I am really happy that I purchased this blue tooth headset. I often forget that I have it on. I do wish the magnets were a lot stronger in keeping the earpieces in the sockets.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I like the 700 better
on June 25, 2014
Posted by: Ducky8888
I had originally purchased a 700 a few years ago. I love the sound, I was worried about the thing around my collar and after reading reviews I thought I would try it out, and sure enough, just as the reviews say, you forget its there.
So, when my 700 got stolen, I decided to upgrade to the 730. Simply put, this was a mistake. The audio quality is not much better, without a side by side comparison.
The 730 also has "features" that the 700 did not. I am not sure if this is because I had an older model, or if its a difference between the 700 and 730. For example, the 730 talks to me. When I turn it on it says "Power on" in a female voice, and same when I turn it off. It verbally tells me when I am receiving a call and vibrates. It verbally tells me when the battery is low. I find the voice annoying, I liked the older setup, a beep when it turned on, a couple beeps when bluetooth connected, vibrate when call received, tone when battery went low. I wish there was a way to turn off the voice prompts.
Another annoyance is there is a delay in this model that wasnt in the last. What I mean is, if I answer a call using the phone rather than the button on the headset, the headset vibrates one last time, even though the call picks up, so the first thing a caller hears when I answer is what has been described as an irritated cow mooing.
I will say, with both model I am extremely happy with the quality. I am fairly abusive, tugging on the wires, no issues at all. Battery life is wonderful. I charge it using my car charger on my 30 minute drive to work in the morning (i have bluetooth in the car) and the headset works all day long, and I spend most of my day either on the phone or watching netflix.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

The battery lasts a long time. The sound quality is very good. When I use it to make a phone call, people tell me that they can hear me clearly.

Best Headset Around.

As a Security guard, im always on the phone with clients and company contacts, I love this headset because it alows me to be hands free and still hear clearly. When inside industrial factories, I get clear calls and i am told on numorous occasions that the people im talking to can hear me loud and clear. I would recommend this to ANYONE. I also use it for music when at home or in the gym. Its so confortable that i sometimes forget im wearing it. The vibrate function is helpful with im in loud areas and cant hear my phone or feel it on the belt clip. Theres not a thing so far that i can say negative about this product. The battery life, the function, the features, the comfort. This headset is everything ive been looking for for a long time.

Comfortable to wear, ease of use, sound quality

Great quality sound and battery life. I use these when I am driving long distances, walking the dog and my normal exercise power walks. Have found one minor problem with the ear buds. When you are walking in a windy area, the buds do not suppress the wind movement. It does not dampen the music, nor does it cut out the sound of car horns on the road. Little glitch for safety.
Pros: easy to use, Quality

Works great!

I bought this after borrowing my son's for a while, and falling in love with it. The feature I love the most is that it wraps around the neck, but is so light, you barely notice it's there. It paired very easy with my Galaxy Note 3. The sound is crystal clear, I hear my calls perfectly, and when I'm listening to music, the sound is awesome. I've bought several and gave them out as gifts.

Not as good as HBS-700, but better than HBS-750
on October 6, 2014

I absolutely loved my HBS-700 headset, but they finally broke and since that model is no longer available, I was forced to buy a newer version. I have purchased two newer models HBS-730 & 750. Neither is as good as the 700. Why did LG mess with a great design. I never had any problem at all with the 700's on phone calls, now with the 730, it is often garbled and I cannot understand what the other person is saying. On the 750's, the buttons are awful. You cannot tell which one you are pushing and I have hung up on people when trying to adjust volume. Please re-stock the 700 Model!!
Pros: easy to use, Features/Settings
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

quit working after 3 months

Although this is nice product overall, the left earbud has stopped producing any sounds. After only 3 months, this is completely unacceptable.
Not impressed at all. Need to return for repairs/replacement. What a waste of my time.
