There is also the Plantronics Backbeat which does all these things.  It is also 
a stereo headset.  The earpieces rest over and in your ears, and there is a 
cable that goes behind your head to connect them.  The left earpiece has the 
phone controls, and the right side has the play/pause, forward and rewind, 
volume, etc.  They run about 60 dollars on Amazon.

Subject: Re: Does This Bluetooth Headset Exist?

 

I own the LG HBS700, which can do everything you want and more besides. Its a 
great headset, and the in-ear earvuds are, in my opinion, the most comfortable 
out of all the ones I've tried so far. This headset is a stereo model which 
hangs around the neck. When not in use, the earvuds can be stored away on the 
pods which are on either side of your neck, near the collar bone bones. Be sure 
to get the 700 model, not the 730 model, as the 730 model, although being an 
upgrade, is purported to not work well with VoiceOver, to say nothing of 
working mess well overall, which is reflected in the products poor Amazon 
reviews.









Thanks,

Ari

I'm looking for a bluetooth headset to use with my iPhone 5 and don't care 
whether it's a single ear or both ears set but I do want it to have the 
following features:

 

1.      A2DP compatible so it works with VoiceOver.
2.      Controls similar to what is found on the wired earpods including a 
remote button, volume buttons, and a microphone. Since my phone is in my pocket 
most of the time, having access to a remote button allowing movement between 
tracks and rewind and fast forward capability is critical.
3.      A decent sound. I will be using this primarily to listen to books but 
will also use it to listen to music and make calls.

 

I already have a Plantronics M50 Bluetooth headset but I don't think it has a 
remote button that allows starting and stopping of audio and rewind and fast 
forward of items playing.

 

Can anyone suggest a headset containing the above features that you can 
recommend? Thanks in advance.
