LOS ANGELES--(Business Wire)--
During the year since California and Washington enacted hands free driving laws,
Bluetooth headsets have seen significant advancements in call quality and
features. If you still don`t know what Bluetooth is - it`s a universal,
world-wide, wireless standard. If your phone is Bluetooth capable, you should be
able to connect to virtually any Bluetooth headset. If you`re thinking about
purchasing a headset for the first time or upgrading your current headset,
quality choices abound.
This is the only article that provides audio files of call quality in three
situations (with no background noise, wind, and music). However, a headset isn`t
just about sound; there`s a balancing act with usability, functionality, and
style. You may be willing to make sacrifices, but want to know exactly what
you`re sacrificing. With the enclosed audio and visual files, you can now judge
for yourself.
For your convenience, we`ve summarized Bluetooth headset features in a one-page
matrix. This article is organized as follows:
