Uncomfortable and confusing June 26, 2008 I. LM (NY,United States) This was my first bluetooth headset and it was just bad. Very inexpensive, but still not even worth the value. It grips the ear in a very uncomfortable way and everyone I spoke to complained about the sound quality.
nice Item August 23, 2007 Anwar Tarabichi I can say it's a good item but the describtion was not precise. it's only good for using on the right ear and it's an old style .. overall I will give it 4 out of 5 to be fair.
thanks

Don't Get This One December 30, 2006 E. Campisi (Baldwin, NY United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This headset, for my end, is loud enough, which is why it gets a star, even though there's white noise in the background on my end. However, my friends say I sound like I'm in a wind tunnel, even in my own home. Being in a car or outside is intolerable to them.
So, don't bother with this one. Pay the extra $20 for the Voyager. It has noise cancellation. My first one broke, but after this loser model I'm going back to the original.
Overall Good bluetooth headseat December 15, 2006 Chino (Miami, FL USA) 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I've been using the M2500 for about 2 years now and figured I'd throw in some comments in case it helps anyone still out there buying this item. At the time, this was a cheap, entry level headseat with a pretty decent feature set. Now, you can get much better for your money.
Ergonomics:
Headseats that use this basic design (over and behind ear) are still around today. It isn't particularly light nor is it heavy. The bulk of the device is on the part that fits behind the ear so it isn't very noticable. It fits rather securely. I like the "boom" style mics as they seem to pick up your voice better. The "sound" piece looks in photos like its supposed to fit into your ear canal, but it actually sits just on the outer "lip" of your ear canal. If you're wearing over a long period of time, the pressure can cause some soreness on that outer portion of your ear canal. The buttons are mixed. The answer/end/voicedial button on the boom is nicely sized and well located. It actuates with a typical microclick (like on a mouse button). The power/volume control, however, is horrendously designed. It is a multifunction button that rotates up, down (for volume control) and presses in (for power). It is TINY and hard use. I have always had a difficult time powering the device on or off because of it.
Function:
It functions well for an older, cheap bluetooth device. Range is roughly 15-20 feet line-of-sight. Throw in a wall and you are severely reduced. Sound quality is decent. I have no problems listening on the device and volume is adequate. The boom mic works well in most cases. I've used it in the car (with the radio on), out and about (malls, restaurants, etc.) and in quiet locations with superb results. However, in noisy/windy situations, I've been told that my listeners cannot hear me adequately.
Back in 2004, I would have given it 4/5 stars. Today, it still deserves 2-3 stars. Find a better headseat out there these days for about the same price.
