@@vishalsurve1641 Most of the earbuds we've tested really don't do that good for voice quality and mic noise cancellation, but Voyager Free 60 would be one to consider.
finally. based on these test, Poly at number 1. surprisingly, Sony #2 is not far behind considering it's not really focusing on UC space. followed by Logitech, Airpods, and last would be Jabra. Jabra seems did not cancel the noises at all
Good observation yea seems like that's the consensus here sony being decent at noise cancellation. Jabra doesn't advertise noise cancellation so I'm not surprised by that they probably just decided to focus more for quiet environment applications.
@@HeadsetAdvisor you're correct. just read their FAQ. "Is this the best headset for the noisy open office?" For open office environments, however, we always recommend using an Evolve2 headset with a boom arm and premium microphones.
Great review. I have the Jabra Elite 7 Pro and I get similar performance to what was shown here. Quiet environments the microphone performance is great but in noisy environments sometimes I feel as if it accepts all sounds coming from in front of it and only cancels out sound emanating from behind it (if its an open environment without sound reflecting around a room). Comparatively they brought in the most background noise in the mic tests. Consequently they've forced me to be more aware of the direction the microphones are pointed in tests for microphones with directional pickup. For example the pickup of vehicle road noise being louder if someone is walking along a sidewalk than if someone is showing their performance when their back is towards the road and thus the directional mic isn't picking up much to actually filter and reduce
Yes Jabra decided to not go with noise cancellation probably due to limited space for how slim the earbuds are which makes it more challenging when you have noises like road noise or office noises. Something to be aware of
Found for calls and meetings in office, anywhere loud (even driving a convertible) the Poly Voyager 5200 is best; they work great for communicating anywhere. I also have the Jabra Evolve2 Buds (nice for flexibility to listen to media, but noise cancellation not great and voice quality just ok if anywhere at all noisy). Sounds like (no pun intended) the Poly Voyager Buds might be almost as good as the 5200s. Great detailed review.
Unfortunately Sony doesn't sell the dongle at all so you can't buy it which is a super bummer but I'm sure if they get enough complaints they will sell the dongle seperate. Sony is new into the business headset space so they will evolve soon I bet.
You mentioned non-business types. Would you ever consider reviewing and comparing the Shokz OpenFit vs Oladance WS2? They seem comfortable and are in between- traditional vs bone conduction
damn I got a poly free 60 uc 😢 and it just cancelled my voice as noise all my fd comment are barley can hear me . manytime the traffic sound are not cancelled while I walking across the street.😢😢😢😢😢
I had the Sony Earbuds and loved their performance but they just wouldn't stay in my ears. Battery performance was poor imo also. Great review as always
@@HeadsetAdvisor Apple EarPods Pro are the defacto standard if you ask me. Pass through = sidetone. They do not play nice with MS Teams thought. Yes I've tried the Jabra Link 370 with them. Still hit and miss. This tech is way behind the times.
Getting the Airpods to work on PC is anything but simple. It is simply a NIGHTMARE. I'm sure apple made it so they are anything but "simply compatible". They disconnect often, the have severe paring issues, the mic does not function properly AT ALL, when they do connect they will randomly drop quality. I'm so happy I have $200 buds that are such a complete sloppy mess to use on my PC.... such a shame. Morons at apple don't realize I'm here to find new earbuds to buy and CHUCK MY AIRPODS IN THE BIN!!!!
Considering that in online calls it's important that people hear you, the quality of mics together with price is really poor here. Just disappointing. Thanks for review.
Thanks for watching! Hopefully one day manufactures further innovate to increase the performance of the microphone quality. I'm sure it's a tough challenge in such a small form factor.
@@HeadsetAdvisor Interesting since I was thinking of getting the Logitech Zone true wireless. So how does the Sony earbuds compare to Logitech’s in general? Meaning integration with pc, mic quality & noise cancellation? Because if it’s equal or better in those aspects maybe I should reconsider before making the purchase

Does the poly voyager free 60 totally handsfree for answering regular phone calls and whatsapp voice call without touching any button or the gadget?
I need earbuds for business calls when on move or train but with a mute function. Can you suggest?
@@ariefiron No, you have to touch the answer button on the headset.

Do you use it same way as in video - connected to PC? Because in general compared to phone, Windows+BT add another layer of issues.

great review as always...will you be testing the lab work buds soon to compare to these?
Thank you! Yes someone suggested it just the other day so that video I'm working on testing now. Probably video will release in a week or maybe two.
Really helpful, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for a great video! Do you know where I can find the dongle to use my Linkbuds with Teams?
Unfortunately Sony doesn't sell the dongle at all so you can't buy it which is a super bummer but I'm sure if they get enough complaints they will sell the dongle seperate. Sony is new into the business headset space so they will evolve soon I bet.
Sony seems to have the best ANC mic!
Interesting thanks for your feedback I felt the Poly Voyager Free 60 did a bit better in general in my tests but Sony did surprisingly well.
Does the jabra evolve2 buds totally handsfree for answering regular phone calls and whatsapp voice call without touching any button or the gadget?
Finally I got the Poly free 60+
How do you like them so far?

We may get into reviewing more consumer headphones in the future.

Unfortunately still as of 2023 earbuds underperform for mic quality and mic noise cancellation in comparison to traditional headsets with mic booms.
It's a forward slash, Dave!!! 😂 Other than that, perfect vid again as usual buddy 😁👍
😳

Thank you for the feedback! Ya the fit is a bit more unique so it’s not going to be for everyobe
what about Celest Wyvern Pro?
Who would've thought that the donuts take the price for best mic. 😊
We really do enjoy delicious maple donuts perhaps the circular shape helps them sound better..
@@HeadsetAdvisor probably. These are the only one in this test that I find acceptable for a professional meeting.
I wasn’t able to hear myself speak using the evolve 2s at any decent volume and so I returned them.
We don't blame you. Most earbuds don't have sidetone so you can't hear yourself.
@@HeadsetAdvisor Apple EarPods Pro are the defacto standard if you ask me. Pass through = sidetone. They do not play nice with MS Teams thought. Yes I've tried the Jabra Link 370 with them. Still hit and miss. This tech is way behind the times.
AirPods Pro work terribly with a PC as most PCs do not use AAC as their native BT CODEC. Since the audio quality downgrades to SBC which is not great
Correct
Getting the Airpods to work on PC is anything but simple. It is simply a NIGHTMARE. I'm sure apple made it so they are anything but "simply compatible".

Definitely the Sony is best for noise canceling
Those are some expensive earphones. I just went with Soundcore V10s
Thanks for watching! Hope the Soundcores work well for you.
Airpods are absolute shit on windows, the reason why iam here lol
🙂
If your laptop or tablet doesn't have usb because everyone's switching to USBC, they don't care about you. 😢
@@bola5671 the good news is many new headsets are now including both options
Sony are the best..
Homie set airpods have the best sound quality lmfao I'm out
They all sounded pretty terrible 😞
Agreed earbuds just don’t perform overly well. I just reviewed the new Sony XM5 earbuds which perform decent for earbuds.

The Sony Earbuds are garbage. They dont stay in your ears. Just talking, makes he shift and fall out.
Good feedback thank you.
They’re all god awful
