This is an interesting wired speaker with impressive speakerphone capability, and it can be used to listen to music as a mini-soundbar.
I purchased this on a whim, seeing as how Microsoft does not release many new office products, and this one seemed particular pandemic-inspired. I used this for Google Meet on my Razer laptop and it works perfectly. No installation required, just plug and play. I've used this speaker for gaming and the sound quality is decent. It doesn't rival the sound of a full soundbar, but I prefer a more 'narrow' soundstage when gaming (hard to explain why, except that it's less distracting). Disappointingly, it does not appear to be compatible with my newer iPad Pro even though that device has a USB C port. But I think this speaker is a good value for the price, and its portability makes it useful for on-the-go work meetings.

Funny purchase, and it’s changed my work from home meetings. The “Teams” logo blinks when the meeting has started and it’s one touch to login. It simplifies the joining process (I know, it sounds funny) but when you are jumping from call to call all day, this is a time saver and helps streamline everything. The simple tactical buttons are great for quick volume and mute changes. You don’t think you need it…. Until you try it. It’s a keeper!

Wonderful speaker phone for MS Teams. Plug and play. No batteries to charge. Everyone says the mic sounds good on their end. For sure sounds good and clear on my end. Got this as an alternative to wearing my BT earpiece all day. Packs up easy for travel with laptop. Super easy setup. Working in minutes right out of the box. Turns any quiet place in to a conference room.

Needed a speaker/mic for working from home. The ones in my laptop weren’t cutting it. Saw this one at BestBuy and took a chance on it. It works perfectly! I use it for TEAMs calls mostly. I’ve never had a problem with it. It’s easy to unplug and carry with you in its protective case. I highly recommend it.

I am using this for my daily Teams meetings at work on my MacBook. Everything works great. The teams button lights up when I need to join a call. I have not heard anyone complain about my voice breaking up during the meetings. Speaker is loud and clear and no echos to report. Only thing I would wish for is to add some compression effects to modify and adjust microphone tone like I can with my Shure mv7 mic.

Best Speaker with Teams Integration. Got a Microphone Array which works very well. The mute and unmute option from teams gives a great experience.

Great little speaker and mic for working from home and listening to music when not in meetings!
A:Yes you can. I have been using it that way for months as a speaker and microphone, either as system devices or within conferencing apps such as Teams, Zoom and Skype.
A:The Microsoft website for this product states that the cord length is 680 mm which equates to 26.77 inches.
