Who wins on what

Ranked by what users actually praise

Overall Impression

Call and mic quality in noise is a major weak point for many users. Multiple commenters report that callers on the other end complain they can hear background noise or can't understand the user at all, in settings like coffee shops, driving, call centers, and trains. One user called the wind noise handling a joke, saying it amplified wind for the other caller. Another found the mic worse than a Samsung phone's built-in mic when music played nearby, questioning whether the AI noise processing malfunctions under noise.

Battery life and connectivity reliability are inconsistent across users. One user reported the earbuds can't last a 2-hour meeting and after a year hold charge for only one to two hours, with each earbud draining unevenly. Another needed to re-pair to Teams nearly every use, calling it the worst headset they've owned. Amazon reviews were also cited as flagging connectivity and quality problems, suggesting these issues aren't isolated incidents.

Satisfied long-term users highlight comfort, the charging case, and seamless work integration. One user praised three months of seamless Teams use with easy, reliable connectivity and no complaints. Another called them the most comfortable headset for over eight hours of daily phone calls. The touchscreen charging case was specifically praised as a rare example of a genuinely functional charging case, and one gamer without professional use found sound quality great for music and gaming.
