So after 8 months with the 8830, I’ve finally developed a poor habit that I might as well not try to shake.
You see, this thing picks up more background noise than a $1500 lapel mic. If I’m sitting in a restaurant and take a call, the callee can tell the following just by listening:
- - The song playing over the restaurant’s elevator music speakers
- - How close my table is to the kitchen
- - Whether or not the lady two tables away has indigestion
- - My innermost thoughts and feelings
Yikes. Way too much stuff picked up by the phone. So I’ve been forced to regularly hit mute on my phone every moment that I’m not talking.
Kinda feels like a walkie talkie.
10-4 Good buddy!
