About this deal

Most of my clients also call my cellphone, rather than my desk phone and as we continue remote work we may move the company to call service through the Microsoft Teams solution. Right now, I pair my Surface Pro 6 with Jabra Direct and my primary cellphone with Sound Plus to the Evolve2 85. Whether calls come through Teams or my cellphone, one headset is there and ready to help me respond. Combining all of this Microsoft Teams integration with an easy to control boom arm, long battery life, and comfortable ear cups means this is the headset for me and everyone else using Microsoft Teams to get work done. Computer (PC/Mac) software Last year I took a look at the Jabra Elite 85h headphones, which were designed to challenge Bose and Sony in 2019. That headset was focused on the music experience with better voice support than the competition. The new Evolve2 85 headphones build upon the Elite 85h with more microphones, swing-down boom mic stand, and features optimized for the enterprise. Surely, the Jabra Evolve2 85 justifies the extra cost, as the Evolve2 85 has two more microphones than the Jabra Evolve2 75, at eight total. The Jabra Sound Plus app is available for iOS and Android devices. The smartphone app has many similar settings as the Jabra Direct app with a few other options, including using the earcup microphone for calls rather than the boom arm mic.

As Jabra continues to make advancements in their technology, we may see even more updates to these products. In the following six to 18 months, we may see the following: Both headsets are equipped with active noise cancellation features, although the Jabra Evolve2 85 has more microphones than its counterpart. There are four analog MEMS and six digital MEMS on the Jabra Evolve2 85, while the Jabra Evolve2 75 is equipped with four analog MEMS and four digital MEMS. The active noise cancellation features are built on all four of these microphones.It's small, thin and feels really fragile. It gives the impression as if it already breaks down from just looking at it. I would prefer a better microphone which is longer and can be adjusted to my needs even if it doesn't win a design award. (e.g. Gaming Headsets like Beyerdynamic MMX300, Steelseries Arctis Pro Wireless, Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE, etc.)

They've built this headset with powerful leak-tolerant 40mm speakers. Factor in advanced digital chipset and the latest AAC codec, and your music will be sounding better than ever. Good things come to those who wait. This is the audio experience you've been waiting for.De Evolve2 modellen met Microsoft Teams-certificering ondersteunen Microsoft Teams als een plug-and-play-ervaring. De plug-and-play-ervaring biedt de volgende voordelen: Jabra promises battery totals up to a whopping 37 hours of use—easily 10 more hours of music listening than competitors in the space. At first, it's a really great idea to have a microphone arm on this headset which can be folded or hidden while just listening to music or watching a movie. Great idea to combine business and private use-cases. But then this construction ... that can't be your answer Jabra! While you can use the left ear cup button to toggle between sound modes, you can also do this in the Moments section of the smartphone app. Battery percentage is also shown in the smartphone app. Daily usage experiences and conclusion The comparison for headsets in this space is tough. Many of the office-designated headsets have smaller drivers and aren’t particularly good at music, while larger headsets with boom microphones tend to be flashy and more gaming oriented.

The software side of the equation is also pretty well thought out. I’ve used the Sound+ app for other Jabra headphones—particularly the Elite true wireless earbud series. Most of the same features are found here, like a powerful five-band graphic EQ, some thoughtful presets, and even a way to customize these settings for different parts of your day.It seems like Jabra has taken a subtler approach with the ANC on these headphones, and that makes it more capable and less uncomfortable for sensitive ears than something like Apple’s AirPods Max. To be fair, you won’t be amazed by the amount of noise cancellation, and I do think that Jabra’s “commute” vs. “office” vs. other customizable modes in the app is overselling the capabilities a bit. But in general, this worked well for me as an all-day work headset. At first glance, you might think that Jabra has pushed the price tag far too high for these headphones. And it’s true that if you compare them to flagship over-ear headphones from Sony or Bose, they are far more expensive. It’s impressive just how much battery life Jabra has managed to get in these otherwise pretty sleek headphones. It’s odd when you think about it, because while these headphones seem oriented to your desk where a charging cable is within reach, you’ll rarely need that charging cable. But, because the headphones need to be ready to use at a moment’s notice for phone calls, it does make sense.
