3.0 out of 5 stars Earphone is good, Plug is weak, April 30, 2011

I can confirm what others have written, that the headset itself works fine, but the plug that plugs into the dialing unit is very weak, and the wire eventually breaks. I tried taking the wire apart to see if I could re-connect the broken wires, but the wires are so tiny that they are impossible to work with.

2.0 out of 5 stars Headsets have not met my expectations, April 12, 2011

I have had 2 Plantronics Ct 12's. Love the phone. Headsets have been a real problem. No matter how careful I am with the headsets they seem to last only a few months. I have replaced headsets several times. I hope Plantronics is working on a better design.

This is the original replacement to the headset for my Plantronics CT-12 phone.

I really like this headset's lightweight design, fit and comfort. It has one MAJOR drawback, though. As so many other reviewers have said, the wire that is used to connect the headset to the phone (the point where the wire comes out of the right-angle plug's thicker part) couldn't be made much cheaper than it is. Eventually, the wires inside will break and you will be left with a worthless $40 headset.

My advice: never hang the headset by its cable to let it "unwind" and try never to catch the wire on anything while walking and talking.

3 stars due to the inexcusably cheap wire used on an otherwise nice headset.
