I'm on a hunt for a multi-point bluetooth headset.

basically i want it to pair to both my phones so if either one rings i can answer it with the headset.

im having a hard time finding models that support this feature, not all new ones do.

the one i have found that looks pretty good is the Plantronics Voyager 510




anyone know of any other headsets that support this feature (multi-point)? if so can you please post below

thanks!

Most Nokia headsets do, and the Plantronics 640 is excellent.

I don't know if there is such a thing. Maybe that's why you can't find data about it. You can't connect two phones on the same headset cuz that's why the phone asks for pairing. Without pairing it doesn't know where to route the call. The same happens to 2 phones and 1 headset - it doesn't know to which phone to send the signal to. Multi-pairing means something else, not that.

STOP talking. You do not know what you are talking about. The Plantronics 640 can pair with up to 8 phones at one time but it can only make a connection to speak with only one phone at one time. If you do not know what you are talking about don't offer advise.

Anyway, as I was saying with confidence, many Nokia headsets support multi-paring, as does the Plantronics 640, and the SE HBH-DS970.

He said multi-point, not multi-paring.

Sapporo: he is saying exactly the same as you. You can pair with many phones, but you can only use one phone at a time. So, in reference to the original question, there is no headset that would communicate with two phones at the same time.
However, a single headset can communicate with two paired devices, as long as they are of different types. Example: a phone and a PC. But only by switching from the one to the other and back.

@michka,

That is not what he said. Read his post again. He says something entirely different. He say it is not possible while it is possible. He then goes on to mention that multi-pairing means something different. Sorry but he does not know what he is talking about.

Anyway, to the originator of this thread, it is possible to have one headset pair to different phones at the same time. However, you can not talk on two different phones with the one headset. Look into the Nokia, or Plantronics headsets. They tend to work better.

Here's one headset wich can be paired with the normal 8 phones BUT ALSO toggles between the two latest paired phones just throug a simple push of a button on the headset:

I've tested it myself and it works fine when swapping between phones. It also has excellent sound quality and comfort.

Still not exactky what the poster asked for though since you can only swap between phones when both phones are in standby mode. And it still only rings when call is received in the phone that is connected for the moment.

thanks for all your replies, they are much appreciated!

sorry to confuse people, i knew this would happen.

i know multi-point and multi-pairing are different

i know 2 phones cant be paired to the SAME headset at the same time, so theres an active link to both phones, but i wanted one that could toggle between 2 phones so if either of them ring i can just press the bluetooth headset button so it will answer the call

since posting my question i have found a few that may do what im looking for

1. Cardo 700 (thanks to poster above!)
2. BlueAnt X3 Micro
3. Plantronics 510/640
4. i-Tech Bluetooth Clip II Mini Headset with Multi-point : http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/12178.htm

im gona have to see if i can demo some of them before i buy.

if anyone know any more models, please let me know

thanks

@sappo,
Maybe YOU should read his post again!
And try to understand what he wanted to say, instead of forcing him to say what YOU want him to say.
This being said, I certainly agree that he was not clear, confusing pairing and connecting.
But that's not a reason to treat him like you did.
Be kind and gentle with people who make mistakes, pal. That's how we can live in peace and learn from each other.
