Plantronics Voyager Legend UC Bluetooth Headset - Retail Packaging - Black

This has turned out to be an amazing headset! And a welcome relief from the Plantronics Explorer 395 I was using. It pairs beautifully and effortlessly with my HTC One M8, as it did also with the Samsung Galaxy 2 I had previously. The call quality is gorgeous! I've had several people comment on it. The noise cancelling works amazingly well! I have eaten a meal while on a call, and the person on the other end said they couldn't hear any of the noises, even with the mic inches from my mouth! I've used it while driving in my very old, very noisy (busted muffler) car, and received listener feedback that there was no effect on the call quality/listener being able to hear my conversation. I haven't been outside with it yet, so I can't speak to wind noise cancelling. Years ago I had the old Voyager Pro, so I already knew the comfort of this configuration - and wasn't disappointed! I forget I'm wearing it most of the time. As some people have mentioned, it can take a bit of effort to get the earpiece to sit in the ear canal snugly, but once you maneuver it in place, it stays put with comfort. Once I learned the new placement for buttons vs my old headset, the Legend is very easy to use, and intuitive. I love the ease with which I can mute myself, and change the incoming audio volume quickly. And one thing that I anticipated was more of a gimmick than anything, I have discovered I appreciate more than I realized I would: the voice activated call answering feature. It can be a bit annoying to hear "answer or ignore? answer or ignore?" in your head as the phone "rings", but I *barely* have to say, "answer" and the call is answered amazingly quickly! Makes it very nice for answering a call while I'm finishing up documenting a previous call. The Legend works wonderfully for Skype calls on my HP laptop (after some tweaking of audio settings both for the computer and for Skype). You have to fiddle around with the settings, to make sure you're using the headset mic and audio, but once you figure it out, it gives great sound. My boyfriend said when I switched from the laptop mic to the Legend on our Skype calls, it sounded like I was sitting in the room with him! :) I did have trouble trying to get the Legend paired to my wired desktop - sound was much poorer than with my Logitech webcam. I'm not sure why the difference in quality, but my PC is older and I'm still using XP, so these might contribute to poor audio quality when attempting to VOiP on the PC. I haven't used this headset much to listen to music or audio files, but the time I did, it worked fine - for a monaural device. I can get a good 4-5 hours straight talk time out of it on Skype calls before it tells me I'm getting low, and completed a busy, non-stop phone calls 5 hr shift with 2 hrs charge still left on the phone; it's also a very quick recharge. I haven't tested the stand-by time since I either put it on the desk stand or in the case when not in use. The case works amazingly well (and quickly for recharging), and I love the space for the Blu tooth dongle/adapter. I'm going to really appreciate this case when I do some air travel here soon. Since I bought this particular package, I'm feeling overwhelmed with recharging possibilities: the weighted desk charger (which I've really come to appreciate! soo easy to just grab and go), the case with charging station (and USB plugging capacity), the original little recharging piece (which I will probably never use), the USB/micro USB cable, and plug in unit. This means I have 3 different ways I can charge this headset, either wall plugged or USB plugge. A lot of bang for my buck with this one. :) Update 11/19/2017: After 3+ yrs now of continuous use (8+ hrs or more every day), this headset is just now beginning to not fully charge (5 hrs talk time vs 6 hrs), and starting to drop calls after about 5 hrs of use. I'm getting ready to upgrade to the new Voyager 5200, but this package was an excellent investment and I will still get use out of it as a backup.

Everything a Bluetooth headset is supposed to be. Works seamlessly with both Skype on the PC and my iPhone - simultaneously! The most comfortable headset I've ever owned (and that's been quite a few over the years). Plantronics has always been a leader in these products, and this is an example of why. I also own a Voyager Pro, thought I lost it, so bought this one. Thankfully, I found it so now have both. Here's where the Voyager Legend UC beats the Pro: 1: Volume - The Pro isn't quite loud enough for windy days running or on the bike. The Legend is loud enough. 2: UC - I Skype all the time, and the Legend makes that more convenient and more comfortable. 3: Controls - The Pro works great, but the controls on the Legend blow it away. On/off switch is positioned better, more tactile, and works quickly. 4: Range - I don't see a significant increase in range with the Legend, but it is somewhat better. 5: Charging - magnetic connector! Easy, quick, includes a charging/travel case. Negatives: 1: Comfort - these are by far the two most comfortable headsets I've ever worn, but the Pro is slightly more comfy. 2: Noise cancellation - The only true area for improvement for the Legend. I don't understand the top/bottom mic design compared to the inner/outer design of the Pro. The Pro is much better at noise cancellation. Overall, I'd highly suggest the Legend, but you can't go wrong with either model.

It would not work properly ..what was it doing ? Voice prompt kept saying device connected. Then disconnect during my calls. I would have to turn off a few times to try to get it to stop. Didn't help.

Browsed around quite a bit before getting this headset. It is really good. The ear hook keeps the device from falling off your ear without you noticing. Doesn't even feel like it is there. People at the other end have rarely noticed that I am on a bluetooth device except in high wind conditions where the wind is blowing directly into the headset. Good noise cancellation. The extra charging case is excellent for charging on the go. Well worth the money. Pairing is very easy. Toggling between the PC and headset is a breeze. Maximum talk time is up to 7 hours before the next charge. Range differs based on the environment you are in. I have had over 10 metres range in an office setting and during high winds it is less than a metre or two in an outdoor setting. Not sure if it is a headset problem or a bluetooth signal issue. Nevertheless, in non windy outdoor conditions, performs very well. Overall a good bluetooth headset.

This is the second one of the Legend bluetooth headsets I own. That's how much I love them. It works very well and has very clear sound. I love the way it holds onto my ear: I don't have any trouble with it staying on, and doesn't pinch. My bluetooth connection is strong and without static or excess sound. You have access to volume and several menus on the headset itself making it convenient to use, and it "talks" to you in a pleasant voice. I'll not get into menu details in this review because this is well described on Amazons page. This set came with several ways to charge it. The coolest one is the case. You place the headset in the case and the case charges as the headset charges. Then you slip the case and headset into your purse or pocket, and the case keeps the headset charged for a lot longer than the headset alone. There are two separate led lights in the case that let you check the status of your charge, one for the case and one for the headset. So super neat! I've carried mine in my purse for a while and the plastic case has no cracks or scratches, so they have used a good plastic that will withstand the rigors of what it was made to do. That is a well thought about piece of equipment. That's the kind of company I want to support.

It's a love-hate situation. This earpiece works great. Pairs beautifully with both my iPhone and my work phone. (I love that I can pair it with two devices.) Call quality is fantastic and the noise cancellation works extremely well. I love the case that it comes with (and I love that the case has room for both the earpiece AND the dongle) and the battery life is terrific. I especially love that the case has a separate battery that will recharge the earpiece and that you can charge both the case and the earpiece at the same time or individually. The earpiece does have a slight learning curve (I kept wanting to push the wrong button), but you do eventually get the hang of it. I really like that I don't have to push a button to answer an incoming phone call. All I have to do is say "Answer." Also, the voice dialing works great. So what's to hate? It is extremely uncomfortable! It actually makes my ear hurt. The piece that goes behind the ear is too big, which pushes my ear out and makes my ear sore. Perhaps if you were a larger man, it might be okay, but I am a small woman and my ears are close to my head. It also keeps wanting to fall off. It is too big and It just doesn't fit on my ear well. If I have to hold my hand to my ear to keep the earpiece in, it defeats the purpose of being "hands-free." I like the idea of having the behind-the-ear loop because it SEEMS like it would help it stay on better, but this one is just too big. The next time I purchase a bluetooth earpiece, I will definitely look for one with only a thin piece behind the ear. I highly recommend that you go to a store where you can try this on before purchasing. Note: I recommend that you go to the Plantronics website to see the pictures of all the accessories that come with this device. The single picture on Amazon does not do this device justice. http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/voyager-legend-uc#fndtn-overview

For the price, the Plantronics Voyager Legend UC was the perfect upgrade to my old voyager I purchased back in 2006. The call quality is actually very good compared to my old headset and the functionality is amazing. Here's a recap of why I like it: -Stylish and sleek. -Accessories in itself are worth it. The desk holder really displays the headset well and allows easy access for calls. The case actually acts as a battery pack! These accessories, especially the case, provides my mobile lifestyle with even more mobility. A mobile bluetooth headset with a mobile case?? Mobility x 2. -Battery life is very good. -UC functionality is important for my seamless integration between my iphone and my computer. -The voice-over is amazing. It is clear and concise and tells you battery life/talk time remaining, who's calling, full Siri integration, and more! -Price: Originally i thought the headset was expensive but it really has paid for itself in the functionality it has provided me in my mobile life style. -Business: It looks professional and is comfortable. I was able to help run a business with this piece while multitasking doing other things. Cons: -The price could be a con but if you get the accessories (this amazon item does), then it is more than worth it. -The headset fits well but is a little loose. I am not a large person so this piece sometimes gets loose when i do a lot of moving around. This isn't a deal breaker since I just have to make sure i'm not running on the treadmill when using this headset. Overall: Well worth the price for the headset and accessories. Bought another one since i liked it so much and wanted someone else to also enjoy it. The seamless integration with my phone and computer is something that I value greatly with this product. The call quality is great but can never be as good as the actual built-in microphone of the phone; however, it is very good for being bluetooth. Connectivity is always there and have never had a problem. If you are in the market for a professional bluetooth headset and the efficiency of a high quality company and product, this headset is definitely worth the investment. The customer support is also amazing and is more than willing to help with any problems or concerns you may have. I have my trust in Plantronics and have even purchased headsets from them for my business. Great company, great products, great lifestyle.

Purchased this for my home office as I spend more and more time working remotely and it has made a world of difference whether working or even taking personal calls. It opens up a whole degree of multi-tasking that I somehow never fully appreciated was missing when I would spend hours on the phone with one hand occupied. The sound quality is amazing with this as it truly enhances the sound beyond what it would be even speaking directly into the phone. The ability to tether this set to multiple phones at once is amazingly convenient. Sadly, when I work from home, I literally am tied to my personal cell, work cell, and a "soft" phone that connects my office line directly to my computer. So being able to wander around my place and take calls without having to be physically near any one of those sources is an incredible benefit. The set may feel somewhat loose against your ear but it always stays in tact as I will keep it on as I even do random handy work. The convenience of charging is another plus as I keep one charger attached to my office computer and then the additional charger in my living room so I can charge wherever I may be sitting. I would highly recommend this product, particularly to anyone that works from home, but really, for anyone looking for a high grade headset to use on the go.

He probado varios BT y este lo tiene todo: comodidad, buen filtrado de ruido, duración de batería, volúmen y muchos accesorios incluídos. Viene con cargador portátil, dockstation, convertidor microUSB y emisor USB para la laptop/teléfono.

I've been using this headset for a couple of weeks. I own other plantronics products that I use in my home office for our softphone VOIP system but I wanted something more compact that didn't require a separate power supply connection like my Savi system does. It has been a painless transition, I don't get the mega range I do like with the DECT Savi however I rarely travel far from my PC when using the phone so it hasn't really been an issue. I like that this includes many options for connecting and charging the headset from the nicely weighted and magnetic compact USB docking station which you can just "drop" the headset into when you're done and it connects itself. Also included is a striaght usb cable for charging with a mini connector which takes no room at all when traveling. And if you are really going on the road, the charging case which holds the headset AND the USB receiver which does double duty as having a built in rechargable battery bank is very well thought out and has amazing utility. Really everything you might need is all in this package. Sound quality of the headset itself is excellent for voice calls, but don't mistake this for something you'd actually want to listen to music on (I doubt many would but it has to be mentioned). Build quality is excellent as is usual for plantronics products of this type and the plantronics hub software is also excellent for giving you the device status and allowing you to configure it and integrate with many different softphone systems. I find the headset a little finnicky to get on your head in a rush when someone rings you, but I think it's mainly because I have never used a headset of this type before and it will become more natural with time. Prior to this I always used over the head band type headsets. Overall I'm very happy with this addition to my office.

Do not buy this headset. It's a lot of money and it will not stay charged, not even 1hour

El producto es de muy alta calidad, supero mis expectativas. Tiene comandos (en ingles), doble cargador, bateria de respaldo, se acompla a ambos oidos, muy comodo. El sonido es de muy buena calidad.

I purchased this headset to use with Dragon Dictate for Mac. I couldnt stand to be tethered to my computer by a wire. It works flawlessly. In addition I use it on WebEx and Skype call...again flawless. As an added bonus, it works with Siri with the same quality level as with Dragon Dictate for Mac. I don't know how many hours I have saved by speaking instead of typing. Finally it is a fantastic Bluetooth headset for phone calls. I would recommend it to anyone who asked.
