    • Now the battery is totally dead - and this is Plantronics only model where you cannot replace the battery, so I would recommend buying an extended warranty
    • The battery life if excellent
    • After that, the battery lasts long enough for daily use, the sound is clear, no problems with the unit at all.2
    • However, while this one worked well and the receptionist really likes the fit and range of the device, the battery died in six months and it is not replaceable.
    • Comfortable to wear for hours, long-lived battery, and slick magnet system to positively engage charging.
    • I called the company and they tell me this unit that I paid nearly $200 for does not have a replaceable battery
    • Some times it has not even used enough battery to need a charge at the end of the day
    • The device seems to have excellent battery life I charge it on my breaks and during my lunch and never seem to have a problem with the battery
    • He did some trouble shooting and ultimately determined that my headset which does not have a replaceable battery was faulty and not holding the appropriate charge.
    • The battery finally died on the headset and it was put to rest with all suitable reverence.
    • I haven't tested the battery or range too much yet, but so far so good.
    • Battery lasts quiet a long time in between charges
    • Major disadvantage is battery is NOT replaceable
    • Sometimes, I take a lunch break for 30 minutes, during which I will recharge it a little or I will work straight through from 8 AM to 5 PM and never take the Plantronics headset off and the battery is fine all day long
    • For what a new headset costs you might as well by a different model with a replaceable battery.
    • Great battery life.
    • then we start to see some issues with battery life and connectivity issues.
    • On the CS70N, if you didn't wedge the headset down into the charging cradle tight enough or weren't paying attention to the charge indicator light, you might come into work the next day and find the battery dead
    • Battery died after 2 yrs
    • However, while this one worked well and the receptionist really likes the fit and range of the device, the battery died in six months and it is not replaceable.
    • Comfortable to wear, long lasting battery
    • I have not tested it on the weekend to see how long it would take to deplete the battery completely yet
    • Fine for about 18 months then the battery died and is not easily replaceable (unless you are good with a soldering iron).
    • Now the battery is totally dead - and this is Plantronics only model where you cannot replace the battery, so I would recommend buying an extended warranty
    • The battery was no longer working, and they can't replace the battery
    • The battery dies after 4-5 hrs
    • Understood my needs and without me even asking tells me that he has another model (with replaceable) battery that he thinks would work better for my situation and would go ahead and send it out to me right away
    • With that said, it still works as it should and allows me to roam freely around the office not being glued to the desk.
    • Very dumbfounded as to why they would not make the battery replaceable like their other devices.
