User Reviews

The product arrived within days of the order and it was sleek in its appearance.
Yet that's where the excitement ended. Call volume was low and the amount of static
was unbearable. I really expected more from Plantronics. Too say the least, this
product was returned due to poor sound quality. -- The Discovery
This is a great ear piece at a very inexpensive price... now only if it'd stay together in my pocket.

There's an ear loop that is placed in between the gel ear tip and ear piece itself and every time I put it in my pocket and quickly try to take it out, I always find myself bumbling with three separate pieces. I found this to be very annoying.

Also, when you charge it, make sure you unplug after several hours. I let it charge overnight and left it at home when I left work. When I came back, it freaked out and was unresponsive. I had to wait until the battery died again to charge and get it to work again.

Pros: Inexpensive, comfy, sleek design

Cons: Breaks apart in your pocket -- Breaks apart in your pocket!
I purchased Plantronics 665 headset to replace BlackBerry 655+ by Plantronics that went through washing machine (but surprisingly still worked fine after drying). My wife also has one of these and she loves it.

I like 665 as much as I like 655+. The fit is comfortable and secure with the ear loop. The sound quality is good on both ends. The battery life is sufficient for me I charge it once every two-three days.

The only complaing is that the buttons are a bit hard to press. When I push the main button the ear tip gets pushed into my ear which is not very pleasant.

Overall, this is a great headset at a good price. -- I like it
So far so good. The audio quality can be spotty some times, but I have a feeling that my phone may be more at fault than the actual headset. I love the fact that it comes with a car charger, but buyers should beware that the product coming from Amazon does not include a wall charger. Just a USB cable, the car charger, and the cradle for the headset when connected to the USB cable. The headset doesn't ship with an AC power adapter, so you have to use the USB cable connected to a computer as your charging solution. Not a real problem, but a bit of a pain for someone like me who travels pretty often and doesn't always have a readily available, powered on, computer.

The multi-purpose/call button can be hard to press/operate at times. It also takes forever to turn the device off since you have to hold the multipurpose button for about 5 seconds before the headset turns off.

Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the headset especially at the price I got it for on Amazon Gold Box Deal!

ADD: To speak to the headset's durability, I accidentally left it on one of my shirts and put it in the wash. That headset was washed and dried and still works like a charm. No distortion, nothing. Real credit to the quality of this headset at such a low Amazon price. -- Not Bad, not Great, but not Bad
So far the bluetooth is not quite as good as my stand-by Plantronics Voyager 520 Bluetooth Headset [Retail Packaging], of which I've bought two. I've been told that the bluetooth sounds as good on the other end as my Voyager 520, but from my end, it's not quite as good. The best part of this bluetooth is the vehicle power adapter. All of my other bluetooth earpieces have come with a desktop/wall charger, and the primary reason I ordered this is so I can charge it in my car. When the charger is fully extended and the bluetooth attached, it looks like a huge spy pen. For that reason alone, everyone who has seen has wanted to order one.

This is so cheap, you can order it and keep it as a spare in your car since it's easy to charge and doesn't take up much more room that a big spy pen. -- Big spy pen, at least by the looks of it!
