User reviews Great Bluetooth, 2008-07-24 The Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth is comfortable to wear and provides excellent quality communication. The styling makes this product less obvious than most other bluetooth devices. Volume controls are easily acessible. Range is good. I can walk to the next room, or fill my car with gas without getting out of range. Battery life is exceptional. This product has met all of my expectations and needs. Perfect if you have two phones, 2008-07-23 I have a Jabra headset for my work PDA/phone, and it works very well. But, with the new CA law regarding phone use in the car, I needed one which could switch between two phones. This does just that and it does it remarkably well.
Although you cannot switch while in a conversation very easily (you have to hold the call button until it beeps twice to release the call to the phone mic/speaker and then could pick up the call, but have no easy way to switch back), it handles the obvious uses well. If one phone starts ringing, the headset correctly selects it so you can pick up the call - perfect.
The headset is comfortable for very long calls, with a good balance on the ear.
The microphone stalk is not as movable as the product brief suggests, and it does not fold up per se (sticks out no matter where positioned). Folding up the mic does not power off, which is a shame, although the battery life seems really good.
Sound quality is good on the speaker and appears to be good on the other end, although I have not heard the other side to know for sure.
Only downside vs. the Jabra is that it does not have a USB charger (small cord to plug into laptop when traveling), so you have to drag along the transformer. Found Plantronics while searching book review, 2008-07-23 Found the Plantronics Voyager 510 bluetooth by accident while trying to find the book review section. Had just finished a great read
"Perfect on Paper" By Maria Murnane and wanted to tell others to enjoy a fun reading experience. Purchased the 510 & case. Had in past purchased three different bluetoth units, 2 of which were top of the line exspensive units, none fit my ear. All 3 either felt like they would fall out or they actually did. A pleasant surprise, the 510 fits comfortably, I forget it's there, the volume is better/louder, it works every time and the price was 50% better than quoted by others.
I am super pleased with both products available from Amazon; the Plantronics 510 and the book " Perfect on Paper". Plantronics 510, 2008-07-23 I had to rate it with 1 star - but it's not that good.
This does not work with a Motorola Q9C. I did not know this until I received an paper insert with the headset. The insert referred me to a web link that was no longer functional and when I contacted customer service they said to contact Motorola. In other words it was my problem. No/broken charge status, 2008-07-23 In the user's manual it states that when charging it will flash red and when it is complete the blue led light will come on. The Manual also said a typical full charge is around 3 hours. The first time I charged it flashed red on the led for 4 hours, I didn't know if it was fully charged or what. I just tried charging again and kind of forgot about it, but I came back 7 hours later and it was still flashing red.
I bought my girlfriend a motorola head setMotorola HS850 Bluetooth Headset [Bulk Packaged] that was much cheaper and has better charge indication. Also it fit on my ear better (although both fit fine) and I like how you can turn on/off the headset by flipping open/closed the boom instead of holding a tiny on/off button.
2 stars for the high price, poor charge status indicator, and a worse ui than the motorola.
