Editorial Reviews:

For a wireless-savvy cell phone user who demands superior performance and a good value, the Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset offers the best of both worlds. With a compact and comfortable handsome gray design the headset delivers longer talk times at a great price. This headset is both discreet and stylish, yet Motorola does not scrimp on functionality. The small size and lightweight construction allows for easy storage when not in use. Just slip the device in your pocket or toss it inside your glove box. Also, don't be fooled by the headsets good looks -- this petite powerhouse provides impressive battery power and an omni-directional microphone to clearly pick up your voice. The H500 features lengthy talk and standby times -- up to eight hours of talk time or 150 hours of standby time from a single full charge. And included with the headset is a handy, compact travel charger so you'll never run out of power on the go.

When you use your H500 for the first time, you must pair the headset with your phone. Once your phone recognizes the headset, the H500 is easy to operate -- simply press the multifunction button, place the headset on your ear, and a link is automatically established. The multifunction button allows you to control three-way calling, call start and end, hold, and mute, all with one click. And with Bluetooth wireless technology, the headset will work with any compatible device at a distance of up to 30 feet (10 meters) away. Don't stop with just your cell phone; consider pairing the H500 with your Bluetooth-enabled PC for great, hands-free Voice Over IP (VoIP) communications.

Designed for anyone, the adjustable, ergonomic earhook with improved back housing allows the headset to be worn on either the left or right ear. You can also easily control the volume or mute your call directly from the H500. This Motorola wireless accessory is compatible with any Bluetooth 1.2 enabled mobile phones or devices that support headset and hands-free profiles.

Summary: Unusable in Car
Comment: In acar, while driving around, the microphone quality is poor enough that voice recognition on the phone no longer works. So calls can not be made from a car. Even putting the microphone right up to my mouth does not work. Sometimes answering a call causes the speaker phone in the phone to activate. On those rare occasions when a call actually works it's very difficult to hear to person on the other end.

Summary: Great value!
Comment: I received my H500 from my daughter, because it didn't fit her ear well and she had to get a different one. It also doesn't fit her dad's ear, so comfort is more a matter of ear shape than the piece being intrinsically uncomfortable. It fits my ear perfectly and I love it! It's very lightweight, so I forget it's there, it has excellent sound, easy three-button operation, and I've just set it up for voice dialing, in honor of the new CA hands-free-while-driving law effective 7/1/08. I highly recommend the H500, but see if you can try before you buy.

Summary: Great price for a well made bluetooth
Comment: Bought it mainly for the price as a replacement to H350 that I lost. Liked the fact that the device isn't that big and that ear piece didn't have those flimsy plastic spacer like like other Moto bluetooth (foldable kind from the past that rips). Good voice quality and not a bad bluetooth to phone connectivity.

Summary: Good choice for the price
Comment: I only use my blue tooth device when driving, it was very important to me as my vehicle is manual transmission so you know... The only thing I don't like about this blue tooth, is that sometimes when I turn it on, it won't link with my cell phone (chances are 1/6), so turning it off and back on would work but, it doesn't convince me. It doesn't look "cute" but it does the job.

Summary: Overall a good buy for the price
Comment: I purchased mine in 2006 and it would still be working now if my daughter didn't spill water on it for the umpteenth time. When I first got it I have to admit it made my ear hurt but I realized that I had it turned down too far and once I pointed it upwards a little the discomfort went away.

I use it with a Palm Treo 700w and it has never given me a problem. It pairs everytime, volume is good indoors.

The only con I can see with it is that it is a little too sensitive to surrounding sounds. When outside, people usually hear the wind or cars way louder than me talking. Also, I usually have to mute my radio in the car because it picks that up loudly too.
