Recommendation: BlueAnt Q2 Bluetooth Headset

Hi,

It have been quite some time since my last post. Was busy preparing for the launching of our web store. Anyway, I am back again to blog. As above topic, today I would like to recommend a bluetooth headset that I am currently using. The best unit I have use so far.

While most people do not likes to use a bluetooth headset even if they are driving (not only cause danger to ourself but to others too), I prefer to use one. Reason being using a BT headset will get me out of trouble with the cops. I hate it when I got stopped and being summoned for talking on the phone while driving.

We discussed about using BT a while ago, and for those who missed the topic, click here.

So, some info about BlueAnt Q2 BT headset.

Also called a " Smart Bluetooth Headset" with HD Audio. BlueAnt Q2 is the Bluetooth headset filled with rich audio, unsurpassed call clarity and industry best wind noise reduction. This is the best sounding Bluetooth headset ever built. It's because BlueAnt engineers designed the Q2 by selected the best audio components, precision tuned and tested in a professional sound studio.

Aside, this smart Bluetooth headset is distinguished. It's includes a comprehensive voice recognition command set, text to speech technology that announces the name of incoming caller. Aside, BlueAnt had developed a SMS readout application for Android OS to enhance the products features. The application is free for download in Google Play Shop.

Just to Share - Bluetooth Headset -








Question: What is a Bluetooth Headset?

Answer: It's a headset that connected to your mobile phones over low-frequency radio waves in the 2.4GHz range. No cables or wires are needed, and the only requirement is that both devices be Bluetooth compatible.


Some samples of BT headsets in the market.

Too Complex? Here the simple term. "Bluetooth headset is a device that enable you to speak on the phone without holding your phone" 




 


Problem is, many of us are aware what a Bluetooth headset is, but how many of us are using it? On the road, we still can see many people are driving and using their mobile phone at the same time. This violates the law and many end up paying for the summons or "settling out of the court". 
  1. The benefits of these hands-free, wireless devices are obvious, particularly in the wake of state and local laws that require the use of a headset while driving. Just ask around and see how many people got a summon for talking while driving? An entry BT model costs less than RM100 but a summon can easily cost you RM150 - RM300. Which is cheaper? You do the maths.
  2. It's a safer way to talk while driving. While driving it keeps your hands on the wheel and not plastered to your ear, personally I DO NOT recommend this except in emergencies, but I know many people are going to do this so at least it is safer than having one hand on the wheel. But please remember driving is difficult enough without any distractions so the more things you try to do the more dangerous it becomes.
  3. Convenience. When you are making business (or personal) calls you are free to roam around the house or office to be more productive, if your are calling somewhere that puts you on hold (for the next available agent) without a Bluetooth you tend to sit around waiting for a extended period of time, being unproductive, but try this with a Bluetooth wireless headset.
Those are some of the advantages of using a bluetooth headset. For more advantage, you can google around and you will be surprise what a BT headset can do. Remember technology is a great thing and can save you a lot of time if used wisely so take advantage of any product that can make your quality of life better; this is why I do recommend a Bluetooth wireless headset.


Hi, This is David, I am using a bluetooth headset too.
