Best headset I've ever used, owned. Bein.g able 2 use both ear muffs is great

As always, I am looking for good headsets for both gaming needs and home office. With the Blue Parrot S650 XT, I have a very comfortable and sleek design that is also very precise with sounds and vocal. What makes this model very unique is the ability to convert from stereo to mono sound with the removal of one of the headsets, while still giving you excellent heads-free and exceptional sound quality. This was true in real-world usage for my daily morning Zoom Meetings where at times I would use both stereo and then switch to mono, and still be able to have clear and precise sounds from my colleagues. The microphone does not bend close to my mouth, but my team was able to hear me clearly and without distortion. When in ANC mode, it did sound like there was static in my ears but those on the call said they didn’t hear anything of that sort. I was impressed with the Active Noise Cancellation feature of this headset. Although for me it rests comfortably on my ears (and not over), I was afraid there would be still some sound leakage from ym surroundings. To my pleasant surprise, the ANC worked amazingly well. The company states that it blocks out 96% of the background noise and I do believe they are correct with that. I can easily switch to ANC, to transparency or “hear through” and back to offin any situation that I feel warrants. Since this is wireless, Blue Parrot states it can go 36 hours and up to 300 ft on a single charge. Out of the box I did need to charge it to full, but I did get a full 30-ish hours of various uses and was able to walk from my home office, to my kitchen (downstairs and about 100 feet of walking) with no interruptions. The Blue Parrot button on the side of the headset allowed you to personalize your favorite features, which for me to call my favorites on my call list or mute. The voice activated feature is a hit-or-miss. It begins with “hello Blue Parrot” And a list of features are available. Overall, they feel comfortable but as they are not over the ear, they can start to have discomfort since I wear glasses. But these are really great for the multi-usages and able to switch from my iPad or my Laptop especially with the ANC feature.

I was excited to receive Jabra's Blue Parrot S650-XT 2-in-1 headphones as I take a lot of road trips and needed something easier to use than my in-car speaker system that everyone in the car can listen in to. These Blue Parrot phones let me do just that. With very good sound deadening, the ability to use either one or both headphone cups, built in microphone with windscreen cover, a very long 36 hour battery that recharges in 3 hours and has up to 600 hours of standby battery life makes this S650-XT a standout set of headphones. The Jabra Blue Parrot device can be used to play your favorite music as well as make phone calls effortlessly. I found the music sound to be somewhat muffled but is does work well. Controls on the headphone are easy to use with very little confusion to mute, make calls, adjust volume and voice activated command capability. The unit is quite versatile! The headset seems well designed. I like its on-the-ear cup design as I find most over-the-ear headphones become uncomfortable after using for a little while causing my ears to heat up. The unit comes with a USB-C cord to recharge the headphone and a small user manual to get you set up and going. I plan on taking the Jabra headset on my 10 hour roadtrip next week and may have more to add when I return.
