I work as a phone interpreter and I like the simplicity and ease of dialing of this phone. If it weren't for that, I'd love this phone.I also heard that these headset-type phones are bad for the ear. That said, the ear piece doesn't seem to convey sound well so sometimes I have to ask clients to speak up. Also, the mute button makes a slight click sound that I suspect is audible to the other party so they probably know when I press it, which is often. I have heard anecdotes of veterans in the field suffering hearing loss, but these are not confirmed. They recommend getting a regular old phone with the Y-brace attachment (if you need your hands free to take lots of notes).
for some reason the audio is not loud enough for me, my old plantonics headset phone was twice the loudness of the audio. I guess I need to buy an amplifier to make it louder.
This product is an excellent telephone system device that is flexible to fit around my ears, and I can have the microphone or mouthpiece close to my mouth. Additionally, it has an appealing front face telephoe pad that lights up when a call comes through, and lights in attractive green and red colors. The sound of the rings have a tone and spacing between them of a business phone ring; the sound is distinctively of a professional office ring tones, if you will. Hope you enjoy this famous brand; and the quality of Plantronics for their well-known phone features.
The headset is very comfortable and it comes with two options. There's something like a buzzing sound when you are on a call. The over the head one, and over the ear. The big problem is the sound quality. The noice stops when you press the mute button. If you need good sound quality, look for another phone.
I use this for long and frequent conference calls with a moderator who is very sensitive to unwanted noises on the line, and haven't had any negative comments from her or anyone else. If you're making long calls from your home office the Plantronics T10 is the way to go.
