Q1 Bluetooth Headset

 

The Q1 from BlueAnt Wireless comes with an incredibly useful voice-control helper, which is unique to the Q1 and to its cousin, the BlueAnt V1. The $130 (as of 5/6/09) Q1 is an addition to the BlueAnt product family; it does not replace the V1.

Voice-controlled interface is a breeze to use Main control button delivers tactile feedback

Call quality is all over the map Pricey

The Q1's integrated voice control is one of this headset's greatest features. If your cell phone supports speed dialing and you'd like to handle calls using your voice a lot of the time, consider the Q1. Be prepared for inconsistent call quality, though

BlueAnt Q1 Bluetooth Headset review: BlueAnt Q1 Bluetooth Headset

 

BlueAnt Q1 Bluetooth Headset

The BlueAnt Q1 is a slim and stylish Bluetooth headset with an innovative voice user interface that lets you control the headset entirely with your voice. There's no voice recognition tutorial, and the audio quality is very good.

The voice controls on the BlueAnt Q1 sometimes would not work properly if the alignment is off or if you're in a particularly noisy environment. It takes some fiddling to fit the headset properly.

Despite a few minor issues, the BlueAnt Q1's voice controls and good audio quality sets this apart from other headsets.

BlueAnt Q1

 

Voice tests were a mixed bag. On my end of the conversation, the Q1 sounded fine, with a solid amount of gain and a smooth tone. Unfortunately, my voice sounded processed on the other end, both to other callers and in voice-mail tests. Compared with...

Attractive, minimalist style. Voice-controlled user interface. Effective noise canceling

Processed, unnatural voice timbre heard at the other end. Occasional UI glitches. Poor battery life

The voice-controlled BlueAnt Q1 is a looker and a solid effort from a company that's fast gaining ground with its line of Bluetooth headsets—but the competition has moved further ahead still.

The sound quality is well above average but I feel that there could be a little more volume for loud environments. The Android application integration is a nice feature but doesn't seem to provide too much worth noting other than the handy text message...

Easy pairing with phone ; Listen to SMS text messages in-ear ; Hear turn-by-turn GPS navigation instructions ; Quick help tips, user manual, and access to customer service

Besides reading text messages in-ear, does not live up to the hype ; Does not read names of caller ID, yet reads the digits of the number ; App uses default Android's text to speech engine which sounds robotic ; Does not read back text messages from...
