Blue tooth headsets

The 350xt blue parrot has to many quirks. I got a Plantronics voyager legend and love it

Bluetooth In-Ear Headphones TaoTronics Wireless Sweatproof Sport Earphones Earbuds (Bluetooth 4.1, Balanced Audio, Build-in Mic, aptX, CVC 6.0 Noise-Cancelling)-Black
for 26.00

I like this one from taotronics. It will bluetooth to 2 different devices at one time. I use it when on the road for bluettooth headset and listen to music at the same time.

At home, I connect it to my tv through a bluetooth dongle transmitter ( which costs about 15 bucks) and my phone. This way I can listen to the tv in bed without disturbing my wife who goes to sleep much earlier.

 

Anyone know where to buy replacement ear pads and mic covers for the BP 250xt (besides online like here)? You only get one replacement set in the box and I'm hell on losing them.

 

Have you tried eBay? Sometimes you can find stuff like that on there cheap or in bulk

 

A year later and it's still $50 less than Amazon. Thanks.

 

another plantronics voyager legend here. no complaints.

 

Question for the Blue Parrot users: how long is the average lifespan of one of those units?

 

I've had my 250 for over three years. It still works, but the boom mic feels like it's almost ready to fall off, and lately it seems like I need to have the mic almost touching my lips or people tell me it sounds bad. The battery is still great, though. I charge it maybe once a week to ten days.

I've been having some pairing issues with my iPhone, especially since iOS 10, so I guess it's time to update. I was looking at the blue tiger, mostly because of cost. I was doing a little searching here and found the post and link above, so I ordered a 350 this morning.

 

Thanks, I was curious. Being the cheapskate I am, I've been using Taotronics ones I've been getting off Amazon for a few years now. For about $25, I've been able to get about a year's worth of use out of them, then time to order another. I've been eyeballing the Blue Parrots simce a coworkwr got one, but I can't make that leap yet. Now I'll have to check out these Blue Tigers as well.

 

Blue Parrot is the only way to go. Plantronics makes awesome headsets in the office world but nobody can touch Blue Parrot's noise cancellation.
