Owned 3 Voyagers- Legend is worst of all
on April 18, 2016
Posted by: svosho
After owning 3 previous Voyagers, I was due for a new one as my Pro HD battery was losing talk time and the rubber was bubbling. I bought the Legend expecting great things as usual. There is nothing great about the Legend. They designed a new "proprietary magnetic charging cable" that is one of the most ill-thought out designs ever. 1. You need their proprietary cable. 2. Unlike Apple's Magsafe magnetic charge cable where the magnet actually holds, this one does not, and the unit never charges- never. After wearing down the original charge, then trying both cables it came with on 5 different power sources- nothing. The connection is so poor power will not transmit power to the headset. After talking to their tech support, the rep sheepishly admitted Legend charging complaints due to the cable are very common.
On to the uncomfortable fit… Compared to a Voyager Pro HD, the rubber is quite stiff and does not fit the ear comfortably, plus the curve over-ear is molded different than the Pro, so it fits the ear poorly. I normally use the medium size earbud, but had to use the small one instead-and it was just never right- they changed the fit entirely- why?
I returned the unit within the first week and bought a Voyager 5220. That is MUCH better so far with a REAL Micro USB charge port, flexible rubber, comfortable design and I can use the medium earbud again. Beware: the Voyager Legend is the worst one they ever made. You may start to see these on sale with the 5200 and 5220 coming out in April, 2016. DO NOT BE TEMPTED! The cost savings is just not worth it due to the major design flaws of the Legend. Just get the 5200 and pretend the Legend never happened. I bet Plantronics wishes the Legend never happened either.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
