Fast connection.
I did my usual bluetooth test where I leave a message on my voicemail while exposing the mic to a variety of noise conditions.
1. Driving 40mph while listening to radio at 25% volume. My voice came through clear and very strong. Occassionally I heard a little blurp of sound from the background, but that sound was unintelligible.
2. Driving 40mph while listening to radio at 50% volume. Voice again was clear and strong. Could hear only a few blurps of sound dropping in and out.
3. Driving 40mph while listening to radio at 75% volume. This is the highest I can bare for a short period of time without permanently damaging my ears. My voice came through clear and very strong. While there was noise in the background, it was nowhere near sounding as loud as it did in real life. Ultimately, you could conduct a conversation in this extreme environment, but your caller would have no problems understanding what you're saying.
4. Making sudden sounds, like pulling the straw in and out of a big gulp cup, jungling keys, etc. These sounds were either non-existent, or i hardly noticed them.
5 of 5 stars for noise cancelling.
This is more comfortable than any of the previous headsets by Blueparrott. The earcup is soft, but it is on-ear still. I would've liked for them to make a mono headset with a larger earcup. Still comfy and able to wear for longer periods.
Build is very strong. Better than that one aluminum strip across your head, this looks and feels like a real professional headset. This is the ultimate, best Bluetooth that BlueParrott has released to-date; in my mind, at least.
