Summary: Finally, a match for me
Comment: The Jabra 5010 had me convinced that there was a deformity in my ear. Not only could I not hear anything coming out of the headset, its extremely loose fit would pull away from my face and flap like an extra mat of hair in the breeze. It was fairly useless, but I figured at $39.99, I got what I paid for.
The Jabra 5010 was replacing another Jabra that was one of those huge monkeys that wraps around your ear and implants itself like the worms from the Wrath of Khan.
Both of these Jabra headsets left me with two requirements for the next headset: it couldn't implant itself too deeply into my ear, but it needed to fit my obvious deformity. I also needed it to have a decent volume, so I guess there are three requirements.
Ladies and gentlemen, I have found bliss in the Plantronics 520. It works very well with my iPhone 1 and Blackberry 8830... the volume is perfect. The fit is very well-engineered. It has an over the ear hook that is comfortable and feels quite invisible, but the real magic happens with the ear bud that just slightly invades your ear enough to lodge itself into place and pour sound onto your eardrum. This fit is so perfect that for the first time I'm able to wear a headset and not feel like I have a bizarrity on my head that is keeping me from hearing an in-person conversation.
Well done, Plantronics - I applaud you. You now own three elements of my workday: a phone headset, a Skype headset and a bluetooth headset. All three are well engineered and work beautifully. Bravo. I thought Jabra was the king of the hill (because that's what I had heard from just about everyone) but now I know that when it comes to fit, Plantronics has it down to a science.
Oh yeah... and at around $40, how can you go wrong? Well, you could buy a Jabra 5010 with that $40... that's how you can go wrong ;)

Summary: Plantronics 520
Comment: One of thre best Bluetooth headsets I've used when you blend headset sound quality, noise cancelling, comfort, and connection reliability.
For instance, the Jawbone has better noise cancelling, but in my experience, the speaker tone quality is so tinny as to render some conversations unintelligible.
Other headsets have louder speaker volume and adequate noise cancelling, but constantly drop connection with the phone. The 520 has never lost its connection withany of my three phones (Tilt and Nokia E90 and E51).

Summary: Great headset - especially if you have 2 cell phones
Comment: Good product. It works with 2 BT phones with no issues. Although, I wish I could go back and forth. You would need to hang up with one phone before you could pick up the other call on another phone. You can't just put it on hold. I may be asking for too much... but, that technology should arrive soon.
Other than that - great product. Holds charges for very long time compared to the other sets. Good sound quality and mic (so I hear).
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent Headset
Comment: Headset was easy to connect to my Samsung BlackJack II. It is lightweight and comfortable. Sound quality is great. No complaints of callers not hearing me or me having trouble hearing them either. Not the smallest headset on the market but for the price, is an excellent headset!

In the car, at the airport, or on the job - Plantronics Voyager 520 delivers business quality audio performance. Noise-canceling microphone filters distracting background noise so you can be easily heard while the innovative windscreen minimizes wind noise. It's user friendly with convenient one-touch call controls and desktop charging cradle. If you use two Bluetooth phones, multipoint technology lets you easily switch between them with the same headset. Versatile design provides a secure fit for all day wearing comfort wherever your meetings take you.
