bluetooth headset will read your text messages to you, including the name of the sender. It comes with multiple ear hooks for a customized fit and it features CrystalTalk dual mic technology to cancel background noise.

Sennheiser is a brand that takes its headphones seriously, just like anyone who may want to buy their products. However, prices are usually high for decent headphones worthy of satisfying a true audiophile, and there’s often no cheap alternative.

The Sennheiser MM 450 is a sturdy Bluetooth headset with noise cancellation, and right now, it’s a whopping 51% off. For its original price at $449 it’s still worth a buy; the headset is a perfect mix of comfort and portability.

The headset by default connects to devices via Bluetooth, however there is also a 3mm wire to plug into any ordinary audio jack, perfect for if you want to save battery between your devices, and even though in my opinion Bluetooth is ever more convenient, it’s nice to have the option presented at hand.

The headset also has a built in mic allowing you to hear and reply to any calls you may receive. As well as this, the Sennheiser MM 450 can turn noise cancellation on and off quickly and conveniently, and a handy feature called Talkthrough allows you to quickly filter out any music and let any outside noise be heard through your headphones.

There’s a lot more to the Sennheiser MM 450 Bluetooth headset, and for just $219.99 over at Amazon, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better deal.

When it comes to the world of Bluetooth headsets, one of the most trusted names in the industry is Plantronics. And now you can get one of their better Bluetooth headsets for quite the impressive price.

You see, the Plantronics Voyager Pro HD normally retails for $99.99, but that price has been slashed by $40 down to just $59.99. In signature Plantronics style, the Voyager Pro HD has a slightly longer boom microphone than what you may find on some competing devices. This means that the clarity of your voice should be improved, as the mic is closer to your mouth. The headset also boasts “brilliant, HD streaming audio.”

Since the headset is going to be on the side of your head, you might not notice that it’s running out of battery. The cool thing is that Plantronics has an app for iOS and Android that lets you remotely monitor the battery on your headset. Speaking of battery, you should get up to 6 hours of talk time and up to 120 hours of standby. It’s also nice how it can “sense” when you’re wearing it.

Who said all Bluetooth headsets had to look the same? The Plantronics Discovery 975 is one of the more unique headsets I’ve seen and it just so happens to be on sale for 58% off the regular price.

Really, it’s the design of the Plantronics Discovery 975 Bluetooth headset that will catch your attention first. There is this square portion attached to the ear gel for a comfortable fit, and then you have an extended boom microphone to better pick up your voice when you’re on a call. But there’s more tech in there that you don’t really see too.

For example, this comes with dual-mic AudioIQ2 technology that is designed to cancel background noise and provide for superior clarity. There’s also a handy carrying case with an LCD display that doubles as a charging station, allowing you to triple your talk time when you’re on the go. QuickPair technology makes pairing easier too, plus the multipoint technology means you can pair it with more than one Bluetooth device at the same time.

I say it’s pretty slick and at just $54.98 on Amazon with free shipping (that’s $75.01 off the regular price of $129.99), the Plantronics Discovery 975 is a pretty good deal too.

You know how when you go out with your friends on your bicycles you can’t communicate with each other because the traffic is too loud? Well, a Swedish wireless tech company, called Free2Move, designed a Bluetooth communications system specifically for cyclists.

HIOD One consists of an arm-mounted voice module with hard-wired earphones and microphone and a wrist-mounted control module. With this new technology, cyclists can talk to their friends as long as they are no farther than 400 meters away.

The HIOD is powered by rechargeable lithium-polymer battery, which works for around ten hours of talk time. Any cyclist can stay in contact with up to five other riders through the HIOD system, but only one at a time. The system requires users to be in clear line of sight, which could be difficult for mountain bikers, for example.

While rider-to rider is the main purpose of the HIOD, it can also be used to make and receive phone calls from connected mobile phones or to stream music.

The HIOD One is not available for purchase in general stores yet, but Free2Move is currently looking for interested parties who may want to buy or sell it.

Bluetooth headsets are pretty useful, especially if you’re in one of those places where handheld cell phones are illegal while driving. That said, it can be pretty annoying when your call gets routed to the headset when said headset is on your desk rather than on your ear. The new Plantronics Voyager Pro UC fixes that.

You see, this otherwise run-of-the-mill Bluetooth headset is a little smarter than that, thanks to the inclusion of capacitive sensors. These detect whether the headset is actually attached to the side of your head.

Assuming you’re already paired with your phone, the call will then go through to the headset if it detects you’re wearing it. If it detects that you’re not wearing it, the call will go through on your actual cell phone as per normal instead. Even if you put the headset on in the middle of a call, it will reroute the audio that way too. Pretty nifty.

That’s assuming that it works as advertised. Plantronics hasn’t announced pricing yet, but they’ll probably have that information at CES in January.

Whether you’re hitting up the gym or going outside for a run, you probably want to have some tunes on hand. At the same time, you don’t want to deal with wires and cables. The Motorola S10-HD lets you handle both in style with a sporty wraparound design.

In terms of functionality, this Bluetooth headset is pretty much standard. You pair it up with your chosen stereo Bluetooth device and it’ll pump those tunes into your eardrums without wires. The wrap-around-the-neck design helps to keep it in place while your head bobs up and down during the cardiovascular activity of choice. What sets the S10-HD apart, though, is that it is “designed to withstand all sorts of sweat beads.” Go ahead and drench it in your sweat. They say it won’t skip a beat. Recessed speakers, hydrophobic acoustic mesh, and silicon seals were used in the making to protect the electronic components from the salty wet stuff. And yes, it’ll take phone calls too.

Look for these to drop at your local Best Buy on October 24 for $79.99.

Blueant Q2 Wireless Bluetooth Headset

Blueant’s new Q2 bluetooth wireless headset may not be as crystal clear as having a person next to you, buts its claiming to be the closest out there.  1.5 years after the Q1 was released, Bluant has revealed the new Q2, and if it all works out as they have planned, the wait will well worth it.  Aside from having superior noise reduction, The Q2′s state-of-the-art TTS (text to speech) engine will read out weather, news, sports, traffic updates and Microsoft’s Bing 411.  The Q2 will also say who is calling you so you will not have to pick up your phone.  When you get a call you simply say “ignore” or “answer and to make a call you simply say “phone commands.”  If you are lucky enough to own an Android 2.0 smartphone or newer, the Q2 will actually read out SMS messages and E-mails for you! The Q2 features integrated A2DP streaming audio functionality, so you can listen to music, and get turn by turn directions from your GPS. Even better, you can even stream music from a bluetooth enabled computer to your phone. If you own a business, you can connect up to two phones and answer whichever one is ringing, and switch between phones and calls if both ring at the same time. The Q2 sells for $129 at AT&T.
