Plantronics BackBeat Go Review: Tech Gods Don't Give With Both Hands

The Plantronics BackBeat Go is a design triumph disguised as a tangle-free Bluetooth headset. Sadly, the rule rings true that the tech gods don't give with both hands.

Plantronics BackBeat GO Review – wireless, small, and stylishly cool

Plantronics BackBeat GO Review – I was very happy with my Plantronics BackBeat 903+ Bluetooth headset . That is, until I lost it some months ago. Tons of Bluetooth headsets to review afterwards, but none could really compare to the BackBeat 903+ stylish design and sound quality.

There's better, much better

There are a great many noise isolation ear buds out there that are vastly better than these - many of them for less money. The sound quality is very poor. There is almost no bass at all. They sound exactly like $10 headphones.

Plantronics has released the BackBeat GO - its lightest and smallest wireless in-ear headphones ever - so you can enjoy music and make and receive calls minus the tangle of cables.

In fact, it's the best stereo Bluetooth headset we've ever used for phone calls, period. A few sound quality-related pitfalls with music hold it back from a perfect rating. But the BackBeat Go is still easily good enough to secure our Editors' Choice award for wireless headphones, and is well worth a close look—particularly if the Samsung Modus HM6450's ($99.99, 4 stars) convertible mono and stereo design doesn't appeal to you. Design, Inline Controls, and CableThe BackBeat Go weighs just 0.46 ounces. The plastic earbud housings have a curved shape, with a rubber cover over the micro USB charging port on the right earbud. The rubber tips are of a very soft material (more on that later). Plantronics includes three sets in the package, each of a different size, plus a set of optional looped stabilize...
