Tired of complicated Bluetooth headsets? Innovative new designs make chatting wirelessly far easier.

USA Today's Ed Baig tried out the Jawbone Era and Plantronics Voyager.

"In the case of the Jawbone, there's an accelerometer that detects motion. And so again, if you tap it, you can answer a call," Baig said.

"In terms of the Plantronics, it too has sensor that can detect what the device is held up to your ear or when it's on a desk." He said both worked as advertised when he tested them.

The Jawbone costs $130 and the Voyager goes for $200.
