Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset – Small and stylish
Motorola is working hard to make its products smaller and this is clear from their products like the Motorola Slvr and Razr. Now it is applying this formula to Bluetooth headsets as well and the Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset is a good example of it. The device has a very basic design and it looks very much similar to Motorola HS850 but the H700 is 30 percent smaller. It is 1.69 inches (2.51 inches when you open the microphone boom) by 1.06 inches by 0.66 inches and weighs about 0.2 ounces which is really lightweight.
Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset has a pebble like design which doesn’t take up a lot of room in your pocket. The silver and gray color scheme also looks aesthetically appealing. Motorola offers this headset at $100 which is affordable but you can get it cheaper online.
The best feature on this Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset is the PowerFlip foldable microphone. Just like the HS850, the headset will get switched on automatically when you fold the boom mic out. Fold it inside and it will get switched off. Because of this, it is really easy to talk and hang up your calls. You just have to fold the headset up and down. The ear hook is reversible and gives good ergonomics. The ear piece will rest inside you ear and hence you will hardly realize that you are wearing it.
Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset has three buttons, in the middle, there is a bit multifunction button and on each side, you get a volume control button. The multifunction button is used for starting and ending the calls, it can also be used as a pairing button. It will glow blue when you switch it on. The buttons are easy to press but they are a bit small. On the top, you have the charger port.
In my lab tests, the used the Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset with Samsung SGH-D357 and Nokia 7380 and the pairing process was really fast. The phone calls were clear and loud but the quality could have been better in noisy environments. On their side, my friends said there were no problems. They were quite happy with the quality. Apart from the standard reject, end and answer calls, the Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset has call waiting, last number redialing, three way calling, voice dialing and you can also put a phone call on mute or hold.
For charging, Motorola is giving a standard charger for the Motorola H700 Bluetooth headset. But if you already use a Motorola cell phone, you can use a single adapter for charging both the phone and headset. The H700 has rated talk time of six hours and it stand by time is five days.
