Bluetooth headsets are a dime a dozen on the FCC, and frankly most of these devices are crap.  But I have to say, I really like the design of the i-Tech Clip Music 802 – it seems like a nice compromise between Bluetooth audio and telephony.

The body of the Clip Music 802 is, you guessed it, a clip.  I suppose this looks a tad tacky, but really the benefit here is you can clip it to whatever you like – you’re not forced to use a lanyard.

Another thing I love about this device is the 3.5mm audio jack.  This allows you to use any headset with the Clip Music 802 – a big improvement over the integrated stereo Bluetooth headsets that don’t give you any choice in the matter.

Finally, the Clip Music 802 has a standard mini USB charger – a huge plus.  This means you don’t have to carry around a proprietary charger, all you need is a mini USB cable attached to your PC.

The only problem with this design is that the mic is on the clip itself.  This makes it easy to poorly position the mic, resulting in poor call quality.

I-Tech rates the Clip Music 802 at 5 hours of music or talk time, and 130 hours of standby.  That’s not great either – but not unheard of among Bluetooth devices.
