Stereo MS USB-C
Serious kit for serious…

I spend countless hours on video calls at work. As I now work mainly from home I am also constantly being interrupted - by the doorbell, my child or wife shouting about something or one of the pets being obnoxious. With the Jabra Engage 55 I have found that my home-working life has become a little simpler.
Firstly and a huge benefit is the 150m range this headset has. I am able to leave my workspace and attend any situation whilst still being on the call. Doors can now be answered and other home interruptions can all now be attended whilst still listening in to calls, all due to the incredible range this headset has.
The noise cancelling offered with this headset is quite honestly second to none. On any given call chaos can be going on within my surroundings and no one on the call will be able to hear anything other than my voice. A very impressive and important feature.
Setting up the headset was a breeze, simply plug in the dongle, switch on the headset pressing and holding the power button until it bleeps to confirm it is in pairing mode and you should be connected.
The headset itself is incredible light and does not press too hard on the ears ensuring that even the longest calls remain free of discomfort.
The battery life is also very impressive. I attended 6 hours of back-to-back conferences and it handled it with no issue.
I did experience one slight issue which may have been me expecting too much from the headset, but I found they will not function through thick concrete floors / ceilings - like those typically found in an office. I had popped down a floor in my office to get a coffee and the headset disconnected, despite being well within the range. So do keep that in mind.
Equally frustration is charging, being micro usb on the earpiece in 2022 means having a dedicated micro usb cable to hand. The headset apparently does have a dedicated charging dock, but I cannot find where to buy one separately.
Otherwise and incredibly good piece of kit.
