Do you have to turn on the SPEAKERPHONE to use the headset? (Then, other people can hear the conversation.)

Headset is used when speakerphone is off. Just like a handset. Headset plugs in to phone and can be used hands-free.

I don't think it would work w both speakerphone and headphones. The whole point of headphones is so only you can hear other end of convo...I hope this makes sense and helps!

I am using this headset with a Cisco SPA525G and no, I do not have to turn on the speaker phone. I simply just press the headset button on the phone when I want to use it.

With the headset plugged in you hear the person through the earpiece you will not hear them through the speaker.

Yes, you just unplug the headset on the phone and then plug this one to the jack. Notice that it is a cheap make (made in China); the one I ordered plugged to the phone, I could hear people on the other side of the line, but they could not hear me. At the end I had to have a refund. It is worth a try, because the company are very good at solving the issues (they sent me a replacement, and when it did not work either, I had a full refund)

If you have the headphones on and you receive a phone call you can answer the call with the headphones on. The microphone in the volume control allows you to talk.

I don't really know. I don't wear the headset unless I make or receive a call.

No. I haven't had any complaints that listeners were having difficulty hearing me. That includes when I use the speaker phone.

Yes, there is a speakerphone function, but I find it handier to use a bluetooth headset instead. Much handier and you can leave the phone in your pocket.

You use the phone's microphone. It has been OK to use so far but some people say my voice sounds muffled on the other end.

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.

Yes, while on the headset I can get on the line and put the headset on mute and still hear the conversation on the other line. On the corded base when you put the call on hold you can't hear on the corded phone. I hope this helps.

The speaker phone part has a volume control which works very well to be heard and to hear. You should be near the phone to be heard. Thanks

Yes, sometimes in public I plug in my cellphone ear bud. But as stated I think mic is in the phone.

If you have the speaker on then others in the room can hear also, but if the speaker is off it is just like a regular phone, only you can hear.

Both are connected, but not cannot be used simultaneously. At least on my phone there is a button to push if you wish to use the headset. While using the headset the corded headset and speaker phone are inoperative.

with my phone I can hear the name through the phone, but not through the headset. It rings in the headset, but the message as to who is calling comes through the phone.

Hey, you can't make a call with just the headset. you have to use your phone. I will like to recommended you to buy it tho. It's one of the best I have ever use. I'm being honest with you bro. I never had a problem with it.

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.

I just checked. It doesn't. I tried enabling it while on the dock or putting the phone on it once the speakerphone was activated. When performing the latter, it simply turns off/hangs up.
