The mic is pretty bad anyway.

And to add insult to injury, your listening audio quality also gets degraded whenever it's on... So it's a lose-lose for both sides every time you use it.

My main complaint is that OSX has no setting to completely disable it. I have to manually switch to the Macbook internal mic basically before every call.

I wish they would just sell a model without the crappy mic. I would even happily pay less for it.

The audio quality thing is a Bluetooth limitation AFAIK. There is no standard which lets you stream high quality audio bidirectionally, their high fidelity mode has only one audio stream going to the headphones.
