You may ask yourself why you're reading a review of a Bluetooth headset. Not just a Bluetooth headset but a pretty expensive one at that - the Moto Hint is $149 in the US and £99.99 in the UK.We're going to guess that one of two things apply: you own or a...
Small, light with non dorky looks, Great Moto X accessory, Personal assistant in your ear, kind of, The charging case works well...
Limited battery life, Expensive for a Bluetooth headset, Moto/Google Voice far from perfect, Only one design in the UK...
We badly wanted the Moto Hint to work perfectly and if it had comprehensively delivered on the hype, we'd be hailing it as a new king of wearables. In reality, there's still a way to go - the Hint needs a more mature voice-activated personal assistant sys...

Bluetooth earpieces have always stuck out. I mean they have literally stuck out of your ear. Perhaps they're not as much of a fashion faux pas as Google Glass, but there's definitely a stigma about them. To combat the cyborg look, some wearable manufactur...

And you thought the Bluetooth headset was only to be worn by taxi drivers and people that feel they are far more imporant than you. Well guess what - that might be about to change if Motorola has its way with the Moto Hint, a new Bluetooth headset. Among...

The size is really incredible. The Hint is tiny, discreet, and even when you do notice it, it's a pretty slick little gadget. The charging case is really well-engineered and it looks good, too, Being able to do a lot with your phone without even having to...
Unpredictable volume levels in the earpiece. It struggles to hear you when there's much ambient noise, and it can't hear you at all when you're listening to music or an audiobook. But don't even bother listening to music with it, because the audio quality...
Maybe, but there are some big ifs. If you have a new Moto X, then it's pretty cool how it can leverage Moto Voice. If you're the sort of person who uses (or wants to use) a Bluetooth headset anyway, then the tiny form factor of the Hint could definitely b...

Bluetooth headsets aren't anything new by all means. The allure of them has definitely taken a hit over recent years, and the lack of innovation in this category of devices has left it sitting in an optional category. However, Motorola has brought it's ta...

The new $149.99 Motorola Moto Hint Bluetooth headset lets you Google Now, any time—as long as you own a 2014-model Moto X. If you're driving or walking and suddenly want to make a call, send a quick text, or find out how tall President Obama is, the...
Lets you unlock your Moto X and use Google Now from up to 150 feet away. Natural wood finish looks great. Snug and secure in your ear.
Expensive. Poor sound quality through earpiece. Short battery life. Needs charging case to recharge. Can easily disconnect from phone. Positioning in ear can be finicky. Best features only work with one phone...

In 2014, when Motorola announced the Moto Hint at their press event in Chicago, many of us weren't expecting it. When Rick Osterloh came out to speak to the media, none of us even noticed it was in his ear, until he announced it. The Moto Hint is a super...
