Plantronics Discovery 975 minimalistic bluetooth headset

Description and specifications

First, let’s explain the title: Plantronics Discovery 975 is a high end bluetooth headset, and is minimalistic only in design, not features of price. The Discovery 975 received in August 09 CNET’s prestigious “Editors’ Choice” Award, all being possible to the mix of technologies and features incorporated in this headset: Dual-mic AudioIQ2 technology reduces background noise, a patented gel ear tip offers very good comfort and a secure fit during use of the device, plus maybe the most inovative feature: included leather carrying case with LCD display that shows remaining battery life and charges the earpiece while storing it.

Other important features are multipoint connections and voice prompts. Not all is good, as there have to be some weak points, and in this case it’s about the multifunction button that’s pretty hard to press and the tiny volume keys. You’ll get used to them touch after a while. Where the Plantronics Discovery 975 really shines is the call quality, which is among the best in current offerings, thanks to wise use of noise canceling filters used and WindSmart technology that offers three levels of protection against the outside elements: grooved vents are used to deflect the wind, acoustic fabrics block it and electronic filters remove wind noise in the earpiece.
