My original standard was a Plantronics headset of similar design. The Plantronics unit had a case with a battery that would recharge the headset when it was in the case. Some downsides were it either had to go in the case to charge or use a proprietary magnetic charging piece.This unit charges off of USB-C, quickly. Lasts 4+ hours of talking and days/weeks on standby. Range is great, noise canceling much better than I'd expect and pairs easily most of the time.In fact, the onky time I had issues with it pairing the manufacturer sent me a free replacement, which is still in the box, because I managed to get this one working again. That was 2 years ago. This is usually hanging on my necklace for easy access, it's been dropped in water and still works 3 years later with constant use. When I was a field tech I'd use it all day, worked well with my laptop and phone.Does well for MSTeams, Zoom, Soft Phone apps, etc. on mobile and computer.Onky issue I have now is I lost the earpiece rubber somewhere and need to find the case to see if I still have a spare or order the rubber piece.I'd buy the whole unit again if I needed it. Even gave one of my spares (teh replacement) to a friend that needed it quickly, so he bought a replacement. That's still in the box.
