Quality headset, a step up from their (already good) entry level version.
By Slippery Jim on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2021
I've been using HonShoop's cheaper version headset (https://amzn.to/32fk7km) for a few months, and have found it to be remarkably good for the price, perfectly serviceable. So far, I can say that this fancier model appears to justify its higher price in about every way. 1) The ear speaker is noticeably louder (while remaining clear). This remedies perhaps the biggest weakness of the lower-end model -- With that one, I could usually hear the other person, but I had to make sure it was really pushed into my ear. With this new one, it can rest casually against my ear, and so far I usually don't even want the volume turned all the way up. 2) The battery life is a LOT better. I haven't explicitly timed it, but I'm inclined to roughly believe their claim of 16 hours talk time (in comparison to the 7 hours on my previous headset). 3) The noise cancelling does seem to be some improvement, based on early feedback, though I need to try it in a windy/otherwise really noisy environment for it to really shine, I suspect. 4) In spite of having a noticeably louder speaker and much longer battery life, the device is somehow a little bit smaller -- see the picture. 5) It looks nicer. Higher quality metallic finishes. 6) I'd say the magnetic charging connector is an improvement over microUSB charging. It doesn't matter a ton to me, but it's kind of nice to have it just suck on instead of having to couple a USB port. And it should theoretically wear out more slowly. Really impressed so far. It's a quality piece of extremely usable hardware, at what I think is a very reasonable price.

Headset randomly and continually disconnects from phone
By Guitar-Czar on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2021
Received the [Latest Version ] Bluetooth Headset CVC8.0 Dual Mic Noise Cancelling, HonShoop V5.0 Bluetooth yesterday, 3 days earlier than expected. Immediately I tried the headset as it was pre-charged and was frankly initially delighted as I left a short message to myself on my landline phone just to quickly test it. It was late in the evening and I just wanted to get acquainted with the product without disturbing anyone. Sound quality of earpiece seemed excellent, microphone seemed to work very well with very good clarity and it seemed to have good noise cancellation, and the instructions for use are thorough and intuitive. The price was reasonable and I just hoped the headset would survive a good long time with normal use. A day later however, I discovered to my great disappointment that when I made my calls to actual other people this headset randomly and continually dropped the connection to my phone, even when it is right next to the phone! It would then randomly reconnect but it was very annoying to me and the people I was trying to talk with. So I have returned it and therefore I would NOT recommend this product.
