Headsets are not created equal, and I have four requirements that make a headset good: Comfort - while this one looks uncomfortable, it is actually quite pleasant to wear - with, or without, glasses. I wear this headset daily for at least five or six hours and I forget that I'm wearing it a half hour in. The rubber earpiece sits on your ear, not in your ear. Connectivity and range - This one has typical BT range when paired with a phone, but I get a good 50 to 60 feet (even through walls) when connected via the dongle. Pro tip - If you one of these and one of the Poly Voyager Focus headsets, then you can pair both with the same dongle and use the two headsets interchangeably by just turning power off on the one you're not using. Useful if you use the Focus at your desk and the 5200 when walking around. Sound quality - This isn't suited for listening to music for the noise reduction is outstanding and the sound on the "other end" is just like talking directly into the phone. Because it only fits on one ear, it doesn't reduce external noise for you (hence the Poly Focus), but the microphone does a great job in reducing outside noise. I have a habit of walking around the house when talking on the phone and sometimes walk over to the sink or microwave. The folks on the other side hear none of those distractions. For comparison, I also have a Jabra Talk 45 (also a decent set) but every distracting noise is heard on the other side. Charging and battery life - Battery life is realistically about 5 hours of talk time. This is actual talking/listening time, not "powered on" time, so unless you spend a lot of time on the phone, this should last all day. I generally charge mine every two days or so. Charging is a bit tricky. The battery base, as a concept, is great, but putting the headset into the cradle and making sure that it is in properly is a bit fiddly at times and the blue charging lights aren't very visible. Opening the case and placing the headset inside works far more reliably. As a gadget junkie, I have far more peripherals than I need, and this is one of the few that I'm not planning on upgrading.

Let me start by saying I have bought many of these headsets, all new. When plantatronics sold this headset it was quality, the sound was clear, it didn’t lose Bluetooth connection to your phone, it lasted, generally a year of daily use before declining. Now HP owns the former company Plantatronics, it is called Poly now. It is absolute trash now. How can you take a quality product and run it in the ground while still asking a premium price for it? This last headset bundle I purchased new, quit working while in the middle of a call only 2 weeks after purchase. It constantly lost pairing to my phone, the charging case doesn’t know whether to charge or discharge. I have constantly synced it to the Poly app for updates only to have it stop working again the next day. I have purchased 3 of these headsets in the past 2 months with all of them failing shortly after. I am a rational person in that I believe there is always a lemon in the manufacturing process but these have consistently proven it is not an isolated incident but a norm for a once great product. I returned the previous units that failed within the 30 day return period but it is just not worth the trouble anymore. My troubles may hopefully save you the hassle of this crap product.

This is my platronics 5200 Bluetooth earpiece. I know y'all are asking what the yellow is on the earpiece. After a couple of years of very hard use and a lot of sweat the rubber started cracking and coming apart right there but because this earpiece is so amazing I took Teflon tape and wrapped it to where it now holds firm. It's still a heck of a lot more comfortable then the can ambo earpiece I bought as a replacement so I've tucked my new earpiece in the drawer and I'm using my old one until it doesn't work anymore and hopefully by then I can afford to get a new one. It's well worth the value for the money just drop more on the back right now it charges quickly and lasts approximately a little bit over 6 hours. The wait is real life you don't even know that you're wearing it yet it is heavy duty. It is the easiest Bluetooth earpiece to use that I have ever run across. I wish I could have afforded to buy a new one but I didn't have the money to be able to do so. But the platronics is well worth the money! Personally I enjoy the 5200 it comes with a neat little charging case it is a lightweight unit but heavy duty Electronics on the inside. I can walk approximately 100 ft away from my phone and still be able to talk on it through this wonderful earpiece.

Poly Voyager 5200 UC Wireless Headset & Charging Case – This is a superb headset that has given me freedom to move around during calls. The has a dedicated dongle that prevents drop outs on calls as I have experienced with Bluetooth only headsets. The battery lasts well and charges quickly. In the case where I forgot to charge the headset, the charge cable can be connected while using the headset. The headset has been used for Teams, Cisco Webex, Slack and Zoom (to name a few) without issue. The mute and volume controls are on the headset which is useful when away from the PC on a call. I can move to any part of the house (away from the PC) and still remain connected to the call. Why I do this is for making coffee, searching for items needed during the call and for other stops needed for those longer calls. I recommend finding a copy of the older ‘Plantronics Hub’ software that makes managing calls better than the new suite in my opinion. The headset is also comfortable for me and I have used it for delivering training where I am on a call for many hours at a time.

Muy buen sonido y eliminación de ruido

Birkaç gündür kullanıyorum, çok hafif ve evden çalışanlar ve çağrı karşılayanlar için ideal. Dedike Bluetooth dongle sayesinde bağlantı stabil, mikrofonu sesi karşıya iyi iletiyor. Kulağınızdan çıkarmadan kullanabilirsiniz, rahatsız etmiyor.

El dispositivo cumple con todas las expectativas, su calidad de sonido no deja indiferente ni al emisor ni mucho menos al receptor ambos mantienen un habla, escucha sumamente nitida. Sorprende las prestaciones del dispositivo duración de la bateria, la comodidad de la carga, como retiene el ultimo numero que has marcado y la comodidad con la que puedes realizar una nueva rellamada, la comodidad para descolgar la llamada entratante sin tener que tocar el auricular, la comodidad para poder solicitar a traves del asistente de voz cualquier acción. En contra tiene que las almohadillas del oido no son comodas, para aquellos que deseen tener bien incrustada la misma en el oido, entiendo que eso es mejorable y debe de ser mejorado. Salvo ese inciso es perfecto, comodo y practico
