An Excellent Gizmo !
Having purchased a new mobile,I needed a Bluetooth that would sit in complete harmony with it. With so many products out there,I structured my clearly defined criteria. Easy pairing was a must, as was noise reduction, crystal clear speech,stylish to look at and comfortable to wear. It had to represent value for money, too. I drew up a comparison matrix and gradually eliminated those that did not meet the required criteria. Eventually I singled out the Plantronics 240. And I wasn't disappointed ! Pairing was virtually instantaneous. My contacts were commenting on how clearly they could hear me - even in the car - and I hardly noticed it's presence on my ear. A superb product. I can't really fault it !

FANTASTICO
I upgraded my phone and wanted to be able to use it in the car. This product was one of the cheapest,i have to confess i wasn't sure it would be any good. I couldn't have been more wrong. It is fantastic, easy to install, not complicated to operate and you can clearly hear the callers when they are speaking.
Best purchase i have made so far.

Plantronics Explorer 240 Bluetooth Headset
An overall excellent product. The built in ambient noise reduction and cancelling software works very well and synced well with my iphone 4, especially for voice recognition calls.

Now I can talk and stay legal
A big problem I had when driving to meet someone was if I was running late how did I let my friend/business contact know? I am delighted that I have found the answer in this small but efficient headset. I found it very easy to set up and once you figure out the best way to attach it to your ear you can drive with the knowledge that you can receive a call by pressing the front of the device.It is also very comfortable, once fitted to you ear you do not know it is there. Making calls is just as simple. Colleagues have told me that there is very little distortion in my voice when using it on the road. A very good buy when compared to the cost of getting a full hands free kit installed in your car, I will certainly make full use of the freedom this device gives me.

Best headset yet
I have had a number of bluetooth headsets over the years and this is by far the best. It is lightweight on the ear, very easy to set up and connects quickly and hassle free every time, well worth the month.

VERY IMPRESSED - DEF RECOMMEND
This little gadget has really impressed me. Its small, light, VERY COMFORTABLE to wear. Sound is crystal clear and everyone has commented on how clear they can hear me. Some have even said, why aren't you wearing your bluetooth !! Definately recommend. My dad borrowed it and prefers it to his expensive (over £100) one. Got to order his one now -

Brilliant Headset
This bluetooth headset is the best one I have ever had! It's light and very comfortable in the ear, sound is clear even on the motorway,and people say they can hear me loud & clear, the battery life is brilliant after a week of not using it, it still connected to my phone when switch on and lasted all day on standby mode, think the on/off switch is gr8 connecting & disconnecting automatically to the phone. Would highly recommend this Bluetooth headset to everyone. Delivery of this product was outstanding ordered 12:30 on day had arrived morning post next day, BRILLIANT!!

Bargain Yet Quality
Recently I have been having a lot of trouble with my Jawbone bluetooth earpiece and decided to get a new one. Since Jawbone are furiously expensive for this market I thought I'd try something cheaper and plumped for this one, mainly due to the reviews on this site. I was not disappointed. It is in my opinion just as good as the jawbone, if not better but at a fraction of the price. If you're in the market, buy it. Sound in your ear is excellent and free from crackle and the person on the other end can hear you just as clearly and it is very comfortable to wear. Can't speak highly enough, just buy it.

Best so far
Have bought and used several different ear pieces over the last ten years, some at twice the price but at last I have found one that actually stays in my ear. Brilliant; I am well pleased.

crackly
I am really disappointed with this product, the line isn't clear for me and I've tested it by calling a few different friends and family. Each time it's quite crackly and the sound quality is always much clearer when I switch back to my original 'wire' hands free set. I've looked at the returns policy on this and I can't send it back because it has been used; I could send it back for fault testing, but I'm not certain that it really is faulty (I have never used a blue tooth headset before so I have no experience to compare against), and I'll be liable for the carriage cost of returning a non-faulty item back to me. So I feel a bit stuck with my options. Such a shame because I was really looking forwards to using this. Ho hum, well, I'll try to post a further comment to say how I'm getting on with this problem if I get any feedback from the seller on this.

Great sound & range. Easy use. The other revie
I bought this on the basis of 1) other buyer's great reviews of the product and 2) the Plantronics brand which I am aware have expertise in telephony headwear.
I was not disappointed. Sound from my callers are great and they report great quality from their end. Testing mainly indoors. Read other's reviews for verdict on outside.
The range seems good. I can walk into other rooms in my medium size flat with the phone elsewhere. So it's a great option for cordless home calls, particular with the bundled minutes available in calls packages these days, even though it was more aimed close promixity to the phone for businessfolk on the move, which I am, being able to keep their hands free to take notes etc or for driving.
Compatibility is as promised, it works perfectly with my HTC Desire Z.
Though it has broad compatibility with most if not all bluetooth phones, it is an ideal companion for a smart phone with a keyboard such as the HTC Desire Z phone because the nature of your conversation may mean you need to dash off an email during the call, or check something on the web on your caller's request etc. This headset frees both your hands for these tasks enabling you to use your Qwerty keyboard phone to the full.
Finally, looks. It's hard to make bluetooth headsets attractive but for the price Plantronics have hit the mark, with a light, tiny, discrete, understatedly superior device in neutral black.

Great product Great Price
Wasn't sure what to expect from a relatively inexpensive headset. Read the reviews and took the plunge. Great! 1min to pair up and I was up and running. Very very light. So much so I may forget I am wearing it. That said it feels secure. Sound is clear and the ear bud fits comfortably. The feature that my last one did not have is that I can switch it on and off during a call and it just picks up and drops at the flick of a switch.

Bluetooth Headset
I found this the easiest earpiece I have so far used. It took very little time to charge it. It 'Paired' with my Mobile in a matter of seconds. It never takes more than about half an hour to recharge after a days use(Today it took only 7 1/2 minutes. The only downside I can report is if you don't get it just right in your ear it can be a bit painful after abouit half an hour. Apart from that "Excellent" thank you.

headset
This headset is adequate. I didn't like the rubber earpiece which fits into your ear. It's a bit fiddly to put on your ear. On a motorway its not loud enough.

Good with iPhone 4
I have only used occasionally since my recent headset purchase, but so far this has worked perfectly with miPhone 4.
As long as your iPhone Bluetooth is turned on, the phone automatically and quickly links up to this headset with no need to do anything.
Should you wish it's easy to switch between headset or using phone in any conversation.
I believe my calls have been clear to the recipient and I find it light and comfy to wear.
