Too low down the cord. I bought these and it said it was in new condition and came with one of the ear buds failing to work

The mic is located atop the front part of the unit near the lens. You will see 2 screws and the mic is the small hole between the 2 screws.

It has an audio in...which I would guess it is at line input level, not intended for a microphone. That is what it seems to be to me.

Mic is built in at the top of the control unit, it's facing up, right next to the red cable input.Mic sensitivity is excellent, you don't have to lift it to your mouth, as long it's clipped about the shirt's pockets height.

I just bought it & have Windows 7. It works fine except it has a hum that I can't get rid of. I've played with the gain button & the mic volume, but it's still there. Any suggestions?

It's a plug and play mic. Snap it in your phone or computer, ready to go. Be careful of the volume switch. Push it toward the smaller icon for full volume(slide it up). It will seem backward but that after much trial it works.

There is no left or right and the mic is on one side. You wear it where you like.

Hey, you might have the volume tuned up too high on your headset which could cause that problem. If you're doing other things while using the headset it can distort the sound because it's sensitive much like a Bluetooth. You could be too far away from the base or you might have the mic too far away from your mouth. The only other thing I can think of is, it's not your headset at all it's them because you can hear them find!

It's lower. It sits a couple inches lower than the stock mic on an iPhone. Hope that helps.

my mic works perfectly with no issues... if u tried messing with the settings and it still doesnt work it might just be a faulty product....

These are garbage, i had the same problem with both. You can try adjusting your mic settings in the control panel but that didn't help me.

You don't have the mic plugged in on port correctly. Maybe little plastic over port or not snapped in tight enough

All your going to hear is other people's voices,nothing else,and also this may not happen to u bit it happened to me,when I bought the mic it said it was in stock 2 weeks later the people who sell the mics tell me that they did not have it in stock and told me to wait an extra 12 to 18 days for the mic to get to my house.Long story short I do not recomend u buy this mic from this seller,trust I will be worth to pay i little extra.

The issue is probably on your phone itself or you have the mic positioned too far away from you. It needs to be within 3 feet. Mine is probably a little over 2 feet away from my mouth and as long as the volume on my phone is turned all the way up I have never had any issues being heard.

On the left side of the base, there is a little door you can open (opens at the top, hinged at bottom). Open that door and you will see a dial on the left. This is your mic volume. If this doesn't help, you may want to try a different channel (the switch just to the right of the mic volume dial). I believe this link will take you to the user guide: http://www.plantronics.com/uk/media/media-resources/literature/user_guides/savi-710m-720m-ug-en-gb.pdf?WT.dl=20Hope this helps!
