Given my not-so-great experience with Jabra BT800 and Logitech Mobile Freedom I was skeptical as to how comfortable the Scala-500 will be. It is very important for me how long can I wear the headset without feeling any soreness in my ear. To my surprise the Scala-500 turned out to be very comfortable to the ear. Even after having it on for three and more hours of continuous use there was just a slight discomfort felt befind my ear. Another plus is the ease with which the headset can be put on with just one hand. Even though the Scala-500 wobbles just a little bit if the head is shaken vigorously, it sits very securely on your ear.

Conclusion
Not being one of the major players in the headset market has not impeded Cardo Wireless from creating one of the best-all around Bluetooth headsets we have tested. Starting with sleek and contemporary design, continuing with the best wind-noise cancellation we have seen so far, and ending with excellent sound quality, range and battery life, Scala-500 is really a bargain given its $79 MSRP.
