Wow! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! I’ve been looking for a small but good travel headset for loud sales environments. I’ve tried literally every earbud, including the jabra evolve2 earbuds but obviously earbuds. While they are portable they are nowhere near as good as a boom mic. Thanks for the video! I just bought this from you guys.
seriously considering this one. Case is still huge for someone who absolutely hates taking calls directly on my mobile. As such, my headset & case is nearly always in my pocket. Still searching for the smallest charging case that contains a mono headset having a boom mic with great noise cancellation. Suggestion: your noise cancellation demo: need to equalize the sound of your speaking voice when switching between devices. In this video, when you switch to the BH71, yeah, the background noise is lower, but so is your voice.
Thanks for watching, Shawn. In our microphone tests, we simply connect the headset to the computer and hit record and we never adjust the volumes, so out of the box this is what you can expect. That being said, you could adjust the microphone if you're connecting to the computer in your microphone sound settings to a level you'd prefer.
Good review! I've watched several of your reviews of some similar one ear headsets. I will mainly be using it when walking - it's a good time to call your friends. What seems to be the problem with all of these products(also from other people's reviews) is the lack of sound in terms of hearing the person you're talking to. Regardless if it's this or jabra talk 65 etc. Of all the products with one ear is it one which stands out to you in terms of hearing quality? Thanks!!
I'm so glad I saw this video before buying the Plantronics Savi S8245. It had so many mixed reviews and I just spent the past few days paranoid on which to get. I've decided on purchasing the Yealink BH71 Workstation Pro, but now need to figure out which VoIP Phone from Yealink would suit my needs. Given I want an easy to manage but up to date phone I can properly sort through and do & record video calls on. As well manage team chats, so the screen has to be big enough so that I can pair it to the headset device but also my desktop pc and/or laptop.
Glad we could help :) keep in mind, at the current time the BH71 will not work on a thirdy party desk phone aside from Yealink. There's an accessory coming soon that will allow the BH71 to connect with other desk phones.
Dave, do you know what the IPx water intrusion rating is? My Poly V5200 is great, but sweat kills it on my 12 mi. rides. The BlueParrott M300 XT is water resistant, but it has no "Pause" button for anything on audio playback, I checked with their (very responsive) tech support group. So I am looking for, (a.) water resistance (IPx4 or 5) (b.) and a pause/resume button for audiobooks, podcasts and such.
There's no IPx rating for this either so it will be similar to your V5200. The closest headset that checks the boxes while still being low profile is here ruclips.net/video/7tm9PAU0-lE/видео.htmlsi=vAxUK40JLnfs_taq
@@HeadsetAdvisor, thanks. But it's okay. I was playing with the BlueParrott V300 XT and found that one long press on the multi-function button will PAUSE the audio and 2 short presses will RESUME the audio. I have tried this with audio books and podcasts. Even BlueParrott tech support did not know the M300 could do this.
Can you buy the base station separately? I find it hard to spend a full 300 and wondering if the headset and charging case would be fine if I work hybrid.
It can be answered on either the workstation touchscreen will show an incoming call with a green answer button you can touch to answer or use the headset answer button on the earpiece.
Hi! Please advise me, headphones with the best noise reduction microphone for working from home. Those that block out extraneous sounds better, such as: a dog barking, a child screaming, and others. I am looking for such models: Yealink UH38 Dual UC BAT Yealink WH62 Dual UC Sorry, for my English.)
Does the mute botton actually mutes the headset though? if you arent using Team or other apps similar. Or does it just mute the mic from the app you are using?
Can I have this connected to my Grandstream GXP-2160 via the EHS60/ my PC via USB-C / and connected directly to my mobile via bluetooth all at the same time? That would be my dream setup.
Unfortunately this model won't work with the Grandstream GXP-2160 at this time. You could get the Yealink WH63 with the EHS35 but you'd sacrifice the ability to connect with a mobile phone.
I have the BH71 workstation and my main issue is that the ear tips piece is awful. Whatever material it is, it’s terrible. I tried all sizes and it just doesn’t properly close the ear canal so the sound leaks out. Also the ear piece doesn’t feel secure because of the rubber tip. They could easily fix this if they switched to a different material like foam or something better than what comes out of the box. Unfortunately there is no after market option so for me this headset just doesn’t work. Other than that, excellent software, excellent design, just needs to figure out the ear tips
Will it connect to TWO cellphones with Multipoint or is it limited to ONE? I have TWO cell phones a deskphone and a PC id like to have all run through one headset.
I have one of these i bought from hs advisor. It is paired to two phones. Just have to make sure bt is off on the phone i don't want to connect too or i put that phone is a bag thats a faraday cage to prevent it from connecting to that phone when i turn it on
It's hard to know if it's a hardware issue or if that's the performance. No noise canceling microphone is perfect and they all have their limitatons depending on sound and the the type of noises.
That would not be recommended but yes it’s works great with zoom you can answer and end calls from the headset but dialing from the touchscreen would be less effective than dialing on the computer
This unit looks like exactly what I need but I have been told that this only works with Bluetooth 5.0 or higher devices, is that correct? I can not find any information on Yealink website, the product manual and nobody mentions it in any video. I would like to connect via Bluetooth a Unifi desk phone with Bluetooth 4.2 and my iPhone 14 Pro
When connecting this headset to a desk phone you want to use the included connection cable rather than Bluetooth so I can't verify if Bluetooth would work or not. Contact us to confirm compatibility and we can guide you in the right direction. headsetadvisor.com/pages/contact-us
@@HeadsetAdvisor My desk phone doesn't have a USB port so that's not possible. I've ordered one and we'll see how it goes. Wish there was a bit more information out there. Even the manual is vague.
@@e.colemantlpss6406 This headset isn't best made to connect via Bluetooth to an incompatible desk phone as a heads up. So, if desk phone connection is important this headset wouldn't be the best way to go.

The best is Poly, but the problem is the quality 😂 10/10 for the function but 1/10 for quality, I had over 10 in a year and they always brakes, stop working not charging. Plantronic Legend was at least better in quality but the charger was special for just legend! Jabra talk 65 is close to Poly, would say quality 10/10 but function was 7/8 of 10 only problem is like yealink is the volume 😂 it’s sooooooooooo low specially jabra talk 65…. I use now AirPods Pro, they are so much better than does Bluetooth but the sound quality for other line is ok but not like Poly or Jabra, does 2 is 10/10 AirPods is like 6/10 and if it’s windy Poly and Jabra are still amazing! I wish Jabra only could high up the volume 😅

Not that we're aware of.
Hi. For use on a desktop phone, can the call be answered on the workstation or does it have to be answered from the earpiece button?
It can be answered on either the workstation touchscreen will show an incoming call with a green answer button you can touch to answer or use the headset answer button on the earpiece.
Do you ship to Europe/UK? I cannot find this for sale anywhere online except for your store!
Unfortunately we don’t at this time. This headsets brand new so stock should start to show globally soon.
Compared to the Voyager 5200, which mic sounds better overall and which is better at noise cancelling?
Accordingly to our blind headset test for 2023 the bh71 out performed the 5200 at sounding better and noise cancellation.
Hi! Please advise me, headphones with the best noise reduction microphone for working from home. Those that block out extraneous sounds better, such as: a dog barking, a child screaming, and others. I am looking for such models:

WH62 would be good.
@@HeadsetAdvisor Thank you!
Does the mute botton actually mutes the headset though? if you arent using Team or other apps similar. Or does it just mute the mic from the app you are using?
Yes, it still mutes the mic. It doesn't have to be Teams for mute to work.
Does the portable charging box come with a slot to put the USB plug… not a must have, but it is a buzz kill if it doesn’t
Yes it does! Very convenient I agree almost a deal breaker.
You mentioned the ear piece is not very loud. How does it compare to Voyager 5200?
Hmm I haven’t done both side by side to say for certain but I’d guess both very similar.
Can I have this connected to my Grandstream GXP-2160 via the EHS60/ my PC via USB-C / and connected directly to my mobile via bluetooth all at the same time? That would be my dream setup.
Unfortunately this model won't work with the Grandstream GXP-2160 at this time. You could get the Yealink WH63 with the EHS35 but you'd sacrifice the ability to connect with a mobile phone.
Yealink confirmed that the EHS60 is NOT compatible with the BH71
