It measures 4.5 inches in length and 2.2 inches wide and is only 0.7 inches thick.

The LG Fathom is a bit handier as compared to its android relative LG Ally. It weighs at 5.4 ounces and feels like you are holding a block in your hand and the effect is further enhanced with the front bezel. The front part has a 3.2 inch touch screen with a very high resolution.

This is one feature that needs to be upgraded as the resistive screen isn’t smooth enough and the response is also not satisfactory. The windows mobile phone comes with an alignment wizard which can be used in order to fine tune the touch screen functionality but it leaves much to be desired.

The display is very good with many vibrant and colorful graphics. The back light can be adjusted according to the needs and requirements of the user. Although the LG Fathom looks good, it may have many performance issues.

Nokia BH-905

Anybody would love to flaunt the cord free portable music devices around, especially at the time when today the stereo Bluetooth headsets are in vogue. Gone are those days when the stereo Bluetooth headsets were considered to have the mediocre audio quality as today you can mostly find them with fantastic sound quality and Nokia BH-905 is one of these excellent examples which has also incorporated a multimicrophone active noise cancelling facility. And coupled with an easy fit into ears, the Nokia BH-905 can be touted to be one of the best stereo Bluetooth headsets around.

Possessing an over-the-ears style pair of headphones and having dimensions of 7.09x6.10x2.32 inches, it cannot be called as the lightweight object but it has a soft leather casing headband which is linked with the two soft earpads which are rotational and make the headset very portable and compact in design. The entire structure is quite pleasant and comfortable to use and look at. The controls are mainly on the right side of the device and are simple to access along with the multifunction call button.

One can find the Bluetooth status indicator, volume rocker and also an audio cable connector if there is no stereo Bluetooth in your device, underneath the right earpad. A good part of this headset is the 3.5mm Nokia AV audio cable and four audio adapters for four audio connections like standard 3.5mm jack, 6.3mm home stereo jack, airplane audio jack and 2.5mm Nokia AV. And underneath the left earpad, you can see the active noise-cancelling toggle, an LED indicator and also a charger jack.

With all the usual headset profile features and a good talktime of upto 24 hrs and music playback time of upto 25 hrs on Bluetooth mode, and talktime of upto 15 hrs and music playback time of upto 16 hours without Bluetooth, and with surprisingly excellent call quality, Nokia BH-905 priced at $250 and on retail at $394 (which makes it a quite expensive pair of headphones) is indeed an awesome stereo Bluetooth headset on the market if you really ignore its downside on the price factor, for its excellent performance.

Motorola H720

Looking at the Motorola Bluetooth headsets, one cannot unnotice the fact that the company always releases its headsets with the flip boom mic design, and the latest Motorola H720 is also a perfect example. Replicating its predecessors H17, H15 and the H710 in this design format, we cannot simply call it to be another flip boom product as it has got its own certain good specifications and affordability options by being available on the market at $50.

Though it resembles the look of the H700 and H710, but is designed in the oval pebble like shape looking quite smaller and discreet while being used on the ear. Measuring 1.65x1.06x0.79 inches in dimensions and weighing 0.5 ounces, it has got a shiny black plastic body with shiny silver boom mic and buttons.

On the multifunction button on the front surface is a small LED indicator with volume controls on either side of the gadget with charger jack on the top. One just has to flip the boom mic open and close to switch the headset on and off respectively.

The unusual looking earpiece does not seem to fit perfectly inside the ears unlike other headsets as it is more of a flat plastic protruding object. But the rubberized ear hook is a comfortable fit around the ears but sometimes it’s like not getting a more secured feeling while wearing it.

The call quality can be termed as decent but the callers could feel the echoing sound from the background. The features of Motorola H720 include the typical call answering, rejecting and ending, support for call waiting and voice dial, transfer of calls, etc. Overall the Motorola H720 can be regarded as a headset with good affordability and good call quality.

Strive has got some extra ordinary features like the 1000-contacts phone book, and AT&T address book feature, apart from the regular phone features like the SMS, MMS, instant messaging, alarm clock, calendar, calculator, notepad, etc and of course the Bluetooth, USB mass storage, PC syncing and voice recorder for the ultra tech geeks.

The phone’s 2 megapixel camera offers four resolutions for the images, but the picture quality cannot be termed as the extraordinary type as the colors in the images look bit muted. The image is shot in one pixel resolution of 176x144. Strive’s streaming video quality is above average as the videos can be easily loaded. The battery life is not that appreciable as it runs for 3 hours of talktime and 19.41 days of standby time.
