Jabra Speak 510+ UC 10 Watt Wireless Bluetooth Speaker (Black)

This will be a mixed review.* First the seller took his own sweet time to ship. There was no communication on ETA etc. I raised a complaint to Amazon in the middle, but they weren't very helpful. Then there was a sudden shipment notification and it arrived on time! Packaging was good (I had to wait nearly 10 days from order time before it got shipped)* Product has a very premium feel. The LEDs are awesome and the buttons are extremely responsive. Big thumbs up* It is recommended to install Jabra connect - it updates the firmware and recognizes the device well* Battery lasts long for a single charge. Gives about 15 hrs talk time.* Pairing with mobile and computer simultaneously works well. It recognizes two devices are paired and behaves accordingly.* Voice pickup on mobile is awesome. In calls, the other party never realized I was speaking 6-7 feet away on a hands free mode.* Very useful in a multi party scenario for mobile calls. Me and my wife video called someone and we were able to do it without huddling too close and comfortably speak without headsets. The hands free video calling experience was good.* My biggest disappointment was with zoom calls. I am having mixed results with zoom. Zoom does its own voice changes (like echo canceling, background noise suppression etc). It ends up eating some of my voice as well. There is a setting in zoom to disable all this and just pass through the voice directly from the speaker. In that case it picks up background noise too much because of the powerful omnidirectional mike on the device.* There is also a difference in connecting the device to laptop via BT and via USB. USB gives some extra features - like syncing the buttons with zoom. Audio quality is a bit better with zoom.Overall:* Zoom experience is a bit of a let down* I wish there was a way to use it with USB without charging the device* Ridiculously overpriced for the functionality (despite all the good things)My recommendation: If the money is not a big deal for you, you probably won't regret the purchase. Also check your use case. To use it primarily with laptops, the 410 might be a better buy. Using this with mobile gives a lot of bang for the buck. Otherwise, its a mixed feeling.

The speakers are greatConnectivity options are greatWe buy the product to ensure we get this useful for our conferences/meetings.So, what is the point when it comes with miserable microphone or couple of mic`sI kept the device right under my nose, and there were interrupts in micA simple 100rupee wired earphone does a better jobRaised requests for replacementHopefully that will turn out better
