subject: Comfortable Bluetooth Headsets [print this page] Years ago, no one knew what a Bluetooth headset was, but today almost everyone in America owns 1-2 pairs each. In some ways, owning one of these headsets have become necessary as part of our daily lives. New laws are being passed to make it illegal to operate a vehicle and to be on the phone at the same time. Talking on the cell phone causes a ton of accidents, which are evident in statistical findings of car accidents. Policemen are giving out fines for whoever they see driving and on their cell phone. These people who haven't learn their lesson will learn shortly as they will pay a hefty fine.
Remember that you might be wearing these headsets for long periods of time, so be sure to find a headset that will be comfortable to your needs. You could buy a Bluetooth headset that provides all the functionalities and features you could need or want, but I guarantee you that you will not use it if it isn't comfortable. I have 3 different headsets that I store away because they were heavy on my ears, which caused me a lot of earache. Make sure this is high on your priority list.
Headsets have ear buds that may not fit you so well, so be sure to find one that will allow you to switch out the ear gel for something that will fit you. Be weary of headsets that assume everyone should use the same ear piece. I assure you that it may work well for a small percentage of people buying it but for those that have a bigger or smaller ear hole opening, it will pose a big problem (annoyance of not staying in or too big causing ear pain).
Consider buying headsets that wrap around your ears if you want connect with your phone/pc/etc to listen to music. If you want to wear them for long periods of time, you may want to consider ones that look like headphones. They would be as comfortable as regular headphones.
Finally, if you don't like to wear them on your ear, there are different types out there that will suit your taste. A popular alternative is one that is worn like a pendant around the neck. Most people love this choice because there is also an ear bud extension that retracts.
