Plantronics Explorer 500: Sleek Black Bluetooth Headset, Model 203621-05 Review

Despite the shabby front side, I consider this headset one of the best. Perhaps this is a marriage and an isolated case, but I am ready to buy the same one again.

Maybe this is a problem with my phone (xiaomi redmi note 4x model). I would like to hear a comment from the manufacturer. This is a marriage of my particular headset or a jamb of the phone's firmware. HELP 11/03/2022 The issue with the robot was resolved by disabling the "visibility" function in the bluetooth settings. I found jambs when using a headset with a phone and Skype on a stationary working computer, but rebooting is the head of everything) A good model, a little "knock the…

My candid take on the item.Very comfortable, good sound, good noise reduction system. I ride the Volga and the interlocutor hears me well.

It turned out to be a little more stable than m165, and falls off or reboots less often. The answer button, in my opinion, is less convenient than the concave button on the m165 was. Alas, there are no ates from the manufacturer, only for top models.

With its pros: I talk a lot on the phone. Previously, the hand was always busy, and the phone heated the ear . Now the hands are untied! You can do work, cooking, cleaning and chatting at the same time ! Cons below: Everything is fine. The husband really tried it, it falls out of his ear, and the mount does not really press the headset to his ear.

Has pros: Very high quality sound in both directions. Noise canceling work Its cons: Broke the earhook. Now it blows out of your ear if you ride a scooter fast

It seems to me that 2 years is not a term for a headset for a price above the market average . and the photo shows what it has become.

I changed the headset to the same one (I thought I got an unsuccessful copy) - no, all the same cod. I took the second one to the store. Bought a Sennheiser EZX80. No cracks. The sound is perfect! It's a pity that the tips are only in English, but it's less annoying than the crackle in the Explorer 500. Its pros: - Appearance is very pleasing - The ability to quickly stick into the ear (without a bow), although there is also a bow. - 2022 voice prompts every time you turn it on (the remaining

in general, the sound quality is good, but if the rubber pad falls apart immediately, no one will repair and change it under warranty. so that no one has any doubts, photo: ate after a month of use: Charging holds 1-2 days, no more. regularly loses connection with the phone. the gum is still holding on, it has not completely torn, I'm afraid not to breathe on it. At the same time, the audibility is ideal, everything is audible in both directions. noise canceling is great! in the cold, the…

I tried a lot of headsets, Chinese of course . =)) but I had to throw them all out . I decided to spend money on a 500 model. Now I ordered a spare for 2500 for a promotion and took 2 pieces for a gift. I bought it myself for 3700 =(

This is the second one, I used the first one for 3-4 years, the silicone nozzle broke, the headset still works well, no complaints. but since there are no attachments for sale separately, but as I read in the reviews, they are on Ali, but not so convenient, in general I bought a second one, during this time I used 3 HTC One bodies, Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus, OnePlus 6, it works perfectly with all , I use it mainly in the car, I recommend it to everyone!

Some pros: Sits comfortably in the ear. If you don't touch it, it won't go anywhere. There has been no disconnect so far. Cons: Music at high volume signs, and the basses generally wheeze. Moreover, the volume during a conversation is quieter.

No matter how hard I tried to adjust and get used to it, the “in-ear” mount personally did not suit me at all. I already turned the small silicone mount in different directions, and pushed the headset deeper into the ear - no, it simply slides and falls out. Also, after a while, the ear starts to hurt. There is no comparison with the previous Plantronics Explorer 50, that one could be worn for days, and the fasteners were reliable, and nothing hurt. Also, the tight answer button on the 500th…

First, the old bluetooth 3.0. The experience of using two Plantronics 500, on three phones !, on all of them after six months there are problems with the headset, the first phone was lenovo, the second redmi, the third redmimax2 2022 !, and again problems with plantronics . plantronics 500 is also 2022! The problem is not in plantronics 500, but in the old version of bluetooth 3.0, after the ate, phones with bluetooth version 4.0-5.0 stop working normally with headsets 3.0!

I'll add after a year of use, the volume up button began to work poorly. The rest is working fine. It's a pity there is no touch control. Has some pros: Good sound, voice is good. For music, too, I have enough. Compact, lightweight. 7 hours of battery life. People like me hear well, unlike legend (I suffered with it). I haven't tested active noise cancellation, but I hope it works. Does not isolate the sound of the street, which is good for a headset. Different cons: Compared to plantronix…

Its pros: sits perfectly in the ear, the ear does not get tired of the device, the batteries last for the whole day in full (talks, music, video), the sound quality is excellent Has some cons: At the first connection with iPhone 8, there were interference during the conversation, BUT then this problem was not noticed

The second headset from Plantronics, the first was the ML-18, which began to glitch after seven years of operation. I've been using it for a month and a half, I like the look, good noise reduction work. Probably because of the good noise reduction, the maximum volume is not very high here - I would prefer a little louder. Compared to the previous one, I don’t really like the fastening on the ear - it doesn’t hold well without the earpiece, and the earpiece looks flimsy and it’s not known how…

Why 1 star. Overall 1 star from Platronics for terrible quality for a decent price. First there were 2 Voyagers. They just have excellent sound and microphone, but after about 4 months of use, the bar on which those excellent microphones are located is glued. Both fell off bluetooth. Stitched, kissed, hugged - did not help. Thus, since the bar with the microphone is unstuck, I decided to take a solid (without it) - Explorer 500. The result - the volume buttons fell off in just a couple of…

For 3.5 years the headset worked properly, in rain and frost. I work on a tow truck. Excellent model. Its pros: Bought this model in July 2022. I use it often and a lot. The ear got used to it for about a month, it hurt from the hook. I tried to wear it without a hook, but quickly lost it. With the help of the Plantronics Hab program, I found it. The sound is good, the noise reduction system works well, the interlocutor hears me perfectly. The battery holds all seven hours so far. Cons below…

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…
