Let’s look at bluetooth headsets – while originally this list was created in 2012, I’ve updated for 2020.
For the love of God and your children, if you are going to drive and talk on the phone – PLEASE use a bluetooth headset or handsfree device. And when you use a bluetooth headset, please refrain from wearing in Target wondering around the aisles looking like a crazy person who talks to yourself because no one can see your headset. OR if you are in a crowded environment, say a conference, refrain from using your bluetooth headset as people think you are talking to THEM.
Do you know how many times I have felt like such a dork responding to someone who was really just wearing a bluetooth and was on the phone?
Anyways, the fact of the matter is, if you are going to buy a bluetooth headset, you will want a good one. These little devices can get pricey. No use spending money on something not worth it.

And all of the Apple fan girls said YASSSS! When I took the teen to NYC last year, I didn't have my Apple Airpods as of yet, but half the city did!
