    • The controls are intuitive and the sound is adjustable and not over boosted
    • It physically looks the same as the PXC 550 and has the same specs, andthe controls are better for teleconferencing.

    • I also had a little issue with the touch screen on the side of the right ear--it was a challenge for me to get good volume control using the touch screen.
