I received the LG Tone+ 730 for free & was asked to test it. Let me tell you that this new & improved Bluetooth device is the perfect gift idea. The LG Tone+ offers better bass, 15 hours of talk time, less noise, & continuous music playback. It is so comfortable & convenient you never notice it's there until it vibrates to alert you of an incoming call or low battery. For anyone in your life needing a state of the art hands free device this product is a must buy!!!

I was asked to test out the new LG TONE+ stereo headset a few months ago. I just want to say how much I love this headset. It is the most comfortable bluetooth to wear. You never have to worry about it falling off. The sound is clear and people never know I'm talking to them over a bluetooth. I wear my LG TONE+ at the gym, in the car, cleaning my house, out shopping and just relaxing listening to music. I would recommend this product to any busy person.

November 24, 2012 Easy to use

I was selected by LG Tone to try out the new product and I would recommend it. There have been several improvements from the previous model including a battery alert message when powered on and better sound quality in the head phones. I use this while listening to music when I am working out at the gym or talking on the phone while doing household tasks (laundry, dishes, cooking, etc.). The sound quality is clear and outside noises do not seem to interfere with my phone conversations nor does the person I am talking to know I am using a blue tooth device. The only con I would say is I am not sure how good the range is. I started getting some crackles as I walked from one end of my house to the other.

October 16, 2012 LG Tone+ Earns its Plus

As a long-time LG user, LG sent me the latest version of their Tone Bluetooth Headset, the LG Tone+ to test and while I wasn't sure that the upgrade would really be significant over the regular LG Tone, I have now been using the Tone+ for about a month and the improved sound quality alone has made me feel that the folks at LG really got it right.

The Tone+ has all the same benefits of the original Tone: small/light, comfortable, easy to sync with my laptop at work and cell phone at the gym, intuitive sound controls and since most things I have (my Droid, my Kindle) also run on mini-USB, I love that I pretty much always have a charger to keep it running.

Improvements on the LG Tone+ that make me feel it really earned the + for me are:
- Making the accent color silver instead of orange makes it stick out less when I am at work
- The SOUND: while the sound quality on the original Tone was good, I didn't quite realize how much better it is on the Tone+ until I recently left my Tone+ at home and pulled out my Tone to use. The Tone+ has a deeper base and I find that particularly during phone conversations, the microphone seems to pick up less background noise and I can hear the other people on the call so much better.
- I don't know if this is just because it is newer but the Tone+ for me seems to hold a charge a lot longer than the Tone.
- My Favorite upgrade: it now TELLS me when I turn it on how the battery is doing! This is so helpful as with the regular Tone I did have a couple of situations where I started a conference call and part-way through realized I was running out of battery. The audible prompt at the start is so helpful - such a small change but really makes a big difference.

The only con that I have seen other people mention is that the range does seem to be shorter than that of the original Tone. This is not a problem for me 99% of the time since I use it while sitting at my laptop or on a machine at the gym, but I did experience my first situation where it was inconvenient the other day at home. I was used to the range on the Tone and stepped out of range with the Tone+. All in all, though, the pros for me outweigh the cons.

Great upgrades to an already great product!
