Product seems to be "Good" after a few uses. It does not have much range though and it does not work through walls or around corners. if you want to eliminate the cord on your headset, this serves the purpose nicely. Sound quality is good.

In a nutshell, this is a great headset. It's perfect for those who want to get rid of the hassle of the cords.Overall, it is comfortable to wear even for extended periods of time. As someone who frequently needs to talk and listen on my computer, it does exactly what it says it does--with minimal outside interferance and the sound is crisp and clear. Although it sometimes has a bit of static when speaking, overall it is a solid value.Pros: Comfortable, can easily use while charging, charge lasts a long time, DOES work with Windows 7, decent sound, and easily switches between being actively speaking and not by just flipping the microphone mouthpiece up-brilliant!Cons:A bit of random static (may be due to other electronic interferance), color (not a fan of the silver and black).

Platronics wireless headphones are have a good value, excellent for skype, though they are not really for listening to classical music, as there is some little noise from time to time.Also it's not possible the charge them without PC / USB, as there is no charger in the package, just a USB cable.Another downside is that it's not possible to talk while charging.

This headset is sized for a kid's head and a kid's ears. Consequently, if you are an adult, your ears get tender after an hour or so because the ear muffs are pressing on your ears instead of engulfing them.The sound is great, as is the sound of your voice as transmitted by the microphone.It takes a long time to recharge the headset, but if you pay attention and plug in the charging cable after you are through using the headset, you should always have enough juice to make some VOIP calls or watch a movie.The problem is the ear muffs press on your ears. This is not good.

I purchased these as a replacement for a wired headset.Pros:I am not tethered to my computer.The charge is good enough for me 5-7 hoursThe controls are very easy to use.Wearing of the headset does not hurt my ears. Its all about placement. If I wear them alittle off yes my ears hurt after 45 minutes.Very light weightCons:No battery life indicatorMinor signal issue - not a loss of signal but the sound get a reverb in it.Boom mic needs to be a bit shorter.I have to restart a program if I switch from wired to wireless. More of software then hardware issue.Overall good purchase I just wish I had purchased here and not in store for $99.99

I use this daily for conference calls (Skype, GoToMeeting, and Google Talk).Pros:1. Easy to mute (just raise the mic boom).2. 3.5/5 on comfort.3. Driver, etc. is reliable.4. Wireless is good from those who don't want to be stuck sitting at the desk during long calls.Cons:1. No warning when the battery is dying and no way to plug it in and make it work off USB power.2. Too large to carry on the road. Not a huge con, but worth mentioning since many VoIP converts also probably travel from time to time.I think I paid around $40 for the unit shipped. That's comparable to the retail on some wired USB headsets. Shop around. It's a good unit for $40-$50.

I was excited when I got these. I didn't have to deal with anymore wires. The signal on these are great. I can go about 90 feet away and still pick up a signal and what is being said. The battery life last anywhere from 8 to 10 hours for me. I'm a hard core gamer and usually stay on for a miniumum of 8 hours on the weekend.Con on this is that they are very uncomfortable. My ears usually hurt when I take them off cause they feel so tight (even when I try to stretch the headphones out), and the other thing is there isn't a beep or anything to let you know when your headphones are about to die, they just die. So you can be in a dungeon talking with your group on what strategy to use next and not even know you have faded out till they start typing something on the screen. If it weren't for these 2 things this headset would be perfect. Maybe in the future they will correct these 2 things.Still all in all it's a good headset for the price and I will give up comfort to be wireless anyday.

The Plantronics 995 Wireless Headset is a superb piece of equipment, and for $55.00, it's A STEAL!!!FIRST, THE PACKAGE represents the quality of the company. Clean, simple, concise, with easy opening. It's a beautiful package highlighting the product;NEXT, BEAUTY OF PRODUCT. It's awesome! Clean, sleek, easy to use, and no big buttons or clumsiness! It's STATE-OF-THE-ART APPEARANCE for $55.00;NEXT, EASE OF INSTALLATION. Actually, they should call it NON-installation. You plug in the wireless adapter, AND, YOU'RE IN OPERATION!!!;NOW, THE SOUND.......IT'S EXQUISITE!!!! Ah, what a deal!! As an added benefit, I tried to see if I could dictate while listening to Billy Joel. Works great, too! Man, what a headset!;NEXT, DICTATION WORKS VERY WELL, and I haven't dictated on my computer for some time. Oh, by the way, I'm using the dictation program from Microsoft that came installed in the computer (Toshiba, laptop). At this point, I feel I just saved about $125.00 since there is no need for a Dragon Dictate program;NEXT, COMFORT AND EASE OF USE. The headset is VERY COMFORTABLE, and EASE OF USE is, well, what do I say? SIMPLE!;NEXT, DID I HEAR SOMEONE QUESTION THE RANGE OF HEADSET USE? Well, I find it works behind walls, down hallways, and on another floor. The RANGE IS GREAT for throughout a large home; and,FINALLY, FOR YOU DOUBTING THOMAS'(John 20:24-29): IS THERE A NEGATIVE FACTOR? Well, I may fall asleep listening to Billy, and then the battery may run down. Ah, who cares? The SOUNDS are so, so CLEAR, AND MELLOW TOO!!THERE IS NO NEGATIVE HERE. BUY THIS SET, AND YOU WILL LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER. BUY SOME SETS FOR YOUR FRIENDS, AND RELATIVES, AND PARENTS, AND........Plantronics .Audio 995 Wireless Stereo HeadsetENJOY!!

I like this headset. I use it for talking on the phone through my laptop, I use it to listen to music it works great. The only problem I have had with it is sometimes I will get an annoying digital gable sound even when I am setting in front of my laptop. Otherwise I love the freedom to move around.

I bought these about 2 months ago, and wish I would have returned them before it was too late, but now I'm stuck with them.I did a lot of browsing around looking at reviews on wireless headsets before I made this purchase. I saw many references to the ear pieces not being large enough, but I thought my head & ears were small enough for it not to be a problem. I was wrong.These things just downright hurt my ears after 30+ minutes of wearing. This is killer for me since I bought them for the purpose of conference calls which all last at least 30 minutes.Other than being uncomfortable they have been great. I've had no battery problems (I'm good at keeping them charged). Call clarity is great, range is fine, I can walk around my first floor with no real problems. I love being able to just take the usb dongle and plug it in to different pc's and have the wireless headset.Really wish they fit my head. I may sell and try logitech version :(

They're wireless and that's what I wanted. The sound is much better than the static I get on the channel I use with my Sennheiser wireless headphones. I did think there would be a greater range of distance tho. Still, it's great to make VOI phone calls with a good headset. Better than having to yell or make land-line calls with a phone that can't be hands free.

I have had these headphones for 3 or so months and I am fed up with them. The headset will not connect to the USB connector about 75% of the time without having to restart your computer or manually connect the devices. It is not a problem of range because they never go more than 5 feet away from each other. I will even trying placing them side by side while connecting, and they still will not connect. You just get a high pitched sound coming out of the headphones. I have even had times when they were working and then somehow disconnect in the middle of listening to something. Too much trouble for the money, buy another brand.

I use my headset 6-10 hours daily, and this headset can not be used while connected to the charger! How pathetic for a wireless headset! The instructions even say this!As a result, I am unable to appreciate any features that the headset may or may not possess, as I am returning it for a refund.

I liked most everything about this headset except:- The fit is snug (good) but gets tight on my ears after a few minutes. You can adjust it for size of your head but the 'clamp strength' is pretty strong (maybe because the headset is a bit heavy and they don't want it falling off).- It took awhile to figure out why I could heard sound (CDs playing, etc) but it would play Skype calls through my speakers instead. A check of the Plantronics Q&A on their site determined I needed to specifically set the device Skype would use. I have not had to do that with any other app to make it work, so that was not the obvious solution. But once I knew where to look, it was simple enough to fix.- This is a smaller issue but I was a bit disappointed in the range. I find I must stay within about 15' and there can't be a wall or door in between, so it apparently must be a line-of-sight requirement.

I bought this to use with my laptop and didn't want to be tied to any wires.First of all, the headset did exceed my expectations; it is light and comfortable and sits in place on my head (can't speak for other heads though). While the audio is no high-quality, it did match the quality of other computer headsets. I was impressed by the range and quality over the wireless, especially considering the amount of 2.4GHz devices I have around such as cordless phones, Wi-fi and bluetooth headsets. The quality from the mic is great, and works well with speech recognition software.The bad? Well for one, you cannot use it while charging, so you have to do without it while it is being charged. No replaceable battery, which, for the life of me, I cannot understand; Plantronics should be doing there part to reduce trash and not sell more headsets. The USB dongle is a bit fat; it is slim enough so that it does not affect another port directly above, but it affects the port at the side such as in the case of my laptop.In all, I would say that the headset is a good buy if you are looking for a wireless equivalent of something to listen to music. If you are looking for something for voice recognition software only (such as Dragon Naturally Speaking), you might want to look at bluetooth headsets if you have a compatible system (DNS standard does not allow the use of bluetooth headsets).

These work very well. Most reviewers are on Windows systems. I am on an Ubuntu Linux system, so Linux users will be happy with this headset.These work great all around, but have two complaints. First, they are not comfortable if you are wearing for a long time. I use them for long Google talk calls and then music while working, so the wear time is long. Also, I wear glasses, so the pressure on the frames is increased. The second complaint is that there is no voice feedback through the headset. Most people do not realise this, but as you talk on a phone, there is a light playback of your voice through the earpiece. This surprised me. All my other Plantronics devices perform this way and work very very well. This one does not, and can actually be distracting...Despite the two negatives, I believe this is a very easy to use and good quality headset for the price.

I use the headset for about 1 week. For two or three times.After this I wasn't able to pair them with the usb connector anymore.I couldn't find any help on their website. I'm not able to return the headset because I'm not in US anymore.Very disappointed.Later Edit 19.10.2012:After putting a lot of effort in contacting Customer support, I got a new item (surprisingly, was shipped to Finland (i live there) with no shipping cost from my side).

I've never really written a negative review on Amazon, so I'll try to be careful.First the positives:1. The price was great, although there doesn't seem a lot out there to compete with. One other vendor in this relative price range and then it jumps up to about triple the price.2. The audio quality for playback was very good. Sounded great.Next the undetermined:1. Battery2. SignalDidn't have this long enough to really test either of these things. I mostly need this in my office, so range not a big issue, but when I did leave the room it started to fade fairly quickly. On par with other bluetooth devices I have.Now the negatives:1. The earpieces are a bit uncomfortable, as other folks have noted, but I was prepared for that.but the biggie, and the reason I returned these is....2. Sound quality for the microphone was horrible. Everyone I spoke to said it sounded like I was on a speaker phone (the glass half full) or at the bottom of a cave (half empty). Since my main use for this headset was to be voice conversations with co-workers and customers, it just would not fly.Unfortunately I'm stuck now with a corded (also Plantronics. DSP 400) model that works great. Voice quality is really good. The cord drives me INSANE, though.I'm hoping to find an alternative some day.

I bought the Plantronics .Audio 995 to use with my laptop and a Cisco Softphone. I spend many hours a day in conference calls and thought that a full headset might be a nice way to go. I should say that a telephone headset is a rather tried and true technology and as a result, my expectations are that a new device be at least as good as what I can have with a plain 'ol Plantronics single-ear wireless headset. I am considering replacing a Plantronics CS-55 Dect 6.0 Digital Wireless Office Headset and a land line with this device.I have several complaints about the .Audio 9551) While I do not have big ears, after wearing it for just a little while, it hurts my ears. The padding does not completely cover my ears. They get mashed and after a while it is painful.2) Sounds the microphone picks up are not played in the ear speakers. I am used to feedback from the mic in the ear. Given that the headset is soundproof, what this means is that you can't hear how loudly you are speaking, and since I am a multi-tasker, I can't hear my keyboard clicking but everyone else on the call can. Other ambient noises in my room are transmitted to everyone but me.3) The battery just dies without warning.4) You can't charge it while using it if it dies, you need a plan-B right away.5) The battery does not last all day. Even if I set it on my desk, it will burn down battery without being used.6) The range is not very far. My office is a 20 paces from the coffee pot and I can't get there without going off the air.

they're pretty nice. It's got pretty good sound quality both on the speakers and the mic, but I'm no audiophile-- if you can only listen to FLAC, you might think very differently. But, for one of the first mainstream wireless headsets, they're REALLY nice. Audio works up to about 30-40 feet with little hinderance, but walls have a serious affect on the signal, so don't try to go into another room and expect to have a great signal strength.Speaking of signal strength, every once in a while it will cut out. Not for very long, maybe for one second, but it is some what irritating while gaming: "Ok, here's what you need to do, just-- .... -- Ok, you got that, right?" It doesn't happen always, but with Murphy's Law and all that...Setup was ridiculously easy: Plug in receiver, hit connect, use headset. And trust me, that's pretty nice.The headphone structure is nice, but I wish the ear pieces were just a tad bit bigger, but you get used to it pretty quickly, and they're pretty comfortable.But all of these points aside, it's a great headset! ... Except for one thing that has been absolutely bugging me the entire time: The battery life. The thing only charges through a USB -> Mini USB port, so unless your computer is on, it's not charging, meaning that instead of turning your computer on to do some gaming before class starts, you're going to be sitting there waiting for your headset to charge. And if you think you'll just use them while they're charging... yeah, no, can't do that. You can only use them when they're completely unplugged. However, if you get an AC -> USB adapter, it will charge perfectly fine using that. This way, you can just plug it in overnight.My thoughts: If you can't stand wires and absolutely positively need a wireless headset NOW, you could do worse. If you can deal with it, wait a generation or so.

I got this product when it was on special at Amazon.com for $52 shipped because I hated to have a wireless headphones but had to be at my computer when I use PC calls and chat. the other headsets seemed flimsy.I had heard good things about this plantronics headset, so when I saw it was on special I jumped on it right away.Shipping was fast! It came in the regular Amazon box I promptly opened the package and everything was ok, I read the instructions but find it lacking, not much instructions to read, but afterall they are only headphones!I charged the headset and noticed the first thing that could improve, I notice that you cannot use them while charging and the charging cord is too short at around 1 ft, I would suggest making a 4ft cable that could be plugged in while in use so you don't end up with a dead headset in the middle of a conversation. But apparently Planttronics has this covered with a long runtime. I hope that is the case!I also noticed that there is no way to replace the battery yourself, that means that you would have to send them in for battery replacement or get another headphone when the battery eventually dies, hope it is not soon.Using the headphones is easy, just hook up the usb dongle and turn them on, and it's done! Easy! It installed flawlessly on my Vista 32 PC, some reviews say that it does not work with Vista 64, I can't confirm or deny it.I would have liked the headphones to have some audible tone when they turn on or off like the Seinheisser wireless headphones do.The persons I talk to say that the microphone is very good! They hear me loud and clear with no apparent noise, guess I will believe them!The sound is very good, unless you have a very sophisticated ear you will be happy with them, I know I am! I would rate the sounds in a scale of 0-10 being 10 the best.Bass = 8Mid = 9Trebble = 9They do not beat Senheisser Sony or Acoustic research wireless headphones, but they are good!I would have liked them to have a bigger ear pad like the before mentioned brands but they are comfortable to wear.I like the buttons on the left headphone are easy to use but I would like them to put more tactile feel around the edges of the buttons so you can feel where one button ends and the other one begins, no big deal for me.The range is around 20 to 30 feet, but it depends on where you set the dongle, and the materials the signal must go thru to get to the headphones, but they are good to use around the house or immediate rooms without worry about the signal.I would suggest to put an audible warning tone to the headphones to let you know that you are about to loose reception because you are too far from the pc.In all I would recommend this headset to others!Thanks!AlexGT
