    I got these to use with Microsoft Teams. They work really well, easy to pair with devices. The noise cancelling is as good but it is not like more expensive headphones that have active noise cancelling, more the cancelling is down to the fit and padding. But for the price point I don’t think you can get better.

    Great headset, lightweight and easy to use. Sync’s to a phone and computer so no need to disconnect and reconnect each time you want to use a TEAMS meeting or a phone call. Find the headset slides off my head occasionally, but it is so comfortable, that this is only a minor thing. Charges quickly and the headset stays charged for a long period of time, even with regular use.

    Sound quality is perfect until you use the microphone. I use the headset to dictate in my work, whenever i switch the mic on to dictate, the music playing drops quality. I understand this is bandwidth limitation, even happens to a lesser extent on wired headsets. Just to manage people’s expectations.
    Would’ve preferred if the mic can rotate all the way to other side to allow left sided mic, but isn’t possible with this set. Reason is, noise cancellation for the mic works best if the noise is coming from the mic side (as NC mic is on the back of mic boom).
    If I have it on for long, my left ear hurts by the padding, not sure why. Maybe it’s my ear.
    Excellent battery, stays all week for me.

    Overall, great product. It’s comfortable and the sound quality is decent (tad bassy but not really meant for music anyways). Since I bought it, I’ve only needed to charge it twice. The range is perfect, can go across the room (no line of sight) and it would still work. Can be buggy but all issues can be fixed by rebooting the device.

    I’ve been using these headphones for roughly 6 months now for a daily teams call in the morning then often listening to music most of the day plus other random teams meetings. The battery life is amazing. They last several days with use all day. The music sound quality is pretty good ( much better than I was expecting) and the voice quality on calls is good. They connect quite fast to my PC and phone though sometimes I get confused whether incoming calls on my phone are going to go to the headset or not and it seems to depend whether I answer with the headset or the phone itself – but not always! The headphones are not noise cancelling in themselves I don’t believe but they have excellent vocal noise cancelling for outgoing calls so background noise does not interrupt teams calls. Very please with them. Only niggle is as on-ear headphones after a full day of wear they get a little uncomfortable.

    I wanted a pair of headphones that I could use for both work and personal use. Personal use is mainly podcast, YouTube and scanning music apps for new artists to listen to on my stereo. The sound quality for all of these activities is more than adequate.

    I bought the teams specific set as i spend my day in and out of teams calls. I also create short training videos and use the mic for the voice recordings. I am surprised at the clarity of the voice recordings.

    For teams meeting the audio quality for listening is excellent. They are not an all day headset. After around 4 hours I felt the pressure point on the top of my head.

    My biggest gripe, if you are on an individual call the headset behaves as expected. However, on a team/meeting call at the end the meeting the red active light remains on and you get the mute notice reminder, even though the meeting is over. Clearly a defect with the headset.

    But overall they are very good.

    Very good all round head phones. Good quality and sound. Easy to set up, not so easy to use. The volume and on/off buttons are very small and difficult to use, otherwise a brilliant set.

    This was beaten significantly in the microphone noise suppression test I performed by the Jlab go work which is 4 times cheaper. The test included playing a podcast from a speaker close to me to simulate a very loud co-worker in a small office setting. I could make out what was being said on the podcast using this but the Jlab blocked all of it. No1 was the Poly voyager 4320 which was not much better than the Jlab.
    This was corroborated by co-workers who previously never had an issue while I was using the Jlab.

    I love the looks of these hradset. Vety convenient to mute and unmute with the mic arm. Battery life is pretty decent. But! I’m often told my sound quality is bad. So, while I really like it, my coworkers not so much.

    So far in the short period I have used these Bluetooth headphones, found them very good and I’ve tested a few, callers calling in on them more often then not can actually hear me clearly which is good the one press pick up and hand up feature is really cool battery life on them is decent a full charge will last you a good few days “yes I did say a few days!!” So that’s pretty good, would I recommend them? yes I think I would!! All in all their are a decent pair of Headphones worth the extra few quid from what I have experienced so far with them and lastly they work great with Microsoft Teams..

    I really just wanted a good quality set of headphones that I could run on my Arch Linux machine. I plugged in the bluetooth dongle that comes with the headset and it was immediately recognised. The headset appeared a new sound source/destination in the PulseAudio Volume Control app. Yeah, I don’t have all the features you get with a Windows/OSX install, but the headset works really well. The quality is excellent, for both voice calls and music. I love how easy it is to mute myself by either pressing a button or lifting the microphone boom. They sit comfortably on my largish head. Can’t complain.

    Tried a few BT headsets and had issues with the mike and MS Teams with several. It’s annoying as they quality of a 30-40 headset is decent but they all had issues with different platfomrs, particularly MS Teams.

    These work fine on: MS Teams, Zoom, Google meets etc… also work well with my mobile phone and whatsapp, and have a nice sound quality for listening to music/watching movies.

    Recommended. Bit procier than some, but very good.

    I’ve had a few issues with the reliability of connection with my Surface Pro but I suspect that’s a Microsoft issue. What I don’t like about this product is the fit. An hour is about the most I want to wear them before my ears are uncomfortable and the noise cancelling isn’t spectacular. I struggle a little with the microphone position. I guess my head is larger than these were designed for.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersDon’t worry, it’s only a parrot, little bugger won’t shut up, but these headphones don’t drown him out! Luckily the sound quality is so good I can crank up the sweet tunes of the big Yeezy and the superb audio quality drives me to ecstasy.

    The only downside is that they are genuinely a bit uncomfortable, the standard Jabra evolve headphones are vastly more comfortable but broke after only a few months of usage. I’m expecting these being a different design to last much longer but just give me a bit more ear ache in the long run.

    I had a cabled Jabra headphone before f for online meetings and calls and I was happy with the sound quality but found the cable limitating for mobility and calls when you don’t have to be in front of a camera.
    This fils the need perfectly and has a better sound quality which makes it even more perfect.. the weight is OK, I keep it sometimes for over 2 hours without difficulty. Battery life is incredible, it puts itself on sleep nearly immediately when you remove it.. it even puts music on pause of you drop it for a moment to chat with a colleague.. just perfec

    I first got a Jabra at the beginning of lockdown when I was experimenting with headsets. A French friend set “get this: it is more expensive than the others but it is worth it”. I was not disappointed. I have one at work and one at home. We have all spent hours, days on calls, and this makes it comfortable and effective. Perfect machine.

    There is no ANC for this model, whether that be on listening to music or from noise reduction when connected to telephony and speaking to someone with it. On a personal note I’ve had several instances, or rather MANY instances where the other party just completely hears nothing from my end, which is very frustrating for a pair of headset of this price point.

    Considering the high price tag you would expect a stress free experience ; but the device disconnects it self randomly and forces you to reboot your computer in order to be connected again. IT told me this is a Windows issue rather than the actual headset. So there seems to be some minor compatibility issues. The noise blocking is really good. If your dog bark next to you , your Team meeting cohort won’t hear a thing.

    Integrazione perfetta con i sistemi di call come Teams o Webex. I bottoni per il mute della cuffia e l’archetto che si solleva per mettere muto si sincronizzano con il tasto mute del sistema che si sta usando. Il microfono ha una forte riduzione del rumore per chi mi ascolta, mi riferiscono che mi sentono sempre alla perfezione. Isolamento perfetto per evitare distrazioni in ufficio. Molto comode per chi le indossa 8 ore al giorno. Ricarica eccezionale e rapidissima.

    The headphones are great with great audio quality and build quality. But it does NOT have Active Noise Cancelation, it just has Passive Noise Cancellation.
    For some reason Amazon says it has ANC but it does not. Check out official Jabra Website for exact details.
    So if you’re looking for ANC heaphones this ain’t one but if you need a good quality headphones then go for this or else a be ready to shell out close to double the price.

    Before installing the software I used this headset for a couple of days, and it comes with some infuriating defaults. It’s a wireless headset so I thought I could put on some music and go make a cup of tea, but no, it has a motion sensor in it so if you wander off it’ll pause your music. It also seems to auto pause if it detects noises in the room with you, so it’s kinda the opposite of a noise cancelling headset. It cancels your music so you can listen to the noise.
    It would also answer calls when I picked the headset up. Which just meant I joined about 10s earlier than I would have, but nevertheless irritating, and it joined by default with the webcam on, so everyone got to watch me sit down and get settled.
    Oh and the robot voice lady who shouts MICROPHONE MUTED whenever you click the mute button in teams and MICROPHONE ACTIVE when you unmute. Even does it when you raise/lower the boom arm.

    After installing the software, this could all be solved. Robot lady became a subtle beep, all motion controls can get in the bin, it now works at range and doesn’t pause randomly.

    Only thing is, the software is also kinda garbage. It works fine if you don’t plug the headset into your pc to charge, because then it detects it as a new device on fitmware 0.0.0 and will remind you every 10 minutes to update. Also, if you do click update on this particular message, it’ll cause the software to soft lock with a warning that ‘disconnecting the device could damage it’ I left it for 2 hours before force closing it.

    Really good quality headset, the stand is excellent and charges the device as long as you remember to put it back, the software is really easy to use and manage the headset, it has multiple connectivity options (I have it connected to my iphone and computer so that I can take calls in either device easily hands free)

    The battery life is very good, I dont have any problems doing a full working day on the device with small charges between meetings and work, the headset is well built and comfortable to use for a long meeting or call the software is regularly updated and automatically updates itself if you want.

    The stand is very stylish and looks good as well as being practical, it doesnt slide around or move on my desk and takes up a minimal amount of space, its useful if you can to plug the dongle in where you can see it as it has a coloured LED on it that gives you info about the connection it is currently using.

    I’m very pleased with these but it was overly complicated to try and work out how the things work! You have to download a set of instructor the headphones and then another for how to charge them and they weren’t that clear. Lots of videos available but they don’t tell you what they need to know. Anyway, sound quality is grea

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI just want to start the review making sure people are not confused by the Amazon description. This headset does not have active noise cancelling and you will hear everything around you while using it. What it will do is cancel background noise picked up by your microphone while you are talking to someone else to make sure your voice is clear.

    With that out of the way… this is a great headset, with good range and the microphone sounds slightly better than some of the competitors at this price point. I was surprised by the sound quality and it’s more than adequate to play music while working. In terms of ergonomics, it’s ok but not amazing and I can wear it for multiple hours without feeling uncomfortable. It stays in place just fine if you don’t move your head too much but it starts to fall a little if you look up and down due to its weight.

    Battery life is very good and it was extremely easy to connect to a Mac, Windows laptop and an iPad. It can hold two active connections at the same time which works great between the Windows laptop and the iPad but not that well between the Mac and the PC which seems to be a problem based on other reviews.

    The USB dongle worked fine and has a little LED light that shows whether you are muted/unmuted or in a call. The Windows software is easy to use and configure and it detected everything without problems. Updating the dongle and headset to the latest firmware versions just worked.

    It’s a premium (expensive) headset but it delivers, I definitely recommend it.

    This is a good product, started with a small “hick-up” as I thought they weren’t compatible with my work phone system (Cisco) and was a bit disappointed. But, they did work as in the end found out my system was having a “bad week” and all colleagues had issues. Took one star out for comfort.. maybe depends on everyones shape of their heads but I experienced a slight pain (I keep them positioned on my left ear) on my right side due to headband not having a foam protector (which I think its a slight oversight from makers for the cost!). Bought one separately and had it improvised (headband foam protector)! Poorly thought from that angle as this is an item that it is considered to wear for hours on end and they should’ve taken in consideration the comfort too! Quality of performance is okay and works as it is intended. Noise cancellation is okay (found that I am talking louder when in office when I have them on, ha!). Has a few features that are quite helpful, answer the phone while lowering the mic, button to say the level of battery and confirm connection etc.

    Hopefully they will last a while (have them for just over a month now) as they are quite pricey (for me anyway – I know there are some more expensive then this!).

The mono version does not have the busy light nor the foam head band as the other versions.all in all its a great headset with my foam mod it’s perfectly comfortable to wair all day .

    Best purchase of the year for me by far.
    If like me you are in meetings online all day, you’ll want something reliable, comfortable, with great battery life. Don’t waste anymore time looking at others. Seriously. These are incredible.

    Sounds wise: I’m an audiophile and I rate the sound! Crisp, lovely bass, warm.
    Battery: ridiculous! It lasts for weeks. I’m not exaggerating. I was concerned about having to always recharge. Nope. They go on and on. I don’t get it. I can be in several hours of meetings, listen to some music while doing emails and then a week or so’s time it lets me know to charge it. Crazy.
    Mute: lets you know with a voice when you pull the mic up, simple, effective, quick, zero issues.
    Range: I can go from the 3rd floor to my kitchen on the ground floor and it starts breaking up. No big deal.
    Looks & Feel: People think it looks good, expensive and professional. It feels great for long periods of time. Th ears can heat up after a few hours but that’s not a big deal.

    Conclusion: just buy it. If you are on zoom all day, conferencing or need that sense of freedom with all your conversations secret, this is the one. Blown away. This is a 6 month review. No issues. Worth every penny!

    As an organisation, we use MS Teams for all communication. This headset is certified for Teams, and true to that it seamlessly picks up the meeting.
    Sound and tone is rich and clear.
    Having had wired headsets and cheap wireless headsets you really pay for what you get.
    Note though that these are not noise cancelling. If there is a lot of noise in your vicinity you will hear it. But, if using for professional work then your setup is probably in an office or home office and low level background noise is not a problem.
    They are extremely comfortable, and appear well made and durable.
    The headset voice tells you your battery status and your mute/unmuted position.
    The headset connects either via the usb, as shown in photo, or by Wi-Fi.
    I tend to use the usb for work, but Wi-Fi on my personal iPad, I have not noticed a performance difference.
    Personally I would not use them for music or tv, they are best suited for work voice calls.
    I love them!

    This is an excellent pair of wireless headsets. Great quality for music too. Range is quite wide, so you can head to the kitchen and make a coffee, for example. Battery performance is great, can last almost a work week on one charge (with various calls in the day) and it charges quite quickly too (15-30 mins gives you enough for a couple of days). This is the second pair I get as my previous ones were stolen (that’s how good they are). If you are wondering the difference between the usb-c and usb-a, is the dongle that connects to your laptop; everything else is the same.

    With MS Teams, it works without any problems, the other team members can hear me clearly and the sound on my side is of great quality. The mic arm which mutes when folded up works very good.
    Overall the build quality is very good.

    The ear speakers were top notch, truely. I felt that there was a good range of sound from the highs, right down to the deep bass lows, and everything in between.

    Though I’m no audio expert, I found the sound quality to more than meet my needs and expectations. I’d be content to use a headset like this not only for business purposes, but for music as well.

    Bottom line, the sound on the Evolve2 65 is really good. Clearly Jabra used quality components when making this headset.

    These are one of the best headsets that I have invested in. Love the mute feature when you raise the Mike away. The fact that it connects to 2 devices is fantastic. I am Able to have it connected to the laptop and my phone. The only drawback is that l cannot switch sides … Mike arm does not swing around so can have only on my right. Not a huge downside… would have been grea

    These are a fantastic pair of headphones, and can travel a good distance from the laptop. Which is great, when those meetings over run I can mute myself by turning the microphone up, and go to the toilet upstairs.
    It’s only an issue if I need to talk whilst flushing, but like everyone else, I’ll claim I couldn’t find that mute button!

    The only downside, is the headband is not adjustable – so isn’t a fantastic fit over the head and ears, takes a while to get used to how to get them on correctly so they feel OK.

    So here it is boys and girls, hands down, one of the best if not the best headset I have used.
    I’ve used Plantronics and Jabra mostly and all professional line ups in regards to their price and specs. Nothing has been this light, this quality in sound, speech, distance, clarity and most of all battery life.
    If you either work from home or in an office the mono is the way to go, because of the single sided speaker, you can switch during the day and also hear your surroundings. Nothing worse then being that call to a client and shouting cos you can’t hear yourself.

    Considering the cost of the Jabra Evolve2 65, you get a reasonably decent blue tooth headset. I use multiple devices for my work, having previously used cheaper wired headsets, to be able to switch between devices was an important factor.
    The headset is comfortable to wear although it does not feel it sits right on the head, if you move your head rapidly forwards and backwards it will easily fall off, I sneezed violently and they flew off across the desk.
    However wearing them over long periods of time is OK although in the warm weather it does make your ears sweat, however most over ear headsets will.
    Range of the headset is about 15 – 20 metres, handy if you need to answer the door whilst on call.
    Like the integration to the Teams app.
    Just make sure if you need to connect to multiple devices you only get the one BT dongle. More can be purchased but are expensive.
    Only issue i had in the early days was the sound would chop, but eventually resolved with firmware and software updates.

    This is a fantastic headset. I never used to rate Jabra products as i’ve been a Plantronics fan boy for my whole 24 year career in Telecommunications. But this and the rest of the Evolve2 range have blown me away.

    This is a great headset for both working in the office and at home, the noise cancelling is fantastic, cutting out most of the kids shouting in the background and the washing machine next to me during conference calls!

    Likewise the sound quality is fantastic especially when used with the optional software. Battery life is great as well. Highly recommended!

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our Users1) If you are considering the stand option – Be aware there is no advantage to the stand. You still have a USB-A connection to a computer or hub in order for it to operate and charge your headset. It looks fancy, but you also get a USB-A to USB-C connection cable which can plug directly into your headset anyway. The stand just takes up space for no practical gain. That said, I like mine 🙂

    2) I got the USB-C connector for my headset rather than the USB-A one. Simply put, USBC is the future. I had hoped it meant higher through put and therefore better quality but at the end of the day, it’s just using bluetooth not 2.4GHZ so the quality is the same with either connector. The connection range is good.

    3) I absolutely love the fact that I have this connected to both my PC and my iPhone at the exact same time and it works with either. Play music on your phone, and when a call comes in on teams on your PC, just push a button or pull down your mic, and it’ll answer the call. Also does the same when I got a call on whatsApp or any other coms software. The only advantage getting a Microsoft teams version gives you, is that the side button brings teams into focus to be honest. But since most work places are using teams today, might as well take that advantage!

    4) They are comfortable, perhaps a little too tight, even though my head isn’t very wide, but I do wear glasses and I can feel the pressure on them over my ears. But I’ve had them for less than 24 hours, maybe they will relax a bit after time.

    5) USB-C to USB-C works fine, but I’ve not tested to see if it charges any quicker. Just confirmed it works.

    6) Jabra software on the PC is cool. I’ve had it before in a work place and it got annoying there where it had a weekly update. But I think this was enterprise device management software. The version I have now is much nicer, and it updates the devices (receiver and headset and stand). Just make sure you plug the headset into the stand or cable when updating the headset.

    7) The headband isn’t very big. Although the headphones themselves are fairly heavy. But one of the issues I have with most headphones, is the massive gap between the headband and the side of my head (just above the ear) I have a shaved head, and this massive space just looks ruddy stupid on my headphones. But not here!

    8) The carry case. It’s actually really nice. Apple (Airpod max) should look on and think “wow, thats how we should have made our carry case!”

    The bad……
    1) The microphone boom isn’t extendable. I have a beard, and if I pull the mic down to the perfect position then as my face moves while talking, the beard scrapes on the mic. I have to raise the boom up a little to stop this happening.

    2) Order the black colour! Trust me on this. I got the other colour and it’s like having one of those old PC’s from the 90’s which was the “alternative to a black case”. It is a horrid colour that your granma might paint the livingroom in.

    3) There has been the very rare time where I go to play music on my phone and for some reason pressing play just doesn’t work. Only happens when these headphones are connected up. Other than this it’s very receptive to incoming calls and reacts very well.

    I bought this headset as I use Teams daily and over the past year have constantly been told to mute myself because of feedback even though I have good quality speakers on my laptop. First impressions are they feel quite heavy but this is mostly because I had a lightweight headset which were clearly rubbish. The sound quality is really good and I have been told that my voice is so much clearer now rather than the microphone on my laptop and I’m not being told to mute and unmute every 5 minutes. I can sync these to two things so I have my laptop and phone and it’s easy to set up. Very happy with these yes they aren’t cheap but I would rather pay a bit more to have the quality that these now give me.

    So easy to set up (once I found the usb), works brilliantly.. occasionally has an argument with teams following an update but that is a teams issue not headphones. Had building work happening outside office door, and rest of call couldn’t hear it at all made me wish that I had gone for two earphones!

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersFor the past year I’ve been using the original Evolve 65 I found that they felt loose and kept slipping and the ear pads lacked enough padding – plus they felt cheap and horrible considering the price.

    I was willing to pay full price so opted to get these from Amazon warehouse – granted the box was a bit scuffed up but the content inside was all accounted for and absolutely fine.

    As for the headphones themselves –

    Pros:
    1. Although no active noise cancelling like other premium headphones, the additional padding and material used really do help reduce background noise (something the originals didn’t do)

    2. The paddingthere’s more of it so they feel more comfortable on the ears without plastic parts feeling pressed against you.

    3. It has a silicon gel cushion on the headband that not only adds comfort but reduces your headset shifting about easily.

    4. A more premium feel – I’m almost certain they are still plastic BUT they have been coated in a rubber texture.

    5. Buttons. You have the mute button to the front where as the others are to the back. All with easy access. (Note: my model has a teams button but currently we don’t use it so I have no idea what this is supposed to do)

    Cons:

    The main one is this only fits one waywhich is annoying. As I’m on the phone whilst using a computer I prefer to control the headset with my left hand as I’m using the mouse in my right. (Previous models could be adapted to use left or right handed). This is a real shame.

    Overview:
    Nice decent headphones that are comfy to wear and definitely a huge upgrade from the previous model – are they worth the RRP definitely not. If you can get them for around 100 or under then they are worth it if you use them daily.

    In the box you do get a nice leatherette pouch that jabra sell for 85 separately – maybe this should be a cheaper case to reduce costs.

    I didn’t get the stand – but was shocked jabra are selling this for 75. The accessories are stupidly expensive.

    This headset is almost practically perfect in every way. Sound quality and battery life are great, 4/5 hours a day and I get told battery is medium at the end of a week. Very comfortable to wear, my only criticism is that the headset can slide a little if you’re in the habit of moving your head around too much and too quickly. Otherwise perfect.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI’ve tried a few Headsets now without finding the right one until I bought this. It is excellent, no loss of connection, the wireless range is brilliant and best of all, the sound quality is truly high quality across all ranges.

    Also, the desktop software to adjust sound settings and preferences is really intuitive and easy to use.

    I use 8×8 unified communications as my phone line and it works perfectly, as it also does with MS Teams and for general use, such as music and video.

    I can’t stress enough how good this headset is. Well done Jabra you’ve blown the competition out of the water and you’ve now got a customer for life.

    Generally this is a really good headset. In-use it works really well and has some really nice features (eg lifting the mic beam to mute). Unfortunately are a few things that are not quite so good. My fianc’s 30 Bluetooth headset has far superior background cancelling on her mic. So people can’t hear me talk when she’s mid convo, but people can hear her talking during my conversations (when I’m not speaking). Sometimes it doesn’t connect as easily, but I just pull the usb connector out and push it back in. Battery life is really good so far – several days on standby. All-in-all very good and looks great. A little over priced

    I’m basically on back to back VC calls every day, you probably are too if you’re reading this. I share a home office with my partner so I was looking for something to make that workable.

    The microphone is excellent, I can type on my keyboard and others on the VC barely hear it. My wife can be on a call about 5m away from me, and others on the VC can barely hear that either.

    These sound great, audio is very clear, they feed your own voice back into the mix which is awesome, it results in me speaking quieter which is also good for our shared co-working space. Listening to music sounds good on this, I didn’t expect that.

    The can connect to multiple bluetooth devices at the same time, this means I can connect to both my Portal (which I use for VC) and my laptop and it will “do the right thing”.

    They are tight on my head, after 4 hours they are a touch uncomfortable – that’s the only downside IMHO.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersSo far these are excellent. The sound quality is amazing and the battery life is 30 hours plus. Comfortable to wear even during long calls and the fact two devices can connect seamlessly is great. I also like the teams button, at first I thought it was a gimmick but it’s actually really useful to join meetings with ease. Another great feature is that you’re put on mute by lifting the mic, great feature if you need a drink, put it down and you’re unmuted. In summery if you spend a lot of time on calls then these are well worth the investment. Stop messing around with cheap 20-40 headsets, get a pair of these and you won’t be disappointed.

The firmware update experience on the Mac was a nightmare when you compare the ease of doing this on a Widows 10 PC. Jabra have recently updated their software so it will be interesting to see if this improves after I write this (Feb 2021).

    A great product, well made and comfortable for wearing for long periods. I wear hearing aids that fit on my ear with amplifiers in the ear that allow sounds to pass by, and can wear mine whilst using the Jabra headset without interference or feedback. The Jabra’s fit on my ear, not over it and so hearing aids collect sounds from outside and transmit them into my ears in addition to Headset sounds. I find that I have to generally use 60-70% volume on my headsets, my previous wired headset was set at about 14% with 100% being too noisy. There is no likelihood of too noisy using the Jabra’s which I guess is a good thing and designed in, but it takes some getting used to for someone like myself who favours having a lot in reserve.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersInitially the price of this headset (and others in this price range) was slightly off-putting. Just how much better could it be than a cheaper headset or indeed my trusty wired Sennheiser. The answer is… quite a bit.

    The headset has a nice solid feel to it, with excellent padding on the ears and the headband (something frequently overlooked). As I’m generally on calls or meetings for 4+ hours in a day this is actually quite relevant. Also relevant is the (optional) audible warning and reminders when you go on or off of mute – as well as the two ways of doing this.

    Customisable functions, through an app, is a nice touch – such as turning a ‘busy’ light on the side of the headset on or off.

    Battery life has been good, I generally charge it every two to three days and I rarely let it get to a low battery warning, meaning it could probably manage most of the week without attention if I were less talkative.

    I got the option configured for MS Teams and it has been quite useful to work with some of the utility button functions built in to that. Being able to wander off and make a coffee whilst in a meeting is an unexpected bonus and doesn’t have any noticeable impact on the sound quality at about a 7-10m range.

    Would I buy one of these to see out the rest of lockdown if I didn’t plan to use it beyond that? Probably not – there are plenty of high quality wired units for around half the price. However, I got this because I anticipated using it for several years to come and, so far, there is nothing to indicate that it won’t be capable of meeting that expectation.

    Overall, it is a good investment if you expect to use a headset regularly and want something high enough quality to last well and be comfortable for extended use. There are probably better units out there but for most of us the differences would likely be splitting hairs. If you want a solid, competent effort then this is one worth considering.

    Golden Review Award: 14 From Our UsersI thiught I’d give some informative insights as I had such questions when i was looking for a headset.

    This headset has helped with the sudden spike in conference calls I’m on! And has been so useful!

    Battery usually lasts a week – which is great considering I’m on calls for about 4-5 hours a day and I also listen to a bit of background music during the day as well… It takes about an hour to fully charge, so pretty quick recharge. You can still use it whilst it’s being charged (type-c connection)

    The Mic is really good, drowns out quite a few sounds. Made more for office sounds eather than home (2 year old demanding a chocolate will be picked up!). The Mic rotates to both sides so you can place the headset on either ear.

    The Mic goes on mute if its up right and you can answers calls by either pressing the button on the headset or bring the mich down to answer the calls.

    You can also link it up to 2 devices at a time (e.g. laptop and mobile phone). Although only use one at a time.

    The headset lights read when I’m on a call. Purple when I’m not.

    The teams function is purely to answer calls and end calls using the button on the headset. It’s been useful when I’ve had my headset on and I’m making tea or changing a nappy, i just press the teams button or bring the mic down.

    You don’t need to use the USB dongle, you can connect via Bluetooth but the dongle enables the additional features (mic answering, teams functions etc).

    I was a bit conscious about the price, but it’s a great investment given that I’ve used it everyday for almost a year now! It comes with a charging cable and a carry pack.

    Sure, they’re a bit pricey but hey. I’m in lockdown. And I’m working all hours godsends – and usually sat on video calls a few hours a day, so why not spend a few quid?

    I was really wary over on ear rather than over ear but they fit snug and they’re kinda soft and padded just right. Sure, they run a bit warm on long (1-3h) calls from my own body heat against the pads but that’s fine.

    Battery life is really good. I’ve got a usb-c cable on the desk for my iPad anyway so I just plug them in every few days.

    The jabra desktop software (I’m using Windows 10) is good, easy to understand and is often updated – on install there was a big firmware update and yesterday there was a big software update. I tweaked quickly to set sleep to 30 minutes (instead of 8h), favoured bass, and turned on intelligent noise cancelling.

    Build quality is exceptional. I bought two pairs and both myself and my wife love them. Even coming with a carry case which is a nice touch.

    And finally, fit. If you think of Bart Simpson, I’ve got a similar shaped head. Let’s say it’s not that small. And these fit well. Sure, I’m on the end of where they extend but I don’t notice any pinch, etc and I’m happy with them.

    Oh, another finally (that’s just wrong) – I’ve been told sound quality to the recipient is good, and call quality for me is superb – the best I’ve ever had.

    Das Headset kommt in der USB-C Variante mit einem kleinen Dongle, den ich zunchst nicht gefunden habe. Dieser ist sicher in einer kleinen Aussparung in der eigentlichen Aufbewahrungstasche des Headset “versteckt”. Die Kopplung mit alle bei uns im Haushalt befinmdlichen Gerte war sofort mglich und funktioniert sehr gut. Sprache wird sehr natrlich bertrage und das Mikro ist schwenkbar. Dabei wird dieses auch gleich stummgeschaltet. Insofern ein echtes Plus in der Usability. Laufzeit ist auch sehr gut. Das Headset bersteht zwei komplette Homeoffic-Tage ohne das geladen werden muss.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThis is a great headset, battery life is amazing, sound quality is sharp and clear, the microphone is amazing, people hear me very well during the calls. But I feel it could be a bit more comfortable. There is a problem with the stability: due to its weight distribution it rotates on your head when you nod your head. Last but not least my biggest problem is about its build quality. The lid on the left side moves around and it’s quite noisy. You can find enclosed a video about it. Should I use some glue to fix it?

    Very well made and comfortable to wear. Really good sound quality for calls and for music. I have these paired with my laptop for Skype and Teams for Business calls, and with my mobile for calls and Spotify. Don’t be put off by them being ‘optimised for MS Teams’ as they work just as well when not being used for Teams. Some nice features, such as muting when you move the mic boom up. Good call management when you are paired with two devices. The app is nice to use, and gives some customisation options. Battery life is really good. I hammer these, and I get 2 weeks between charges. The volume has a good range, both low and high. I find most headphones don’t go low enough with my Samsung S9, especially with my Mum, who shouts. These go down to a very low sound level.

    The range using the supplied dongle is extremely poor – about 3m in a house. Nowhere near the claimed range. You can’t wander into another room whilst on a conference call for example. With very my old Plantronics set I could leave the house and get to the end of the garden whilst remaining connected.

    They are a little on the bulky side compared to other headphones. No use for running, or vigorous walking, as they move around too much and easily fall off, even tilting your head causes them to fall off. Doesn’t always automatically connect to my Samsung S21 Ultra. I often have to turn the headset power off and on to connect.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersAfter owning the Jabra Evolve 40 wired headset and being quite happy with, I thought I’d up my game with a decent wireless headset.

    Setup was easy enough, did all the firmware updates and the headset initially appeared to work fine.

    Then the problems….

    1 – When joining a Teams call the volume jumps to 96%, regardless of what I changed it to. I have attempted adjust the volume in every place I can find within Windows 10 with no luck. I have an ongoing support case with Jabra.

    2 – A new issue I’ve found this morning when on an call, if I receive multiple teams messages while on the call it will kill the audio to the headset, yet keep me on the call. The only way to resolve is to leave the meeting and rejoin. Another ticket to raise to Jabra.

    Currently unimpressed when I had such high expectations from someone such as Jabra, and of course having a high purchase price.

    I’ll update when I have further news.

    UPDATE – 04/11/20

    Changed from 1 to 4 stars.

    So a software update for Jabra direct was released last week. This software is used to manage and tweak the settings of the Jabra headset. Installing this update seems to have resolved the volume issue (phew).

    The busy light on the side also appears working (when it wasn’t before).

    I have also plugged the dongle (Jabra Link 380) used by the headset to talk to the laptop from the docking station hub to the laptop, and since haven’t suffered any call drops (so far).

    I’ll post another update once I’ve trialled the headset for a longer period.

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersBefore buying this headset I read the other reviews and was concerned that there was a number of 1 star reviews with various grievances, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised using it.

    You will need to update the firmware on the headset and usb dongle in order to use it to it’s full. For some, this fact alone appears to be a big issue, but I feel this is now relatively standard for IT equipment i.e. you need to keep up to date with the latest drivers, software etc.

    The update of the firmware was relatively straightforward. You can update the headset directly from your mobile phone using the jabra app and the bluetooth connection. Alternatively you can download the Jabra direct software and update it that way. The usb dongle can only be updated through your PC/Mac using the jabra direct software, so if you only have a work computer without install rights then this could be annoying for you. I initially tried updating the firmware using my Mac but this failed. There appeared to be an issue with the software on the Mac, so just to be aware. I used my Windows 10 PC to upgrade the firmware without incident, it was very easy.

    The sound quality on the headset is good to my ears, I am no audiophile but I can’t tell much difference to my fancy AKG headphones when listening to music. Others have complained of the volume fade up as sound starts, but I can’t say this has bothered me personally. My use case is for skype and teams calls for work and listening to music etc, but if you want to use it for dictation then maybe this will be more of an issue.

    The ‘noise cancelling’ effect of the headset are pretty limited. It does not have active noise cancelling technology but rather uses passive noise cancelling such as the shape of the earpiece etc (according to their website). To be honest, I don’t notice much difference than a decent pair of over the ear headphones, so if you expect perfect silence while wearing them then prepare to be disappointed. You will likely have to spend some serious cash to get very good noise cancellation.

    I’ve had no issue with connection using both the USB dongle and the Bluetooth function. I’ve tried connecting to my laptop (dongle) and phone (bluetooth) at the same time, but to be honest find this fiddly as it’s not always obvious which device you are controlling when using the buttons on the headset. For example, I wanted to turn the volume down on my PC but it changed the volume on my phone instead. When you are in an active call on one device, usually this becomes the dominant connection. But for me, it’s simpler to have it only connected to my work PC.

    I bought the Microsoft teams verified version and after the firmware update is recognized as such by the Teams software. This means the central function button on the headset will call up teams, answer calls etc as expected.

    The call quality has been good in use, and is as clear as my previous wired headset. Much of this is down to internet connection as much as the headset itself, so not much to report in this respect. The microphone is short and so is not located in front of my mouth as my old headset was but it picks up the audio just fine. This is actually good as you can sip water etc with the mic down.

    Someone else had complained about the ergonomics of the design, but I have not has any issues. They are comfortable to wear and lightweight. They do not grip my head tightly, so if you move around a lot they will fall off, but for sitting at a computer, or walking normally around the room they are fine. Sure you can’t do HIIT wearing them, but they are not designed with that in mind.

    Another reviewer had complained about the build quality, but again I can’t see much wrong with them. Sure they are made from plastic…. but most products of this type are. They are light, but this suits me as I don’t want to wear a heavy headset for 8 hours a day. My only comment is that the adjustable band appears to be medium to large in size, so if you have a small head they might not fit very well.

    The battery has lasts for multiple days use after a charge, which is much longer than my other Bluetooth headphones. I have not had them long enough to comment on the robustness of the design to wear and tear or whether the charging cycle will reduce the battery life significantly, so I will update this review in a few months with comments on this.

    Would I recommend them? For the price I paid for them (135) I would say they have been good. When I looked at the alternative wireless stereo headsets this was one of the cheaper options, and I think they are fit for purpose. Are you going to be blown away by them… no. They do what they’ve been designed to do, and they do it to a reasonable price point.

    For working in an office/WFH where you want a wireless headset for calls and listening to music then I would recommend. For other use cases, such as gaming or exercise etc you will want to look elsewhere.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersSince working from home and spending a lot of time on the phone I’ve tried a number of headsets. These are the best I’ve used by a mile. Sound quality is excellent. One & only minor issue is you have to bend the microphone away from your mouth, and it slowly bends back.

    Full of really great touches – separate buttons for mute and volume mean no accidentally hanging up on calls. Power switch is an on/off slider, so I don’t have to hold a multifunction button wondering when it’s actually off. When you turn it on a voice tells you the battery status. Lifting the microphone mutes the call (and the voice confirms it). Really really thoughtful design.

    All the other headsets are going to recyc, as my WFH setup is now this headset and a similarly excellent Jabra 510 speakerphone. In fact the speakerphone is so good it’s why I looked at their headsets.

    Thoroughly recommended.

    Pros
    – Battery life is great. Not only the usage time, also the storage time with power switch off, the battery will not be obviously drained by itself.
    – Sound is good, it is pretty satisfied on both sides during calls, especially compared with usual music headphones.
    – Bluetooth dongle connection is smooth and fast.
    – Overall built quality is good, and pouch is nicely designed with a little pocket inside to hold the usb dongle.

    Cons
    – Headband is too fit, needs trying different positions to let it lay on the head comfortably. However, once it is set, the comfortability is still ok for a conference session.
    – Microphone boom arm turning angle is limit, it cannot be turned to another side like previous one. Also the boom arm shape is fixed, not able to adjust.
    – Jabra Direct desktop app is a bit buggy, like it cannot do the update properly.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great battery life, good for conference

    Bin absolut begeistert. Hatte davor das Jabra Elite 45e, da hatte sich das Mikro allerdings immer im Bart verhngt, wodurch man stndig Strgerusche hatte. Das Evolve2 65 hat dieses Problem natrlich nicht, im Vergleich zum Elite 45e ist der Ton um Welten klarer, der Sidetone (Wiedergabe der eigenen Stimme beim Sprechen) ist deutlich lauter, es macht wahnsinnig viel Spa damit zu telefonieren. Verarbeitung ist ebenfalls super, Akkulaufzeit top, rundum ein geniales Headset.
    Bei kleinen Kpfen knnte es allerdings etwas zu locker sitzen, bei mir ist es schon sehr locker, hlt aber. Zudem habe ich gelegentlich leichte Strgerusche, jedoch wirklich sehr leise und nicht wirklich strend.
    Absolute Empfehlung.

    Great piece of kit if you’re doing lots of calls and zooms. Works well with Teams.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersI don’t write reviews very often, but these headphones moved me to write one. I just can’t understand the low ratings from other reviewers. I’ve tried a string of headphones over the last 18 months, from the higher-end Bose and Sony headphones (current bestsellers on Amazon) to the cheaper Chinese headphones, and I haven’t been fully happy with any of them. I was turned onto Jabra because we use their headsets at work. They seem to just work and appear to be indestructible. So I thought I’d give these a try. Wow. The sound quality for music really surprised me. Great base, clear high tones and fantastic separation. But I use them mainly for work, and I haven’t had any problems with software using it on MS Teams, Zoom or Skype. I’ve synced it with my desktop (using the USB dongle), my laptop and with my phone without ANY problems. This thing just works! And the ability to mute or unmute by just moving the microphone arm up or down is genius. Voice is amazingly clear and I can hear a very subtle noise-cancelling and enhancing when using it for voice calls which is really nice. Overall, I am more than happy with these headphones. The build is just right – not over-engineered lke the Bose or Sony headphones. And I actually prefer these for music to Bose and Sony. Perfect headphones for these “new normal” days.

    Golden Review Award: 14 From Our UsersUtilis avec Microsoft Teams tous les jours, et parfois avec Jabber.

    Les bons points :
    – Le casque est agrable porter, mme 8h par jours.
    – Le son est bon (mme pour la musique)
    – On m’entends bien et je m’entends aussi (option active par dfaut, c’est agrable)
    – Isolation passive assez russie
    – Le logiciel Jabra Direct permet la mise jour du casque et sa “personnalisation” (options audio, nom, etc)
    – Peut tre connect directement en Bluetooth l’ordinateur (MAIS, voir aprs)

    Les points amliorer :
    – Le prix, a reste un produit cher
    – Si connect en Bluetooth sans utiliser l’adaptateur : les boutons ddis (Teams dans mon cas) et les LED lumineuses ne fonctionneront pas. C’est dommage de devoir absolument bloquer un port USB-C sur les 3 USB dispos sur mon ordi.
    – Pas de rduction de bruit active, ou pas trs visible ni au niveau du micro ou des couteurs

    Works very well with incall performance in MS Teams. I know as i use teams all day every day. Button intergation for teams is excellent. Sound and mic quality v good as is battery life. Week 3 with these and not re charged yet. Worth the money as competition is limited.

    Update….wk 4

    The dedicated MS Teams button WILL NOT WORK. it should answer calls and hang up but it wont!!! I think its a Microsoft issue rarther tan Jabra so i wont knock a star off. If you can get it to work please say!!

    Works with MS Teams ( to a point)

    I was expecting a product that was ok but these have exceeded my expectations. They work really well and I really like the fact it pauses sound when you put them down.

    I was nervous to purchase this with the number of negative reviews but I’m a week in and haven’t had any issues. I am not using the base station for it and just connecting the the computer directly via Bluetooth.

    Pros
    Good quality build, looks great
    The audio range is incredible, I’ve tried it across my whole flat, about 10m max and haven’t really lost signal
    The mute button and mute on boom are really nice features

    Cons
    Had to crank up the volume in the settings as the microphone is super quite. It’s now at max and just about ok.
    Not comfortable to wear after 3 hours or so. I need breaks.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersBeen using decent quality wired headsets for years, these are an expensive step up. The audio is clear for both calls and music, battery life is good (35 hours with constant daily use). The microphone is excellent, overall a good purchase if a little pricey.
    I’ve been working in a small temporary office at home with my wife, we are both loud and our calls often overlap. The mic is great at excluding extraneous noises, however, I can clearly hear my wife talking when I’m on a call and similarly my wife can hear my music or conversions (at normal levels). I had expected better noise cancelling at this price.
    I didn’t buy the cradle but the USB-A (to USB-C) cable is more than adequate. I wear these most of the day and despite having a big head they sit relatively comfortably on the ear. There is a decent amount of padding around the cup and the man made fabric isn’t sweaty!
    I have Bluetooth’ed to both my mobile and laptop and have had ZERO connection issues, indeed I have used every comms app out there without issue (Mainly MS Teams). It switches app, picks-up, re-connects effortlessly.
    I regularly wander off to make a brew or food during calls – just turn off the video, mute by moving the boom mic up and wander off to do whatever, jump back in at any time. I like this a lot, I’ve even sat in the sun at the back of the garden 30m or so away.

    5 star overall despite weaker than expected noise cancelling (btw My wife sits about 1m away)
