Plantronics Mobile Convertible Headset M175C Review

Plantronics Mobile Convertible Headset M175C

(More customer reviews)
I have used the M-175 with our Uniden cordless phone (Digital Spread Spectrum) for over a week now. I have attended extended conference calls and various other calls, using the M-175. I asked the called parties if they could hear me clearly and the response was always positive. The sound quality of the headset from the user perspective is also very good. There is a volume adjustment as well as a very handy, mute switch. The headset is very light and comfortable. It comes with enough hardware to configure it to fit with a headband or an over-the-ear clip. Both modes are very comfortable and can be worn for extended periods without fatigue. The construction seems fairly sturdy however; it is all plastic so I would not be overly rough with it. Over all I would recommend this product, I'm sure it would work very well with a cellular phone as well.

Plantronics Mobile Headset Amplifier with 2.5mm Plug Review

Plantronics Mobile Headset Amplifier with 2.5mm Plug

Let me first say that before you buy one of these amps - try adapter cords from the plantronics quick disconnect to plugs first. Chances are you DONT need an amplifier - and this one is no fun. I managed to get my desk voice tube amp (M10 or M12 if I recall) to plug into my cellphone with just an adapter cord - MY speach volume was down a bit but nobody complained, and I used the cell phone's volume to increase the earpiece.
A well designed 2.5 mm amplifier is a great idea. It sure beats a half dozen adapters to hook up a bigger amplifier and expand/reduce the plug size. However the drawbacks outweigh the product design because new phones like the android based phones and the iphone are using 3.5mm 4 terminal plugs for their headsets, which don't work without kludgy adapters on this amp.
Also consider that the amp is powered by a Zinc/Air battery. They start dying the moment they are exposed to air (you pull off a tape seal over an air hole) - regardless if you use them or not. Zinc Air is NOT a problem for a hearing aid, which definitely is going to get its value out of the battery before it dies, but the amplifier should have used a good old standard lithium cell to run it.
As mentioned by others plantronics uses a cut in/ turn off design to save battery power (I have an amp on my desk phone and I can hear when it cuts out during quiet passages. This can create problems that are a royal pain. No signal for a few seconds and you lost your amp. That's not just annoying - its a bad design. A simple on/off switch would have done fine but people would need to remember to shut it off when not in use.
Better idea - go buy a real 3.5 mm amp and cut the 2.5 mm plugs off, solder the wires, and make a real amp work, preferably one not made by plantronics. This one won't work with modern smartphones which are the present workforce on the market with 44 android designs alone.

Hands-free headsets are not that easy to come by if you don't have Bluetooth. We have cell-phones but it's a work plan so for home use we kept the landline and have Vtech set up with the base upstairs and the a phone up and down. We screen all calls but there are some I have to answer. (NOTE: We tried this on both our cell phone and it didn't work -- no sound at all.)
Mom calls and those calls are usually over an hour. I want my hands free while I talk. I can make supper, fold cloths, spin, knit, garden, clean, whatever. So a hands-free headset is a must.
This is a bit flimsy but hardy enough to last a while (it's inexpensive so that's not a criticism). The sound quality is pretty good if you get it on your ear and the mic pointing near your mouth. Mom can hear me too so the sound is okay going out too. She hasn't complained about echo or reverb or missing words on her end and my end has been fine.
So, if you have similar problems and need to work during long calls, give this headset a try. For the price it's hard to go wrong.
