Strengths: Clear audio on both ends, Effortless synchronization, 12hr talk time!, Small/sleek, and a Secure fit.
Weaknesses: None...
Summary: Just like the Jabra BT500 the BT500v has a thin profile. And while not as small as some BT headsets out there it provides two advantages.
1.)It has a secure fit that is unobtrusive. So you almost forget your wearing it.
2.)It provides one of the longest talk times out there, at a 12hr total.
Other than that the BT500v provides clear audio to the user, and to the person on the other end of the conversation. Synchronization is a breeze press the sync button and then let your phone find it... None of this holding volume and power button combos like other BT headsets. The BT500v is the best headset out there in my opinion and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone that wants a great BT headset.

Strengths: Great sound on both ends. Easy to pair and operate. Many more functions than the BT250v. Charge two ways, USB on your computer as well as your one charger cord, connecting directly to the body.
Weaknesses: None that I've found.
Summary: I have used the BT250v for over a year with no problems all. I wanted to upgrade to the BT500v because of the added functions, and lighter weight. I have talked straight through for over five hours without any dropouts or interference of any kind. I have also had a Motorola headset and the Jabra BT500v, blows all others out of the water. It fits securely around your ear. The BT500v is so light, you can't even tell it's on your ear. If you want a light headset that is simple to use, has a long talk time, and is worth every penny you spend, then the Jabra BT500v is the bluetooth headset for you!

Strengths: lightweight, durable, easy controls
Weaknesses: static occurs when phone is more than 3 feet away.
Summary: Overall, great headset and invaluable when driving. voice commands are a little qwerky if you don't speak clearly, but that's typical if ambient noise in car exists (i.e. cracked window, radio)

Strengths: XL Battery life, good comfort & balance, USB charger, Good sound quality (both listening & speaking), no echos
Weaknesses: Bigger than some but that's the trade off you get with the very long battery life.
Summary: 3rd Jabra BT### I've owned (250, 250v, now 500v). This is still the top of the line if you travel lots and need a long lasting battery. It doesn't sit off the side of your ear like the smaller ones. From looking straight at your face, it's tough to see that you're wearing it. They take a lot of wear and tear and still have great sound quality.

BT500V Wireless Cell Phone Headset - Black (Bluetooth 1.2, 12 Hours Talk, 300 Hours Standby
Strengths: Its bluetooth and has decent standby time
Weaknesses: The range and also inteference in the channel
Summary: I thought I was purchasing a good product but its not exactly great. It has limited range and I have to have it directly on me or else I can't hear the individual on the other line. Not a very good product. I would have done better purchasing something cheaper.

Strengths: Ease of charging off of the USB port. Great clear signal. Easy setup.
Weaknesses: Came with a Australian wall charger and I am in the United States
Summary: I love this headset. It is very comfortable to wear for extended periods. It always picks up. I am hard of hearing and the large gel sits further in my ear canal allowing me to understand in almost all conditions. While driving, the receive call button is easily activated allowing minimal distraction from driving. I sometimes forget I am wearing it. I began looking for a replacement, today, for my friends BT250V, as she knows how much I enjoy my BT500V.

Strengths: Very clear reception. Easy to use.
Weaknesses: First one I received stopped working after a few days.
Summary: The sound is very clear and people can hear my just fine. The quality of the unit itself is a bit less than the BT250. So far I haven't had any problems with the new unit.

Jabra blue tooth headset
Strengths: Sound is very good. Fit is excellent.
Weaknesses: did not hold a charge after a week.
Summary: I bought a spare because it did not hold a charge and then a new one and same issue. When it works it the sound is great and it fits well. I will continue to buy them so I rotate them to Jabra warranty repair.

Strengths: Nice design, very comfortable, functions well.
Weaknesses: Ear gels fall off to easliy
Summary: I use this primarily in my vehicle. But now and then I have to keep moving. When I am done I shove it in my pocket, as opposed to just leaving it on my ear. To that end when I reach for it again the ear gel has fallen off.
That is the only thing that bothers me. Small detail until I lose all of the eargels that came with it (4 of them I think).

Strengths: Comfortable, good sound quality both directions, volume adjustments easy to feel when on your ear
Weaknesses: The power connector is similar to mini-USB but is not. Would have been nice use the universal connector so I wouldn't need "yet another" charge cable.
Summary: The headset paired up easily with my Blackberry Curve, and provides good quality and all the functions I need (volume adjust, mute) at a bargain price. I would buy it again.

comfortable but does not have good reception
Strengths: I love the way this unit feels when you wear it. You can forget you have it on. It is the most comfortable bluetooth device on the market.
Weaknesses: I do not know if it is the headset or my blackberry but the reception leaves a lot to be desired. I had a motorola headset and I did not have this problems. I can experience distortion just by turning my head

Strengths: Works very well, especially for someone with a hearing problem. The vibrate feature is wonderful.
Weaknesses: None
Summary: Purchased this one to replace one I broke (my own fault).. it works very well and the battery lasts forever it seems... I have yet to have it not work with charging it seldom.
The shipping was fast and better than expected.
