I see a lot of reviews on here complaining of sound quality problems, noise cancelation problems and some other things. If you do the firmware update, these things will improve significantly. That's why there are updates. Amazing.
It was in Verizon packaging that was not sealed and contained a wall charger. I own a BT530 that I purchased from a retail location. Nothing else. It included a wall charger, USB cable (for charging), extra gels and an extra ear hook. This order from shopcell.com had a lot less. Not even the ear gels that allow you to wear it without the ear hook. So I am less then satisfied with what I received.
Beware of this Jabra bt 530 sold by ShopCell. It is not the full retail package and does not come with the USB charging cable nor does it come with the extra ear gels.
Took me a few seconds to fish it out and i thought it was toast. This bluetooth headset was a nice suprise. This was my first headset with that feature and i really like it. The most amazing part of this headset is i DROPPED it in a glass of water when i was getting in my pickup and it SANK to the BOTTOM. Have been using it daily since then (4 months) and not a problem to speak of.Also the size is small enough to where it is not annoying.SO. Plenty of earpieces to choose from.
The very next day i charged it to see what would happen and sure enough it charged up. The inside ear spring is my preference now. I turned it off(yes, it was ON) and left if for dead. Sound quality is good enough. Battery makes it through 5 hours of talk time which gets me through an entire day. Turned it on and to my shocking suprise.it worked as if it were brand new.
Any gadget that can endure my accidental tests deserves 5 stars.
I've yet to try the small earhook; the eargels make it more "pocket-able."The only downside is the volume level. The sound quality of people on the other end is excellent and they comment that I sound very clear; better than my last headset.Fit is excellent. The main draw of the Jabra BT530 was the noise canceling feature and it lives up to it's hype in that area. The maximum volume could be a bit higher for my tastes, especially in a noisy environment.Overall, this is a very good headset. I thought the eargels would not allow for a snug fit but they work extremely well. They slip in so easily you think there's no way the headset will stay secure but it does. Good fit and excellent noise cancellation make it worthy of a look. If the volume level were a tad higher, I'd give it 5 stars.
