GREAT BUY IF THEY WORK RIGHT.Vendor has done all they need to do for me but I will be keeping this item. Thanks to the Vendor for a job well done. Vendor I bought from has offered to refund money but does not have one to replace with. Mine does not work as well as the one I had before for 3 years. Blocks out noise really well. Bluetooth works fine in strong winds. Not too good on holding charge but still is OK for the price. I plan on keeping because these are too hard to find and are really the best on the market.
Overall if you are lucky enough to find a headset in great condition it would be a good buy. Amazon sent me a replacement and that worked only for few months. After couple of weeks, I couldn't charge the headset at all. Gave 3 stars because as long as it worked the call quality was good, no static even when I was outdoors or driving. Even though it was a bit heavy/bulky the call clarity was very good. Was able to pair it with my Treo 650 without any issues. The headset was getting discharged pretty fast with talk time of only 30 mins tops or standby time of half a day to a day tops.
I used the headset a lot, pairing it with a Motorola V551 phone.The windstop technology does work. I would say that it has a practical life of about a year. But, hey, I'm a geek, anyway.I wish Logitech would release an improved version of this series. Usually what went wrong was that the ear loop fatigued and failed. By the way, I never paid more than $30 for one of these. The battery, after that, finally gave out and would not hold a full charge.
They are a very reasonable company to deal with.Hope this is helpful for you. I used a few of these until each died, replacing it with the next one. Logitech is a great company, and they would replace the whole unit, which was nice, but the ear loop would then fail after six months or so.Electronically, the headset seemed to work pretty well. This model is discontinued, replaced by the Mobile Traveller, which is very similar in function, and also has an ear loop fatigue problem, though if you are very careful, you can avoid this.Not the sexiest looking headset.
Sound quality was loud enough, but poor (lots of static) with several different phones. The instructions were sorely lacking. Two failed attempts for Logitech are enough, time to look elsewhere. I tried both this bluetooth headset and the HS04 V01. Neither felt comfortable on either ear. Worst of all was the battery life - talk time of about 10 minutes just after a full charge (and with attempts to condition the battery).
It was cheaper, so I thought, why not. I'll never go cheap with bluetooth again.
If I could give less than one star I would. It just always falls off, and is just plain annoying.
This thing pokes off your head like some kind of growth, and no, it's not adjustable. Plantronics all the way from now on.
I bought this when I gave my Plantronics headset to my husband. BAD IDEA.
I'll never buy anything like this again.
