I admit that the reason I chose the Logitech Mobile Pro was a cosmetic one. I wanted something that was more masculine than the average Bluetooth headset you see nowadays. The Mobile Pro is a bit bulkier, but strangely enough this only enhances its comfort.
Logitech obviously has a great ergonomics research department. They could have taken the easy route and used an existing solution for trying to get the headset to actually stay on your ear. Instead, they came up with a new solution. One I had not seen before but that works very, very well. It uses two separate spring hinges - one hinge grabs your ear like a pair of tweezers would:
The other holds the headset closely against your ear:
The result is a very snug fit and trying to shake the headset off your ear would sooner result in a concussion than in losing the headset.
The boom mic can be folded up when you need to store the headset. It's about two inches long, which places the microphone nearer to your mouth and theoretically this should improve sound quality. There were also four teeny little windscreens in the box that you can place over the tip of the boom mic (took me a while to figure out what those things were since the manual did not mention them) to prevent wind from taking over your conversations.
All in all, this is a
very comfortable headset and I experienced no discomfort wearing it over a longer period of time.
