I've tried a lot of Bluetooth because I have hearing problems especially with low sounds. With this Bluetooth I can hear with the windows down, but only if I don't drive too fast. The sound is not as clear as expected. Sometimes I hear some "clack" in my ear while talking. But you can put the volume pretty high. I wear it many hours because of my job, and , even if I normally cannot wear them more than 1 or 2 hours, I even forget it sometimes. So in all it's not a bad choice, but it's not perfect.

The phone: Motorola Droid Razr (first model)
I'll give the summary first in case that's all some want to see. I gave this earpiece 5 stars only because I could not give it 6.
M1100 PROS: Unmatched voice clarity on both ends from my experiences. Very good battery life. (We always want more, but we have to be realistic, right?) Excellent noise cancellation. Very lightweight. I don't know if I should use the word "perfect" but I think it may be close.
M1100 Cons: ABSOLUTELY NONE AT THIS TIME AND DON'T FORESEE ANY.
The bottom line is the M1100 is a FANTASTIC earpiece!! As a matter of fact, when I'm done with this review, I'll be ordering another one or two to have as a spares. (I also like the Discovery 975 for its features. I purchased it at the same time as this one & will leave my impression on it as well. VERY good earpiece, too)
I've tried many earpieces over the years...Blueant, Motorola, Plantronics (previous models), Jawbone & Bose. Most recently I had settled on the Jawbone brand because it had decent noise cancellation. The gripe I always had about them was their call quality was very muddy & distorted. It didn't seem to matter if it were male or female voice, I found myself asking people to repeat themselves because I just couldn't make out what they were saying a good portion of the time. The last Jawbone I had was the ERA & the one before the ICON. I would not trade 10 of those for the M1100!
My first reaction when I put it on my ear was, "Wow, this thing is really lightweight." It is barely noticeable compared to the ERA. One thing that stands out on this earpiece compared to others I've used is when on a call, you can hear your own voice through the earpiece which helps me keep my voice at a conversation level. Have you ever noticed some people almost shout into their cell phones? It's because they can't hear their own voice in the speaker so they think the person on the other end can't hear them either. It's nature. But because you can hear your own voice in THIS earpiece it's like talking on a normal land line telephone. You can talk to the person in a normal, relaxed tone of voice & not involve someone down the hall or in the next room in your conversation.
I also like the feature of being able to answer or decline a call with your voice. There are times when using your hands isn't feasible...perhaps if you've just washed them or you're preparing a meal for dinner? You can just say "answer" when prompted & you're connected. It gives true meaning to the term "Hands Free".
This earpiece also connects the call very quickly. Many others have had a delay of as much as 2-3 seconds before you can actually talk to the other person. This one is less than a second so it's very quick to connect you with the person on the other end.
So far, the battery life is excellent. My Jawbone ERA would run no more than 4 hours of talk time, but this M1100 will reach that & a little more. I wouldn't want to say it will reach 5 hours of talk time, but it doesn't stop at 4 either. The WORST earpiece I've ever had for battery life is the Bose. OMG! HORRID! I don't want to call that earpiece of piece of crap, but it's VERY close! Call quality on it was OK, but not as good as the Plantronics M1100 or Discovery 975. I saw some call quality ratings from different sites saying how good the Bose which is why I tried one. Even though it better than the Jawbone ERA, it's not as good as the Plantronics. But the worst thing about the Bose battery life. UNFORGIVABLE! I could not get 2 hours of talk time out of it. 1 hour 53 minutes was the best I ever got! I even warrantied it thinking there was a problem, but no difference. Bose claims 4-5 hours of talk time but when talking with a rep he stated it was rated with an iPhone. So iPhone users, you may have better luck. Droid users...save your money! Buy the M1100 for about $90 less & have a much better experience.
I find that this works really well with my HTC One X as it did with previous phones. It is very clear and I can be heard clearly also. It is so light and comfortable that it is hardly noticeable to wear for hours on end. The charge seems to last for a very long time and if left switched off for periods of time it still seems to hold its charge. It has very handy voice commands and if you like it will read out your text messages which is only good if your contacts compose properly written texts without those awful abbreviations! It's a well made, comfortable and lightweight bluetooth earpiece.
