Works perfectly
The headset works wonderfully. I just turned it on and found it on my phone and now everytime i turn it on it auto connects. I can start music and make calls all with the headset. Something that i found to be interesting is that when in calls the sound comes through both earbuds.
The only thing that i dont like about it is that it has a delay when i hook it up to my laptop but that isnt a problem because listening to music who cares and i didnt get it for my laptop. Also it might be the settings on my laptop making it lag like it does. I would recommend this headset to anyone and if you dont need stereo then u should atleast get the 815 mono version of this headset.
Allot of people were complaing about the buttons being hard to push or the slide part being hard but i have no problem with it. I will agree that if i push the call button on it it does go into my ear canal but i learned and now i just hold the side with my thumb and middle finger so it doesnt.
Another thing that people were complaing about was the sound volume but mine gets plenty loud i mean if you were listening to it in a very loud enviorment then you could hear that a little over the music but i used it at a party and i could hear just fine so i think that it gets loud enough.
The range on it is awesome because i can leave my phone in my room upstairs and go anywhere in my house and it will still work.

Horrible!
I'm a big fan of Plantronics, but this Stereo bluetooth headset was absolutely horrible! 1st it wouldn't pair to my phone (Samsung Gleam). 2nd, Tech support told me the headset was defected, and that I should send it back after spending over an hour on the phone with them. 3rd, before I sent it back, I tried to pair it one last time, it worked! But the quality of the stereo sound was very poor, and really low. This was a big disappointment, yet I looked forward to Plantronics making all the necessary improvements needed for the update to the Voyager 855 next go round.

A very good buy, though it could be improved
I purchased the Voyager 855 around January, 2008. I have very small ears and was concerned that the unit would not fit me correctly. The main unit offers three different sizes of ear stabilizers, so I was able to find the one that fit correctly without a problem. I was very impressed with the design, the sound, and the quality of the overall item. The unit typically offers great voice quality, except if you are in a windy area outside. Additionally, music comes through fabulously.
The unit blocks out quite a bit of environmental noise. I am a maintenance technician, and as such am often around very noisy environments. While these will not replace a good set of ear plugs, they offer a high enough volume and block out enough sound that I was able to listen to music in nearly every circumstance (except for running a saw).
My only two gripes are with design issues. First, given my very small ear size, the stereo extension didn't quite fit correctly, as it is only offered in a medium size. This didn't give me too much of a problem, except when working over my head, as the unit would occasionally fall off from one of my ears. Lastly, the back clip where the stereo extension connects broke recently. I believe this was due to my habit of wrapping the stereo extension cord around the unit without disconnecting it first, causing this section to be under constant pressure. Be sure to disconnect the ear stabilizer if you are going to carry this around in your pocket.
I should mention that this item comes with a high quality leather bag, making it easy to carry around an ear stabilizer, stereo connector, and bluetooth unit all in one small package. My unit finally gave out yesterday, after it accidentally wound up in the washing machine. However, I loved the Voyager 855 that I'm going to get a new one as soon as possible.

Best Stereo Bluetooth Headset
Plantronics Voyager 855 Bluetooth Headset - Black
I've tried many stereo bluetooth headsets. This is the best in all categories. If used in only one ear it works as a stylish small high quality cellular phone bluetooth with the added convenience of extendable mike as an answer-hangup switch. I spend most of my usage listening to music/podcasts or slingbox tv. Connecting the second earpiece allows me to listen to everything in good quality stereo with control of pause/play, forward/back track, and volume controlled dialing.
