Plantronics CS530 Office Wireless Headset with Extended Microphone, Single

Let me start by saying that this is the OLD SCHOOL kind of customer service that some of the young pups out there have never even seen before. These days when you order an item on Amazon (Prime) you think- Meh, it's Prime! I can just ship it back if I don't like it and buy something else. That is exactly what I did. I ordered the Plantronics CS530 from Amazon. There were "buying options" one being from Amazon and three others from various different sellers who's names I did not recognize. I received my CS530 and handlifter... but with a manual, no support and what I can describe as a faulty headset so I sent that thing packing back to the Amazon jungle. I voiced my complaints to a co-worker who had just ordered the same headset. He had shopped around and found the same headset, but decided to order a "used" one slightly cheaper direct from the seller.... Mighty Depot! I reluctantly re-ordered the same headset via Amazon, but this time ordered it from the unknown (to me) seller "Mighty Depot". I received it on schedule plugged it in and got the new headset working almost right away. The crazy thing is...a few days later I got an email from Bill at the Mighty Depot. He wanted to check to make sure my sound quality was good and that I was happy with the product. I responded to the email that while I was ok with the sound quality I wasn't happy with the life of the battery. It was dead within an hour of sitting on my ear. As soon as I hit sent I received a phone call from an unknown number. And there was Bill, ready to jump in and help. He did some trouble shooting and ultimately determined that my headset which does not have a replaceable battery was faulty and not holding the appropriate charge. Bill put a new headset in the mail the SAME day! I asked that I ship the old one back with the pre-paid shipping label he sent me. Great! But I didn't send it back.. . I kept it a few more days and limped it along until my new one arrived. The new headset was just as good as the last, fit well, settings were ok... but back to the battery life. I'm not sure if my expectations are too high, but I started getting low battery beeps inside of -3 hours. My old headset (Plantronics Savi VOIP model) would last 2 days!! So when this little puppy needed recharging after a few hours of just sitting on my head (without even talking) I was a little bummed. Of course I get another phone call from Bill checking in again to see how the new headset is working out. Mind you I didn't call him and he already has gone above and beyond sending me 2 headsets, tech support etc. I'd say since there is nothing technically wrong with the headset I purchased he had already fulfilled his contract agreement by providing me exactly what I ordered. But no.... Bill left me 2 messages and an email because he wanted to make sure I was happy. a few days later I sent Bill another email because I'm thinking... man this guy is losing sleep not knowing what I thinking of this thing. I thanked him again for the new headset... works great. But... not really what I was hoping for. Boom! Bill heard my issue. Understood my needs and without me even asking tells me that he has another model (with replaceable) battery that he thinks would work better for my situation and would go ahead and send it out to me right away. (I haven't even sent the CS530 back yet) Wait...Whaaaat??? I received the new headset over the weekend and while I haven't had the chance to really put it to the test it seems to work GREAT!! plugged it in and calls came in...worked great with my Cisco phone system and even connects to my cell phone via Bluetooth!! Battery life TBD. But I'm comfortable leaving this feedback because I'm leaving the feedback for Bill and the Mighty Depot!! The headset was just a bonus (speaking of bonuses... Bill even sent me an Extra battery and a earpiece kit...Seriously.) If you are like me and just want your stuff to work. Order from Mighty Depot. These people will not sleep until they get it right. Gone are the days of department store shopping when you can talk to a trained sales person who can tell you everything you need to know about an item before you make a decision. But this company is bringing that whole customer service thing back to the forefront. Well done Mighty Depot! ...and the headset is pretty cool too! (Plantronics Savi 710)

I'm on the phone 8 hours a day providing tech support. I've been wearing out headsets since the 90's. I've had this connected to my Shortel desk phone for the past 2 years and have never had a single problem with it once. I was wary of Plantronics going into this - but i have no regrets. pros -Quality is super. I guess the little foam covers fall off but I prefer it without those anyways. The earpiece is one solid piece and super flexible. The mouthpiece doesnt bend but it yaws in and out and there's no need for anything more. -Sound is loud and clear. I can hear everything. -Comfort is the best i've ever had. I'll wear it all day and never think about it once. It's basically weghtless and not intrusive at all. Sometimes I forget to take it off until I'm 10 minutes into lunch. It stays exactly where it needs to be and I never need to adjust anything after i drop it on my ear. -Never had anyone say they had any problems hearing anything I've said -The only time I've run out of battery is when use it a full day then leave it off the charger afterwards. You can talk for 8-9 hours and not worry about charge especially if you dock it at lunch. -connect/disconnect button on the earpiece is easy to find and press. It's just a quick tap and you only need one finger. con -the volume buttons are hard to find and pressing them requires some leverage when it's worn but I only just leave it near the top then adjust the volume from my desk phone. I've never had to adjust volume directly on the earpiece. If you need a headset for work and you need to wear this all day - this is the one to get. A bit pricey but a great investment.

I debated for a long time in getting this headset. I finally purchased it and it's awesome! - The sound quality is great. - It's comfortable to wear and has multiple sizes of in-ear foam or sculpted gel earpieces. - The size of the unit that fits around the back of your ear is a bit larger than I expected, as compared to similar types of ear pieces I use with my cellular phone. But, I contribute that to the battery. - It's super easy to switch from handset to headset with the button on the side of the earpiece. - A great feature is that the headset automatically disconnects itself from the phone when you place it back into the cradle. This is great so you don't forget to toggle it back to the headset when you are done with a call. In my case, I might pickup the handset for a quick internal answer. - There are indicator lights on the front of the charging cradle for power, charging/charged, and if the headset is engaged/active. Great to have these on the cradle where you can see them, instead of being on the earpiece itself. Overall, I highly recommend this unit!

This headset works well (good range and clear sound). However, beware that to pick up/hang up calls you will need either an electronic hook switch (EHS) or a handset lifter. Furthermore, if you use this with an analog phone line, the EHS is the TR-11. I could find almost no documentation on the TR-11, but I could find a fair amount on-line for its predecessor, the TR-1. That was fortunate because using the combination of the CS530 and TR-11 I could not get a dial tone. I contacted Plantronics technical support, but that was a lesson in futility and frustration. It seemed I knew more about the CS530/TR-11 combination than she did. Anyway, if you run into problems with the CS530 and an analog hook switch as I did, try an on-line search for "TR-1". Several on-line retailers had tech tips that helped me figure this out. Forget calling Plantronics technical support unless you thoroughly enjoy beating your head against the wall.

Plantronics sells the best headsets. I had the Savi 700 Series W710. That also is an amazing headset. I switched to this one because I typically put product in my hair and the other headset would interfere. This stays on your ear with no problems and I can NEVER wear ear buds. They always fall out but this fits just right. Quality is amazing, I get about 25 feet on the range and that's going through 2 walls. Only thing I miss going to this model is no blue tooth connection to my cell phone or my computer. I will probably upgrade back to a Savi 700 system but get the W745 to have those features. I would highly recommend this for any serious and avid phone user. I use Cisco VOIP model phones. No issues with any of the models I use.

Excellent son, oreillette confortable et léger. Bonne reception et les réglages sont facile d'accès de même que l'installation.

Easy to wear and optics are what i was looking for instead of the clunky head sets
