    I had to replace my bluetooth and this one was told this was a good one. I agree: easy to use, clear and a great battery.

    Use it almost everyday, for calls and at the gym. When receiving an incoming call, it just says "incoming call"; would be more attractive if the number were announced, if not the name. Either way, happy with my purchase.

    Just purchased earpiece for spouse for Christmas. It had a good rating so, I figured I would try it out. I have purchased this brand before. So, wanted to stick with what I know to be of good quality.

    Overall good performance, I like that it sits tightly around my ear and does not fall out as I am moving about. Its comfortable and easy to use. However, sometimes the voice does not come in as clear as I would like it.

    I like the long battery life and range of operation at decent distance. The volume seems a little low even at max setting.

    I have had 3 different bluetooth ear piece models over the years and the 505 has the best sound quality. The range is high average (I gwt around 30'), as is the battery life (2 days stand by or 7 hours of listening to music)

    I have used many Bluetooth headsets and have had difficulty with fit or sound quality.....even with the more expensive ones. This one fits well and most people have no idea that I am using it when I speak with them.

    Small and good snug fit. The charging strap is very convenient and dual purpose on the go never lose it anywhere. My main issue with this earpiece is the battery life, it doesn't seem to extend out to seven hours, more like 4 1/2 hours. I have considered that I do run a few more apps than average usage, but it's not constant, so the stand bye mode should save that non-used energy. I do think it should have voice dial and auto sync for contacts. Otherwise, a good choice for the basic earpiece.

    This unit works very well. It connects quickly and stays connected and has excellent battery life. Am really not satisfied with its not being able to cancel background noise, often times i have to disconnect the bluetooth and use my phone for conversations in a crowded area especially on a bus. Am in love with the charger, its sleek and uniquely designed. Good sound, looks good, decent but not great wind cancellation and noise cancellation.

    This headset takes the guesswork of the remaining battery life and to which device it is currently connected. The battery life has actually exceeded that of the advertised time in addition to showing no radio interference with other BT devices, as I have previously experienced.

    I tried another plantronics--too many complaints on the other end. I tried jarbra... I couldn't get comfortable with it. As I said... third Bluetooth is the charm! This one is comfortable and lasts reasonable time!
