I have a Blue Parrot B250-XT. They are heavier, I don't believe it noise cancels as well as the older models did. The battery will last a long time. It will work on my phone to set an alarm, esp if I have misplaced the phone once again.
I also bought the Playtronics brand PLT-Legend. It has the piece which is the size of old hearing aids. The battery life is exactly 7 hrs if you are on it. I do like it because it is lighter weight. I put a cord like you use with glasses on it so I can attach it to my glasses and if it falls off, which it is easy to do moving around the house, it just dangles then. It is supposed to be moisture proof, I have worn it working in the yard sweating a whole bunch and it didn't bother it, but I don't want to try it out in the kitchen sink or other water sources. The only thing I don't like is the charger cord is only about maybe 7" long; you have to have a plugin spot and a flat place for it to lay on. It is easy to turn the mute on and off, it will notify you if you have the mute on still after a period of time You can only call back the last number you called, I can't get it to pull up Bixby on my Samsung 8 or any other phone number. It does do pretty good on voice typing for messages though, but this is only after you pull the menu up on the phone. It supposed to be good for a distance of about 35' the best I can remember. I bought it at Walmart.

I was big supporter of the Blue Tiger.. great headset.. but even with their replacement plan I was calling for a 4th one in less than 5 years...
So don't go that route.
Had a Blue Parrott 250 previously and it lasted 3+ years.
I just purchased a BP 350.. so we'll see. -
5200 Works well.
Personally I like my CB with bluetooth.stacks Thanks this. -
I had a Blue Parrot 250 . Noise canceling is outstanding.
I had it on talking to dispatch while standing by a running gas engine on a operating grain auger at a farm . I could hear just fine. Dispatcher couldn’t hear the noise at all.
Just got a new 350 model.stacks Thanks this. -

Blue Parrot, mine has been going strong 3 years now with no problems
stacks Thanks this. -
I highly recommend this one from Amazon. If you have problems just call Amazon for a replacement. You can also listen to music on it. For $20.00 it’s worth a try. Good noise canceling mic. I’m partially deaf, and it’s loud enough for me.
