Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Uniden HS910 Headset for Cordless Phones
Customer Review: Poor Construction/Quality
Summary: 2 Stars
Uniden makes great phones but why they would make such a cheap headset that doesn't cost cheap is beyond me...unless they want consumers to keep buying them over and over again each time it breaks. The head strap broke within a few months of using it. Super glued it together which removed the adjustability but didn't have a choice unless I wanted to buy another one. That fix lasted about 4 months until the head strap broke into more pieces. I glued it back together for the second time and then wrapped the broken/weak area very carefully in string and imbedded the string with super glue. Figured that would make it last for a very long time...but unfortunately 2 weeks after that the earphone/speaker went dead.
While it worked it was fairly comfortable and definitely a HUGE advantage over holding the phone. Aside from being able to do things hands free...it eliminated the stress caused in your shoulder and arm from holding a phone for more then 10 minutes as well (as any headset or ear piece should do). Kids said that it didn't look very appealing wrapped around my head though, especially in comparison to a small cell phone ear piece. Luckily I only use it at home otherwise it might be somewhat embarrassing to wear in front of other people or at work.
Now that the headset is completely broken I will not get another one because of the poor construction unless I was prepared to buy them on a regular basis which I'm not. I will look around for either a headset whose construction is much better or an ear piece instead where I won't even have to worry about a head strap.
Description of Uniden HS910 Headset for Cordless Phones
For 900MHz Phones with 2.5mm JackTake cordless convenience one step further with complete hands-free operation. Increase your productivity, work on other projects, and enjoy more freedom of movement, all without straining your neck trying to support a telephone handset.
The HS910 is comfortable and lightweight; after a few minutes, you'll forget you're wearing it. The headset attaches to the cordless handset's 2.5mm headset jack. (We tested the unit on a Uniden EXS 9110, but it fits any 2.5mm-compatible cordless phone.) Once the headset is attached, you cannot use the handset for talking or listening, but you can us it to answer incoming calls and to dial. Having a belt clip on your cordless handset is especially helpful, giving your phone complete unobtrusive portability as you walk around.
With the headset, your caller will hear your voice slightly softened compared with how you sound on the handset alone, but otherwise, the headset introduces no additional noise or distortion, and it doesn't reduce the handset's range or battery life. In our tests, even after an hour of continuous use, the headset had not become uncomfortable. For very long calls, you can rotate the headset, as the unit is designed for both left-ear and right-ear listening.
The Uniden HS910 headset is a product that really works as advertised. It is a practical, comfortable accessory that frees you to pursue other activities as you talk on the telephone. --Mike Brown
