I've owned these headphones for about 16months at the time of this review. In that time I've used them on an average 15-20hrs per week for an approximate total of 1000hrs of personal use. I'm on a VoIP line often for my job and that's where the majority of those 1000 hours were spent.. Incoming voice quality is quite good with the binaural cups providing a lot of isolation and sound concentration. As for my outgoing voice quality, I've never had a client tell me they were having trouble hearing me.I'm no audiophile but I think music sounds very nice through these headphones and I use them often for that purpose. Movies also sound nice which works great since I don't own a TV and watch all my movies and TV shows through my computer.The only real problem I've had with this headset is the size of the bluetooth dongle. It's as big as a usb thumb drive (slightly less than 2in) and is very easy to bump and even bend depending upon where your usb port is located. I know this from experience having bent my dongle while using it with a laptop. The dongle has remained functional though it occasionally needs a little jiggle, presumably because there's a loose connection inside. This is why I only gave it 4 stars.For the price it's a fantastic piece of equipment and it's very likely I'll be buying another one when I need to replace my current unit.

I have mixed feelings about the Plantronics headset. This set that I'm using right now to dictate this review is the second headset which replaced the first one I ordered because the first one was defective.First let me say that the Plantronics headset is working great and I am glad that I got it. My primary use of this headset is for Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition software. In fact, I am presently dictating this review using the headset and Dragon NaturallySpeaking together.I plugged in the USB receiver and turned on the headset and then manually paired the two as per instructions. The instructions say that the headset and the receiver should pair automatically but they did not. That wasn't a big deal because pairing it manually was pretty easy.The headphones themselves fit completely around the ear which is something I really don't care for. That's because in my case, I don't plan to do a whole lot of listening and therefore prefer 'less headphone'. I don't find the headset heavy and even more importantly I find that the microphone requires no wind screen or pop screen.Music and other sounds through the headset sound great but again, I don't typically use this headset in that manner but for casual music or voice listening, it seemed to do the job just fine. I strongly recommend this headset for speech recognition software. The freedom to walk around as I speak is invaluable and I'm quite sure that I will likely never go back to the wired headset.One more thing, the headset I am presently using is a replacement set because the first one that came to my door was defective. Of course I did not know this and chose to believe that I was just doing something wrong and so fought with it for five days. I have had experience with Plantronics customer service so I didn't bother calling them.Finally, I surrendered to the fact that the headset was either a piece of crap or defective. Choosing the latter, I went ahead and ordered a replacement from Amazon. I'm mentioning this because anyone who orders this headset, plugs the receiver into the USB port of their computer, manually pairs the USB receiver to the headset as per instructions, and does not get an instantaneous connection should immediately consider sending the headset back and have it replaced. When this headset works, it works well so if you find yourself pairing and re-pairing then it's likely to be defective, (providing you have fully charged it first). It works especially well with speech recognition software. I tested the range as best I could inside my home moving away from the USB receiver by about 30 feet and it worked great. I strongly recommend this headset.

I bought a pair of Logitech H800 about a year ago and was very happy with the comfort and quality (still in good condition but I gave them to my brother). I also liked the fact that it had a USB dongle for a direct connection and the ability to connect via bluetooth. I took it for granted that these would have bluetooth functionality but they don't (you can only connect via the USB dongle). I also don't find the Plantronics as comfortable as the Logitech headsets. I'm not a big maven in sound but I find the sound on the Logitechs to be better as well. These are a bit cheaper but I would spend a few more dollars and get the Logitechs. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

I am frequently participating in VoIP and telephone conferences and was seeking a semi-professional wireless headset for use when on travel or abroad.Let's start with the Good:The headset appears to be sturdy enough, sits comfortably on your head, and installs like a charm - even on a MacBook. It works right away without any driver issues or configuration. The quality of the transmitted speech is very good and the reception is pretty okay (see constraint in later section). The range is also pretty good - 10 meters and beyond did work and even the closed balcony door did not cause issues.The Bad:I am totally aware of exaggerations in advertisement and this headset is no exception: no way it can give you eight hours of talk, not even four regardless of being fully charged. Another big minus is that as soon as you connect it to be charged it goes into sleep mode, so an emergency charge while in talk is impossible. Another minor minus is the USB dongle itself: Honestly, in the time of micro transmitters, it is really necessary to design that thing in excess of two inches? Another practical shortcoming is the mute functionality: at first I thought it is pretty neat to simply put up the mic for muting but I would also appreciate a visual signal for that - maybe the blue LED on the transmitter dongle turning red or something easy like that. A propos muting: I like to walk around when being in long talks and I sometimes go to my patio. In winter, I put a light jacket on but the mic is picking up a rubbing sound from the jackets collar. The "natural" solution was to put the moveable mic slightly up - but beware, it shuts to mute when it is not very close to the max down position.The Ugly:My headset *frequently* relays distortions into an active VoIP call, even when the microphone is muted. Furthermore, the reception is also frequently distorted for a couple of seconds causing the voices to come across as white noise. At first I thought this is a rare incident but after a week of intensive usage I can conclude that it happens frequently (at least twice in a 10 minute periode). That behavior pretty much disqualifies this product for any serious use and limits it to a typical let's call Grandma every now and then scenario.

has better than expected battery life, i can plug it in over night and expect it to be ready for hours of use the next day if i need it.very simply to use, it doesn't take very long to set up/install at all. just a few mins.the sound quality is great and really loud, i don't bring the volume above 50% most of the timeand its very comfortable and the microphone works great as wellthis headset is well worth the moneythe only con i have with it is that it can be weird trying to turn it on or offto turn it on its simple i just hold the power button, but to turn it off it have to like tap the power button three times.or at least thats the way i have found most effective so far.

These are great for making phone calls from home. Being part of the new generation of people without home phones, this combined with Google Voice or Skype validates my decision to not have a home phone. I always just use it until the battery runs out and recharge, so every once in a while I may need to take a call or two with my cell phone instead.I went with Plantronics because before I started working from home I used this brand at two other jobs so I trusted it. The sound quality is great, you can increase the volume right from the unit and also mute it by lifting up the mouthpiece. The people on the other end can also hear me very clearly. Range could be longer. It starts to cut out of you get too far away so don't expect to use this for anything too far away from desks or on the other side of a door or wall. For what it saves on phone bills though it's worth it!

I like this unit a lot I was able to listen to it the entire range my house without cords unfortunately there was some intermittent problem which caused to cut out at least once a minute for like two – 3 seconds at a time since there is no way To adjust the frequency channel or anything like that since there's no software and nothing on the unit that can really be adjusted I was forced to send them back I tried everything I tried adjusting my router all 10 of the USB ports on my computer and nothing would clear up the interference and no choice but to not use the product it's a nice product and sounds great and it works other than the intermittent way out it was great you think with such a nice product did make a way to adjust the frequency but they don't gather works or doesn't and if it doesn't you don't have a choice

Clarity and usability of this headset, alone with a great price (relative to others I've tried), make this a good buy. The only problem I've had is that its battery charge doesn't last very long. I bought the wired version as well so that if I'm going to be on a headset for more than 2 hours I don't have to worry about dropping out in the middle of a call.The voice and sound quality is outstanding. I use it for phone calls and even recording. Love being untethered from the computer. The large ear muffs keep sounds out and cover big ears, such as mine. Again, this is a winner on every level except the battery life, which is under 2 hours of use. It can be shut off but I don't find that useful - sometimes it goes into a pairing loop instead of shutting off further draining the battery.

I've had my set for about 6 months now, and I love it. Like most reviewers here I will say that it is slightly annoying that you cannot use and charge the headset at the same time. My battery has not stopped holding a charge but I do believe it is possible to replace the battery with a little soldering when it finally does die out. The battery is located under the right ear speaker and looks like a cell phone battery(3.7V, 500mAh). A local Batteries Plus([....]) should be able to figure out what battery is used easily. The sound quality is pretty good for being wireless, its low end is a bit high but you can EQ your computer around to fix it. Also there are a few times while I am right next to my computer the sound distorts for a second or two but that may be because my home phone and my wireless router are both 2.4GhZ wireless as well, there may be some crossing signals now and again. The closed ear design is pretty comfortable to wear in short sessions but can get a little tight after 4 or 5 hours also not having contacts and wearing glasses doesn't help the earpiece from my glasses gets squeezed between my ear and my head. The microphone is of a pretty good quality even now I am sitting two feet from an air conditioner(on high) listening to the microphone and can only hear a very faint hum. The range is pretty good about 30 feet in my house(keep in mind that the signal travels through two walls at 30 feet) which is enough to get to my kitchen, pantry and even my bathroom(I know TMI). The controls on the left speaker are a pretty cool feature, while washing dishes or cooking dinner I can leave iTunes running on shuffle and still have control over the volume and(albeit limited) song played. Set up for the whole thing is a complete breeze, the only thing you may have to do after plugging it in is tell windows that these are your default speakers. My only complaints are the fact that it cannot be used while being charged, there is no sort of audible low battery alert so when its time to charge the headset just turns off(the led does blink red however but you can't know this while wearing the headset), and the dongle that comes with it is slightly lager that I thought, it sticks about 2 inches out of my laptop, it's probably my own paranoia but I am afraid I may break it one day while setting my laptop down in a confined space. All around the construction feel pretty solid and they are pretty lightweight, they feel about as heavy as any other headset I've worn. In my opinion these are a pretty solid headset for general use and inexpensive for being wireless too. I use mine for gaming(with voice), music, and movies and that's all I need them to do.

This headset is really awesome. I work from home permanently so I need a really good headset that will give off a good vibe because I am on the phone all day with clients and want them to be able to hear me without any background noise and static. I have not had one complaint since I've started using this headset since I started using it. I love it and it has good range and I can walk around when on calls without anyone noticing. I wish it had a mute button instead of having to lift the mic up, but I can live without that. I also wish that I had known that when the battery dies you have to replace the headset completely. That's kind of a bummer. But still not enough to make me "like it". I do love it and hope the battery lasts at least a year or two. Definitely a step up from my Logitech wired headset which I still have as a back up.

Bought two of these about two years ago from Amazon, both are dead now due to the battery not holding charge.Generally speaking, the sound quality is ok, but far from "good". It gets really bad when you watch movie where the sound become "twisted" every once in a while.But I didn't use it to watch movie that much, so I kept them. But a few month later, the battery life started to drop significantly. So every time I want to use it, I found it out of battery. Worst yet, you cannot use it while it is charging. So I basically left them on shelf and only managed to use them less than 10-15 times in total in 2 years. Yesterday I tried to use them again after having charged them for 24 hours. They lasted for about 10 minutes ..... --- That's it!I thought of changing its battery, so I opened the headset, and found out it's use 500MA 3.7V battery pack with 3 wires. I'm not sure what that 3rd wire is. All what I can find are similar 2-wire batteries on ebay. But I cannot find any 3 wire ones. So they are officially non-repairable.My conclusion --- I would not buy it again.

Being off a wire is a real convenience. Range is good. I use this with Dragon speech recognition software which tests and has rejected headsets before it it will use them. This one passed.My only caution is that the USB cable to charge the headset could be longer - it is about 1.5 feet. It also requires 2 free USB ports for convenient use, although you could use only one if you are willing to pull the USB receiver while charging and then replace it.You can't use it while it is charging (even with two USB ports) but a full charge only takes 3 hours and they say it lasts 8 hours. I just make a point of plugging it in before sleep and using the switch on the headset to turn if off when leaving for a lengthy period during the day. I get through a day on just the overnight charge.

I bought these because I was tired of my corded headsets always tearing up in the corded part. This set is great for sound quality. The battery life is also good. I've used them up to 8 hours straight and they still had a charge left. The wireless range varies, but i can usually walk 20 feet from my computer before I start to lose reception. The 2 things I would change would be to add a battery life indicator and make the padding size of the ear pads larger and softer. I have small ears and the pads on there begin to hurt after extended wear. Otherwise, this was a great purchase and I do recommend this product.

As a wireless headset, the quality of sound is excellent, for both microphone and headphone. The wireless connection is reliable for an office area of about 1000 sqf, unless there is a furniture or wall interrupting the line of sight. (I use it for skype on MacPro.) If you are using the headset for regular business, say up to 4 or 5 hours per day, this product is probably near perfect.However, there are a couple of negatives.The headphone pads are small, and they press down the ear. This is not as comfortable as large supraural headphones, if you use it for hours.The battery empties easily, and I probably get 6-8 hours of use per full charge. I want the battery to last 24-30 hours of use per single charge.The headset does not function while it is connected via USB for charging. This is regardless of whether it is connected to a computer or a charger. (When I was using a USB headset with a long USB extension cable (with a built-in amplifier), I never had to worry about battery running out.)The microphone easily picks up wind noise, and it is loud compared to some other headsets. In an office environment, if you have a ventilation port or a fan nearby blowing wind near you, or if you use it near an open window a lot, your recording signal is probably badly corrupted by the wind noise. Try some other headsets and microphone for comparison. There's a big difference.

As a rule i'll only use headsets. Around here a lot of people don't like my music, don't want to hear loud explosions, hear another movie going, hear cursing from online gaming, you get the idea. I never treated my wired headsets badly, but they always seemed to fail at the cord / earphone connection and i'd lose sound in one ear. I sometimes lost the microphone too. The longest i had a pair was 7 months before it recently failed. For people who run into this problem a lot, or just want a little walk around freedom, this headset is made just for you.Let's get on to the important stuff:Sound Quality - 4.5/5I honestly used an onboard sound card before this headset. i never had a reason to put a new one in because short of surround sound there really wasn't any improvement room. Same goes for this nifty little device. The sound quality is just as good or better as most onboard soundcards. as long as you're near it, no stuttering, no lack of bass, nothing. You can't tell this is a wireless version. The only thing i've run into, once, was for a couple seconds i got random garbled noises, and then it fixed itself. Wasn't any louder than what i was listening to, so no ear hurting problems.Connectivity - 4.5/5Now, this is where the headset really excels. Installing it and connecting it is so easy. Simply plug in the USB wireless adapter, and voila it has installed itself in a few seconds. Now you should see the USB part blinking. Push the power button on the back left ear, now it should blink blue once or twice, then they both should turn solid. Voila! it's connected and ready to go. Now, the only major issue here that you need to note that another reviewer said: If you're listening to music or doing something that involves sound, you'll need to close it and open it again. I suspect it is because it has to rework the soundcard output, but no matter, it's not a big deal. Now, i've gone about 20-30 feet and still heard sound. i've also been 15-20 feet behind a wall and fridge and still heard sound so, it's not bad for relatively new technology. When you lose sound, you get a faint beeping noise letting you know it's trying to reconnect.Battery Life - 5/5When i first used it out of the box without charging it, it lasted about an hour. Enough time for me to play with it and see how well it worked. As the battery runs low, you don't get any warning signs. Sound quality just before it shuts off is just as good as when you started. After the brief play period, i plugged it in to charge using the USB charging cable that comes with it. (Note, you cannot use the headset while it is charging. it seems to have a charge state and a run state and will flicker in and out of both resulting in hearing something for a second, and then 3-4 seconds of silence. Sounds annoying, but unless you are going to use it constantly, it isn't a big issue. After a full charge, this baby can go for 7-8 hours minimum. I went to bed before i could find out how much of a charge it had left. A nice feature: Most USB devices shut off or won't charge when the computer is turned off. This headset did. I left it plugged in over night with the computer off and came down this morning to a fully charged headset.Microphone - 5/5The headset unfortunately only lets you use the left ear for the mic, you can't turn it to the otherside, but it's with good reason. When the microphone is up, mute is turned on, and it doesn't draw power. Helps add more time to the battery life, nothing to shake a stick at. You can't flex it, but it picks up your voice fine. I played with 60-80 people on various games and only got 1 complaint about the mic. I suspect it had something to do with their computer or internet connection. From what i could hear using a couple programs, it sounded about the same as any decent wired headset.Controls - 5/5on your left ear you have a few handy controls. you have a +volume button on the top of the outside of the frame, -volume at the bottom, a pause/play button towards the front, and a skip button towards the back. No matter what you're doing, it's easy and fast to adjust the volume or pause music. Fantastic placement of buttons.Comfort - 5/5This is the ONLY headset my ears haven't started to ache while wearing. they fit snugly on your ears, but they don't cut off circulation, and they have a nice soft pleather like material that cushions your ears and the bar that rests on your head. Don't get me wrong, you can feel the headset there, but it isn't heavy, it isn't tight, it feels natural.As a whole, this is the best headset i've ever purchased. Also, considering how few choices there are on the market for wireless headsets, this is the way to go. And it's cheaper too. I give this 5/5 stars because the minor problems are just that, minor. they don't really detract from the usage, and what it's supposed to do it excels at. As this technology ages, this is what the newer headsets need to be based on and refined.

This is a bit bulky. but comfortable enough. The fact that you can't use it while charging is lame. Really not an ideal feature. But obviously you have to constantly plug in when not in use. I also don't like that I can't walk very far and still hear things. From my desk to kitchen is 10-15 feet.. and I lose connection. not very helpful.I previously owned Logitech Wireless Headset H760 With Behind-the-head Design. And i could walk outside the house and still hear things. And you can charge while using. BUT cheaply made.. broke so easily. in two different places, used tape to keep it together. So i had to buy something that was stronger, which this plantronics audio is.. i don't see it cracking in half.. but other faults. So i'm still in search of an affordable (or unafforable!) perfect wireless headset with speaker.

When we pared down our landlines to prepaid mobile phones, we wanted a cost effective way of making calls to friends and family outside the country and decided on Skype. Since we share a home office, having the call come over the speakers wasn't very private and distracting for the other person. We decided we needed a headset and I liked the idea wireless capability and a folding mic boom to get it out of the way. I'm marking it down one star because the ear cups are a touch small and don't go completely wrap the ears, and battery life could be better.Pros: lightweight, folding boom auto mutes when folded up, priceCons: battery life could be better, ear cups a touch on the small side.

The Plantronics 995 headset is a great value for the dollar. Sound quality is very good, and I've had no problem with the range of this wireless headset - in fact, being able to get up to get a cup of coffee or retrieve a needed document while taking business calls is my favorite feature. My only complaint is that I was used to a much lighter headset. These kind of clamp onto your ears, rather than lay lightly upon them. And for all that tightness, they don't really filter out outside noise as well as you'd think they would. I haven't worn them for longer than an hour-and-a-half at a time, but after 60-90 minutes, I'm rather glad to take them off, as the pressure on your head, while not painful, is not something you can ignore. I would be unlikely to have to wear a headset for longer than that, so it's something I can deal with - but if you spend a lot more time than that with a headset on, you may want to think about that.

They sound great both to me and the person I'm talking to. I can move around freely without cords getting tangled. However, there's one thing I don't do with these that did do with the simple corded headset: answer the phone. The reason I don't answer the phone with these is that they are very difficult to use. I make phone calls with it because I have time to set everything up before starting the call, but while the phone is ringing, I don't have time to setup everything to answer the call.I'm using Ubuntu Linux so I don't know what it's like in Windows, but heres what I have to do every time I want to use the headset: plug in the usb transmitter/receiver/soundcard thing, turn on the headset, select sound settings from the Ubuntu volume control, select the input tab and choose this headset for input, select the output tab and choose this headset for output. You might wonder why I don't leave the dongle plugged in all the time? The main reason is that it flashes an annoying blue light whenever it's not connected to the headset, and with the very short battery life, I have no choice but to turn off headset whenever it's not being used. Even if I were to leave the dongle plugged in, I would still have to go into sound settings before and after every use, and I would still have to turn on and off the headset. A second advantage of unplugging the dongle is that the sound setting automatically revert back to the speakers so that I don't have to go into sound settings after finishing with the headset. With my old corded headset, I could plug it into a splitter that the speakers were also plugged into so that the sound was going through both at the same time, and I could just keep the sound input always on the headset. To answer the phone, all I had to do was turn off the speakers or mute them: no problem at all.If someone happens to call while I'm still using this wireless headset to make calls, then of course, it's easy to answer the phone, but otherwise, it's just two much setup while a phone is ringing.The other drawbacks to this headset are it's short battery life and inability to use it while charging.I would probably try a different headset if this one ever fails.

Very impressed with this headset! I believe the battery life said 6 hrs, but I get at least 7 or 8 out of it. Very clear sound, and the mic pics up perfectly. The only time audio cuts out is when I'm in the kitchen with the microwave going or some vehicle drives by outside with apparently conflicting radio waves, 'cause it only cuts out for 1-2 seconds and it's rare.

The best thing about these is that they work. The voice quality is good going both ways and that is the primary reason to own these. I replaced a wired set and these are almost as good sound quality. I first bought a Logitech high end set and the sound quality was poor, especially for the person on the other end of Skype. I sent those back and bought these.Good points:Range is decent with no obstructions but can't handle distance + walls.Voice quality is excellent.Bad points:Little or no sidetone, the ability to hear my own voice when talking. This is weird but you get used to it.Marginal comfort. Unfortunately my ears aren't square so they don't fit the cups too well. When you first put them on it feels really odd and not comfortable, but after a few minutes I don't notice anymore. Not too bad.Can't charge while using. Not a big deal, I just keep them charged.It's kind of sad that two brands of expensive wireless headset aren't nearly as good as my old cheap wired ones.

I just got this headphones. The headphones work very well, no complaints at all, but the mike just doesnt go to mute. I bought it because Im on voice calls on pc the whole day and I really wanted the liberty of being able to walk around and stretch my legs for a bit. Unfortunately, I cant use it for voice calls, because I flipping the microphone up doesnt mute it and if I need to cough or sneeze, theres just no way to mute this headset.

I purchased this headset because I was tired of running over the wires on my previous one with my computer chair. So far, the battery life has been good; I plug it in to charge every night. The sound quality is also great while in range of the transmitter. I took off a star for two reasons. The first is that while the sound quality is good, I wish the range of the transmitter was a bit broader. If I go downstairs to get a drink, my headset cuts out and then I miss part of whatever I am listening to; I only have to go back in range and I can hear it again, but it is a tad on the annoying side. The other reason I took off a star is because the earpieces are not as comfortable as some of the other headsets I have owned. They are a bit smaller, so they press hard against the top ridge of my ear and that hurts after a while; I feel that the padding around the ear is a little too thin. The earpieces are also leather, which is not quite as comfortable as the velvet I've had on others. All in all, this is a great headset at a decent price. (I did get it on sale.) You definitely get good value for the money.

First, I must say I absolutely loved this headset for as long as I had the ability to enjoy it.Sound quality is pretty good considering the fact they are limited by the fact it needs to be able to work without an endless stream of energy for more than 5 minutes..The headset is very comfortable. I have no problem wearing it for hours. The wireless is incredible. I'm able to go pretty much anywhere in my house. It is able to stay connected without any problems once-so-ever. Sound blocking is also really nice.The catch? Well, that fragile little USB receiver can't be replaced. I recently lost mine after taking it with me for a trip.I emailed Plantronics. A day later, they send me this statement:"The USB adapter is not available for purchase by itself, so to replace the USB adapter, the whole headset will need to be replaced."Well, at $60 here on Amazon or $100 on their own site, that isn't an option. Not to worry, if you happen to have a proof of purchase (Because having the headset does not prove it is yours and they will treat you like a criminal until you prove you aren't) you can have it sent in and they will send you a new one for a fee... Umm... Why can't I just buy an adapter?With my Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse, if I ever break the receiver, just head to their site, search it, buy a new receiver for $10, sparing me the $120 to replace the whole set. If my mouse or keyboard broke, I would stick with them and buy the same model. As soon as this headset's (Non replaceable, I might add) battery dies, then I will be completely fine with tossing it out and trying another company... And never buying Plantronic again. Their customer support is laughable at best.Another problem I have noticed. People, this is not bluetooth. It uses their own in house system using radio frequencies.
