Plantronics - Voyager Focus UC with Charge Stand (Poly) Bluetooth Dual-Ear (Stereo) Headset Boom Mic USB-A Compatible PC and Mac Active Noise Canceling Works Teams, Zoom & More

1+ month after using this headset from a working professional whose majority of the day goes in Online Conference via Zoom, MS Teams , Cisco Webex and Phone Calls . This review is after trying Sennheiser, Bose , Beats Headsets in the past 2 monthsPros :1.Comfort - Light and sits easy on Head . Unlike the Bose , Beats, Sennheiser which are bulky .Those headsets are more for listening to quality music2.COnnectivity - I don't use Bluetooth on Laptop for connecting this one. Use the USB Dongle . Works like a charm3.Dual Connectivity - Effortless connectivity of the headphone between my Laptop and Phone. I have stopped using AirPods for Phone after getting this headset4.Battery Life - Full Charge of 14 + hours takes me through 2-3 working days . I still keep on charging it after it goes below 5 hours . With the Charger stand provided with the set , it is easy to charge right there and then.5.Sound Quality - Good. All the Headsets I had bought for my 'Experiments with Headset' had brilliant sound quality. I am able to hear clearly the other side. I did not hear anyone complaining about my sound in any of the conference calls or phone calls6.Range - Its just OK . I can roam about in 5-10 odd feet without breaking but beyond that , loose the connection altogether .For a Work COnference Call , its enough to stretch around the room . Unless someone is expecting to do gardening outside while taking call this has enough Range7.Ease of Usage - Buttons are easy to work with . Its prompts while on Mute help.Plantronics Hub app on both Laptop and Phone are quintessential and helpfulCons :1.Range - Would have loved to get a better range .5-10 feet sometimes is too less when I want to make Coffee in kitchen while taking a call OR Attend someone at the Front Door .2.Price - Plantronics can probably bring the cost around USD 100 . $ 150 still is high .3.Quality - This part is bitter sweet. The lightweight Headset makes it easy to work with all day , however this lightweight also makes it frail to be broken VERY Easily .

Pros:-Incredibly comfortable. Not too tight, and the cushion on the ear don't cause any area too have too much pressure-Sound quality is impressive. Not like a Bose headset or something that blows you away, but is very easy to communicate-Ease: Plugged it in and set up in 5 minutes or less and was ready to roll-Noise cancelling. I don't use this feature because it almost freaks me out how quiet everything gets with it on, but it's incredibly effective if you did need to block out ambient noise- battery life is really strong. I'm usually dialing for 2 hours periods at a time of heavy talk time with only a 15 minute break or so in between, and it doesn't seem to go below 75%-Build of the headset and base seem strong and very easy to dock for charging-Looks sleek and not really bulks like a helicopter pilot like others I've had-physical mute button. HUGE for me as I don't like messing with a sensor all day when I have to muteCons:-Range isn't great. It starts to cut out on my when I go just 2 rooms over in my house. We have a lot of baby monitors and sound machines and all, so maybe that's disrupting it, but I wish I could pace a bit further.

The headset I received came with BT700 instead of BT600. I can't comment on the difference as I never had the BT600 but it should improve the range a bit and it also much smaller.This is an older model but I prefer this over the newer one as the new one looks a bit tacky to my taste. I was concerned with the red accents at first but it looks great in person and you will really only see them when you look closely. This version looks more professional to me, including the logo.Sound-wise, this is not a hi-fi nor a pro-level headset but it sounds great for everyday online meetings. It's really comfortable too so it's great for those who spend a good chunk of their day in meetings. Call quality is decent and sounds clear both ways. We use Teams at work so it compresses the sound anyway. What's important to me is calls sound clear for both me and to those on the other line.I use a different headset for music to I am not expecting much for music quality. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of music playback. Just note that you need to enable ANC for it to sound it's best as turning it off makes it sound really thin.One thing of note is that this headset already has great noise cancelling capabilities so I turned-off the mic noise cancelling in Teams as it's too much of a good thing and makes mic sound too soft at times.
