Poly Blackwire 5220, C5220 USB-A - Schnurgebundenes Stereo-Headset mit USB-A und 3,5 MM

I was a bit unsure before the purchase because I have generally been disappointed by various other headsets, but this one was definitely above my expectations. My main use is for Skype teleconference sessions. The sound quality is excellent and the mic does pick my voice up extremely well according to my business counterparts. This is also an excellent headset for language learning, because of the crispness in sound. Obviously, it is not for music listening and neither it should be. Also, with Windows 10, the device setup completed in about 5 seconds, which was very impressive. It is also very comfortable to wear. I did start to feel some mild pressure after over two hours of continuous use, but shifting it a bit made things better and I felt no discomfort afterwards. This is a big difference from headsets that hurt after a few minutes of use. The only thing that was a bit unexpected was that the seller shipped this unit without a tracking number. Something for them to consider in the future maybe?

I used to use my standard TaoTronics over-ear headphones for Zoom and Teams calls and people used to comment that I wasn't loud enough or it was otherwise difficult to hear me. Since buying these I've had no issues with people being able to hear me at all. Also, the design of the on-ear headphones means my ears don't get as hot or sweaty when wearing them for prolonged periods of time and the headphones are less tightly sprung so they don't pinch my ears even when I'm wearing glasses. Despite this I have no issues with ambient noises it's not soundproof but it's not distracting at all. Works fine on both Windows and Mac USB controls are optimised for Teams but volume up and down works fine on Mac and zoom, teams and Google meets. I've had no issues at all Overall a very good product at a competitive price.

I've had it for a couple of weeks now and I quite like it. Comfortable and good sound quality, good value for money overall.

Used mainly for work meetings. Very comfortable on a big fat head for hours at a time - yer yurs gets a bit warm though. Excellent sound quality both ways. The padded ear piece means one can't hear one's own voice when one speaks so it's a bit like having a head cold. I imagine they're all like that and anyway that makes it really effective at cutting out any noise in one's own environment so it's like being in a quiet room with one's colleagues. I think music sounds fantastic. I'm not a hifi buff and my hearing is that of a stereotypical 60 year old. Even so, the sound is crisp, warm and well balanced.

Well detected on Mac, but half working IF using the USB port only! Poorly works on Mac IF using the USB port. Despite mic volume adjusted to the max, my contact could not hear me properly. Yet again an overrated product (at least for Mac users). Such an expensive product for that kind of result. However, everything works perfectly through the JACK. So, if you like/need the control gadget (USB), forget it if on Mac.

These are great, I have tested the microphone and looked at the output waveform, and used them for both Zoom/Discord etc... as well as for Music. If you fold away the microphone and use them as "HiFi" headphones, these are better than some dedicated headphones I have owned.... they are comfortable, and have just the right weight to them... (come with a nice case too). If someone had driver issues with a standard USB audio device (as some have commented), I suggest that they look at their software not this Plantronics/Poly. You shouldn't need a driver to use this, perhaps for the buttons, but was immediately recognised when plugged into my Ubuntu system, shows up as follows:- ID 047f:c053 Plantronics, Inc. Plantronics Blackwire 5220 Series Looking at the USB device it appears as a stereo audio output, a mono microphone, a mixer controller, and another device labeled "feature unit", which I assume refers to the mute/pickup button.... without any special software, the volume buttons control the default audio device, and the mute button interacts with the mute button for the device in the software mixer... but I don't have any way to test the "phone" button. Some people have reported that the microphone is quiet, but I compared it to another Plantronics (blackwire 315.1) headset, and it is identical... clearly set up not to clip even if you speak loudly, but not excessively quiet IMO, I was able to get near to 0db output by speaking loudly. If I was to be really picky, I'd say that the padding is not entirely silent, and crinkles a little as you move the headset on your head, but I think this will settle down as they are used.... definitely a good buy IMO.

My company uses these headsets for Skype calls. The microphone is crystal clear and eliminates background noise. The headstrap is adjustable and comfortable. The build quality is very good and last us a long time, despite daily use.

Ich habe in meiner Home Office Zeit einige Headsets probiert, u. a. auch Sennheiser. Für mich sind die Plantronics C5220 mit Abstand am Besten. Positiv: - Verarbeitung und Design sind sehr gut - Tragekomfort ist extrem gut (auch bei mehreren Stunden tragen) - Audioqualität in Gesprächen ist klar und deutlich - Mikrofon ist klar und klappbar - per USB ist die Audioqualität nochmals besser - Tasche ist im Lieferumfang - Preis ist fair (~75 Euro) Neutral: - Zum Musik hören eher nicht geeignet (aber dafür ist es ja auch nicht gemacht) Für mich ist das mit Abstand das beste Headset, Tragekomfort ist wahnsinnig gut und Audioqualität in jeder Hinsicht auch super.

I really recommend this headset for online meetings. Sound quality of the microphone is the best I have ever used. The headphone provides good sound but it has a little sound leakage. Please make sure that volume level inside the office. Headset is cool with red cable and super light weight. Everything meets my expectations.

Primeiramente achei que tinha vindo errado, porque veio com a marca Poly. Depois o vendedor me explicou e entendi que se tratava da mesma empresa e qualidade. O fone é muito profissional e realmente o microfone é incrível e corta todo o ruído externo. Perfeito para reuniões, principalmente se vc esta em ambiente com ruído no background. Conecta ao Microsoft rapidamente, dando total eficiência e qualidade de áudio e sim. Leve. Fico muitas horas com ele na cabeça e só chega a incomodar um pouco na orelha depois de 10 já de uso direto. Recomendo.

Je ne sais pas si c'est voulu, mais le casque coupe un peu le son ambien. Sinon très bon son, qualité du micro est excellente (à ce qu'on m'a dit) et confort agréable.
