Customer Ratings & Reviews

Lightweight, easy to pair, great sound. I have one in my ear all the time to receive both business and personal calls on my iphone. Good range also.

At first, I was a bit skeptical that toggling between the headset and car stereo Bluetooth settings would be problematic in the event of answering a call while listening to music. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how the explorer has proven to integrate seamlessly between the two. I am also impressed by the quality of the microphone's ability to pick up my voice clearly with very little added background noise despite the fact that my car's noise floor is pretty high since its a convertible. The battery life is also pretty substantial and I've gone 2-3 weeks on a single charge. Thanks BBY Mobile @ location #138 for the fantastic product recommendation!

I've had a Plantronics before with this form factor and it fits my smaller ear great. I needed to upgrade the Bluetooth version is the only reason I got a new one. Great unit like my other.

This is the second one I bought. The first on for me and the second for my wife. Easy to use, solid construction, sound is great, battery life in use and stand by are good as well. Worth the money.

It Charges fast. It's ideal with people who's always on the go and no time for long charging. It gives you the idea of how many hours left with its charge. Super clear audio. It is so easy to use.

Sound quality is good. Listeners on the other end say it sounds clear. Music quality is not that good but it works for now until I can evaluate others this will be an outstanding backup.

the old one that we ran over with the car had about 12 hrs. batter life. This new one is a bit better sound quality and ear fit is nicer, too, but the batter time is only about 7 hrs max.

the device is the best version of a bluetooth device I have had to date. I have owned multiple jabras and jawbones and this is better than all of them. it was so good I bought my boyfriend 1 too and he loves it as much if not more than I do.

range away from the phone is very good. i can step away from my phone and walk away a distance and get good contact as described in the specs. no complaints with price and performance

I needed a new headset quickly when I was on a business trip to Des Moines. The sales person showed me the selection and I chose the mid-price option . Turned out to be a great purchase. The headset has clear reception and picked my voice well. Pairing with my iPhone was easy.

The clarity is good and i can hear loud enough. The people on the other end can hear clearly. It's simple to operate!

Connects seamlessly with iPhone6. The charger can be hooked to a pocket or purse which makes it less likely to be lost. Holds a charge well, it goes for at least 7 hours of talk time.

The Explorer 505 is a great and comfortable Bluetooth headset to have of you need to be on the phone while driving or at work! You can also listen to music on it!

I keep coming back to Plantronics because of their simplicity, battery life and price. Sound clarity and volume are good for most environments, not loud enough for heavy equipment operators, but good for driving. Microphone will pickup all sounds when working, even around the house. Yep. I'd buy it again.

Highly quality sound resolution. Easy to install. Comfortable ear piece. Excellent price point for such sound quality.

The headset gives me sufficient sound and battery life for a very reasonable price. I do not need high-quality sound as I use this to listen to books and talk on the phone, both of which come through very clearly. The noise-cancelling feature is sufficient - doesn't work in much more than a breeze, but no headset I've ever own does.

Bought this for my wife, who found my Plantronics Voyager Legend to be too bulky and ill-fitting for her smaller features. This is perfect, as the only part that goes behind the ear is the thin plastic clip (vs the entire body of the earpiece as with the Voyager Legend). The sound quality is excellent and the noise cancellation works extremely well. It's easier to talk to her while she's using this than it is if she's holding her phone. Plantronics impresses again!

Very nice, it really suppresses the outside noise so you can have a phone conversation without having to ask the other person to repeat what they said every 10 seconds

I have VERY small ear openings, and most ear buds pop out when I am talking...very annoying. This Plantronics snugs in very nicely and has never popped out on me. The only (moderate) downside was, I had to purchase a usb adaptor for recharging. But, I'm so happy with it, that's OK.

One of the best earpieces I have bought. Sound is perfect and fits and stays in ear all the time. It also was easy to set up with iPhone 7. Highly recommend it.
