Comfort and Crisp Sound for Your Ear
Measuring 2.7 x 1.0 x 0.9 inches and weighing a mere 0.3 ounces, you'll barely know that the Discovery 925 is in your ear. But with its striking onyx-black and silver color combination and minimalist features, this one-of-a-kind earpiece will surely get you noticed--in a good way. (The earpiece is also available in alchemy-gold and cerise-pink).

The Discovery 925 is designed to follow the contours of your cheek. It features a filtered glass bead that's been blasted and anodized for a ceramic high-gloss elegant finish. The ultra-lightweight design offers a secure comfortable fit so you can stay connected hands-free for hours. And the earpiece includes three uniquely shaped gel eartips--small, medium and large--that are designed to conform snugly to the contours of your ear without the need for an earloop stabilizer, so nothing will interfere with earrings or eyewear.

Once you place the earpiece into your ear, making calls is as simple as it gets. It has a multi-function button on the diamond-shaped face that powers the device, dials or releases calls, triggers voice dialing, or kicks the earpiece into pairing mode. A second button lets you control the volume. For voice clarity, a 1.9-inch boom brings the microphone closer to your mouth to reduce background noise as you talk. The boom mic also houses the earpiece's antenna. And finally, a micro-USB port is located on the side of the earpiece for charging.

AudioIQ Noise Control and On-the-Go Charging
The Discovery 925 features AudioIQ technology that blocks out annoying background noise in most situations, giving you clear calls every time. The earpiece lets you roam up to 33 feet from your Bluetooth phone and it supports multipoint technology, which allows two Bluetooth devices to be paired to the earpiece. This means you can receive and make calls from two of your phones without having to switch earpieces.

The Discovery 925 runs on a rechargeable lithium ion battery that gives you up to five hours of talk time and up to seven days of standby time from a single charge. And when the earpiece is not in use, you can store it in its unique color-coordinated case, which performs double duty with its sturdy but stylish construction and its integrated rechargeable battery. Not only will the case protect the earpiece from everyday hazards, but it will also keep your earpiece charged. Simply charge the case directly with the included AC charger or USB cable--with or without the earpiece in place--and when fully charged, it will have enough power provide your earpiece up to five hours of talk time for when you need it.

Of course you can still charge the ear piece directly with the AC charger, but with this convenient recharging case, you don't have to worry about your earpiece running out of power while you're on the go. Just place your earpiece in the case, and safely store it in your handbag or briefcase. When you're ready to use it again, it will be fully charged with enough power for up to five hours of talk time.

The Discovery 925 is backed by a Plantronics 1-year limited warranty.

What's in the Box

4 out of 5 stars Great headset. Works with Iphone 3G   August 20, 2008
PRO:
This bluetooth headset works flawlessly with the Iphone 3G.
If you ever need to re-establish the connection with your phone, just hold down the button on the headset for 8seconds till it flashes.

Works well if you wear sunglasses or glasses. The lack of the over the ear portion makes it more comfortable with glasses of all kinds.

Stays in your ear even when running around.

The case is also a battery charger which is great if you tend to leave this thing in the car.

The battery seems to last a long time.

Calls sound nice and clear to me and people that I call.


CON:The styling isn't for everyone.



4 out of 5 stars Excellent   August 20, 2008
I was apprehensive to buy a bluetooth headset without using it once but I heard a great review of this one so I bought it. I am very happy with the quality and sound. I would recommend it.


4 out of 5 stars Great case that charges and great fit   August 19, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have been looking for a headset with a long talk time and one that fits in the ear without having anything over the ear, making it easy to use and remove. I don't keep a headset on when I'm not using the phone. This headset fit the bill AND it has a great case that charges the headset, which is perfect since I stow it away when I'm not using it. This is one of the few headsets I found that has a case and the fact that it also charges the headset is definitely a plus. You can charge both pieces separately or together and they can be charged by an AC adapter or by USB charger - both are included. USB charging takes more time and note that the batteries are different in each piece. Be sure to read the instructions. The only downside is that the volume goes up before it goes down - so you hold the one button down until the maximum volume and then it goes back to the lowest volume, you are not choosing up or down.


5 out of 5 stars Finally a bluetooth headset worth owning !   August 19, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Apart from style, there are only three things that a bluetooth headset should do: 1) let you hear the other party 2) Let them hear you 3) Fit your ear. The first two should not be an issue. Unfortunately, some headsets don't deliver the basics. This one does, and very well. It can be quite loud, if you need it. The microphone is sensitive, but does not pick-up too much ambient noise. To round-out the trifecta, and IT FITS !. Admittedly fitting your ear is going to be different for everyone. This headset comes with three rubber adapters for different sized ears. The nice thing, is that the design still lets in some outside sounds so it can be worn when not in use, and you can still hear from that ear. Okay, I will admit that the TINY size and very light weight - and the cool looks are great, too. That is less important than the fact that this is a wonderfully functional headset.


5 out of 5 stars Charge on the go + Light + Clear Sound + Simple = Great Product   August 19, 2008

I bought this to use while driving only. I own an iPhone and this headset works seamlessly with it.

First and foremost is the sound quality. I've had conversations with it and at the end of my conversations I've asked people if they could tell I was on a headset and none of them noticed a difference. On my end, the sound is crystal clear and I simply talk in my normal manner. This is the first headset I've used and have nothing to compare it to but all I know is that it works well.

Its super lightweight which is huge because there's no piece that hooks around your ear. Instead it sits in your ear but it's so light that you'll forget its there. While driving I'll put it in my ear in case I get a call and soon after I put it in I forget all about it. I'll turn on the radio and never notice a difference between music coming in from either direction.

The battery life is plenty. I haven't timed it or anything but I'll get days of standby and a few hours of talk time. One huge plus is that the case for it has a rechargeable battery too. Say you're driving into work and you find out the headset battery is low. You just pop it into the case to recharge. Then the next time you hop in your car to go home its fully charged. No lugging around a wall or car charger. The case is the size of a pack of gum and really convenient. There's only one cord to charge both the headset and the case. All you do is set the headset in the case and plug the case in and both get charged. Easy.

There are 3 sizes of fittings for your ear. Like Goldie Locks the third one fit just right. I guess you could run into a problem if none of the fittings match your ear because of the lack of a hook to sit on the outer rim of your ear.

There are only two buttons. The first is a master button that you use to turn it on/off, answer/end calls, redial, etc. The second is a volume toggle. The headset defaults to medium. Press the volume toggle once and it jumps to loud. Press it again and it goes to soft. Third time and it goes back to medium.
