    The audio coming through from Jabra is more natural as opposed to Poly which sounded a bit mechanical. This video has been a savior. I've searched for good wireless options for almost 6 months now and was going nuts with the plethora of options out there. Your thorough review came to my rescue. Thank you again.

    I disagree about 10/10 comfort for Jabra Evolve 75. I have both. I just got the Focus 2. Like you said, it feels lighter on my head. It also feels better on my ears. The Jabra Evolve 75 put pressure on my left ear. It was leaving a mark/bump on my ear and headset earcup.
    I'll update you more if anything changes with Focus 2.

      ​@@HeadsetAdvisor Definitely! For the Focus 2 being about the same weight as t75, the Jabra Evolve, the Focus 2 feels a lot lighter. I think it has to do with the headband style/design. It gives it a lot less pressure at the top.

      I have the Evolve 75 and thinking to get the Focus 2. I like everything about the 75 except for when I'm speaking I'm unable to hear myself as clearly/loud as I'd like therefore its a bit awkward. I tried using the "side tone" feature but its doesn't really sound like myself and to leave it off I have the awkward feeling. Do you feel when using the Focus 2 you can hear yourself clearer/louder versus the 75? Thanks

    • @HeadsetAdvisor
      @HeadsetAdvisor  10 месяцев назад

    I wanted to like the focus 2 BUT when the noise level increases the Poly ANC has more artifacts and the voice sounds more artificial than the Jabra.

I may still get the Focus 2 for build and feature set and since I work in a relatively quiet environment I think it will be ok

    Thanks so much for this comprehensive test, I truly appreciate such an effort! I already use the Jabra Evolve 75 and looking for a headset with an even better noice canceling in regards of the mic. So that the person on the other side (nearly) doesn’t hear anything.

      @HeadsetAdvisor  Год назад

      Hi Marco, we've done a number of range tests and we found the range is typically 50-80 feet. It's very hard to know if it will give the range you need in your environment without trying it yourself. If you only need computer connectivity, the Engage 55 would be a better way to go to ensure you get enough range ruclips.net/video/m3MMDVAtU3g/видео.html

    Hi David,
    You doing a great job with this kind of video's, i like it very much!
    I have a question, i am using a Jabra 85H ANC BT headphone, do you tested this one? I use it for MS teams and phone calls, but i recieve complains about background noises with this headset. Probaly because the mic has no ACN but only the speakers?
    I also recentley changed to an IPhone 11, and customers say that they hear me not clearly anymore. I do not have this problem when i using it with a Samsung S6 android smartphone.
    Based on the facts above, i consider to buy the Jabra Evolve 75 or the Poly Voyager Focus 2 UC. Most of the time i use it with BT with my Iphone with a sip client app.
    Do you think this should work better with one of these 2 headsets, and match on the expectations of your video?
    Is it in generally an idea to test office headsets BT compatibillity against different smartphones?
    I looking forward to your answer, many thanks!

      Hi Maurice, thank you for your feedback and kind words! The Jabra 85H is a very good headset for personal use but isn't best for work related tasks like calls and video meetings. Either headset in this video will be a night and day better experience for callers on the other end to hear you clearly. No matter if you have an iPhone or Android phone, either headset will work great and we haven't heard any compalints with either phone being used.
      If you're in the US or Canada you can order direct from our website as well. If for any reason you don't love the headset you can return within 30 days and shippings covered both ways :) Don't forget to use coupon code RUclips headsetadvisor.com/

    Great informative video, the test approach is of great quality.
    Question regarding mic noise canceling quality: is there a difference between phone/laptop bluetooth vs dongle vs cable? Or is this mostly influencing voice and volume quality?

    • @HeadsetAdvisor
      @HeadsetAdvisor  2 года назад

      The noise canceling qualities would remain the same in all three of your examples. The reason is the noise cancellation is resident to the headset. So, no matter whether you're using it with a dongle, cable or wirelessly via Bluetooth, the NC capabilities remain the same. The same cannot be said for the voice quality however. In that case, I'd reverse your order by saying the best audio quality should be expected when hard wired, followed by dongle and finally Bluetooth. Hope this helps, and thank you for your question.

    I agree that the Poly is better at ANC and range, but for working from home in a relatively quiet environment, the Jabra is probably better as I find the voice clarity is much better on the Jabra. Listen to the cracking on the Voyager Focus 2 @24:26 and you can hear the wind when he's outside. The Jabra is also an older headset so I'd love to see the Evolve2 65/86 and forthcoming 75 compared to the Poly.

      @@HeadsetAdvisor Hi, thank you very much for recommendation, I will put it on my list. My concern with Jabra Evolve2 's is that on 65, sidetone function little like hearthrough - it passes in all sounds not only your voice. And on 85, ANC will turn off during sidetone and sidetone uses outer mics for capturing your voice and - sadly - sounds around you during sidetone ON. I read lot of posts that mentions it. Jabra stays away from it and cant give clear answer how sidetone should work on these models and if this is repairable software error or design flaw, which cant be repaired. And thats the reason Im looking elsewhere(I tried more 85 and 65 units and I cant make calls from home because of this). My biggest favourite is Voyager Focus 2. Or Jabra Evolve 75, which according to some users have better implementation of ANC during calls with sidetone. Thank you again for your recommendation.
