The first thing you can test on some headset is comfort and how does it feel in your ear. This is something you should decide on your own, because you know what is best for your ear. You won’t buy a headset that is too big or too small for your ear. There are two main kinds of headset on the market, mono and stereo. Mono goes on one ear and stereo on both. Stereo headset is better due to the surround sound it provides, but mono is more classical and businesslike. It is your opinion which one suits you best and which one is more comfortable.

Call Quality:

It is extremely important to hear your caller and that he can hear you. You should check if your headset has noise filtering or noise canceling because that means it can stop background noises. Every quality headset should be able to stop these noises, so you can talk while driving, taking a walk or doing shopping. It is important that your microphone and speaker are both good quality for better performance and easier communication. Some headset have more than one microphone for better audio and call quality, so that is something you may consider as well.

Battery Life and Range:
Average battery life for headset is usually about 5 to 7 hours of talk time, and few days on standby. If you are using your headset for listening to music, you can use some with stronger battery life because music can faster drain your battery. Bluetooth connection will drain your mobile battery, as well. Headsets have LED light which indicates their battery level and some will show their battery status on your mobile phone so you can charge them on time. Like battery life, headsets have an average range of Bluetooth connection, and that is 15 to 20 feet. Physical barriers like walls can shorten their range.
