Regarding the Edge, I use it two ways. If I know I'm going to be having it on for an extended duration, I.E. running errands or just out and about, I use the plastic earhook. If I'm at my desk working and want to quickly pop it in and flick it on to answer an incoming phone call or simply wish to use it real quick for something, I'll twist the plastic ear hook down and put it in my ear with just the earloop (I use the medium size loop). I've found this to give me a more stable and secure fit and it's never fallen out on me. Also, with the earhooktwisted down, it gives me a bit more seperation between the boom mic part of the Edge and my cheek. Kind of like a base or stand so I don’t' sound muffled on the other end.
I can't recall the Edge falling out of my ear. Maybe give what I described above a try or use a different size earloop for a better fit. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sherrie Sent: Thursday, July 23, 2015 8:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Ear pieces and Microphones I, too, recently purchased the Plantronics Voyager Edge and I basically like it. I previously had the Blue Ant but as it got older it had a shorter and shorter battery life and made odd clicks and such. The only thing I don't like about the Edge is that it took me forever to figure out how to get it to stay in my ear. The loop part has to be twisted so that it sits in the back part of the ear. At least that is what works for me. I never figured out how to attach the hook part over the ear so I just use it stuck into my ear and it does occasionally fall out. I like the answer or ignore feature. This ear phone is also easier to use with Siri than my old Blue Ant. It just takes an extra second before starting to talk or dictate. It comes with a charger/carrying case to carry with you but you have to twist the inner plastic ear tip to use it and you can't use it with the ear hook attached. But it is handy to have if you are going to be out all day. It says you get 6 hours of talk time and this is true, I think. I use it to listen to BARD books quite often so use a wired earphone or my old Blue Ant as a backup for the 90 minutes it takes the Edge to recharge. I do think I would recommend it although I really liked the real ear hook on my Blue Ant much better as I sometimes worry that the Voyager Edge will fall out and I won't notice if it is on stand by and not actually talking.

Its got the shape of a house key. Has three mics and a lot of other features. Some I turned off because I don't care for them like caller ID since Voiceover already performs that function and hands free answer/ignore as I found it to be on the flakey side, but all in all, it's a very good earpiece and has provided the best call quality. I tried other models like the Motorola H720, Plantronics M165, Voyager Legend, M55 and wasn't convinced at all or not enough in comparison to the Edge. It goes for around $95.00 on Amazon. Doing a simple search on Amazon.com will bring it up right away. There's an iOS app where you can change settings that for a few unlabeled buttons is fully Voiceover accessible too. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John Diakogeorgiou Sent: Thursday, July 23, 2015 6:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Ear pieces and Microphones Hi: I am looking for a comfortable and high quality Bluetooth earpiece with microphone.
