Over the years I have used Bluetooth headsets with my cell phones and while some have been OK none have really hit the mark. The last one in this line was a Jawbone that while it worked well from the audio standpoint; it was somewhat uncomfortable to wear and had the anoying habit of working loose from my ear.

Now comes the new Bose Bluetooth Headset, Series 2. It has been in my ear most of the day and is both comfortable – I almost forgot I had it on and headed for the car where I already have Bluetooth connectivity – and has not once even felt loose. The call quality is top notch on both ends plus the technology in the headset does a great job of cancelling out background noises. It even has technology that adjusts the volume level to compensate for outside noises. In a marked departure from other headsets that I have used the headset comes in either right ear or left ear configurations and might well be the reason that it fits so well. There are three different sized earpieces that come with the unit to further customize the fit.

I purchased mine directly from Bose as they offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. The ability to return the headset if it did not work out – I have enough of them in the drawer – was a prime consideration in deciding on purchasing the item directly from Bose. With a price of $149.95 the headset is at the top end price wise, but then none of the other top end Bluetooth headsets are bargain basement specials either.
