Jabra 100-43100000-60 Speak 510 MS Wireless Bluetooth Speaker for Softphone and Mobile Phone

I bought a Jabra 510 about a year ago for use with Skype on my home PC (Windows 7 64bit). During the 12 months it has been flawless and the call quality is excellent with no echo, and people can hear me even when I am walking around my home study rather than sitting. I use the Jabra for Skyping the family who live in Australia and UK, as well as for work calls when at home. I prefer using it in place of a headset as it lets me get up and walk around more freely.I liked the Jabra 510 so much that I’ve just bought a 2nd one to use on my Macbook Air (once again with Skype) for business calls. I bought the 2nd Jabra as I have my work Macbook Air in a different room to my home PC and didn’t want to keep unplugging the original Jabra and moving it. Well worth the $90 price!The only negatives I can give are:1) Confusion on the different 510 versions available. The Jabra website lists 5 different versions of the 510 and it is not readily apparent what the differences a

So I’ve had this for about 3 months now and I have to say what a bloody awesome job Jabra have done. This device definitely continues to maintain their reputation for well designed and manufactured products.Aesthetically: this is a great little unit: nice and compact with minimal and very clear symbols that are self-explanatory as to their function. And the touch-sensitive symbols work really well – Jabra have managed to get the perfect balance of not requiring too much pressure but needing more than a fly or accidental brush so there’s very little chance of accidentally killing a call mid-conference.Usability: I use this with a Windows Surface Pro (mach 1), Nokia Lumia 930 mobile phone and an iPad Mini 3. Pairing is as simple as it should be. – once that is done, life gets even more simple: just turn it on and within seconds it’s connected with a clear voice confirmation that removes any doubt. Similarly when you power off there’s a voice confirmation of “disconnected.”The little pouch that it comes with is handy. I chuck the speaker in my bag and it gets lugged around from customer site to customer site, often with a loving lob onto the car’s back seat or boot. While the pouch is starting to fade through wear, it does a good job of stopping the speaker from get scratched :)Battery life hasn’t been a problem. I haven’t actually measured it because … well, I haven’t needed to! I probably only use this for about 6 hours / week and generally remember my ABCs (Always Be Charging). The longest I’ve used it for a conference call would be an hour and a half and the longest time in between uses would be about 3 weeks (over Christmas / New Year break) and the battery didn’t lose its charge.Something that I hadn’t picked up on in the marketing bumf is that when plugged in via USB to my Windows Surface Pro, it still works with my mobile via Bluetooth. From the product info I thought that plugging in via USB over-rode / disengaged the Bluetooth so this is a pleasant surprise.All up – I’m really impressed with this. Would I use it for beach or social use? Probably not – but for this contract project manager who needs simplicity, reliability, good sound quality and solid build quality, this is handsdown a winner.And no – I have no affiliation whatsoever with Jabra or any other tech manufacturer so this is a completely unbiased review.

Pros:It flawlessly pairs with your phone (in my case iphone 7)It also works well with Microsoft Lync / Skype for Business.The speaker will comfortably fill a large (14 person conference room), or can be turned down to a whisper quiet level. At all volume levels it sounds amazing.People on the other end of my calls report that it sounds like i’m in their room, crisp and clear. It doesn’t give a tunnel effectThe devise is simple to use and intuitive.Regarding the 15 hour battery life, I’ve only needed to use it for at most 9 hours straight and it still reported more than 50% battery remaining. I think the 15 hour estimate is based on full volume.It also sounds great playing music. I’m not an audiophile so your milage may vary.Cons: (first world problems)All the buttons are capacitive touch areas around the bezel. I would rather have the mute button in the center of the speaker because it is by far the most frequently used. If it were in the center, I would have l

The products are awesome and arrived incredibly quick. Thank you

Have been using it for a few months…..this is a quality product….simple to use and very portable. I have been using all the time……one can walk around while this speaker is there.
