5Amazing customer service.
By The Special Reviewer
Ordered these protectors when the moto x first came out. Felt nice but the cut/shape was not right. Partially covered the bottom mic. Anyways, the company saw my review and they sent me an email the issue had been fixed and all the users who had receive the old screen were sent 3 new corrected screen protectors. Got my 3 and put one on and it fits perfect. Love the feel of these, they are not gummy like the competition. Great screen protectors from a great company.

5If you want a crystal clear, full screen screen protector, buy these
By Movie Guy
These protectors are vastly superior to what came with my Moto X. They cover the whole screen, are cut out perfectly to expose all of the sensors. Some other brands fail to expose the ambient light sensor to the left of the earpiece which might make your phone dim the display more than it should if you have the phone set to automatic brightness.

The protectors also have a protective film on both sides - one that you remove before installation (the one on the "phone side" of the film) and one that you remove after installation (on the "out side" of the film). The one you remove after installation protects the protector if you use a plastic smoothing card to prevent bubbles during the install. One note - the little tabs on the discard protective films both say "peel off before applying" - that's not right - you'd peel off the "Step 1" film before applying and peel off the "Step 2" film after applying.

In my opinion the screen protectors are the perfect thickness. Some are so thick that they leave an annoying ridge at the edge of the protector. Others are so thin I don't think they'd do much to protect the screen from a ding.

These are also crystal clear. Since they are a clear protector and not a matte protector they are going to show finger smudges, etc. - there's no way around that but to go with a matte protector. In my opinion putting a matte protector on an X defeats the whole purpose of having such a crisp, sharp display.

One reviewer commented about dust. Like any protector, if you get dust under these you'll have a bubble. The way I avoid that is to use a spray duster (like you get for a computer keyboard etc.) to spray the area I'll work in and make it dust free. The protector generates a static charge when you peel the film off and if there is any dust in the area it will be drawn to your protector. Then I clean the screen with a lint free wipe and 91% alcohol. You can use the cloth that comes with the protectors but I use the ones that you buy at an optometry shop. Get all the oil and smudges and crud off the screen. Clean it several times if necessary until it is spotless. Then use the air duster to blow the screen off and make sure it's clear, and dust the surrounding area one last time.

When I apply the protector I apply it long edge first. If you apply short edge first it's hard not to get it crooked. I don't peel the whole protective film off at once. I peel the film back part way along the long edge, and then preposition and reposition the long edge until it is exactly at the edge of the glass and perfectly straight. Then squeegee the protector on working from the middle of the film to the top and bottom edges to keep bubbles out as you also work from the protector on from the left side of the phone to the right, peeling the protective film back from the underside as you go. It's hard to explain - a video would work better. Enjoy!

5Great for Moto X
By Eric
These screen protectors fit the Motorola Moto X perfectly. Once the protector is placed on the screen it adheres well and will not move around. Before I applied mine, I cleaned the screen on my phone with a touch screen wipe (not supplied) then wiped it down with the micro fiber cloth which is supplied. It is important to eliminate any dust that's on the screen before putting a protector on. Dust will cause bubbles between the protector and the screen.

The protector has 2 layers that need to be removed while placing it on the screen of your phone. An easy way to eliminate dust is to peel back just a little on the upper left corner of the inside layer on the protector. Place the small exposed portion of the protector on your phones screen and make sure it is lined up with rest of the screen. Slowly finish peeling on the inside layer of the protector while at the same time attaching it to your phone. Putting the protector on this way will eliminate the chances of dust provided you are doing this in a clean area. Once the protector is attached you can smooth out any bubbles with the edge of a credit card. Once any bubbles are out then remove the outer layer of the protector and you're good to go.

My advice is to use this method when putting this screen protector on your phone. If you peel back the inner protective layer all at once then try putting it on your screen, the static electricity will attract dust onto the protector and it won't adhere properly and it will look terrible. Don't waste a protector. Take my word for it. If done right, you can't even tell you have a protector on your phone.

These protectors are a small price to pay to keep your phone safe and looking new. I imagine with normal use, this pack, which includes 3 protectors, will last a very long time. I am happy with my purchase and would recommend it.

5Slick design, lightweight, solid noise cancellation and easy listening
By Jerry Saperstein
In our era, the collection of matchbook covers from a thousand restaurants and bars has been superseded by the gaggle of abandoned and unloved Bluetooth headsets. My Plantronics Voyager 510, though, has seen a lot of Bluetooth headsets come and go in its time. For some reason, the 510 has remained my most often used BT headset, despite its very weird power adapter connector.

But the Plantronics Voyager Pro HD may be the new kid on the block and quickly become my go-to Bluetooth headset.

The Pro HD is a beautiful piece of design. It weighs practically nothing and the housing is perfectly designed to slip over and balance on your upper ear. I've worn it for several days now and, with one exception, have almost forgotten it was there. The exception is when I put on or take off my glasses - that requires some maneuvering simply because there isn't that much room between my skull and my ear. So I have to make sure everything is arranged just right.

Plantronics has winnowed down buttons and functions to arrive at an efficient and minimalist three buttons. The Power Button has three functions: 1) power on or off, 2) battery voice level alerts and 3) pairing activation. This last, after so many headsets that force me to remember arcane combinations of two buttons, is a blessing. Hold the power button down until the LED flashes red/blue and you're good to go.

The Volume/Mute Buttons also have three functions: 1) adjust volume level, 2) mute the mic (with a 1 second press of volume + and buttons) and 3) pause/play streaming audio. These buttons are generously sized and rise just a bit above the surface of the case for quick and sure operation.

Finally the Call Button allows you take or end a call, redial, initiate voice dial (if your phone supports it) and reconnect lost connections between the headset and device.

Set-up is dirt simple: hold the power button down for a couple of seconds until the LED flashes red/blue and pair I with your device. I paired it with my Lenovo laptop and Motorola Photon 4G phone in just a few seconds without hassle. The headset will support two device connection profiles.

The Voyager Pro HD is capable of A2DP so you can steam music, podcasts, GPS announcements and the like from a suitably equipped phone or other device. Remember, though, that not all phones and computers support A2DP. Mine do and the unit performed well with Pandora and other streaming audio. Volume could be higher but, frankly, if my hearing were better I probably wouldn't complaining. The headset, by the way, ships with a medium eartip installed and small and large ones in the box. I'm going to try the small eartip to see if I can get a better seal to block extraneous noise.

The microphone is supposed to be noise-cancelling and my tests to date indicate that it does a pretty good job. I tested it with a few online recording services, dictating to Audacity sound editing software and in chatting with people. The humans reported they could hear me clearly and I was, frankly, surprised by the clarity of my voice on the recordings. At some point, I will test it with Dragon Naturally Speaking to see how it works with voice recognition software.

The Voyager Pro HD has sensors and can recognize when the headset is being worn. This is pretty neat stuff. You don't have to keep the headset on your ear all the time. Leave it off and when you put it on to take a call, the headset turns on. Very neat! Likewise, if you leave the headset off and there is an incoming call, the headset will route the call to the phone.

As with many headsets, an incoming call stops audio streaming.

Battery life is excellent, in excess of four hours talk time and I don't know how long it will actually last in standby. Charging is via a standard microUSB port. Plantronics includes an AC adapter and a separate USB cable. Nice of them.

A one-year basic subscription to Dial2Do is included, under the Plantronics Vocalyst branding. Dial2Do is an interesting service allowing you to leave reminders, send and listen to emails and texts - if you pay for an upgraded subscription, post to Twitter and Facebook, connect to EverNote and a little more. It is a pricey service, so check it out thoroughly before you become too enamored of it.

Overall, this is a beautiful Bluetooth headset, not only in terms of the sleek and smooth design, but in the feature set as well. From the simple three-button operation to the excellent noise-cancelling microphone and the pretty good audio output. My favorite feature, though, is the weight and fit of the unit. I can put it on and wear it for hours without any discomfort. That, to me, is very, very cool.

2Unpleasant audio; incomplete automatic behavior
By M. Kobb
I purchased this headset from a local store, not from Amazon, because I needed it immediately. But, I read the reviews here and I had high hopes that it would be a great headset for me.

Unfortunately, while the headset has several innovative features and is comfortable and well made, two issues have caused me to return it.

I should start by saying that I used the headset with the iPhone 4S.

First, the good. The headset is comfortable and easy to put on and take off, although the large piece that goes behind the ear is difficult to put on while wearing my Oakley M-frame sunglasses (I have to move the temple on the glasses, put on the headset, then put the glasses back in place). People I called reported that the audio quality was very good. I like that the unit has real volume buttons and a real "answer" button. I like that it shows battery level on the iPhone's screen. I like that when you turn the headset on, if it's on your ear, you hear it report the expected talk time remaining via speech. Bluetooth reception was adequate.

The proximity sensor is a great idea, and some aspects worked well. I *really* liked being able to answer a call or switch to the headset just by putting it on my ear. I will miss this feature a lot! On other headsets, I've had problems where I have been speaking on the handset, and I happen to walk through a room where my Bluetooth headset is sitting. When the headset comes into range, the call switches to the headset, and mayhem ensues. This headset won't do that, because it "knows" that it's not on your ear.

Now, the issues.

First, the audio is, in my opinion, trying too hard to be "HD". It sounds to me as if there is a substantial treble boost applied, so when listening to speech (either on the phone or via A2DP on a podcast), sibilant sounds like "S" are over emphasized and actually a bit painful to have blasted right into the ear. I think the audio would also benefit from some applied dynamic range compression, particularly on phone calls. When driving, if I turn the headset up loud enough to reliably hear the other party, those sibilant sounds are excruciating. And, when the other party happens to shift their own telephone so that their voice gets a bit louder, you really get blasted. Reducing the dynamic range would be entirely appropriate for telephone audio.

Second, despite the great aspects of the proximity sensing feature, it is a bit unreliable, and also not well implemented for A2DP. I had several occasions where putting the headset down on a table caused the proximity sensors to believe that it was on my ear, and this caused paused audio from the iPhone to resume playing -- through the headset I'm not wearing. Result: lost place in my podcast. More bothersome, it continues to accept A2DP audio even when it knows that it's not on your ear. On the iPhone, this means that all iPhone audio signals like text alerts, key clicks, sound effects, etc, are sent to the headset sitting on the desktop, instead of coming out the iPhone's speakers as they should. This really completely defeats the purpose of the proximity sensor, and makes the only viable option turning the headset off completely when it's not in use (so you lose the proximity-based answering feature as well).

I hope Plantronics may address these shortcomings in the future, or perhaps another manufacturer may implement a sensing feature. I will truly miss the parts of this headset that worked well, but I can't risk damaging my hearing with the blasting treble, and I'm tired of missing text alerts on my phone because the audio is not routed properly.

5Excellent Monitor
By Lcole48
This monitor met all my expectations. Picture quality is excellent with the DVI connection. I wanted extra space for display and it delivers plus. The price was excellent and I've had opportunity to compare it with other monitors costing twice as much and did not see any significant differences. You can't go wrong with it.

5Really Impressed!
By berggie
I consider myself fairly competent at eliminating the bubbles that have appeared in every screen protector that I have applied over the years. I usually bought based on "recommendations" and price and found most of them to be adequate. When I was looking for a protector for my new Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 (some people are "Apple" junkies, I have my 3rd Kindle in 3 years... my grandsons love the "hand-me-downs"), I was impressed with the review for the Moshi iVisor and decided to pay what I thought was a fairly steep price and give it a try. It was a snap to install; there are no bubbles because there is no adhesive touching the glass. Assuming it lasts (I'll update this if I encounter any future problems) I can highly recommend this Screen Protector.

5No Bubbles
By Amazon Customer
When Moshi says no bubbles, they mean NO BUBBLES. This is the best screen protector I've ever had! I've never used one on my Kindles but I'm so glad I did.
