Yes, I've had a half Dozen Different Blue Tooth's and This is Best One I've Ever Had. Really Great Blue Tooth and I'd Buy Again When Wear This one Out !!!

Yes you can. I have closed mine many times and talked. Have never had anyone complain that they cannot hear me. Hope this helps.

Yes you can. There is a button on one side of the boom that you can press for 2 seconds to pause/resume audio.

No, it doesn't. But they can't hear you talk when it's in the air because it's so far away from your mouth. It does pick up some background noise.

No, the system allows you to have a two way conversation without holding any buttons down

Not at all. And once you answer the call you can continue the conversation with the cover closed because it doesn't cover the listen speakers or the microphone.

The first question is about the loud boomy explosions and quiet barely heard dialog. Some newer receivers adjust this so the voice dialog is brought up and the loud explosions and music is toned down. I believe the question is: Does this do this and if so how is the end result? Can you hear the dialog and not jump at sudden exceptionally loud background sounds?

It's pretty loud but I think you can talk over it without yelling. I'm not sure that I have tried to talk over it.

Not hands free, but you can answer like you normally would and it will be on speaker.

The phone needs to flip open to use/talk. If you have a case it does not interfere.

Yes it can. It also automatically sends sound through to the earpiece, so long as the boom mic is down/on position. in the past have had to use flaky ap's to send media sound to the my earpiece - this one does it for you. Great talk time too - highly recommended, worth every penny.

No, you don't have to take it out of the case to talk. The back of the phone is glued to half of the case. I have never removed it since I started using it about 3 months ago.Hope this helps!

Nope, open. People can hear what you're listening to and you can hear noise around you.

No. The chime is built into the PAC so you're pretty much stuck listening to the chime unless you open it and take the tiny speaker out.

You can still use voice dial if you have that on your phone. The speaker is on the flexsmart. The sound quality is decent as long as you don't have excess noise in the background.

Yes. It has as "hidden" menu that allows for turning on the sound. The distributer explains it in a YouTube video. It works pretty good too!

They sure do! Be aware that midland has a slight delay on key up (both PTT and VOX) so you need to do something like clearing your throught or sZying "Ahhhh" before talking.
