Question
Hello, i just got my sister's motorola krazor, motokrzr K1m.  but i didn't like the sound of the bluetooth she bought from verizon. i also don't want to send a lot of money. it is possible to get a good sounding one without paying allot of money. my son recommended platronics. but they have all different prices. i would like one that hangs over your ear instead of the ear bug in the ear. any help would be great.  i would like to spend under $50.00

Answer
There are many, many bluetooth headsets on the market. The better ones all cost around $100.00. I don't recommend Plantronics for cell phones. They are great for cordless phones, but not so great for cell phones. The best bluetooth headsets in my opinion, are by Blue Ant, Jawbone and Motorola and Jabra. Motorola has many that are around $50.00. They have many that have a piece that goes around your ear and it doesn't go into your ear canal. I would suggest going to Best Buy or if you have a Fry's Electronics, try there and look at the Motorola headsets. That is your best bet, in my opinion for the price you are looking at. Thanks.
