Review on Plantronics Explorer 500: Sleek Black Bluetooth Headset, Model 203621-05 by Micha Gabriel Czajko ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

People who write about the cons, what else did you use? And with what phone? I have been using Bluetooth headphones for many years, I do not use the speaker of the phone, I have tried a lot, incl. gills top models, samsung 910 - rubbish! The last 5 headsets over the past 6 years - Plantronics m155, m165 x 3, a170 (lost, broke physically, battery died in a couple of years) The highest sound quality in both directions, BT range, BT connection reliability, wearing comfort, voice prompts, button convenience , application. Used only with top Samsung phones (Note 1,2,3,4,5,s8+) If the manufacturer sees this: as a fan of the brand, I ask you to finalize the digital noise reduction for echo, people complain only in rooms with echo: entrance, toilet :) The wind works out with a bang! I want rain protection in 2022 in this class of headsets. It's necessary. Phones, smart watches, stereo ears already have IPX7.

Pros
  • Perfect hearing me in the harshest conditions! Very strong wind, bicycle, etc. People don't know what I'm talking on the headset. 3 microphones, perfect digital noise reduction. Perfect audibility to me: loud, very clear speaker, hd-sound (apparently in two directions). Autonomy with such dimensions. The quality of workmanship and packaging is premium. No gaps, glitches in the BT channel. Range up to 20 meters outdoors. Used with S8+/S9/Note9/Note10
Cons
  • Would like water protection.
