I have had this headset for about 6 months and have noticed a serious drop in noise cancelling and range before dropping, any one else?

Yes I have had more problems with the set also. Voice commands are not close to what they were when I first got it. It began about 3 months after I had it!

I haven't had this problem either. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure that the landline is hung up and not on speaker when using the headset.

hi, just to confirm, I have the Plantronics S12. It's pretty good and is "noise cancelling. My knock on the unit is that I can't adequately bring the volume down on the earpiece. To address that, I got some extra foam to put into the earpiece.....

I get some sound drops. Have not figured out why this is but it occurs too frequently for my liking. Any drops at all is too frequent I suppose.

No clue. The seller contacted me a few days ago and said that they had received a bad batch of headsets. They are sending me a replacement and refunded my money. If the new ones work, I'll be updating my review.

I have the same problem. I had to go back and use my long cord earphones because of that. Let me know if you find out the warranty. Thanks - Kendal

I thought it was just me! I got my pair in summer '07, and they failed less than a year later. I had them replaced via Shure, and now the replacements have failed again. I don't use them excessively - they just seem to wear out. Other than the high probability of failure, these headphones are awesome.

Yah you might have a faulty pair. Mines work just fine with the noise cancelling activated.

That is exactly what happened to mine, three other people wrote that same thing I their reviews in the last four days ! It's too bad, I have a similar headset from GG Air, and I love them, I almost bought a 2nd set of these, but after seeing the other reviews, forget it.

I have heard from those I talk with on skype that the mic is buzzing a lot, and picks up background noises. It could be that my sound card isn't good enough to handle it, or that some of my settings are wrong (though I have tried to fix it for a while without luck).

Im also having the same problem. When I remove the headset, my speakers audio dont work anymore.

Yes, I have just returned mine for the same exact reason. The ear pads would slowly seep a blue dye if left on a light surface like paper. I had the headphones for only 1 month and it was not subjected to any abnormal use or environment. I contacted Philips and they said I did not purchase it through an authorized reseller and wouldn't do anything about them. Luckily I was able to return them back to Amazon. I am not impressed by Philip's customer service and will refrain from purchasing their products in the future.

Hi Kathryn K. My headphones worked well for about 6 months. Then left side start being mute, if I want to hear from it, than I have to tap it few times and then it works for a while and then it will mute itself again. To expensive for these kind of problems. But I guess it is to late to do something about it.

I don't have that problem! Maybe the sound software needs updating? or headphones defective?

People I talk to can hear fine but say it kind of sounds like you are in a box. I personally have never spoken to anyone when they have been on a headset or bluetooth device when it hasn't sounded that way. No one has ever complained of static though. I LOVE my set but I prefer the S10 model. Hope this helps!

I have used it - the big difference is in the headsets. You need good noise canceling headsets.

Yes, I had this same problem- worked great for about 5 months, then they just started sounding like a wire was loose. I have now gone to Bose
