Plantronic Voyager 520 - Motorola Q Forum

rudeboy · 11-20-2007, 09:37 PM

to finish what happened after this post. the 520 arrived in last friday... without charging i tried it on and it was just a instant fit, almost if like it was made for me specially.. have been using it since and it feels & sounds just great, very comfortable.. and reliable, people i talk to say i never sounded clearer and quite a few said "are you really using a headset ?"

needless to say the Jabra was returned.. and i am keeping the 520.

a guy at work -no Q owner- kept coming to me while i was "testing" all kinds of headsets and he settled for the Jabra -after i had him try mine on- until he heard how enthusiastic i was about the 520, he went ahead and also bought a 520, he said the same thing instant fit, great headset.

9 out of 10 for Plantronics service, and overall quality of products.

previous i had the 510 Voyager (used it day in day out for ~10 months) and besides from some discomfort (due to the foamy covers to thin out over time) it is still a great headset, so yea i agree.. Plantronics is the best i know of.

it (520) won the Editor's Choice Award from PC Magazine.

here it's $54.99. Wal*mart has it for $68.00 so i heard..

My wife loves the Voyager 510 I got her for Christmas...crisp, clear, easy to use for even a non-techie. My only complaint (and its the ONLY reason I just bought a Motorola H700) is because I'm sick of having diff't power plugs for every single electronic device I have.

From now on, if it doesn't charge with a mini-USB style plug....I ain't buyin' it. :D

that's the one (and only) downside imo, but i now have a charger for the headset at work and 1 at home... so i am good.
