Plantronics C65

 

The Plantronics C65 is supplied with a sturdy desktop charging station which can be used as a holder when the headset itself is not in use. Battery life is typically 9 hours talk time – sufficient for the longest and busiest working days – or 60 hours...

The headset can be registered to any DECT compatible, or GAP compatible, base station and, once registered, becomes an independent extension on that telephone system. The Plantronics C65 does not, however, have a keypad so outgoing calls must be...

Great headset - but a little quiet

 

It's been mentioned in other reviews, but this headset is a tad quiet. Fine in my office and has good range to the main base unit. But I'd struggle to hear if there was a lot of other noise about the place.

FAB piece of kit!!!

 

I "work from home" so have lots of phone conference calls, and bought this specifically to allow me to listen/talk whilst still having two hands free to type. I have a BT VERVE 4x DECT phone system, and sync'ing the headset was a piece of cake. Even...

Owned for 3 years - Great!

 

I bought one of these 3 years ago, but as others have noted, check compatibility with your Panasonic phone before you buy. On the other hand, some other Plantronics headsets are Panasonic compatible but don't work with older DECT phones. I have a BT...

Not sure

 

It arrives with a longer safety guide and a shorter quick start guide, which allows you to get started. It says the Plantronics website has a complete User Guide, but it doesn't. Theres just a compliance certificate and nothing else. So it works OK...

Consumer review by:

It's 'okay'

 

As per the title, this headset is 'okay' - The set up is really quite fiddly and not for those short of patience and dialling out is really fiddly as one has to dial from the base station then transfer the call to the headset which can cause a little...

Plantronics C65 Headset

 

Have been using Plantronics C65 in my office for over five years and this is an invaluable piece of equipment. It's excellent. Have just purchased another headset for my other office and would highly recommend this to anyone.
