Plantronics M100 Bluetooth Headset Review

Packaging and Bundle
The packaging is no different to most bluetooth headsets on the market and features a similar design that takes me back to when i used to manage a phone shop. Either way, it includes a view of the product and tells us what the main feature as well as name of the product is.
You will also notice the waveform band that spans around the packaging, very fancy indeed. Also there is a little sticker that tells you that this particular headset has a battery meter for iPhone. I’ll be sure to try that one out for sure.
The side of the packaging gives some figures on talk time and standby time as well as the range of the headset and it’s weight to give you an idea as to how heavy it will be once it’s jammed into your ear.
The rear is where we always find mass amounts of information on any product and this is no different. In many different languages (to stay with their global attitude) we are given a list of features.
Once the out packaging has been opened, the contents are all nicely positioned together, ready to tear apart like a little kid at Christmas (too much emphasis?).
Two instruction booklets are included, one of which helps you get started (as you can clearly see) whilst the other gives information relating to the health and safety aspect of a product that sits in your ear and lets off radiaton, or doesn’t, or whatever the Daily Mail are claiming this week.
Keeping with the global market, Plantronics send a multi plug with this headset to appeal to both the UK and European markets.
By being a multi plug, it allows the user to connect which style of plug their country uses.
For us, as we’re UK based, we’ll be using the UK style 3 pin plug adapter which locks into place, ready for charging.
Other little goodies include a set of different size ear buds, so that this unit fits almost anyones ears whether they be small or large as well as a neck strap that connects in via the USB port on the headset, though this has no other function than this.
Of course you also get the bluetooth headset pre-fitted with an ear bud and removable over-the-ear rest.
