Jabra Evolve2 85 Wireless PC Headset – Noise Cancelling UC Certified Stereo Headphones With Long-Lasting Battery – USB-C Bluetooth Adapter – Black

Product Information

Jabra has tested devices with a long list of platforms, and offers Microsoft Teams certified variants from our wide range of headsets and speakerphones. Its dual connection enables easy adjustments whenever you wish, connect it directly to any mobile device or to your PC or MAC using a USB adapter. Unfortunately, they have high wireless latency and a fairly bulky design, which makes them a little bit of a nuisance to carry around. Their microphone also swivels into a groove on the right ear cup, which reduces the chances of having it snag on something if you toss them into your bag. This large, over-ear design is much, much more preferable to me and offers excellent passive (and active, but we’ll get to that) sound isolation plus a comfortable, lightweight and low-pressure fit that I can wear for long durations.

The headset comes with a Bluetooth adapter to use with your computer which will provide greater functionality than is available by connecting the headset directly to your computer’s Bluetooth settings. I also had some issues with unexplained audio cut-outs, but most of the time the connectivity worked well.The Sony block out more ambient noise, feel better-built, and offer a more consistent listening experience as well as a broader range of configuration options in their companion app. The revolutionary technology included in the headset provides hybrid and digital active noise cancellation that, together with their design, will provide you with exceptional sound isolation. The Jabra Evolve2 85 are premium professional headphones that are versatile enough for a wide range of uses. Jabra Direct makes sure that your headset always has the latest firmware, guaranteeing you’ll have the most up-to-date features, bug fixes and easy access to compatibility updates.

Then, we added soft memory foam ear cushions to make it supremely comfortable; so comfortable, you’ll forget it’s even there. By contrast truly outdoorsy bluetooth headphones that aren’t designed around desktop, office use tend to lack a good charging solution and are almost without exception a huge nuisance to keep charged.

If your UC platform of choice is Microsoft Teams, the Teams-certified variant is perfectly adapted and optimised to give you the best experience with the platform. The Jabra Evolve2 85 has Bluetooth multipoint capabilities, meaning it can be simultaneously connected to your smartphone and your laptop. This feature might be useful to some, but I feel it’s probably best used as a way to prolong the life of the headset once the battery is well and truly dead. The integrated BLF can be seen from any angle, giving you a visual do-not-disturb sign and helping you stay focused. When you finally find a headset that you just can‘t do without, it‘s good to know you don‘t have to.

Still this is decidedly easier than locating the USB cable down the back of your desk, plugging it in, and leaving the headphones hanging over the edge of your desk or just plonked somewhere untidily. The Jabra Evolve2 85 Wireless are better on-ear headphones for most uses than the Beats Solo3 2019 Wireless.If someone comes across a Jabra Evolve2 85 that's differently configured from the above table of options, let us know in the discussions so we can update our review. Another variant is available with a USB-C dongle that plugs into USB-C ports, but its performance wasn't evaluated. Product Description Jabra Evolve2 85 MS Stereo - headset Product Type Headset - Bluetooth - wireless, wired - 3. Factor in advanced digital chipset and the latest AAC codec, and your music will be sounding better than ever.

A Microsoft Teams-certified variant is available, which has a multi-function button that provides more functionality with that app, but we didn't test it. The new and improved busylight is more visible than ever, allowing you to be seen from very angle, for even fewer interruptions. The Bose QuietComfort 35 II/QC35 II Wireless 2018 and the Jabra Evolve2 85 Wireless have different strengths and weaknesses.If you're the type who likes to fine-tune your listening experience, the Jabra Sound+ app features a five-band graphic EQ. Using biometric measurements of hundreds of heads, we've created the perfect ergonomic design, featuring a unique headband shape that optimizes weight distribution for every head shape. The Jabra headphones' boom microphone provides superior recording quality and noise-handling capability. It also has convenient onboard buttons for controlling volume, cycling through listening modes, and skipping tracks. Another minor frustration I discovered between my Linux laptop and iPhone was the tendency for *something* on Linux (I haven’t identified what, but I’m looking at you Pulseaudio) to grab the audio output device and relentlessly monopolize it, to the point where I can move upstairs with the headphones and not get any audio out of my phone at all.
