Jabra Evolve2 85 Wireless PC Headset with Active Noise Cancelling – UC Certified Stereo Headphones for Office & Remote Work – 37-Hour Battery Life – USB-A & Bluetooth Adapter – Black – Perfect for Video Calls, Online Meetings & Focus Work

I bought these headphones at the start of June and have been using them every weekday since then. I was nervous in buying them having read the reviews - a noticeable minority of the views were negative. Having used them since June I have given them a 5 star rating - basically they met all the objectives I had for them.Context:I have been working from home since Covid hit. I spend a lot of time running meetings. The headphones supplied by my employer were on-ear wired logitech headphones. For meetings I am either connected in via computer audio (Cisco Webex teams) or by my mobile phone.Objectives - the problems I was looking to solve:1. Looking for one set of headphones that could do both computer audio and mobile phone. Up to this I had one set of headphones connected into my computer (logitech) and a Bose QC25 headset connected to my mobile phone.2. Headphones that I could comfortably wear for a long period. The on-ear headset was painful to wear after an extended period.3. Freedom of movement - my current set was wired and the wire had become tangled making it even more restrictive. I had invested in a standup desk and wanted something that I could move around with while on a call.4. I wanted a wireless headset that could also operate wired in case the battery was low but I still needed to be able to run meetings.Results:The headset met all my objectives with some added bonuses.1. I have the usb (Usb-A) connector into my laptop (Surface Pro Windows 10). Really easy to set up and get connected even with the fact that I don't have administrator rights. The headset is connected via bluetooth to my mobile phone (iPhone 7). With the computer connection my headset works well with cisco webex teams _ i am able to answer a call by pressing the center button on the headset.2. Headphones are very comfortably even after long periods of wearing.3. I have been able to move away from my desk while on calls with the headset. I have even headed outside to collect a delivery while on a call. Great connection.4. Battery lasts a long time. On the occasion i forgot to charge it i was able to plug in the charging cable and use it. Really useful.Bonuses:1. The ability to mute by moving the microphone boom arm is really useful - especially when you are away from the desk / computer.2. It connects automatically to my mobile and computer when i turn the headset on. The voice lets you know how many devices are connected.Points to note:I did not install the software on to my work laptop - instead I installed it on my personal laptop. I use my personal laptop to install updates. I have used the headset with my personal mobile as well (Samsung Galaxy note 8) with no issues. So it has worked well with Android and IOS devices.I did not reference noise cancelling or sound quality. These are good but not great - not a match for the Bose QC for example. Noise cancelling at present is not an issue for me as I currently work in a quiet environment. When I go back to the office they will get a greater test in this area.All in all I would recommend this. Hope this review helps people decide what to do.
