This is my first bluetooth headset, but the reception & the battery life are great. I can hear clearly & everyone I speak with can hear me clearly. I only have a couple of suggestions:1. There should be a better range of volume.2. There should be an indicator somewhere on the headset to determine how much battery life remains.The only other comment is that the power button is slightly awkward. I would consider purchasing another Plantronics headset based on this one.
