This is my second Plantronics bluetooth. The first one is 510 which I purchased for my husband's Tmobile SDA, which we both love and have paired to both our phones. I just purchased this bluetooth couple of days back from a different store and not through Amazon. I did not see any reviews except for one so thought would share my take on Discovery 610. Very sleek and light weight. Plugged it to the power charger and in about an hour it was fully charged. The light stays red when the bluetooth is charging and when done the light goes off. I felt that the optional hook is a must as it doesn't have a firm hold on the ear without it, looks odd but is quite comfortable. I did not have trouble pairing nor making calls with my T-mobile MDA. The pairing was extremely simple and quick and have paired to two devices. The audio quality on both sides is pretty good. Does not have noice reduction so in quite environment it sounds very clear. The volume has to be increased in a noisy environment. The power button has multiple features, hold it for a while until you see the red light - this is for both on and off. The double click (two fast clicks) will redial the previously dialed number. You don't get a feel for the button when its pressed down so you have to hear the sound to figure out if you clicked it twice and the connections is in progress or not. I am yet to set up voice dial feature. Overall, I will recommend this bluetooth. For the price and the Plantronics quality it is a keeper.

I bought this after previously owning (and wearing out) the Discovery 645. I decided it wasn't worth paying double for the "chrome finish" case and recharger/holder again because I never used them. This model -- Discovery 610 -- has performed just as well as the 645 at half the price. I've tried a number of Bluetooth headsets over the last two years and this one is my favorite by far. Two small nits to pick about it, though. First, it randomly loses its connection to my phone. Every once in awhile it just -- beep! -- refuses to recognize that the phone is sitting right there where it was for the previous half-hour. Usually, a quick tap of the power button makes it relocate the phone and connect right back up again. Second, it's really impractical to use it without the supporting ear loop, but keeping the ear loop on there day in and day out eventually wears out the connecting post and breaks the headset (that's what happened to my old 645). I got two years of constant use out of it, though, before it broke. When I dropped my replacement two-month-old 610 into a bowl of water accidentally last night, I didn't hesitate to go right back out and buy another 610. It's a terrific little headset. I just wish the supporting ear loop were an integrated part of it somehow. Oh -- a quick tip; go to a jewelry store and get a triangular "pinch box" as a carry case for it. The larger pinch boxes hold the headset with the ear loop in place, no problem.

I love this headset! It is very small, yet convenient and works well. It is easy to recharge quickly and comes with all the necessary accessories, including 3 sizes of earpiece to make sure it fits most anyone. Good reception and vollume control, good transmission. Clear, superb product!
