I just bought the Jabra Mini on Black Friday from Amazon for $24.95 Canadian, normally $40.
So far I find it very functional and much more comfortable than the Plantronics Voyager for an all day usage.

The sound is pretty good and the microphone fair. The little wire loop that you can snap on or off that goes around your ear means it never falls out when you run into that bush or turn your head too fast.

I use it for business calls and call quality is very solid. Indeed, it does use the standard micro USB connector as well. I find it to be more comfortable for all day use than the Voyager Edge that I had before this one. I tried out the Legend before I bought the Edge and the Legend felt bulky for me. The 5200 has a similar design to the Legend, but it doesn’t’ feel as heavy and again, it doesn’t use that magnetic connector that I wasn’t hot on either. Keep in mind, the 5200/Legend are anything but discrete. They’re fairly big and use a boom mic The Edge has a slightly smaller footprint and uses those plasticky ear hooks whereas the 5200/Legend is one solid piece. Where you swivel the boom mic depending if you want to use your left or right ear. I’m not aware of any other single ear piece that has four mics like the 5200. Another thing to consider and why I prefer the Plantronics earpieces is that they can be turned off/on with a switch instead of having to press and hold a button to power on/off. There’s also a Plantronics iOS app that you can access to enable/disable features. I for the most part have a lot of the extras turned off, but they’re there if you want to use them.

One thing i know is that the Legend has a magnetic connector for charging, and the 5200 has the traditional micro USB connector. Many folks didn't like the magnetic connector because it could easily be jarred and disconnected from the headset. andy ----- Original Message ----- From: <mailto:ajv...@gmail.com> Anthony Vece To: <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, December 08, 2018 1:23 PM Subject: Re: looking for a good single ear piece for my iPhone Andy; Do you know if the current model is an improvement over the model you have?
