It’s an additional cost on what aren’t cheap headphones, but having this item made encountering an uncharged device less likely.įor those using these on a Windows PC or Apple Mac, Jabra provides Jabra Direct, a tool to manage the headphones and apply firmware enhancements when required. Instead of the large and awkward frame that the headset hung on, the new charger is small, discreet and the way the headphones land on it is elegant. While it is possible to charge these using only a USB cable, we recommend investing in the charger, as it has a dramatically better design than the original Evolve. That said, unless the shifts being worked are entirely illegal, this isn’t an issue that most wearers are likely ever to encounter. The only downside to ANC is that it reduces battery life, reducing talk time from 24 hours to just 18 hours. Image Credit: Future (Image credit: Mark Pickkavance)

However, in a pinch, just 15 minutes on the charger can deliver 6 hours of use, and they can be charged with a USB cable while being used. What especially impressed us was how easily these can be placed on the charger, reducing the possibilities of those awkward moments when you arrive for work and then realise that the headset isn’t charged.įor those that entirely forget about charging, these take 2 hours and 40 minutes to reach the total battery capacity, giving a theoretical life of 36 hours.

The left side has pins that interface to the charging base, the power button that doubles for Bluetooth pairing, the USB-C charging port and a button that controls the noise-cancelling function.Ī sufficiently simple layout that most people should embrace after receiving a relatively short walkthrough on how to operate them. The right side mounts the track controls for audio listening, the Teams button that answers or ends calls, and a button on the end of the microphone can mute/unmute or activate a voice assistant. While this headset might be inherently easier for a right-handed person to use, this bias isn’t as evident as we’ve seen elsewhere, and the button selection is reasonably well dispersed between the two sides.

The best over-ear headphones money can buy.

This functionality allows you to use two different computers or devices, and seamlessly transition between them. The Bluetooth on the Evolve2 is version 5.2, supports the pairing of the headphones with up to eight different devices and can connect to two of those at any one time. What it lacks are any audio jack options making it exclusively either Bluetooth or USB connected. The headset has a soft carry case that includes a pocket for the Bluetooth adapter and a USB-A to USB-C cable to charge the headset or directly connect it to a computer over USB. Our review Evolve2 75 sample was the Microsoft Teams compatible USB-A headset with the charging base that comes with the Jabra Link 380 Bluetooth adapter. They felt lightweight yet finely crafted and comfortable to hold and wear.

Picking these up for the first time, nothing stood out as misplaced or ill-considered. Jabra chose not to do that here, and the Evolve2 75 is significantly different from the original Evolve 75 it replaces in both form and function.Įverything about the new design is smoother and more elegant, with a shorter retractable microphone boom and a discrete charging base. Typically, when headphone maker produces a second version of a successful design, they often retain much of the original structure and technology, primarily to reduce costs.
