Selecting Bluetooth Headset

 There are a couple things to think about prior to selecting a new Bluetooth headset. Here are a couple of the items that I look at when researching new Bluetooth headsets to purchase

• Wear Style 
• When thinking about the different wear styles for Bluetooth headsets you have a couple options. When making these decisions think about how you will be using the headset and which option is the best secure fit for your needs. Everyone is different, I have different earbuds for different activities. 
• Earbud (In-Ear) - these style earbuds sit directly in the ear and kinda lock into place. I have noticed these work great for everyday use (sitting, walking, daily). Also, look to see if the earbuds have a cushion or just simply sit in the ear canal. 
• Over Ear - these style earbuds have a hook over the ear that secures the headset. I feel these work best for working out or outdoor activities. They offer a more secure fit than the average in-ear headset. 
• Over Head - these style headphones work for work, and workouts they just need to be a little bulky. I feel these headsets offer great sound quality and have good battery life. Some over-the-head options offer a wired connection in addition to the wireless option.
• Connectivity
• Something to think about is whether can you use the earbuds/headphones separately also known as mono or dual. Mono is when you can use one headset independently of the other headphone. Dual is when both headset/earbuds work together offering a better all-around sound quality
• Battery
• When using Bluetooth headsets the battery life is very important. A good thing to think about is that the earpiece lasts at least 4 hours during use. Also if the devices include a charging case to give you power on the go. A lot of headsets offer quick charge which means you can get an hour of playtime for just 15 minutes of charge time. 
• Brand
• Some people are brand specific. The big brand names sometimes have the best quality but if you research some non-name brands you may find the same qualities in non-name brands. 

The standard Bluetooth range is 30ft. Once you leave this range audio is choppy and breaks up.
