How does this compare to the Plantronics M50 - Bluetooth Headset?

The M50 headset goes further without the phone being with you other then that they are exactly alike other then price.

M50 is suppose to not last as long as the m25 it last 11 hrs and the m50 is only 8hrs it's also a very good Bluetooth sounds great

I have the M50 and I bought the M25 for my brother. When you turn on the M50 it tells you "power on, battery high or medium, if that's the case, then connected". The M25 tells you how many hours talk time you have left. When fully charged it says " you have 11 hours talk time". I LOVE that! Plus it costs less than the M50. I am going to get a M25 for myself.

Since I have both and tried them out, they are the same thing (regarding the sound quality). the only difference as you said is the mic.

I only have purchased the battery for the Plantronics CS50 headsets. You might want to google the two and see if the battery is the same.

Padding sensitivity - Alpha = 100dB/mW vs. sigma = 105dB/mW Drivers - Alpha = 40mm vs. sigma = 50mm FullSpectrum Freq. Resp. - Alpha = 80Hz ~ 14kHz vs. sigma 100Hz ~ 18kHz Their website has more details than amazon. There is a slight difference in sound definition. At this price range it really doesn't matter. If you plan on spending more say up to 130+ there will be noticeable differences in sound quality and whether it will be stereo surround vs. 5.1, 7.1, etc My personal .02 - I upgraded soon after buying these as the adapter would overheat and cause the sound to drop when I used them on my pc. I would look at the Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound as they're a bit more, but you won't be disappointed in the improved quality you're getting, and they're wireless... just my .02 and its a very noticeable improvement.

Subtle differences. The M50xbl has 3 detachable cables and of course has a different color scheme. Personally, I'd go with the M50xBL if the detachable cables are worth it to you. Otherwise, I'd save some money and go for the ATHM50RD because they both sound exactly the same.

The sound quality on this one is much better than the m55. I like it because no matter where I'm at it still has a large range and sound is awesome on both ends! Very affordable for such a nice product! Hope that helps.....

l do not own the M50s... so l cant answer your question... However, common sense tells me the PRO700MK2 should isolate better from the outside as they appear to exert a tighter pressure on your head than the M50 does. Also, take into account that the PRO700s are DJs HPs so l guess they must have been designed to provide more isolation than the M50s... Your choice!

The bluetooth connection from Plantronics to my laptop is flawless. It works as expected most all the time. I find that if I have to move around or the bluetooth is rubbing on my face (if not shaven recently) it can jumble a few words. The most important thing to do is train Dragon with the bluetooth and not just a headset...hope that helps.

It does well. I have a Plantronics Voyager Pro which is also a good Bluetooth device. The Q3 does much better at noise cancelling. The Q3 did not work well initially with my IPhone 5. I had to download a live ware update once I did that it worked quite well.

I tried both and took the M50 home with me. Half the price and a much more accurate sound profile. I don't really listen to rap but I do lot of everything else, more comfortable than the AKG K701 I owned previously too.

Basically it has the same number of features that the Logitech M305 has, the side scrolling function is there though no other added features like multimedia buttons added just like the higher end Logitech Wireless Mouse. The only difference is that the Logitech M505 supports the Unifying Receiver unlike the M305 which does not.Though the Logitech M505 needs 2 AA Batteries as compared to Logitech M305 which only needs 1 AA Battery, the lifespan of the M505 has a longer duration which as 15 months (as advertised) compared to M305 which is 6 months (as advertised) though my Logitech M305 lasted for 2 months only on a regular daily use.

I have the e10 with my M50's are enhanced a good bit with it. You will notice the difference in music, mostly increasing the the lows and a little of the highs. Gaming isnt much difference unless it is a game with explosions, which will cause the "booms" to blow you away :) Overall, yes, the M50's will sound better on the e10, just not as big of a difference as the more expensive hphones.

I found it to be no different than Plantronics 33 ft which I have again. I couldn't go any further in my building without losing connection than I can with my Plantronics. I returned mine because that was the main reason I bought the Whisper, plus had other problems with the whisper.

I use both the 120 and the 130 headsets. The 130 has more features and also has slightly more base. Since I have high frequency hearing loss, I prefer the 120. I am able to let my wife use the 130 while I use the 120. One of the charging /transmitters is not plugged into the audio jacks and is simply used for a charging base. We do not specifically charge either headset on one base or the other, but instead use which base happens to be closest or empty. I also know that transmitting works for either, but as stated before the 130 has more features. (which I don't use) These are the best headsets I have ever used. I have purchased three 120's and one 130 over time.

I do not have both models to compare so I don't the Non-Japan Model. In my case, last year when I bought the first one, there was only one model #DR-BTN200 (Japanese version) on the list. I am very happy with this headset. So, I have bought the second one for my wife recently. Here are features that I am very pleased:- Battery is last very long as spec (40 hours, really)- Sound is pretty good- Bluetooth antenna is strong, no interruption when listening music- Voice commands via Bluetooth work very well for both Samsung "S-Voice" and "Google Now" using Samsung Galaxy S5 I do not have both models to compare so I don't the Non-Japan Model.

It's a totally different headphone experience with the open-backed AKG's. I don't have the M50s, but I do have the ATH M40fs, and the K 701's are noticeably superior in sound reproduction quality. I've loved my M40fs's for years, but they sound compressed when A/B'd with the K 701's. When I mix with the AKG's and then re-listen through my monitors, the translation is very close across the entire frequency range. YMMV of course. I hope this was some help.

I do own the Audio Technica M50 and it dose have a great impact on the sound. I recently returned the fiio because to me I hear no difference listening through my Galexy S5. The built in DAC in the phone sound good as with the Fiio. To me the only advantage the Fiio has is the built in amp alone. Other then that it sound the same. One thing I notice is that when you use it with the smart phone and listen like Pandora, you will get EMI interfaces from time to time, especially when recieving signal. Again, recommended head phones? M50 OR M50X you will be impressed with the sound. Beats is all cosmetic and its not detailed when it comes to sound quality.
