I can spend hours on the phone for work and holding a phone to my ear is not an option, so I decided I needed a small headset or earpiece.
Being by Panasonic, the same as the DECT phone I use, I thought this would be an ideal partner. I was mistaken.
The earpiece is all hard plastic, so it soon becomes uncomfortable in the ear.
The speaker section which sits beside the ear is designed to be used on either the left or right ear, so that's good. Unfortunately it is very quiet. I am in a room all by myself with no ambient noise. Even so it was hard to hear some of the more quiet persons on the conference calls. Pressing the earpiece into your ear helps, but this makes your ear hurt after a little while.
I asked if everyone could hear me ok, and they all replied the same - it's quiet and echoey, and a bit muffled.
So for the three things I need, it was not up to the job on any: comfort, listening volume, speaking clarity.
I used it for a week and gave up when everyone I spoke to said the same and it made my ear sore. I have a bluetooth headset from Plantronics for in the car and it is great: clear, loud, comfy, long life. Think I'll get a plantroncs for use with my Panny DECT.
Last issue is that the wire into this earpeice is very thin - I don't know how long it would last if you were to give it an accidental tug.
