Plantronics - Voyager 5200 UC (Poly) - Bluetooth Single-Ear (Monaural) Headset - Compatible to connect to your PC and/or Mac - Works with Teams, Zoom & more - Noise Canceling

This headset is bigger than my old Jabra Storm. However, when I got a HD Audio-capable mobile phone, people started saying I had a lot of background noise in the car, using either the Storm or the car speakerphone. The old 2G wireless compression removed most noise, but 5G wireless passes through everything, like a landline does.With this headset nobody knows you are in the car. Even on the freeway. The noise cancellation is that good.It also comes with a special Bluetooth dongle which appears as an audio device, not a Bluetooth dongle, to the PC operating system. So if you plug that into a PC, Meet, Teams, and Zoom JUST WORK. No configuration beyond selecting the headset and microphone as your audio device. You can walk around the house and prepare your lunch while listening to a meeting.When you turn it on, the headset announces remaining talk time, and the phone will also display the battery percentage. You can voice dial the mobile phone by holding the button for a second. Bluetooth range is excellent; you do not have to carry the mobile phone around the room with you.It can coexist with a PC and mobile phone simultaneously without any switching. Only caveat there is that, if you are listening to PC audio and you do anything on the phone that makes a sound, the PC audio will be cut off for a couple seconds in favor of the phone audio.Putting the headset on one-handed is not so easy, but once you put it on it stays on and is comfortable. You can reverse it for either ear.Comes with a charging case. Both the case and headset charge via Micro USB, not USB-C. USB A cable included. Headset charges quickly, you can top up in a few minutes between meetings.

I use it for my work from home setup and it's perfect. I do IT support for a national retail chain, corporate and the stores. I can answer my Avaya office phone from my computer and this is perfect for that. No one has ever had a problem hearing and understanding me and I can hear them perfectly.It tells you in your ear PC connected/disconnected and talk time. It says 6 hours fully charged but I doubt that. After a one hour Microsoft Teams meeting and 4 hours of work only talking to a few end users when I come back from lunch it tells me three hours talk time. So it uses 3 hours of talk time for maybe an hour and a half of actual talk time. That being said, if I have several meetings or other long calls I charge it during lunch, and it's full again in that hour. I've never had it go dead during a 9 hour work shift.Range is good, when I go from my house to my garage (about 100 feet) it doesn't disconnect till about 60 feet even through the wall and aluminum siding, it reconnects at about the same range.The unit is lite and comfortable, sometimes I forget to take it off for lunch or after my shift.The one weird thing is it is REALLY loud in a Microsoft Teams meeting. I have to turn the volume down to 8% on my PC, I'd go lower but the mouse wheel or clicking the volume isn't sensitive enough.I highly recommend this, it's worth every penny. It's way better then talking through your PC mic and speakers or a full headset like you would use for gaming. Plantronics has been around since the 60's and I've used their products since the 90's, they are as professional and high quality as can be.

Overall, the headset works as advertised, wind cancelling (even when I talk with a Dyson vacuum running next to my mic and my caller can't hear that). UC works on my client's thin client network reliably.Nevertheless, the headset, the casing and everything else feels cheap. Its either very plastic or rubber and doesn't look well made even though it works (that's why you paid so much for it). The rubber get scratched easily (will be surprise it won't when it shipped to you). And once u feel the casing, you can understand why its highly scratchable.Battery life is decent, even though usually a session will announce that 1 hour of battery is gone. I kept it constantly in the casing and Bluetooth 5.0 should improve on it but this model haven't got any update since 2016 when it first came out.Another bad thing about this headset is the ear fit...you have to find alternatives if the 1 that comes with it doesn't fit, regardless of the 3 sizes. Yes it does cancel wind and noice for your caller but with a bad fit, even if they can hear u well, you won't be able to hear them because the noise affects your hearing as well. I have to pay extra to get another attachment and put a comply ear stub but it sounds funny and hollow after doing that.Overall, a product that works if you are looking at something that is reliable.

This lightweight headset at first seems like a godsend . Easy to install, feather light , good mic and earliece quality . But then the defects come out by week2 of usage .1. Unit constantly disconnects and reconnects to computer making that annoying Windows “device connected now” sound sometimes up to a dozen times a day !2. Ear piece cradle is decent ride . Earpiece does not settle correctly in cradle and if you don’t pay very close attention to the micron size notification lights , your ear piece doesn’t charge and goes dead .3. Six hours of talk time is a lie . Maybe 4 at best . Don’t beleive the computer voice that alerts you that you have 6. She is a liar !4. Poly customer support is a certified disaster . Managed by some Six Sigma process junkie who got his degree online and is designed to do nothing but frustrate Poly customers . For 3 months I’ve been working with customer service to get a full replacement unit and they keep saying “it’s coming” and it never arrives . They give you an 8 digit case number that they end up just arbitrarily closing oit for some weak reason.

Easy to pair. Extremely comfortable to wear. Sound quality is excellent. Talk time lasts all day. Nice compact cased and easy to recharge. Overall, very satisfied. Would recommend this product.
