A2DP was good, streaming music sounding good enough. However, the phone audio is horrific. So disappointed.

Addisu, to be honest, I found it to be extremely comfortable. But, I do agree that if you are not used to wearing in the ear headphones then it can feel unusual. Anyone who regularlley uses in ear headphones shoudl have no problem.

I want to know who is confortable with that thing inserted into your ear. I bought this bluetooth from Sam’s club last weekend and I am returning it today. It’s sound is terrible and it is not comfortable inserted into your ear. Yes it looks nice..

Seriously? Why would I want to look like a BlueDouche guy from my right side, and a wanna-be secret service agent from my left?

Make A2DP stereo headphones that look like (omg, what an idea) STEREO HEADPHONES!

Make the microphone small, and tucked away inside the headset (just like the stylus on my Wing). When the mic is pulled out, it answers my phone. When I push the mic back in, it hangs up.

Or is this designed for people who wear their headsets constantly, especially in socially inappropriate situations?

Works well on cell phone, audio also well on PC however I wasn’t able to get Mic/Recording working. Other headsets I have no problem.

Noise cancellation is minimal, all what you get is noise reduction through the silicon buds. But then, I prefer to hear ambient noise around me and have noise cancelled only during convesation/music listening.

Audio Music quality is decent but remarkable for a bluetooth headset. However, Call audio quality is not great. Just so so. Volume good. My Nokia HS-12W buds, which is also stereo bluetooth headset is much better sound quality. But they are different form factor.

The power jack! Totally sucks. I can’t say how it sucks.
Finding the slot to plug in the power cord with the special micro USB type of connector is probably my worst part of the day (well, almost). I am not sure what Plantroniccs had in their mind when designing this but they must have been on drugs.

Another small issue: it seems the connection between the cable and the removable plastic thing is getting some hardship. It seems it can break easily, despite the cable being reinforced…

Overall, worth to buy, good investment, as long as you don’t have issues with the above points.

awesome headset.

Seems like Plantronics introduced some really cool features into this headset.
I’m sure that their next model will be even more amazing.
