    "Quite impressed; an outstanding value in a small, comfortable earpiece that doesn't look too flashy"

    by dutchvliet on September 28, 2007

    Pros: Conversation quality on both ends in various environments; lightweight and comfortable; easy pairing

    Cons: A bit difficult to adjust volume during a call with one hand

    Summary: I purchased the 520 after having troubles with five different devices that wouldn't work properly with my Moto Q. I borrowed a friend's older 320 and it worked, but the mic was uni-directional and there was no noise canceling or wind screen. I looked at some of the higher-end Plantronics devices, but was worried about customer reviews regarding charging.

    I picked up the 520 almost as soon as it was released and have very few negative comments. It is lightweight and very comfortable. I like the small "hook" on the earpiece as it makes the device feel more stable. The earhook sort of snaps into place, keeping the device close to your face. I noticed that the editors thought it was a bit dull in appearance. I enjoy wearing a device that doesn't make me look like I belong in a sci-fi movie or like I'm a telemarketer.

    I've used it in many different environments including times of high wind, where it performed as good or better than any other device I've used (I've used bluetooth earpieces for over four years). I listen to mp3's softly while I work in my office through my 520 and I still get a day's and night's use out of a charge (wish I could say the same for my Q!) and have no issues with comfort.

    I've had no complaints from people on the other end about sound quality, and when I ask they say that they can't tell that I'm using an earpiece at all. For my part, I can hear their voices very well, even with a lot of background noises around me.

    Impressive... most impressive.
