Jabra Speak 510, Bluetooth Speakerphone, MS LYNC Version [7.5 W]

The media could not be loaded. If you are a corporate user working from home, on your office laptop, for the past year or less, and had enough of wearing your headset almost the whole day for your meetings and calls, then you would appreciate the Jabra speak 510 bluetooth speaker phone! I highly recommend this device. See accompanying short videoPros-1. Plug and play, no drivers required to be installed.2. Fantastic noise cancellation from environment, so the other party hears only your voice3. Omni directional mic which can pickup your voice till 2 metres from the device. So dont need to keep it close to you4. Works well with skype for business and microsoft meeting. Can take calls, disconnect calls, mute and unmute from the device and the device takes care of the skype and microsoft meeting software5. Tactile buttons around the device offer all function you will ever need. These are touch senstive buttons and not physical buttons. You can mute, unmute, volume + or -, switch off and on, take and disconnect calls, check battery charge on device and activate voice smart button etc6. Intuitive lights turn on whenever you click buttons. Red light stays on when call on mute. Useful feature. Checking battery charge also turns on white light to indicate level.7. With Bluetooth you connect to your smart phone too while simultaneosly connected to your laptop. So any calls from smart phone or skype on laptop can be seamlessly taken via the device8. Anti slip surface at the bottom ensure better grup on the table9. Long usb cable provided ensure you can place device at a convenient place10. Voice and sound quality is stellar! Can even play music although dont expect lot of bass11. Its sheer compact size is absolutely impressive12. Though it comes with a manual, you dont need to read it since the device is very intuitive and easy to use13. The voice quality on the other side is so good, that the other party find it difficult to believe that you are on speaker phone14. Can pair and remember around 10+ devices. You try pairing more it will delete the oldest paired device to accommodate new one15. 2 year warranty from jabra16. It has an inbuilt battery which can run for few hours without connected to laptop, so quite mobile and can be carried along17. Does not require additional.power source- picks power from laptop via usb cable or through inbuilt batteryCons-1. Does not integrate well with Zoom. Though you can hear and speak through it on zoom, device cannot mute or unmute. Need to do this on zoom software.2. Skype call and smart phone call wont work together. If you are already on a skype call on your laptop, and if you receive a call on your smart phone connected to the device via bluetooth, the call wont go through to the device. So only one active call at one time3. Doesnt come with any case, for the price it comes for4. Its on the expensive side for 15kAdditional info-1. Model comes in another variety called speak 510+. The plus model has an additional blue tooth dongle, in case you care.2. Different models available speak 410, 510, 710 and 810. 810 costs a bomb and 410 costs almost the same as 510. 710 can accommodate more people sitting around the device for conference calls and is also expensive. So 510 is a natural choice for single user!Jabra been an professional manufacturer of corporate communication device is the best choice for.your work from home needs, if you can afford it and if are fedup of wearing headphone the whole day! I expect work from home to continue in 2021 with a partial work from home in 2022! So lets be prepared!Hope this review was helpful? Please let me know...

Had a ear surgery and was told not to use headphones for some time. The laptop speaker and mic were pathetic for Skype conference calls. That's when I bought this neat little device. Excellent clarity and people on the other side do not hear any noise at all even though I am on speakerphone. The noise-cancellation works pretty much as advertised. Completely satisfied with this product and recommend it highly to anyone who doesn't want to wear headphones all the time.

- It connectivity is good whether Bluetooth or USB- sound quality good- Microphone good

Good

Amazing product - works like a dream. Conference quality system
