Strengths: Long range, light weight, long battery life, easy setup, device compatibility
Weakness: Audio quality, fit on the ear
I've had this Motorola HS850 Bluetooth headset for a few days now and am generally pleased with it. This is the very latest generation of Moto's headsets and doesn't suffer from some of the weaknesses others have reported about earlier incarnations, specifically the transmission range. While users of previous generations complained that they had to keep the phones in their pocket in order to...
Strengths: Battery life, turns on quickly
Weakness: Same as all bluetooth headsets. People have trouble hearing me, I have trouble hearing them.
Walking around the house this is great! You flip open the boom and it's on...not much of a wait at all. It's light and comfortable. If I'm in the car with all the road noise, I have some trouble hearing. And if you turn the volume up all the way, its too much for the tiny speaker. It distorts and rattles.
Strengths: Weight, battery life, easy setup, and device compatibility should be given, they are not weaknesses here but are definitely not strengths either.
Weakness: Poor comfort and terrible sound quality give a well-known brand a black eye (and sore ear)
I purchased this headset at the Verizon store along with my brand new Treo 700p and was very excited to finally have bluetooth. This first experience has been so poor that after the 5th day of use I went back to using my old jabra wired headset that I have used with my Treo 600 for a couple of years. I have now done some reading and educated myself more on these headsets, and clearly there are...
Strengths: Lightweight, small size, comfortable, long battery life, charges quickly, excellent voice quality-both incoming and outgoing, ease-of use, universal Motorola charger
Although I have not tried similar units, I highly recommend this unit. I bought one for myself and my wife, so I've experienced both calls I make as well as heard the voice quality when my wife uses hers. I've had the BlueTooth headset for about a month now and have gotten to experience it's pro's and con's. The 850 is an excellent choice, and I had considered an 810, and an 820. The advantage of...
Strengths: Sound Quality/Responsiveness
Weakness: Power Saving Features
Do not buy this headset if you are wanting to use it with the Treo 650. If you do, the headset take about 8-12 seconds to connect and most people will hang up by then. I thought it was the headset but after dumping the new Treo and getting a Motorola A1000 phone, I can say, "I love this headset!". The convenience is immeasurable. Touch the button on the side once for voice-dialing, automatically...
Strengths: Very clear, Holds it's charge well, Comfortable - stays on your ear
Weakness: None
I have an 810 and purchased this 850 for my wife. It is a better unit than the 810 in that it is clearer and it holds a charge much longer. My wife uses her 850 at work and wears it almost all day. It is comfortable for her but so is the 810. They are both good products and if one needs a longer charge on the unit, the 850 is the one to purchase.
Strengths: Very good Bluetooth connectivity Very comfortable on the ear, I sometimes forget that I'm wearing it. Very good battery life. I have never experienced a low battery condition.
Weakness: Like most Bluetooth headsets, the volume isn't loud enough to hear easily when in a noisy environment. The volume controls work well, but I can't imagine anyone would want to turn the volume down.
Overall, I am very pleased with this unit. It is very comfortable and the ear mounting system is the best I've tried. It has never fallen off. I sometimes wear it along with my sun glasses, and even a hat. Except for the average earpiece volume, I would rate this unit at 5 stars.
Strengths: Lightweight and easy to sync up to any of my bluetooth devices. I can use it to listen to things I have recorded on my Dell Axim.
Weakness: Sometimes it will garble a persons name during speed dial. It loses signal and the battery goes weak on me in under 30 minutes of use on some occassions.
I would recommend this headset but with some notes to future buyers. If you carry it in the carrying case, try to keep it in a position that will keep you from putting pressure on the side of the case. I believe this has been my problem with battery life. If you put pressure on the side of the case, the bluetooth light will come on. Constant pressure equals the unit being on a lot. Another thing...
Strengths: Excellent Battery Life, Light Weight, Quick Connection
Weakness: Struggling to find something... maybe, a visual Battery Strength meter would be nice. But the battery life is so good it's not really a concern.
No one on the other end realizes I'm on a headset. Very compact, light, and well-designed. I purchased a Euro version and use my v551 charger since I live in the US. Had no problems. Note that if you use this with a BT v1.2 device, the call quality and battery life will drastically improve for not only the BT headset but also the BT phone.

The HS850 handles common tasks, including voice dialing, redialing, and putting calls on hold. As with most Bluetooth headsets, headset and hands-free modes are both supported. <p>The HS850 could use a stronger maximum volume, and it was more receptive to wind noise than most. Users’ voices sounded slightly muffled, but not unacceptably so. Noise canceling in our background music tests was...

Worth it!
Strengths: Works Great
Weakness: Doesn't fit in carry pouch
The Motorola HS850 bluetooth headset with pouch is a great unit. Easy to set up with my Nokia 6270. Does kill the battery on my phone a lot faster when using bluetooth. Not the headset's fault though. I was disappointed that the headset does not fit in the accompanying Motorola pouch that came with the unit. Good buy overall!
