Hi Scott, The voyager 5220 ok I’ll have a look around for it.
I thought the legend was older than old and pretty much off the market, Have they kept it up to date? Cheers, Ps. These headsets will need to change now that Bluetooth 5 has been given the green light for release to devices.

This headset is the newest in the voyager line, supports the later bluetooth standards and works very very well. The Voyager legend is the second best option and not by much it’s also a very good headset. The 5220 is just the newest model and the one I’m using presently. You can also adjust some of the features like whether the incoming call ID is spoken or not, the audio profile used for calls and so on and so forth to improve the performance as well. The firmware is not that big of an issue and usually are more bug fixes than audio performance changes. Good luck.

It was published last week. Tim said they should start coming in a few weeks. In the US, few weeks often means three weeks, so I am hoping they will start shipping the week after Xmas.

I’ve completely updated the firmware on the edge and nothing with the delay has changed for the good if anything I find the delay in switching between synced devices such as iPhone and iPad is even worse To the fact that the phone takes about 10 seconds to pick up a connection . Anyway guess I’ll keep waiting for the apple earpods also, I’m just getting sick of waiting and until now not having heard what the delay was. If this information is correct then it’s good to hear, If only they will be out before xmas so I can order a set or 2. Interesting that a couple of weeks ago someone had an email from people thought tim cook saying they would be out around now, And this info you mention, Hasn’t yet put a release time on them.

It is a very inexpensive earpiece, and typically lasted 6 months. Unfortunately, they updated it and it now has a much more significant delay. The older unit had just a minimal delay such that I could type messages using the onscreen keyboard with it. A friend acquired the extremely pricy Motorola Verve bluetooth earpieces for his birthday. I tried them and they had quite good musical playback. Unfortunately, they had a bad delay as well. So, I am suspecting something about the new Bluetooth chipset, as both devices claim Bluetooth 4.2. I have gone back to using my wired earpods until the Airpods are released. By the way, we finally learned why the AirPods became delayed. A couple days after Apple's September event, someone asked a question about what happens if one AirPod gets lost, will Apple sell a single replacement? Apple tested the concept and discovered that the current internal configuration would not permit this. So, they stopped the production line whilst solving the problem. Apparently, the problem has now been corrected, and they are starting the production line again. The info about this was printed a couple days ago, but I do not remember which paper broke the story. Personally, I would have preferred it if Apple would have just come clean at the time, but that's Apple's secrecy a bit over-the-top.

I’ve got a voyager edge but I’m finding it’s got a real delay in picking up the calls infact the connection with my ipHone 7+ I’d like to update to something that’’s going to be up to date and work instantly for me when answering calls or using my phone and iPad I beleave there is a newer headset now that is along this line.
