Almost feature perfect. Almost...
User: Stephen Feger, Jan 1, 2009
Pros:
No tangled wires
Cons:
Weak bass, earclip not bendable
I purchased one 855 and lost it and still bought another, so believe me when I tell you I like it. It does what it says, it provides either mono or stereo sound so that you can listen to your music and then quickly switch to a phone call and back again. The controls are good and the wire on the stereo earpiece is nice and sturdy. The extendable boom for the microphone works fine, though no one said I used it with said I sounded better with it extended versus retracted. Its a nice, uncluttered design.
So where are my issues? Well, it could be louder, but then again, all BT headsets could be louder. On the other hand, the bass on the 855 is definitely weak. Good for casual music, great for podcasts, but not for the serious music maven. Also, the earclip that supports the 855 is not bendable to mold to your own shape for better support. I would very much like to see the earclip on the Plantronics 520 applied to this unit. Also, the actually earpiece on the headset was less snug than the stereo piece because it is molded at an angle. This allows sounds in from the outside occasionally. Since I specifically wanted an in-the-ear solution to minimize external sounds, this is an occasional disappointment. This would probably be less of an issue with more support from a better earclip.
But from an overall functionality element, I really like the 855. Its a solid choice with some acceptable compromises.
good invention

Pros:
can use to talk with no wires attached
Cons:
short wire attached to each piece
I can use this invention to listen to radio and talk to brother within 20 seconds of attach wire from end to other end. This is wonderful wireless product to talk on mobile phone to phone outside not in house. I do recommend to you to buy. I am proud owner of first generation TREO and internet user.
