Отзывы о Компьютерная гарнитура Jabra Evolve2 65 - USB-C MS Teams Stereo

On the phone most of the day. I love having hands free for making notes.

I bought and tried it with Teams, It didn’t work, So returned.

My Wife is a teacher and these headphones work excellent for her when teaching her class remotely through Zoom. Excellent Sound quality and Excellent noise cancellation. She Loves them!!

The sound on these is fantastic but they do hurt my head after about an hour (as do all headband-style headphones for me)

The battery life is amazing on these! They are fairly comfortable to wear, ears get a little hot sometimes from the foam liners but this head set is perfect for those who work from home.

Wore for 5 minutes and my ears hurt. Immediately returned. Medium size head, but my ears do stick out - not gonna argue about that. If you have big ears, beware.

Great product use, sound and Bluetooth range. Would recommend! You get what you pay for.

Fantastic product. Doesn't hurt ears. Good wireless range(both with dongle and Bluetooth) . I have connected this to two devices on Bluetooth and 1 device using dongle.

I use the headset to record videos, and the recorded voice breaks off -- clicks in and out. I used the headset for just a little over 30 days -- so can't return.

This is simple these headphones are amazing comfortable great sound noise cancellation is amazing if you’re serious about working from home you need these headphones it’s just simple

The package came with the headset, case and the USB port but no blue tooth link.

I would not trade them for a thing, changed my life

-I went back to using my old set because these are not compatible with all my WFH platforms-

I was really hesitant to grab these because of how pricy they were, but I’m so glad I did. I work from home and my job requires me to be tethered to my desk, because I have to wear a headset. My headset the Jabra Evolve replaces is a wired set that goes over the hears. It’s so nice to have a wireless set now. These do not go over my ears, but the earpieces are comfortable as they press against my head.

The headband is okay. I wore these for a shift today, and after wearing them for 8 hours, I didn’t experience any issue with tension from where the headband was resting.

The mic quality seems to be decent. I’ve had students say that my voice sounds soft, and there’ve been no complaints since I started using these. I also like the sound cancellation features for the background noise - my dog makes all the bork borks at any car that passes by, and sometimes can’t resist going a full 5 minutes of borking at the wind. My cat also like to work from home too and observe the birds, so it’s nice that his chatter isn’t easily picked up by the microphone.

The only thing I was not pleased with was the lack of literature. Only a card with warranty and start up information came in my box - there was nothing about how the headset worked, including how the buttons operate and which button does what. That was disappointing and the reason why I gave this 4 stars. While they are great and super comfortable, the lack of literature explaining how they operate and the button functions meant that I had to spend a lot of time playing around with them to figure out what did what. Unfortunately, I can’t do that when I’m working because it can hinder customer experience so I had to open a zoom call with my husband and figure out these functions on my own.

In the box, the headphones came in a nice carrying case, with the usb dongle and and a usb C charging cable. There was also a startup guide, which seemed to have instructions in general, which didn’t seem to relate to this specific headset.

I work 40 hour weeks, so I’ll update with how this does on a single charge for my work week.

Update: had to recharge the battery half way through the work week, so a single charge will not do a 40 hour week for me. Also microphone does not work with Vonage's OpenTok system, which is a huge part of my work and why I dropped the rating down to 3 stars. After reviewing the website, which is difficult to navigate, I realize that this headset really isn't meant for most WFH with the lack of support for windows PCs and a head set like this is far too expensive when a basic headset will handle Zoom and Teams, too, just as well.

I volunteer on a support line for patients with a rare disease and their caregivers. The shifts are a week long (waking hours only), but by the end of the first hour, depending on the headset, I'd either have a migraine or my ears would hurt. When using this headset, I can wear it all day, with nary a pain.

The range is phenomenal. My previous favorite headset could only get me to my kitchen -- and only halfway across the room, at that. With these headphones, I can walk across the entire kitchen, into the laundry room, and out the back door. With the back door closed, I can hear the music playing on my computer just fine. The manual says the range is about 100 feet, and I believe it. The sound quality is great! Whether I'm listening to my music on my PC or my phone, or whether I'm on a phone call, the sound quality is amazing. With my music, I can hear the booming lows of the bass and the highs of the soprano without any static. My mentees say they can hear my voice just fine.

When you get these headphones, they don't include much documentation, not even an owner manual. However, you will be able to find everything you'll need if you do an Internet search for "26599-999-999 owner manual". On the support page, you'll find the manual and other documentation, updates software, FAQs and a place to register your headset. You will also find helpful FAQs and the ability to register on the above link.

These headphones are worth every penny, and whether you use them for listening to music or for telephone calling, they deliver. BTW, these are meant for MS Teams, but it works equally well for the Ring Central software I use for my volunteer shifts.

These wireless headphones have excellent sound quality incoming/outgoing & are comfortable to wear for hours.
-The range is very good because it comes with a “Jabra Link 380a” Bluetooth dongle – I can leave my phone on the desk & go outside & walk around in my backyard while in a meeting with no cutting out – your results may vary depending on your house materials, etc. etc.
-I really like the flipping back of the microphone to mute – it tells you that it is muted/unmuted so you know for sure.
-They do a very good job muting background noise from your hearing. But they are not ANC – have to move up to the Evolve2 85 to get ANC.
-They have a very long battery life – I do not need to charge during the day. In fact, I can go at least 3 days between charge (your battery life may vary depending on much you use them, etc.). There is a voice prompt that tells you the battery level when you turn them on & will warn you when battery is low. Also can see the level on your phone in the Bluetooth settings.
MS Teams works great with these headphones – really easy to use.

A couple negatives:
-They do not come with a stand charger – that is extra cash. They just come with a USB-C charging cable. Even my old inexpensive headset came with a charging stand & that is a decent headset too.
-There is no manual – just a quick start printed in grey on a grey background on the box (odd choice). You have to go to the Jabra website for better instruction & dig around there to find it.

Very impressed with these headphones.

Not only are they sleek and cool looking (as far as work headsets go), but the audio quality is fantastic!

I use these all day for my work calls and love how easy these are to use. Not only can I hear the people on the calls very clearly, but they can also hear me without issue. My husband watches TV in the same room as me while I'm on calls and it seems to keep the background noise out of my calls which I was shocked about.

One feature which has been great is that you can mute/ unmute simply by pushing the microphone up/ down. Once muted or unmuted - the headphones says "muted" or "unmuted" so that you know it worked. Now I can mute without having to go back to the call window.

As for comfort... the fit is great and the ear cushions are so soft on my ears. They are the right size for my ears and allow me to wear them all day without issues. Some other headphones are too tight and give me a headache, but so far these have never caused a problem. In order to make the headphones larger, it is a smooth pull down (and it's quiet- no weird noises from changing the size like some of the cheaper options).

Setup is easy, but I did have to go to the jabra website to figure out how to connect. Once I had the instructions... it took less than 5 minutes. I have these connected to my HP Windows laptop - easy connect!

I would like to say that I own many Bluetooth headphones/headsets. Overall, these are the one of the worst I have tried over $150.00. First, they do not fit well. I can fit every headphone I have tried, but not these. My usage is limited due to fit.

With so many quality headsets on the market, I am not sure how Jabra was satisfied with these given the price range.

CONS:

-The headphones feel hollow and cheap.
-The headphones creak when you extend the arms
-Any head size over medium these will most likely not fit. The extending arms are short
-These are bluetooth, but will not connect to a windows PC without their own bluetooth dongle
-Sound is tinny and hollow

PROS:

-USB-C
-Pads have a nice soft touch feel
-Jabra makes good mics and that is no exception here

At $250.00 I would pass on these and look elsewhere. At $100.00 I would pass on these. Almost every similar style headset from Plantronics that I have tried is a better option.

I'd like to say that these Jabra Evolve2 65 MS Wireless Headphones live up to their pricetag, but the pair I received left me thoroughly disappointed. I really can't say anything about the sound quality or the noise cancellation - I know from experience that Jabra usually provides good sound quality and noise cancellation is touch and go, but the problem with these is that I couldn't get them to connect and stay connected long enough to adequately judge either feature. Battery life falls into the same category. This pair held their charge for quite some time, but that was without use since I got tired of fighting with them. After trying more times than I care to count, I've given up on these and have come to the conclusion that they aren't what I was hoping for. Not even close.

I spent a lot of time at my desk these days multitasking. Working from home, phone calls, virtual meetings, and all the other things you have to do in today’s world are made easier with a good headset. I like this one!

These are comfortable for a few hours but I did need to give my ear a little break as it felt like there was some pressure there after a while. I am still getting used to wearing headphones every day so for a habitual headphone user it may not be as big a deal.

It’s important to know that these are “on-ear” style. They do not cup the ear and create a “seal” around the area where your ear meets your head. They did not work for my family member who wears hearing aids.

My favorite feature of this headset has got to be the “busy” LED lights. When you’re on a call they come on. You can turn them on or off even when you’re not on a call. When working from home this is brilliant, you can tell your “coworkers” when it’s on you are not to be disturbed and it can be seen from front and back. Unfortunately, my coworkers are primarily my cats and use colorblindness as an excuse to continue to bother me. It’s still a pretty neat feature and the humans around tend to leave me alone when these are on. For the office environment-- it’d be a great way to subtly draw boundaries when you are trying to get stuff done.

The noise-canceling on these does not completely shut out the world like my Jabra earbuds or my Sony WH1000s but when on a call or listening to music it does help me zone out of what’s around me and focus. Reducing background noise is important when on a call. These did a decent job with sounds more than 3 feet away from me but on calls, my typing could be heard.

The app has the ability to play different soundscapes to help you focus. I like the pink noise one.

Pros:

Long battery life and quick charge when it does get low
Comfortable and adjustable
Great call quality
Busy red light

Cons:
Noise-canceling function could use some improvement
Occasionally disconnects from device if more than one is connected (phone and computer)
Rubber cups on outside of ear collect dust

Overall I think they’re a great product and the app was easy to use.

If you’re reading the review, I can only assume you’re wanting to know the answer to the following question: Are these worth $250?

In the age of WFH (Work from home) or WFA (Work from anywhere), we all need a great headset for our life in the virtual conference room.

This is my life, roll out of bed at 7am, get on a call and don’t get off until late in the afternoon. Including marathon 4 hour architecture workshops.

My biggest beef with earphones or Air Pods is quite simply battery life. Anything inserted into the ears also causes fatigue after some amount of time. Granted I’ve built up my tolerance but still.

So do over the ear headphones make more sense? Sadly, yes for a number of reasons.
That inner ear fatigue reduction, but add weight to your head/neck that they don’t.
Control and volume, with earbuds, you’re options to mute are somewhat limited. You can push the button on the side, or tap them, or whatnot. Often risking dropping the call by hanging up by accident. Or relegated to using your phone’s mute or finding the zoom/Teams windows buried on your desktop under your presentation just to mute/unmute. Not the case with these.
Battery Life, I can get 3.5 hours out of a set of AirPods Pros on a good day. Then you have to start juggling them. Going single ear while you try to get another one charged.

Pros:
Battery life, all day… Actually multi-day. If you forget to charge them you’re still good to go.
Fairly lightweight, vs Bose
Great microphone boom, flip up to mute, pull down to talk. Take back control.
Easy to use tactile buttons on the right ear.
Great integration with the right platforms. Teams, in this case, you have a dedicated Teams button you can customize.
Great sound quality, both audio and microphone.
A better than average app experience.
Self pairing USB Dongle. Nothing to install, just plugin and use. Worked great with my Mac and paired simultaneously to my iPhone. For what it’s worth, my preferred mode is to use my phone for the audio portion of the calls so that I can be mobile. These are Bluetooth so I’m not ‘tied’ to my computer with a cable but it doesn’t make it from my office to the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee. Hence the phone option.
The ON AIR / Busy light is critical for work from home use so family knows you’re on a call. Both auto and manual modes are available.

So what’s not to love?

Lack of ANC, for $250 you should get that. Yes, Evolve2 85’s have it. These should too.
Honestly, they don’t grip my head great, they sit on the ear, not over.
The packaging was SPARSE. In fact I thought I got an open box item. But the lightweight frustration-free packaging is what you get (or what I got), just a box, nothing fancy. Not really a con but not what I was expecting, usually Jabra does better at this.
I mean, no getting started guide, just a little pamphlet to charge them and get the app.
The Bluetooth dongle is hidden in a little pouch in the case. This isn’t the norm, usually, they are separate.

So back to the question at hand. Are these a $250 headset? If your company is paying, yes, of course. If you’re footing the bill out of pocket? Find a coupon or deal. Without ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) then no, there are better options). But they are a solid value in the $200 or sub $200 range.

At the end of the day. I love everything about these but the price point. Yes these are 5 Star headphones.

Sadly this Jabra headset hit me like a swig of tepid beer - not quite what I was hoping for, definitely not what I expected, but ultimately they get the job done in a pinch. I've come to know Jabra as making some truly great, high quality and great sounding bluetooth audio products, but this headset isn't one of them.

BUILD QUALITY:
These are meant to be lightweight and comfortable for hours of continous wear, and I get that. However, lightweight doesn't mean cheap and flimsy, and that's precisely how these feel in my hand and on my head - as if handling them with just barely too much force would cause them to crumble. Furthermore, they weren't comfortable to wear at all. I wasn't able to find any position where these just 'fit',

SOUND:
Flat, lifeless, unworthy of anything close to the price tag being commanded. Call quality was good, but it wasn't great. I don't use Microsoft Teams so I can't say whether or not thats where this headset's performance really shines or not. But my experience using these for either music listening or conducting business calls was very lackluster and unremarkable, easily outperformed by headsets that cost a mere fraction of what these command.

COMFORT:
Just wasn't there for me. Too light and far too flimsy to find a comfortable position on my head. The yokes are too flexible, the clamp force too minimal, and their overall design simply wasn't conducive to a good fit for me.

BOTTOM LINE:
Can't recommend these unfortunately. Look elsewhere in the Jabra product lineup for a truly stellar headset because I couldn't find it here.

Like a lot of folks these days, I'm working from home. I am on MS Teams calls throughout the day and have been looking for a wireless headset that has good sound quality, is comfortable enough, and long enough battery life to last. The Jabra Evolve2 65 meets most of those criteria, but falls short in a couple key areas.

PROS:
~ Connectivity - setup and connection to my phone and laptop were a breeze, and I love that they can handle incoming calls from both systems simultaneously. I've been on multiple Teams calls and putting one on hold to answer another is a really great feature. The MS Teams integration is really tight and very helpful.
~ Usability - the controls are intuitive and work really well. The boom mic mute function is great and really helpful on group calls where you don't want your team to know you're eating lunch while on the call.
~ Incoming Sound Quality - The sound on these is as good as most of the other headsets I've tried. Music is pretty rich with good bass and incoming sound/call quality is very good.

CONS:
~ Comfort - my main problem with these is long term comfort. I have to wear them for hours each day and I find that my ears start to hurt by early afternoon. They are an on-ear cup design. The material is soft and well-cushioned, so this may be my sensitivity vs. a product issue, but I can't wear them non-stop for the whole day like I need.
~ Outgoing Sound Quality - The main reason I wanted to try these was for the boom mic. I have an over-ear ANC headset, but the sound quality for the people I'm on a call with was horrible. I assumed the boom mic would solve that issue but am disappointed with the response I've gotten from my team about this. The sound quality is definitely better, but I still get feedback that my voice on calls is distant/echoing/tinny.
~ Battery life - On a full charge, the battery is usually low by the end of the day. The claim was 37 hours of active use on a single charge, and I haven't gotten close to that yet. It's not a huge issue from home as I can charge them each night, but could be an issue on the road (if I ever get to travel again).
~ Lack of ANC - These are not active noise cancelling headphones, though they do not claim to be either, just be aware of that when considering a purchase. My home office is relatively quiet, but I would like to have ANC for a coffee shop or noisy office setting.

Overall, these headphones are OK for my current work-from-home situation, but I will continue to look for the best solution - maybe Airpod Pros next...

This Jabra Evolve2 65 headphone is an amazing product. It's very well made in terms of material quality and the sound quality is really good too. The design is very well thought out. The materials is very refined. I also noticed that the manufacturer's packaging is all paper-based to be environmental friendly.

The ear cups are so dreamily soft and comfortable. Whatever they did, they did it right. The headband is adjustable on both sides. The whole product feels very premium and luxurious. The microphone boom is light and unobtrusive. When I lift up the microphone boom, it mutes me. Lowering it will unmute. It also has built in busy light that tells my family that I am in a call. Very slick! It has some type of smart noise cancellation for the mic where there are 3 microphones. Even when there are background noise around me, the caller on the other end cannot hear them.

The buttons are unobtrusive and I find them by touch. At first, it was hard to know which buttons did what, but I eventually learned them. There are labels next to the buttons, but they are not easy to see.

The headphone comes with a very nice premium case. Inside is also the USB adapter for connection to the computer for computer video conferencing or calls. Bluetooth will work too if the computer has it. I can also connect to my smartphone for regular phone calls.

There is NO charging stand in this setup. I think it can be purchased separately if needed.

The battery lasts for days of constant use because I work at home now. Unlike many other headphones, this one provides feedback by means of voice feedback. If I am pairing Bluetooth, it tells me that. I think it's very helpful to hear instructions instead of guessing what is happening.

This is truly a high tech headphone crammed with features. The only thing it lacks is active noise cancellation but I think I don't really need it for calls.

I love these! Admittedly, anything over the ear makes me nervous. I've found them to be headache inducing quite honestly. Having my ears pinned against my head for any length of time is uncomfortable.

So naturally, I was hesitant to give these a shot. I'm glad I did.

Jabra makes a quality product. That doesn't go unnoticed, especially in our new world of working from home. These measure up to any other speaker or headphone I have used for conferencing (whether work or school). They are supremely comforable and don't leave me wanting to lop my own head off after an hour on Zoom. The battery life is great. I can use these A LOT and only have to charge them once a week. I'm never worried about dropping a connection because the battery is drained.

The most important aspect of these for me is to be heard clearly by others. It's been mentioned to me that the device transmits crystal clear. No breaking. No choppiness. No fading. It's all there.

I had serious doubts, but these are a great solution for isolated audio in and out.

This isn't my first product from Jabra and it won't be my last but I was really disappointed in these. The headphone cushions are the size of oreo cookies and in no way cover my entire ear like headphones I've had from Jabra in the past. Because they don't cover the entire ear there's not really a point to the noise cancellation because you can still hear everything going on around you. In zoom calls and things like that they work fine but they're nothing special which is sad because I rant and rave about my jabra over the ear headphones that cost a grip but they have better quality than I've ever experienced in any other brand, these are just a little lack luster

These are overwhelmingly FINE.

The sound is fine. It's better than the headphones that come with your phone but they aren't great.

They work.

They don't sound amazing but they aren't BAD.

If you are looking for an even sounding middle of the road set of headphones these would be for you!

This shuts out household noises when conferencing online enabling me to hear what the speakers are saying without distraction, and also ensuring that they hear me clearly as well. Very comfortable. Adjustable. Fits fully over my ears.

I am working from home right now, while my kids are also home. Every so often I have to hop on a call for work, and these are so comfortable. The noise cancellation is great!

I really wanted to like this, but it had some issue. The first thing you would notice is, it's really lightweight and comfortable. Sound quality is excellent with deep base, however, that works against you when you are on calls. Deep base is not favorable when you are on calls. Also, the left earpiece had a rattle noise every time you wear and walk or something, it almost felt like something loose or broken inside. Microphone boom only works on the right side, it could be an issue if you are used to having mic on the left side.

Got this gave it a charge and plugged the dongle it into my laptop.

Ease of use: Immediately paired to a windows laptopand worked flawlessly. Microsoft teams recognized it very fast and have had zero issues.

Build quality: Looks well built, foam around ears is pretty thin but still comfortable for now.

Comfort: Very comfortable on my head, but my ears do get a bit hot using this headset. So far it's not too noticable.

Functionality: The fact you can put up the microphone to mute is a great convenience. In Microsoft teams if you have the microphone in the up position it mutes you in the meeting as well, if you try to unmute in teams it tells you to put the microphone down. Calls sound great, and this paired to my phone and switches between the dongle and my phone seamlessly. Having the busy light is also helpful to let people know you are on a call.

Overall: Love this thing, was super easy to setup and sounds great.

UPDATE: I now wish I had not updated the firmware. Im getting pretty frequent disconnects during active calls, and I can't isolate the issue. Sometimes it will recover/reconnect. Its happened on two different Macs I have now. I want to like this so bad, but I might have to return/exchange if this doesn't get better.

UPDATE: I was able to get in touch with Jabra customer support. The rep was very helpful and informative, but ultimately we still could not do any firmware update via the mac version of Jabra Direct. I ended up finding a Windows computer to borrow and was able to update it that way.

UPDATE: After using this for a few days I noticed the Jabra Direct software on my iMac tell me that the firmware for the Link 380 and the headset need to be updated. But the Jabra Firmware updater just keeps saying invalid firmware each time a step through the process to update. Can't find any articles about this issue.

Day one I am happy so far. I was a little bit worried based on some of the reviews. The sound quality is plenty good. I guess it might be good enough for some audiophiles, but I’ve don’t a couple WebEx calls, phone calls, and Spotify over my Mac and each were really clear and well balanced. And the connectivity is impressive. I was skeptical about having them connected to my Mac and my phone at the same time but it seems to transition really quickly. I didn’t experience any lag when I tried testing it a bit.

My only complaint so far is size. I do have a bigger melon, but I usually don’t have to extend a headset to its max size/length but these ones I do to fit comfortably. The head band is also a bit narrow in my opinion and the padding feels more like a single spot on the top of my which gives an odd feel. The ear muffs I think could stand to be a tad bigger as well.

But sidetone was a major consideration for me, and it’s great with the default settings.

Let's be honest here - these are kind of pricey. I would normally never think of plopping this much money down for something like these, but these are not normal times. I have worked from home for occasional periods and my cheaper headphones were fine, microphone quality was not great so you had to pay attention when talking. But working from home full time (at least for now), I decided to splurge. I spent a lot of time looking through brands, on ear / over the ear options, single speaker of dual, etc and landed on these.

The USB bluetooth adapter is great to give them much more range than laptop bluetooth receiver, allowing me to roam around a bit in the house and stay consistently connected. Admittedly the sound quality is not as good as my Bose QC2 which I still use if I am listening to music during the day, but sound quality of these is really good. I think the on ear is more than sufficient for mostly conference calls, and music is pretty good too. The microphone going to mute when you swing the boom is a great convenience feature. Microphone quality is great, which was my biggest issue with older headphones.

Covid sucks and we are all getting a little fatigued with it. If you have been lucky enough to work from home, decide as I did to splurge on yourself for some tech to make your day go better. These were worth the investment. Oh, and wear a mask!

I purchased this headset with high hopes of excellent sound quality in terms of microphone performance and ability to filter out background noise that's picked up by the microphone. The microphone does a poor job at filtering background noise, and while the microphone sound quality is good and better than using ear buds, it's worse than than using your phones own microphone. The fit is comfortable, and range is excellent when using the dongle. However, when using the dongle, the first 2-3 seconds of every video you start will have the sound muted, or when it determines there's no audio on video, it will mute it as well. This latency in sound will cause the wearer to miss key elements of introductions, and some videos are just plan unwatchable (esp. video tutorials than have long pauses) and this is the primary reason I needed to return them. Another annoyance is if you lean you head back, the headset will think the boom microphone is being muted, so it will either mute, or pause a video. With these limitations, if they were priced at $150 I think it would be acceptable. At $250, no.

Like many people I'm working from home and in calls for about 6h/day. I have other headset and even other Jabra products, I think the Evolve2 85 would be a great option but just don't think it's worth the price, and honestly the Evolve2 65 is also not worth the price for the quirks and features, for the price they should have included ANC, I'm pretty sure they could still do it with a simple firmware update since the hardware is there. The issues I have are related to sometimes the headset not working as it should (busy lights wont come on or mic controls via software don't work) Wired use is also hit and miss and just overall buggy.
My biggest issue is the audio quality, I use a few headsets, even cheaper than this one, that have much better soundstage and clarity, this is a huge disappointment for just listening to music, overall the sound is muffled and muddy, there's almost no separation and soundstage.
On the positive side, I think the new design looks way better than the previous gen and the battery life is pretty good.

My old Jabra Evolve 75's mic died after 4 years of use. At first glance this looks like an updated version, so I tried it. Unfortunately, other than looks, it does almost everything slightly worse while being more expensive. Here's the quick rundown:
- Ear pads are smaller, less area to disperse pressure, uncomfortable after 20min
- Microphone no longer magnetically clips to band in the up position
- Controls are small buttons on the rim of the ear cup instead of on the side/surface, harder to find
- On big heads like mine, the band comically pokes out
- Buttons and microphone feel flimsy
- Way too expensive for what it is, especially without any major upgrades over the 75
- No ANC (I know it's in the description, but it's listed last as I'm comparing the the 75)

This set is great in terms of battery life, range, sound quality, love the easy mute/unmute that also syncs with Zoom mute/unmute. The only problem is the 2 second ramp up before you hear the sound once you start playing video or audio. Especially annoying when I have to edit audio/video transcripts so I need to listen to the same chunk of audio over and over. The Beats wireless set doesn't have this problem, so it is not something that has to do with Bluetooth. But the beats doesn't have mute/unmute, which I really love on the Jabra set.

The headset is comfortable, the wireless 2 way audio frees me to walk around my department while on long calls/meetings even outside in the parking lot using Cisco Jabber on the PC, I can pause and skip tracks playing youtube in chrome. I love the side tone to hear what the person on the other end is hearing. BUT the headset control buttons and purple light dont seem to work with teams, I called support and they tell me the headset button dosent work with teams unless teams is configured to call external numbers. Seems this should have been disclosed in advertising?

I was excited for my first Jabra product in 20 years and top ratings from online sites promised it would be awesome with truly amazing features. Jabra dashed my hopes by stumbling on the fundamentals--I couldn't get the device to switch audio between an iPhone XR phone call and a 2-year old MacBook Pro Webex Session (a dealbreaker when works at home). Documentation and Help Library don't recognize it as an issue. I constantly received an annoying notification to update the firmware and an equally annoying error message stating I was trying update the wrong device (Picture uploaded). I gave up and sadly returned the headset. Perhaps the Evolve 3 will realize the Headset's potential. I'll be waiting!

I bought three different wired headsets and finally realized wireless was what I needed. It is great working from home with wireless. The buttons work great with Cisco jabber. The mic is easy to mute by lowering boom. I can answer and end calls without using mouse. I can mute / unmute without using mouse. Spend the extra and get wireless.

Also the red lights signal my spouse that I’m on active call.

This headset's sound times out. It times out even if you have sound streaming through it between calls. Nearly 75% of the calls I tried to pick up could not hear me, or vice versa. I had to unplug it, then plug it back in for the calls to hear me again. Very unprofessional, and not a very good headset to use for tech support.

... and another headset into the trash. I

Good product, not sure I like the on-ear experience, but that may be due to my head and the fact I'm in meetings all day long. Seems expensive for what it is. FYI, people told me my mic quality was pretty good, but could hear background noise easily.

They are decent. I expected more from these. Also the clamping force hurts the ears hard to wear all day long without taking them off. Other then that they are pretty good. No dropping of calls least for me.

Considering returning. Overall very nice, but comfort level is not where I like it to be for such an expensive product.

It’s a bit tight on my ears, and yet they still feel like they could slip off my head.

These are the best headphones out there. The Noise cancellation is 2nd to none. My voice is so clear. I would buy these headphones for again!

I’m newer to Jabra products but very impressed by this particular headset - it’s a great companion for our new remote working lifestyle, BUT the price definitely should cause you to consider it carefully vs alternatives.

Breaking the review down into parts, here are the key things to know:

1. Sound Quality / Usability - The 40mm drivers here sound great, with clear sound both in calls and for music/entertainment. Music is reproduced accurately across it’s entirely range. The boom microphone and multiple microphone layout ensures that you can be clearly heard during calls as well. The headset is also easy to use - easy to pair, with buttons that are logically laid out.

2. Build Quality / Comfort - Jabra typically produces well-built products for the office environment and this is no exception. They feel rather built like a tank and that they will last a long time, though time will tell on that. The ear pieces are nicely padded, as is the piece that rests on your head and overall they are comfortable for extended wear.

3. Extra Features - Unlike others in this price range, this headset doesn’t sell on a bunch of features. An included Bluetooth adapter is a nice touch, as is the Microsoft Teams button, quality feeling included case and the long battery life/quick recharge - but there’s no noise cancelling to be found here, and no ability to use wired connections as an alternative.

4. Value for Money - That brings me to value for money and this is what knocks what would otherwise be a 5 star review down. This headset seems to be mostly for office users and is priced accordingly - beyond what many home uses are interested in spending - or at a price point where other options offer more attractive features.

Overall, I really enjoy this headset and will be using it a lot as our current COVID situation continues. But the way too high price takes what would be a 5 start review and drops it to 4.

A little background - I used to use cheap bluetooth headsets and thought they were fine, until I was presenting on the phone to a large group and found out that my headset was the source of some strange feedback noises that everyone else was hearing. It was that experience that made me decide not to cheap out on headsets anymore. I purchased a Plantronics Voyager Focus UC headset at that time and started using it for my home office. I've been using that headset for a few years, and aside from a minor complaint about the build quality, I find it to be fantastic and well worth the money. The reason I mention all this is because the Plantronics Voyager Focus UC is another high end bluetooth headset like this one, so I figure it's a good one that I can compare this Jabra Evolve2 65 model to.

My plan is to use the Plantronics Voyager Focus UC at home, and to bring the Jabra Evolve2 65 to the office, so I'll have a high quality headset at both places. They're both portable, but probably not something I want to carry back and forth often.

Packaging / What's Included
---
So the Jabra Evolve2 headset... it comes packed in a relatively small box. Inside the box is a zippered carrying bag and a USB A to USB C charging cable, along with some paperwork. Instructions are printed to the actual box. Inside the zippered carrying case is the headset along with a USB bluetooth receiver to connect to a computer.

The one notable thing missing from this package that comes with other high end bluetooth headsets is a charging stand. No charging stand here. If you want to charge it, you have to plug it in to a USB C cord. A charging stand is not only practical, it also is a more elegant way to keep the headset at your desk. A lot of offices have flexible work spaces where people don't have dedicated spaces assigned so maybe that is a reason for not including a stand. It's not that big of a deal but would have been nice.

Comfort
---
The headset is cushy, and it feels expensive and luxurious. The ear cups on the Jabra feel amazing. I think the head band on the Plantronics headset is significantly more comfortable though, especially for wearing all day. On the Jabra, even with the head band fully extended, there's pressure on the top of my head. With the Plantronics headset it feels like you don't even have a headset on it's so comfortable. It may be a different experience for different shaped heads, but when comparing Jabra to Plantronics side by side, it's really a no contest on overall comfort - Plantronics wins by a mile. Feeling like you're not even wearing a headset vs feeling constant pressure on the top of your head.

One other thing about comfort, and this is really just a very minor thing, but worth sharing. I've always preferred to have the mic on the left side. The Jabra headset does not allow this. On some headsets the mic can be flipped around so you can wear it on either ear, but on this one it is fixed in a way that only allows it to work on the right side. It's not that big of a deal but worth mentioning.

Build Quality
---
This thing seems rock solid, built well, and definitely better build quality than my Plantronics (which came from the factory with a defective headband with plastic pieces popping out of it, but it still works fine)

Sound Quality
---
When it comes to listening to music, the Jabra headset sounds pretty incredible, and better than the Plantronics. When it comes to audio for a phone call, they're about equal. I have been on a few calls where the audio has been choppy, and I've hung up and called back in and then it's fine. I haven't really had that experience with my Plantronics headset so I'm not sure if it is a fluke. Generally though, most of the time, the Jabra has sounded great.

I've asked people how I sound and they say it sounds great as well.

Ease of Use
---
When my Jabra headset is turned on/paired and I answer a call on my iPhone, every time, my phone defaults to using the phone speaker. I have to manually switch it to the Jabra headset. I am not sure why. When I answer a call with the same phone on my Plantronics headset, the phone automatically uses the Plantronics headset when I answer and I don't have to manually pick it. That could be a phone setting thing but I am not sure.

Muting the headset is pretty easy. You just tip the microphone up vertically and it tells you it's muted. It's also got a mute button on the ear cup, as well as buttons for volume up and down, and Play.

I haven't been able to test out the Teams integration yet.

Conclusion
---
Using this headset has left me pretty impressed with the sound and build quality. The Plantronics Voyager Focus UC is no slouch in sound quality though, and is way more comfortable, so that will still continue to be my headset of choice for extended phone calls. It may just be my head though, so your mileage may vary. This one will be my "travel" headset and one I'll take with me places. This one is still quite nice though. I'd give it 4 stars if the headband were more comfortable for me, and 5 if it came with a charging stand/mic was reversible for use on either ear.

These headphones by Jabra are SO lightweight, when the box arrived I couldn’t believe there is a headset inside. The headset arrives in a cardboard box that has no plastic wrapping of any kind, it’s just a flip top cardboard box with Jabra headset images. Inside is a pouch with the zipper with headphones placed inside. This wasn’t much of unboxing experience but that might be the case because we, Vine reviewers, often receive products that are not yet ready to be fully launched or have different packaging.

The pouch is soft not a hard shell and you have to carefully place the headset inside and flip the ear cups the correct way to fit them in. I didn’t like having to dance around just to place them into a pouch.

Placing these on my head I could practically not feel them. I have a large head (it’s full of brains ,OK) and these don’t squeeze my brains out nor do they feel me uncomfortable. The earcups are small and not the kind that goes around and over your ear. These sit on top of your ear and inside of the earcups is flat. There is no opening inside where you place an ear like you could see on Bose models for example. There are tiny holes to let the sound out and I am really amused trying to figure out how can they provide noise canceling experience but they do. It may be my favorite part but I love the boom mic. It’s easy to get it out of the way by simply rotating and lining it up with the headband.
I was on the call with a group and a separate call with our CPA and attorney and experience was great. I heard everyone clearly and never once had to repeat myself. Ear cups are angled and really soft and provide much comfort. Sound is amazing for work but also for my music. All the controls are easily accesible on the earcup and no you don’t have to install an app! Just plug and go. 37 hours of battery life it took me a while to drain them. I really wanted to test if 15min charge can get you 8hrs of juice and close enough, 15min of charge lasted 7hr and 52min. This is when you don’t have time to fully charge them and fully charged battery will go for 37hours. I love everything about these other than a packaging and that storage pouch it came with. I will not deduct the star for box because I am not rating the packaging but the carrying case could be designed better.

I can't be sure at the moment but I think what I find most appealing about this headset is the satisfaction of knowing I will not have to use it. I picked it up for someone else who is working in the home and using headsets hours on end, but I'm the one on the hook for a review, so...

I will concede the set is lightweight, feels comfortable over extended time frames with a reasonably adjustable padded headband. The right earcup positioned microphone can be rotated upwards to mute calls. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be anyway to manipulate it so it isn't constantly jabbing you in the cheek when positioned for conversation. The on ear pads are soft faux leather but as such, without any sort of active noise cancellation capability and what I would consider mediocre clamping, the headset is overmatched in reduction of external sounds although from reports to me, the microphones are excellent in noise isolation so contacts cannot hear much of what is going on in my environment. Call reception quality for video conferencing software, the non-business version of Skype via Win10 laptops and telephone calls over an iPhone has been superior to any other headset I've used.

I've tried Bluetooth connectivity both with and without the 380 dongle and in all practicality, didn't detect any differences in call quality and to my frustration in both instances have experienced call interruptions where the connection has seemingly paused for a few seconds followed by a charge status advise and auto-reconnection. I haven't determined what precisely is going on with that but I can see how it could be a major issue for those depending on secure communications via this headset.

I did not evaluate actual battery life as compared to published representations of longevitity. Honestly, there is no point to discussion of audio quality. This set is geared for business communications and seem to be decent performers in that realm. Compared to any of the quality audio oriented headphones I own comparison of this SBC codec only supported set would only be a further waste of my time.
