 Motorolla headset HS850 August 11, 2008
C. Ready (Seattle, WA)
It works just fine. The head set is extremely light but also a bit large and therefore feels cheap and like it will fall off your head any minute. I'm concerned about it's longevity and practical functionality. Light can be great but not if the thing is flapping against your head. I'm a much bigger fan of the H700 series or better yet the H710. Much better device but you'll pay more for it.
 Battery Life Anyone? July 20, 2008
W. Lancaster (Atlanta)
I got this as a gift from a friend and it worked wonderfully for about 3 months. The battery kept dying on me more quickly every time I used it, now it won't even hold a charge and has been since allocated to a worthless item on my desk. I may have gotten a bad apple out of the bunch but that's my story...
 WONDERFUL!!!! May 22, 2008
AJ'S MOM (NY USA)
I purchased this as a gift for my husband, and I have to say we are both very impressed. No echo, great charge life. 99% of the time when he calls me using the blue tooth I can not even tell it is on. Sounds very crisp and clear.
Pretty good but happy with an upgrade April 12, 2008

Well I am on my second HS850 - the first was a gift and the second I bought to replace the first one whose batteries I had exhausted. Well I ordered the black one from a vendor on Amazon (the order confirmation even said black) but when it arrived it was silver and I was pretty disappointed. To make this short the vendor never responded and Amazon did a good job of refunding me the cost and since the vendor did not respond I kept the item - well it is great, just like the first one.
* No one can ever tell they are on a headset
* I used the first one to death and it was so comfortable that I was more than willing to get a second one just wanted a new color to change it up
* Not only does this pair effortlessly with my cell phone(s) but it works great with Skype and my home cordless phone system (Uniden ELBT - This is a great system that I do not think is made anymore but the handsets can be paired with a BT head set so you can cook dinner, do dishes, etc. and talk)
* Well after the let down of not getting a black HS850 I wound up getting a H700 in royal blue - this one is signfigantly smaller than the 850 but the audio clarity is not quite as good (that is my only complaint) however I use this one solely with my cell(s) in a rather noisy car (sports cars are just that and far from a luxury liner)
* In the house the H700 wins simply because it is smaller and easier to use/gague the battery status (has a led that changes color) - the sound quality is fine as long as I am not driving around.
* Both are easy to pair with my cell, laptop/skype, and home phone system so no complaints there - the only quirk seems to lie in one of my cell phones - the BT needs to be reset (soft reset of phone) sometimes to make the BT connect.....
* In the end I like the H700 for its smaller size and slightly easier use but in the end both are great products; the HS850 tends to be a bit heavier on my ear after a while but the H700 is tighter so both rub or are weighty after awhile on the phone but other than that no complaints about either though I would probably go for the 700 next time I need a new one.
 defective product March 8, 2008
V. Jain (Dallas,TX)
The product arrived on time but was defective. I was unable to pair it with my blackberry or my motorazr. The unit would not shut off even after the boom was closed. I emailed DBroth who asked me to get in touch with customer support in Motorola. There I went through the trouble shooting steps and was advised to return the product.
The service was prompt though and refunded my full amount paid.
