I have a Plantronics Explorer 510 Blue Tooth headset, and I really like. (See my review). But I don’t always remember to keep it charged, so I run out of battery before I run out of “talkery!”
I was chatting online with a Plantronics customer support specialist who suggested that rather than buying a car charger, why not buy a wired set as a backup? GREAT idea!
The Plantronics MX256-X1* is a SUPERB piece – EXCELLENT sound quality on both ends of the call, with ONE TOUCH Answer/End call if your phone is so-equipped (e.g. Sprint’s Voice Command) It WEIGHS LESS than its wireless counterparts, and is VERY comfortable to wear for extended periods: This unit features a SOFT silicone “clip” that attaches to the backside of your ear, not over the top. This means that it won’t interfere with your glasses like the vast majority of Blue Tooth devices!
* NOTE: It is the X1 designation on ALL Plantronics wired sets that denotes compatibility with one-touch-equipped/voice command-type phones. IF your phone has this capability, make sure you look for a Plantronics unit with the x1 designation.

Works well

Excellent sound quality. Noise cancellation really works. The button on the headset string lets you automatically place a call and end the call. Very nice. Works much better and more reliably than ANY BlueTooth set I’ve tried – and I’ve tried almost all of them.

I own this product and have used it for 1 month. Product finish and quality is good. I bought it to use with our home phone with 2.5mm plug jack. For the headset user the sound is very good. For the other person the headset user’s voice is too far away – but still audible. (They always can tell when you are using it). No way to adjust mic or headset volume.

Great little Headset
This headset is a awesome little guy, works with your 360 and with your phone.

Doesn’t work on the models Plantronics claims it does.
I bought this for my Nokia 6085. The ear bud works, I can hear the caller, but the microphone doesn’t. Do more research prior to buying.

Still haven’t found “the one”…
I used to use the Jabra “around the ear” boom for a few years and it was THE BEST… until it broke.

Really Works!!!
I drive an SUV with a lot of road noise. When I’m on the phone using a headset, people frequently say they can’t hear me well. This headset works great.

Fits like a glove!
I LOVE this headset – it fits like a glove. Never moves, totally comfortable, and I can wear for hours on long road trips – totally forgetting it is there.

Platronics MX256-X1 Earbud headset
This earbud has worked really well and the price was about 1/3 of the cost at the cell phone stores.

Plantronics MX256-X1 review
this product looks good on paper and it probably will work well, if it fits your ear properly. I have used ear-hook sets before, and was very pleased with an older ear-hook unit…

Barely audible
I wanted a wired headset because all the bluetooth headsets I tried with my iPhone proved unreliable. That’s probably more a problem with the iPhone than the headsets.

Incompatible with LG phone? Very poor sound quality.
Seems that my LG CU500 thinks this is not a headset, as it gives a different graphic for this vs. other headsets when plugged in.
