Plantronics MX505-X1 Windsmart Boom Headset with 2.5mm Plug (Black and Gray)

I have had this headset & used it 4 about 8 months. I liked the quality of sound & the mic picked up my voice pretty well. The volume control & mute functionality was great!
The downside was that the headset didn't fit around my ear very well. It sort of hung on my ear mostly - wasn't snug. Perhaps my ear is small or the headset isn't just built right - I'm not sure. But because of this I won't be buying another one of these again.

I guess it's a matter of personal preference, but I like this headset very much. The under-the-earlobe clip is comfortable & secure & the sound quality is good on both ends.

I seriously cannot understand what gripes the people who gave it one star have with this thing.

Very crappy headset. I had many complaints about the sound quality from people that I called. And the way that it fit into my ear was very uncomfortable.

I've always had problems with my xbox 360 headsets breaking shortly after buying them... So I decided 2 switch 2 something else... I tried this headset & I love it!!! You don't even need the adapter cause it has volume control & mute on the wire. It's Perfect.

I bought this headset based on price & the fact it was made by Plantronics. We've used Plantronics equiptment 4 years at work & they are a great company with a lot of models & styles 2 choose from. I got tired of buying inexpensive headsets at the local big box stores that wouldn't work after 6 months. It comes with two speaking tubes, I use the longest one. I can't imagine who would use the shorter one. I think a longer tube would be a better choice. The comfort & ease of wearing the ear piece is fine, I can hear very clearly & I have had only one person complain that they can't hear me very well. I would buy it again if I had a need.
