    Battery life is bad. It started skipping calls and reception was bad when I'm on highway. Actually I'm using the headphones that came with my iPhone 7 now. I have better reception on it and listening to music is super. Plantronic explorer didn't meet my expectations. Period!!

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Was surprisingly not as comfortable as I expected for a normal size blutetooth headset. Could be because I tried it after hours of using a different one, but returned it either way. Voice was clear at least. I wrote "not recommending" but I'm not 100% sure honestly.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
