    Decent product for the price. Only con is the volume is not very loud. If you are driving it can be hard to hear over the road noise even at max volume

    Product works well. Only have one minor issue of product disconnecting randomly and then reconnecting. Sound is great and background noise is minimal.

    I don't have to talk loud and I can hear everything from any caller and their surroundings. I even got one for my Brother. Unfortunately I need another and can't find a way to replace the broken on at this time

    I bought it for my husband who is a truck driver. He thinks it is Great. I bought 1 for myself a couple days later for myself because my pickup is older and does not have Bluetooth. We will not use our Phones with out a Bluetooth while driving..

    This is literally my 5th one (all due to my own mistakes breaking or losing them) You can play music through it or listen to directions from google maps or Waze. lasts 7 hours of talk or music time and recharges very fast. I can't say enough good things.

    Works great for Android phones, sounds clear, and no real issues. Only issue is the charger, it's really short. Otherwise, great bluetooth.

    The Plantronics Explorer 505 is a solid bluetooth. It has very good range and I like the fact that when my phone is on vibrate or silent it alerts me of incoming calls. The magnetic attachment/ storage for the bluetooth works great. Very happy with my purchase.

    I absolutely love this bluetooth! I originally had a white one and loved it, accidentally washed it and it still worked, but the battery life didn't last as long so I bought the black one. Easy to use, easy to pair. I love it!

    Didn't want to spend a ton of money on a Bluetooth because I usually end up losing them or sending them through the wash in my pants. This one seems to have all the necessary features at a reasonable price point. Works well for the most part but cuts out a word here or there on both ends, could just be my service too. Battery life isn't spectacular but the charger itself is pretty neat as it eliminates a cord. Haven't tried it in the wind but would imagine it sounds like you're in the wind. Plantronics are usually fairly decent and have a year warranty so it works for me.
