As we mentioned, the LG HBM-550 follows the LG Chocolate closely in style and design. It has a glossy black front and is very compact, measuring only 0.74x1.61x0.65 inches and weighing in at only 0.42 ounce. The multifunction button may feel a little flat to the surface of the headset, but there is a slight groove around it, making it easy to find by feel. It also yielded easily to pressure. On the left spine is the volume rocker, while the charger jack rests on top of the device. The volume rocker was easy to press, even when the headset was worn on the ear.
Instead of a large earpiece, the headset simply has a slight bump on its back, which rests gently against the ear and makes for a very comfortable fit. The rest of the body has a silver finish, while the ear loop is comprised of a black rubbery material with a chrome-finish plastic base. The comfortable ear loop fits on either ear, and it can rotate up to 360 degrees.
