What is the range of this headset? How far away from my cell phone can I go when it's in my ear and turned on, and still hear the other person?

dependent upon surroundings, I'd say 30 to 45 ft. I also fond this the most comfortable Bluetooth unit I've owned (out of 5)

I would say about 30 feet. It really depends though on walls, open space, etc. I saw the other comment to this question about it being uncomfortable - I purchased 4 different Bluetooth (and returned them) before finding this one comfortable.

I returned this headset for the very reason that it was too much disconnecting and reconnecting at short distances from the phone.

It's got a very good range, I've gone outside, upstairs and around the side of the house (about 50 feetor so, on a Samsung Note 2) and still hear clearly until the voice says "device disconnected". You can easily go 3 or 4 rooms away without any problems, and the clarity is GREAT! Love it!!

What is the issue? Did you charge it and pair it with your phone? Also did you hold down the button on the ear piece to turn it on? I have received the best feedback on this headset that it gives the best sound back. I really like it!

I bought one of these that did the same thing. Motorola said return it to Amazon. I did, then bought another one and it did was also bad. Then I bought the AT&T; equivalent and it works fine. The headset on AT&T; is bluetooth which limits the range. The handsets have great range.

Not sure how far apart the ppl are. I'd turn you device on as loud as it can go, & then turn up the LGT to its maximum setting and you'll be able to hear it very well.

This headset works well with my Ham radio. It is not physically adaptable for cell phones. I suggest that ear buds for improved hearing would be better for the application. Use the phone for audio input which it is designed for.

I've never been able to do it and if it could, the range would be about thirty feet. 3M makes a specific headset that is designed to talk between headsets. It's normally used by airport ground personnel. The one designed for headset to headset communication has about a 150 foot range.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think you and people in the room with you will be able to hear the caller well with this, but this will not transmit sound to the person on the other line. That person will only be able to hear what comes through your cell phone. How much they will hear will be dependent upon the quality of your cell phone.

I just read your comments and was wondering which product you were talking about. I also have a hard time finding a bluetooth or head phones that stay on my ears. I have almost completely given up on a bluetooth, but was considering trying one of the bluetooth headsets that go behind your neck or over your head? Any suggestions?

I'm presuming that the BT headset will connect to the phone rather than the range extender unit. If so the BT range depends on the distance from the phone. If anyone knows different pls post for our benefit.

When I am using the headset, those around me did not hear what I was able to hear. I was, however, able to hear others around me. How clearly I heard those around me depended on how high I had the volume on the headset. Hope this helps.

by pressing on the area where it says Plantronics, thats toward the back where you charge it. it has a range of 30ft at times you can get more range, depending on obsticles in your path.

I mute mine using my phone. I am not sure if you can do it from the headset itself.

I've only taken 2 calls with them on so far. But You can hear from both ears. I've had people tell me I sound distant (far away from mic) also.

I don't really use this headset for talking as more for working out though one time I did answer a call while I was running outside. The person on the other end could easily hear me speak to them and didn't complain of any background noise though there wasn't much noise in the background besides the wind. I would recommend getting something else though if you plan to take calls on.

I am not sure exactly what you are asking. There is volume control on the headset. The MIC settings are adjustable on your PC. Not sure when connected to a phone.

I have been using this speaker for quite sometime now and when connected to my cell phone I can walk about 20 feet away before it cuts out. If I have it in my apartment I can have it in one room and my phone be in the other a good 10 feet away and it still works no problem. Not sure if it may be your computer and phone or the speaker itself. I use a Samsung Galaxy SIII and my Laptop which is a Samsung SF510.
