 Sleek, sexy little headset doesn't sacrifice form or functionJul 25, 2008
By Jennifer Ray
The search for the perfect Bluetooth headset is never-ending, it seems. In the last 3 years, I've gone through more brands and models than I care to think about. Now I've tried the Plantronics Discovery 925, and tell you with no hesitation that it is in the top two of those I have used.
The Plantronics Discovery 925 is more an earpiece than a headset, with an earbud that fits inside the ear with surprising comfort, rather than an earloop that hangs over the ear. This means that it is much more comfortable to wear with eyeglasses and/or sunglasses. Indeed it is so comfortable that I sometimes forget I am wearing it.
Pairing the device is a snap, and while my old Jabra headset frequently lost its pairing (weekly at least), the Plantronics Discovery 925 has not yet.
The sound quality is tremendous. Audio is crystal clear from both my side and on the caller's side, if my friends and family are to be believed. LOL
Plantronics touts this headset as having great noise reduction technology, and I will say that it is better in the noise reduction arena than all but one of the headsets I've tried in the past. The only headset I have personally tried that surpasses the Plantronics Discovery 925 in noise reduction is the Jawbone headset.
What I really love about the Discovery 925 is the charging options. This headset comes with both an AC charger cable and a USB charger cable. Not only that, it comes with a compact charging case. You can charge the headset either in the case or directly, using the same cables for each. The beauty of the case is that it charges alongside the headset when you have it plugged in to electrical power. Then when your headset's battery dies, you simply put the headset in the case to recharge on the go - WITHOUT connecting either the case or the headset to electrical current. I've purposely let the headset's charge completely drain and charged it with the case, and found it worked admirably. And to top it all off, the Plantronics Discovery 925 charges fully in just a couple of hours, whether via electrical current or the portable charge case.
Now here is where I prove what a woman I can be. The last quality I want to point out is purely cosmetic - its appearance. This is by far the most attractive headset I've ever seen. It's design almost looks like a cufflink or tie clip. It is sleek, innocuous, and comes in three different colors: black, gold, and pink. Personally, I like the more unobtrusive black model myself, but for those who want a little bit livelier hue, the other options work too. Yeah, I know, the appearance is a pretty frivolous virtue, but as often as we wear these things nowadays, it is nice to find a Bluetooth headset that doesn't have to trade form for function.
For the best in noise reduction, Jawbone's Bluetooth headset is the overall winner, but Plantronics Discovery 925 runs a very close second in this category. In all other categories, I would choose Plantronics as the number one headset.

Really, this one works!Jul 21, 2008
By Dave Mc.
I tried four different bluetooth devices in one month, back to back, and this one was far and away the best. It fits with the simple soft plastic "clip" and it is so lightweight that you will seriously forget that it's there. Incoming quality is good, and there are no annoyingly loud beeps (such as with the Jawbone!) or strange tones that come from it. Most important: PEOPLE CAN HEAR YOU. it' s amazing; this is the only bluetooth headset that actually performed it's intended purpose without difficulty. The noise canceling system seems to really work well. The padded case (with a storage battery inside it!) is really great for traveling, and even for carrying in your pocket once you arrive somewhere and don't need it in your ear anymore. A great, complete package. Strongly recommend it.
Other devices I tried: An older Plantronics (655? can't remember), which didn't fit and had a proprietary earbud piece you couldn't replace; the Jawbone, which screems in your ear as goes in and out of range (and I broke the clip off of it in one week); Motorola HV10, which did not really provide any useful audio connection in either direction, and then this one, the 925.

Finally, a Bluetooth that works!Sep 02, 2008
By F. Munoz
I'm thrilled with my Bluetooth earpiece. While the silicone ear insert took a day or so to get used to, I now love it. It's the first earpiece that I have not had to fuss extensively with fit and NEVER with sound quality!!

Best BT I have owned!!Jan 22, 2009
By M. Montgomery
I have had several BT headsets and the quality of the 925 is hands-down better than any. Pairing it to my Blackberry Curve was a piece of cake, and subsequent pairing is flawless. Extremly windy days walking outside can be hard for me and the caller to hear, but other than that no complaints.

plantronics 925Nov 29, 2008
By Eric Rosin
had a little problem at first, getting the correct ear piece to use, took some time with two of the sizes.
light weight, sometimes forget I have it on.
lets me know I have a call, before the phone rings.
have NOT had any trouble hearing in some very noisy conditions where I work.
I like it better than some I have had, that hang over the ear.
