Review: Motorola H500 Bluetooth

Motorola enjoys a cult status when it comes to Bluetooth devices and this latest entrant is no exception. It is attractively priced with the price conscious customer in mind. It comes in four different colors :ice, Magenta, Nickel and Pink. Motorola H500 Bluetooth comes in the dimensions of 2.28 x 1.06 x 0.87 inches and it weighs 0.55 ounces. Motorola H500 Bluetooth can be recharged either through an adaptor or with it's built in USB cable outlet by connecting it to a computer.

Credit goes to Motorola as it has come up with many colors for this particular headset and for the sleek design. Though it may resemble HS820, it is unique in many ways. Its shiny cap adds the charm to the sleek exterior design. It is well crafted with a USB outlet at the top and two volume adjustable keys are present one at the top and the other at the bottom which could easily adjusted with the thumb itself. The tip of this headset contains the mic and the LED at the top adds to its style. The earpiece is designed to channelize the incoming sound. The strain it puts on the ear is very minimal and it can be used all day without any hindrance. It has a built in Bluetooth class 2 radio adding to its versatility. It works almost with every Bluetooth enabled phone in the market. To make this headset work, first turn off the head set, and then press the multi function button until the LED light turns solid blue. And after entering the default code of "0000" the headset would be compatible with the handset and when a call comes in both the headset and the handset rings making it easy.

This Motorola H500 Bluetooth may not have the noise cancellation software like its cousin H700. But the voice clarity is indeed good making it one of the most sought after headphones in the market.

The incoming voice quality was excellent in all the phones tested, but the handset did not deliver the same uniform clarity in outgoing calls and it was different in different phones. The major breakthrough in this headset is its ability to keeping the noise level to the minimum for both the incoming and outgoing calls.
