On April 15th Sound ID announced that its new 300 Bluetooth headset would be available exclusively at at&t stores.

The 300 is a beautiful Bluetooth headset with a glossy black color or as some call it a piano black finish, that not only looks good but feels good in your ear, because it’s so light weight and it doesn’t even feel like it’s in your ear.

I actually forgot the headset was in my ear because of how comfortable and light weight it is, it literally doesn’t feel as if it is in your ear after a while.

What also amazed me about the Sound ID 300 is the sound quality, it’s as crystal clear as it can get, and people who I talked to could hear me clearly as well, I did not have to speak louder than normal for them to hear me. I credit the dual microphones in the headset for that.

The Sound ID 300 also has 3 listening modes, which are easy to switch between and depending on the environment you are in will give you a better call experience, it will even adjust the volume automatically depending on your environment as well.

What’s also cool about the 300 is you don’t need to tap talk on your phone, you just hit the button on the back of the headset and it will answer or put on hold the person you are talking too. That’s the kind of ease of use I enjoy.

The battery life is also long, I have gone several days with day to day use with out having to charge the battery yet, it advertises 220 hours of battery life so that may be about right.

The Sound ID 300 is great and it’s available now at at&t retail stores for just $99.99, it should also be available at http://wireless.att.com but at last check it was not. 

I had the pleasure of reviewing the SoundID Bluetooth headset and I was rather pleased with the experience.

The SoundID is an in-ear Bluetooth headset. I know it doesn’t look like it’s an in-ear but the ear piece actually goes inside of your ear and there is no need for an ear hook to hold the headset in place. (However it does come with one for added security).

The makers of the SoundID say the product offers clearer sound with a feature they call NoiseNavigation. Basically NoiseNavigation automatically adjust the headset for the environment you are in, so I put it to the test.

I live in NYC and this place is noisy. You have the subway, construction everywhere and crazy cabbies honking at you to get out of their way.

My first test was on the subway (above ground, no signal underground) and I called Indi (LaIndia on this site). Normally she would complain that she cannot hear me, and normally I can’t hear her with the clink clank clunk of the train. However, due to the headset actually being in my ear I could hear her clearly, and she didn’t complain once.

My second test took place in lower Manhattan, around 11:30 in the morning. There was a lot of traffic and cars honking around me, I was actually on my way to meet someone for lunch (arrived 15 minutes late). Anyway, I again called Indi taking advantage of the noisy background to again test the headset, and again it passed with flying colors.

I used the headset in a car with the window open purposely to get wind in my face and again no problems hearing or being heard.

The SoundID Bluetooth headset can also be used as a walkie talkie system, if you and someone else (just 2 people) have two of these headsets you can link them and talk to each other, perfect for a security detail that doesn’t stray too far away from each other.

I do have one complaint, the manual sucked and because of that I had some problems setting the headset up. I brought that up to SoundIDs attention and I was told that the manuals are being updated to be more detailed.

Overall I loved the headset and we here at CellRants award it our KickAss award. However, we don’t have awards yet (our designer is a lazy punk), so we are going to borrow our sister site HardwareGeeks.com’s KickAss Award.

The SoundID headset is sold for $129.99 and can be bought at http://www.soundid.com . A car charger will be available in the future.
