After extensive research and watching YouTubers do sound tests, I decided on this headset, and I'm glad I did. The active noise canceling on the microphone is outstanding—I've had music blasting and even vacuumed in the background, and no one could hear a thing. I bought this headset specifically for my work-from-home job, and being able to listen to music from my stereo while working has made my days much more enjoyable.So far, in Teams meetings, the mic has performed flawlessly, and I’ll update my review once I’ve used it for client calls. I also appreciate the dual functionality of Bluetooth and USB connectivity, which is a must for companies that require wired headsets. The automatic mute feature when the dongle is flipped up is incredibly convenient, and it works seamlessly on Teams.My only issue is that the headset tends to fall off easily when I look down. I’m used to wearing a different brand that stays securely in place, so this has been a bit frustrating. I may try adding a headset headband cover to help hold it in place. Overall, it’s a great purchase for noise cancellation and work productivity with just a minor adjustment needed for fit.As for the noise canceling on the speakers, I can tell it works because I notice a clear difference when I put them on versus when I take them off. That said, when I wore them to the gym, I could still hear the music blasting outside the headphones much more than with my high-end Sony ones. Also, while the music quality isn’t as powerful as a high-end Sony headset, that’s not what I use these for. The strength of this Jabra headset lies in ensuring the person on the other end of the call doesn’t hear any background noise, which makes it perfect for my work-from-home needs.
