Buying tips

What to look for

Bluetooth PTT buttons

• Make sure the listing says BLE HID or "works with phone PTT apps" — generic two-way radio buttons don't pair to phones.
• Look for at least 30 hours of battery life on a charge.
• Belt-clip models with a finger-ring trigger are the most popular.
• Avoid models that require a proprietary dongle.

Earpieces

• Acoustic-tube earpieces are the discreet "secret service" style. Comfortable for long shifts.
• Two-wire kits put a small PTT button on the lapel — useful if you don't want a Bluetooth accessory.
• Match the connector to your phone (3.5mm, USB-C, Lightning) or use a Bluetooth bridge.
• Look for in-line mics rated for noisy environments.
