Plantronics Voyager 520 Review

The 520 has an entirely new design, superior noise cancellation technology, excellent sound quality, 8 hours talk time and 180 hours standby.

Snip from our review:

"The Plantronics Voyager 520 is a very well designed, lightweight and strong-performing Bluetooth headset engineered primarily for business professionals. Of course, individual users will appreciate the robust noise cancellation/reduction technology, the ease of use and the surprising level of comfort that the 520 offers.

The Voyager 520's exterior is made of a sleek but durable plastic. Both the earbud and ear rest are soft and rubberized so as to be gentle on your ear. The 520 is well built and looks like it can withstand the rigors of heavy daily use. To test its durability, I intentionally dropped the Voyager 520 from my desk (several times), carried it in a briefcase, and even dropped it from ear height (roughly 6 feet) to simulate an accidental drop. The 520 didn't have a scratch on it and continued to work perfectly. While I don't recommend mistreating your own Bluetooth headset, it's nice to know that this one stood up to exaggerated abuse."
