Motorola H605 Bluetooth Headset review

Though Motorola has designed some impressive Bluetooth headsets in the past year, most, such as the H700 and the Razr H3 , have exhibited a typical headset-fitting style with a standard ear loop. The Motorola H605 takes a bold step in a new direction....

The Motorola H605 is easy to use and features tactile controls; a comfortable, behind-the-ear fit; and a flexible earbud.

The Motorola H605 may be a bit bulky for people with small ears. Also, while we heard callers just fine, they had problems hearing us.

The Motorola H605 Bluetooth headset is user-friendly and comfortable, but it's too bulky and has sketchy audio quality.

Motorola H605 Review

We could say that, Motorola has coped really well with the behind-the-ear headset design at its first attempt. The device attaches firmly and you feel comfortable wearing it even even after extended periods of time. The headset enables you to control...

Motorola H605 Amazing Discreet Headset

I would say that this is one that you must have. 1-10...........8

Very Discreet hiding behind your ear. Blends right in with my silver hoop earings. People don't even see it until the blue light flashes through the silver/chrome like finish at the base of the unit when you receive or make a call. Very light and very...

Better then most other ones i've tried before, but still not as clear as a wired headset.

Awesome Deal

Works with my Laptop! I can use it for online gaming chat and such. Also works easy with my Moto Rokr.

Didn't have a manual. It was easy to find a manual online though!

MOTOROLA H605 Bluetooth Headset

Nice price,light,clear sound,good fit. This is my 1st headset.I did not like the feel or fit of the H500 that my girl friend has.The H605 will stay on as I move and work round the house.The only time it all most fell off was when I was bending over to...

The buttons are on the top of the headset. And that makes it hard to get to when it is on your ear. The buttons should be on the side of the headset. After about one hour of use I find I have to move it to the other ear. I am not sure it is because of...

Nice fit, Huh, what did you say?

You'll sound like the teacher from the Charlie brown cartoons.

Fits on the ear very nicely. Great sound quality as long as the person on the other end isn't using a H605.

Absolutly horrible voice quality. No one that either my wife or I speak to with the headset can hear us.

MOTOROLA H605 Bluetooth Headset - OEM

Holds charge a long time thanks to "sleep" mode.

Stylish yet unobtrusive.Once you have it on you'll never worry about it falling off.Good volume in ear.

Bad sound on ""other end"".People say it sounds ""hollow"" like a speakerphone.

Good only in a quiet room

If only it had a noise cancelling microphone with a boom, this would be a nice headset then.

Great fit, will not fall off. Good receive volume and clarity. Easy to operate

This headset picks up EVERY background sound. In a quiet car (04 Acura TL) it is simply not usable. Even the voice recognition in the phone can not understand what you are saying. I left myself a voice mail to confirm, and I must say, it's not...
