Just wondering if anyone found/suggest a nice pair of Stereo Bluetooth headset that has a continuous playback of + 10hrs?  Here's the kicker though, I am looking for a pair that looks like the Motorola S9 or Nokia BH-505(behind the neck style) and cost less than $50.

So far, I found the over the head "cans" usually has more than 13hrs of playback, but I think they are  a bit too big for my taste.  Around the neck style fits me a bit more and I can use it when I go for a run or bike ride.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

I get 16-18 hours continuous playback out my four year old Motorola HT-820. Not quite as sleek as you are looking for. They are over the ear behind the neck headphones. I use them when I work out. They're pretty light, pretty tough and I thought they sounded amazing until I got my S-805.

Not as many sets out there anymore:

Perhaps I can move to Californ-i-ay and wrangle me a three-way with the Olsen twins.

I'm actually looking at the S805 as well, but I'm just wondering if it's a tad too bad to be wearing at the gym/running down the street.

I did not know the ht-820 last for 16hrs!!  I might have to take a look and see if that's what I want.  I like how the s9 or the nokia bh-505 can be worn with just one piece in the ear (a preferred set up at the office).

Thanks for the tip!

I tried to use my S-805 while working out once. It's kinda heavy for that but for walking, stair climber or other machines that you stay vertical and fairly stable it would work. Anything horizontal or if you are moving around more than you do when walking will drive you nuts.

My HT-820 on the other hand stays put no matter how much I move around and have just enough volume that I can use them when I mow my lawn but not so much that I can't always hear traffic when out on a run. But yeah, kinda hard to wear just on one side. Not legal while driving or riding here in Cali.

I used a Motorola S9 for some time and the sound was great! When I used the S9 the bluetooth audio system was emulated cause my phone was a Qtek Wizard (A9100), so if in a bluetooth 2.0 emulated the sound was great I think in a cell phone with native bluetooth 2.0 the sound will be wonderful  Smiley

If you're listening to headphones for more than 8 hours at a time, you'll be deaf soon. Shocked

The Motorola S-805, S-9 and HT-820 have built in microphone and support both A2DP and HF profiles. The S-805 has better sound but is a little hard to use for more vigorous activities. The HT-820 sounds as good as the original S-9, have not used the S-9 HD, but lasts more than twice as long on a charge.
