Choosing the Right BlueAnt

There are many factors to consider when choosing a handsfree Bluetooth device:

Where will you use your device?

If the answer is while driving only, then a BlueAnt car speakerphone such as the BlueAnt S4 may be the best choice for you. BlueAnt car speakerphones are also a great solution if you switch or rent cars frequently, as they are sun visor mounted devices that can easily be clipped on and off the car as you move between vehicles.

If you are a motorbike rider, then choose the F4 Stereo Interphone, a full wireless entertainment system for bikers on the go that is designed to attach to your helmet.

If you are looking for a handsfree device that you can use while walking, working and multitasking as well as in the car, then you should choose a BlueAnt headset, such as the BlueAnt Q1.

Noise Isolation and Cancellation

All BlueAnt products feature noise cancellation technology to strip out the background noise and keep you sounding clear no matter where you are. If you expect to use your handsfree device in very noisy conditions, then you may wish to choose a BlueAnt headset featuring BlueAnt's adjustable Voice Isolation Technology. The Q1, V1, and Z9i all allow you to switch voice isolation modes during a call if you find yourself in a very noisy place.

Fit And Style

A handsfree device is something you will use a lot so make sure you select a headset or speakerphone that meets your personal preference for comfort and style. For the Q1 headset, BlueAnt provides different sized ear buds and an optional over-the-ear hook for added stability. If you prefer not having anything on your ear, go with one of BlueAnt's speakerphones.

Phone Compatibility

First and foremost, you must make sure your phone supports Bluetooth technology. The majority of modern phones do, so it is likely that your phone is compatible.

If you use more than one phone, such as a personal and a work phone, or if you plan to share your handsfree device with another person, look for devices that support multipoint technology, as this allows you to connect two phones to the device at the same time.

BlueAnt's Q1 headset is the best choice for you if you want a headset that supports connecting two phones at the same time, while BlueAnt's S4 car speakerphone allows you to connect the driver and passenger's phones to the speakerphone at the same time. If a call comes in on either phone then you can answer the call with your voice and the audio will automatically route to the speakerphone.

Simple and Safe Use

You can easily use a BlueAnt handsfree device no matter how technology savvy you are. At BlueAnt, we believe that voice control provides not only the safest means of operation but also the simplest set up process. For example, to set up the Q1 all you need to do is turn it on, put it in your ear and it will talk you through the rest.
