Finding the world’s smallest bluetooth headset can be a real adventure if you are not aware of what you should be looking for. However, the Motorola H17 is perfect for those who want an unassuming piece of technology that functions just as well as some of the larger models.
The entire device is small enough that it fits over the ear and once you have it on, you probably will not be able to feel it. It is less than half an inch thick and not more than two inches long, making it comfortable to wear. Many people worry when purchasing an extremely small headset that the controls on it will be too hard to use to control the phone. Thankfully this is not true with the Motorola H17, which features a multifunctional call button and a volume rocker on the side for easy reaching.
The microphone is foldable and actually controls the device, when it is folded back on itself the device is off, but when you reach up and fold the device out, the bluetooth headset will be turned on. This is wonderful for anyone who wants to tie their cell and landlines together to receive calls on both, using the multifunctional button to decide which phone to answer on. A soothing voice tells you which call line you are getting the call from, as well as if any of your lines are muted or your battery is running low.
Perhaps the best feature of the Motorola H17 aside from its size is just how long the battery lasts. It will provide you with up to five hours of talk time and around seven days of standby time on a single charge. Another nice feature is the quick charge ability, which will allow you to charge two hours of talk time in only fifteen minutes, meaning if you find your device is running low in the middle of an important call, you can charge it quickly and get right back to the person you were talking to.
Overall, due to the size and the price of the Motorola H17, it is probably the best Bluetooth headset available in terms of size and features. While larger headsets might be able to provide you with slightly more talk time, they also grow cumbersome and heavy to wear in that time frame, making them much less comfortable than the H17.
