Best Bluetooth Headphones

by distancesprinter Oct 15, 2010 6:05AM PDT

Can somebody refer me to reviews for, or recommend a specific model of Bluetooth headphones?

To be clear, these should be headphones, not headsets. If it's possible to be used as a headset, that's fine, but these are to be primarily used for listening to music from my phone.

I'm not using an iPhone, instead just an Android phone, but it is AD2P compatible.

Thanks

Plantronics is best.

I have had two pair of behind-the-head bluetooth headphones. The first pair was a model by Southwing sold by AT&T. They sounded very good but got uncomfortable after about an hour of wear. The pair I have now is made by Plantronics but has Altec-Lansing's name on them, also sold by AT&T. They are called Backbeat. Online u can only find them on Plantronics website, not Altec-Lansings. They sound better, more comfortable, & isolate sound better.

Bluetooth Headphones

I would strongly recommend the Motorola S9 HD'S. They by far look the best out off all the different types out there. Be sure to go for the HD Version and not the standard S9 Though..... they can be purchased at Allthingswireless.co.uk (UK and European Customers only)
