5 Stars Great little speaker – get one!
I have been using this for about 8 months now. I drive a manual so having both hands free is necessary, and an ear piece just gets to uncomfortable. The speaker connects easily to my blackberry when entering the car. The speaker is clear and the caller can hear me clearly too, in fact they cannot tell I am even using a device. The battery is incredible and lasts for weeks on a full charge. The range is very long so I usually turn it off when exiting the car or it will stay connected. I have not used the voice command feature as I just make the call from the phone and it connects to the speaker instantly, overall this is a great alternative to an ear piece which can get uncomfortable. A great product, highly recommend it.

4 Stars Very good sound quality
I’m very pleased with this unit. The sound quality reported by people I’ve talked to via the Parrot is excellent (much better than the built-in Bluetooth in my previous car, a BMW). It was also very easy to pair with my phone (T-Mobile Shadow).

The only reason I’m giving it four stars is because I’d like the built-in speaker to sound a little better, but that’s just nit-picking. This was definitely a good purchase.

5 Stars Good bluetooth for the price
I have a more expensive bluetooth headset and I always use the Parrot instead. The reason, no awful feedback. The sound is clear on both ends, even with the noise of traffic. Easy to operate. A real bluetooth for dummies for the car.

1 Star Dont buy it
This is the worst bluetooth i ever had..

lots of noise and the voice sound is on and off all the time.

i do not use this device anymore..

3 Stars Does the job
I have been using the parrot minikit for over a month now. As stated in other reviews the instruction manual is absolutely awful. Since this unit doesn’t have a digital display, it is important that the user understand the menu hierarchy. However, the instructions do not provide anything that resembles a diagram that may guide the user in programming the unit. Eventually, after much stumble, lurch and fall – I was able to to adjust all of the settings. Aside from this- the unit works well with my Sprint Razr. It read my contacts with minimum fuzz. I was not able to enter the keywords for my contacts but it pronounces the names entered in the contacts. The pronunciation is not clear and it takes some getting used to understanding the contacts’ names. At this point, I feel that I got my money’s worth

4 Stars Great Bundle, but one thing…
This is a great bundle, but just one little thing. I expected the “holster case” to lock my phone once the phone is inserted, but I have to lock it myself… unlike the OEM holster versions. I didn’t check to see it was an authentic BLACKBERRY holster.

2 Stars LIke others have said “you get what you pay for”
The wall charger was somehow destroying both of our phones, it took a while to figure this out, but the second we stopped using it our phones were fine, then we used it again and the both froze up. Since we stopped using it no problems. Didn’t receive the antenna booster, and the case is fine, and the car charger works fine. IF everything worled and I received everything, I would’ve given four stars just on how inexpensive it all was.

5 Stars Great Service, very prompt shipping
Cell Phone Accessories arrived very quickly and says much for the promptness in the immediate shipping, thank you.

4 Stars Cool accessories bundle
i am very impressed with the screen protector. makes the storm screen sharper and does not inhibit the functionality of the touch screen in any way. i also like the carry case and the car charger, very handy. the storm comes with a number of home wall chargers so you might find yourself not using the bundled wall charger

5 Stars Great Storage
When not using my headset this is a great way to keep it safe. Light and durable, I keep this in my handbag all the time and my headset is always at hand and in good condition.

1 Star THEFT
I NEVER RECEIVED THE ITEM….STILL WAITING FOR IT…I BELIEVE MY MONEY WAS STOLEN BY THIS MERCHANT

1 Star It’s not what you think…
I purchased this item based on the description, which states “Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headset Carrying Case.” First of all, this is an OEM item, in which you may be able to stuff the headset in. Maybe not. Certainly not designed for the headset, whatsoever. My problem was reading the title of the item and assuming that it: 1) was made my Plantronics, 2) was for a Plantronics Voyager 510, and 3) could serve as a carrying case for such an item.

I am very disappointed. I shall start to consider alternative uses. Like for small scraps of paper, USB sticks, and so on.

Don’t be fooled…

4 Stars Handy carrying case
This is a handy carrying case for the Voyager 510 headset. Some reviewers mentioned that their headset would fall out of their case. I have not found this to be a problem in the 3 months that I have owned this so far. Someone mentioned in a review that if you tuck the charging end in to one of the two slots between the elastic at the bottom the headset will fit comfortably in the case. I found this to be true and it fits quite securely. The only reason that I’m giving this four stars is because it doesn’t come with even a little card mentioning this and I really think that the company should tell you how to get your headset in the case!

Other than that, this is a great case. It’s not intrusive and it does its job well.

1 Star LOST MY HEADSET BECAUSE OF THIS CASE!!!!
I was truly looking forward to this carrying case. The first time I wore it was at the local county fair. When I was driving home with my Girlfriend, I reached down to grab it and it had quietly fallen out without me realizing it! I did not even ride any of the amusement rides, I was merely casually walking around and it managed to fall out. I agree with the other reviewer that this product needs to have a elastic strap to hold it down. Now I am trying to find a new Bluetooth headset. Do not know if I am going to purchase a Plantronics 510 again.

4 Stars Nicer than the ones in the Apple Store
I just got this case last week and am very impressed with design and quality of it – especially for the price. The silver case looks really slick with the iPhone (keeps that distinctive look that lets the world know you’re a gadget junkie) and it snaps well into place. Four stars because it does leave a couple of corners (on the front side) exposed and I could see them getting dinged if you were unlucky when the phone hit the ground

2 Stars Probably works ok but its cheap plastic.
Ok, after reading the reviews I finally ordered this item. All looks good at start, arrived in 2 days. But once I open the pack, it immediately feels like cheap plastic case. Am I going to put it onto my iPhone, hell no!

5 Stars excellent case
This is the best case ever!! I’ve had several other cases which were alot more expensive and were bulky and covered the look of the iphone. This case is sleek and doesn’t add any bulk at all, and has a soft surface which is easy to grip. Probably doesn’t add as much protection as the others, but it’s worth being extra careful. I would definitely recommend it.

5 Stars Cozip iPhone Cover
I just LOVE this product. I have tried several different protective cases to protect my iPhone and with every single one of them there was always an issue with the way they fit, or lack of. Cozip is sleek thin case – not bulky, easy one step click on, non slip, and not to mention the cool colors ~ it’s nice to change the appearance of your iPhone from time to time. VERY PLEASED.

3 Stars Great, but
I love this case. Love love love it. But. These cases are black underneath, and after a month or so, the color starts to bleed through, or wear off. This silver one started to bleed through red. I replaced it with a white one, which even more quickly started to fade to black. They still work of course, they just look like hell. That said, everything else about it is sweet. Light, adds almost no extra bulk while giving the phone some extra grip so it doesn’t slide off my desk or my lap. Gonna buy a black one, maybe that will at least stay black.
