    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Small, light, well designed

    Weaknesses:Minimalism means that various blue and red light flashes require you to consult the manual

    Overall Evaluation: One of the few BT headsets on the market that does not make you look like you are an alien or have some bug growing out of your ear. I love the dual device functionality that allows me to register the headset with two different devices. I currently have it set up to connect with my iPhone and the Playstation 3. Hand off between the two is seamless and works amazingly well. Battery life is good, though shortened since I use the dual device functionality.The voice is crystal clear, both sending and receiving. I wear glasses so I particularly like that this design does not require you to wear a over-the-ear loop like many others. Just stick it in your ear and the sticky gel like material does its trick. I have not had it fall out of my ear yet. Though I have dropped the device a couple of times because it is so darn small and light for my clumsy hands to handle. While it debuted at a steep price, if you look around, you can get a very good price for it, especially what it includes in the box. The included case is very handy - both protecting the headset and charging it when not in use. Multiple charging options are available. And thank you Plantronics for included the necessary cable and not forcing us to buy overprices cables from store! Gets five stars for that alone.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: * Super-light (8g)* Very stylish* Locks in securely in place with very soft clear gel frame (3 sizes provided for best fit)

    Weaknesses:None

    Overall Evaluation: I purchased this product to replace an older Plantronics Discovery 640. This is a superior headset. My favorite feature is the uniquely designed gel frame that covers the earpiece and locks the headset securely in my ear without the need to use any ear hooks, etc. The gel piece is so soft and thin that my ear does not feel tired after wearing this headset for a few hours. The audio quality is great (I use it while driving, so I am not concerned with wind). The bright color LEDs and custom tones make it easier to determine the status of the headset. The pairing procedure is as easy as with any other Plantronics I had: it took only a minute to configure this headset to work with my BlackBerry Curve. The stylish looks of the headset complement its technical superiority. If you are willing to pay a bit more for a bluetooth headset, I highly recommend this model.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: - Stylish- Very small and light- No ear hook, comfortable and secured- Good voice volume/quality even when the surrounding is noisy- Comes with a charging case to further extend battery life

    Weaknesses:- Battery life is only 4 hours- No car charger included- Can't block much wind noise- A little expensive

    Overall Evaluation: One of the best bluetooth headsets in the market considering its size/look, voice quality, and features (e.g. multi-link). Pairs fast and works great with iPhone and iPhone 3G. Very comfortable yet secured to wear even there's no ear hook. Enough volume and clear voice in most environments. Very satisfied with the product!

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: very comfortable. actually stays in your ear well. you don't even know it's there. 3 included earbuds, one will fit you.

    Weaknesses:possibility of losing it, slightly long earpiece makes you look like a backstreet boy.

    Overall Evaluation: This is the most comfortable thing I've ever clipped in my ear. No comparison to any other device I've tried. Jawbone 1 didn't stay on and jawbone II hurts after a while but stays on good. This one just plain stays on and comfortable all day. the comfort of this piece is almost worth any sound quality issues it may or may not have. I have not found it to have any problems other than it could maybe be a little louder, and there is a slight possibility you may lose it because of the fact that it isn't hooked to your ear with an uncomfortable earloop. Not the perfect flawless jawbone II sound quality but much more comfortable.

    Duration of ownership: 1 Weeks

    Strengths: Voice quality, bluetooth range improvement, longer talk and standy time, nice styling and comfortable rubber ear pieces.

    Weaknesses:I haven't really found any yet.

    Overall Evaluation: I previously owned the Plantronics 640 Bluetooth headset, and the 925 seems to be a vast improvement over that model. The range of the 640 was more like 12 feet, instead of the Bluetooth standard of 30 feet. Callers always complained about the voice quality on their end, often stating that I sounded like I was in a large room and had them on speaker phone. I usually wore the 640 headset in my right ear, and placed my phone in my left pocket. That always caused some static in the headset. The talk time of the 640 was 2 1/2 to 3 hours. I can say that the 925 model does not have any of 640 issues, that I can see. And I'm very impressed with the quality and features, and glad that I made the purchase.
