The Best Bluetooth Headset
LG Tone+ HBS 730
Approximately Rs. 1,500
The Tone+ is not the most discreet headset you're going to find, but it is comfortable, has great battery life, and its design lets you keep stow the earbuds conveniently without having to keep it in your ears all the time, making it a good all-day option.
The neckband looks bulky but is very light, and we quickly forgot that we were wearing it. The earbuds are attached to the ends of the neckband, and held in place with magnets, which is a pretty convenient design. The battery life is pretty good too - LG claims 17 hours of talktime - we charged it every three days or so.
The headset has an MRP of Rs. 4,999 but we've seen the price drop several times to Rs. 1,299; it is currently available online for Rs. 1,499, which is a pretty good price for this headset.
Nokia BH 505
Approximately Rs. 2,900
The Nokia BH 505 is also a neckband, but unlike the LG Tone+, it has a rigid body design, and the earpiece doesn't detach from the main body. The design means that the fit is firmer than that of the LG Tone+, and if you're looking for something you can wear while you jog, this might be a better option - the Tone+ can bounce around even when running down the stairs. Its battery life is pretty reasonable - Nokia claims a 10 hour battery life - and the audio quality for calls and other media was good.
For the price (currently available at Rs. 2,899) this headset is a good option, and both this and the LG Tone+ are more comfortable than mono-headsets in the same price band.
Sony DR-BTN 200
Approximately Rs. 5,000
A slightly more expensive option, the Sony DR-BTN 200 is a small over the ear headset that is really comfortable to wear. The headset sounds great, and if you want to use the headphones for something like TV watching, then this is a good option. It's very comfortable and for indoor use, the battery life of four and a half hours is not bad either.
While its MRP is Rs. 8,000, the Sony DR-BTN 200 is available for Rs. 5,093 online at present rate.
