Jabra Evolve2 40 PC Headset – Noise Cancelling Microsoft Teams Certified Stereo Headphones With 3-Microphone Call Technology – USB-A Cable – Black

Product Information

Those using the Jabra Direct software can make adjustments to increase or decrease the output across bass, the mid-range and treble as required. Everything about the new design is smoother and more elegant, with a shorter retractable microphone boom and a discrete charging base. You can adjust the control layout to a degree in the app by switching between various modes (Music and Media, Incoming Calls, or Active Calls). Within these subsets, you can reassign gestures to different functions. In testing, we found the controls easy to operate and never felt like we needed to shove the earpiece further into the ear canal to get them to work. One minor annoyance: There’s no way to add an off option to the ANC/transparency cycle, which means you have to use the app to listen without either. They’re also a significant improvement over the original Evolve 75 design, not that those are bad in any significant way.

The left side has pins that interface to the charging base, the power button that doubles for Bluetooth pairing, the USB-C charging port and a button that controls the noise-cancelling function. While it is possible to charge these using only a USB cable, we recommend investing in the charger, as it has a dramatically better design than the original Evolve. Instead of the large and awkward frame that the headset hung on, the new charger is small, discreet and the way the headphones land on it is elegant. A sufficiently simple layout that most people should embrace after receiving a relatively short walkthrough on how to operate them. What especially impressed us was how easily these can be placed on the charger, reducing the possibilities of those awkward moments when you arrive for work and then realise that the headset isn’t charged. Once you're past the setup process, the app shows an image of the product with battery life readouts for each earpiece and the case. Below this, you can select between ANC, HearThrough (transparency), or off modes. If you select either the ANC or HearThrough options, a fader appears that lets you control their respective intensity.

They’re comfortable for extended wear, easy to drop on the charger, and they work elegantly with Teams (or UC) depending on your preferences. Overall, these sounded much better than we’d anticipated, and we can see no good reason why these couldn’t be used for other purposes than conference calls when the need arises.

Jabra chose not to do that here, and the Evolve2 75 is significantly different from the original Evolve 75 it replaces in both form and function. Typically, when headphone maker produces a second version of a successful design, they often retain much of the original structure and technology, primarily to reduce costs. 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:Unexpectedly, these are fine for other purposes. Audiophiles might hear some of the compromises made to achieve their sound profile and the impact of noise-cancelling technology. But they’re not as evident as we’ve experienced on other business headphones, especially regarding the higher frequencies. There is bass, not excessive amounts, but it offers some. But being realistic, Jabra made the Evolve2 75 series with exactly this price point in mind, and they’re constructed and specified accordingly. And, therefore a cheaper version of this design probably wouldn’t perform as well or last as long in frontline use. It’s an additional cost on what aren’t cheap headphones, but having this item made encountering an uncharged device less likely.
