Cisco Headset 700 Series

Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Headset 700 Series

I use the Cisco 730 for audio and video calls and for listening to music while working throughout the day. As a remote worker the noise canceling helps me focus when it is noisy outside. I can use the headset 10+ hours a day and the battery never runs down. The headset is light weight but build quality is excellent.
  • Sound quality is excellent.
  • Headset is lightweight compared to other models I have used.
  • Battery life is excellent. All day use on 1 charge.
  • The cushioning on the top of the headset could be beefier.
  • Allows me to focus more because of the noise cancellation.
  • Hands free lets me use the computer while I am on a call
  • Light weight and great battery life means I can spend all day in meetings, if needed.
Opened the box and charged the headset the recommended 2.5 hours before using. I plugged the USB dongle into my laptop and there was a firmware update for the device that took about 5 minutes to download and install. Once I rebooted the device I set it as the default in Windows and it worked with my Zoom, Webex and Jabber clients seamlessly.
The noise cancellation is superior to other headsets I have used. Sound quality is superior as well. Better than some over ear headsets I have used. When I am not in meetings I tend to listen to music from Youtube streaming channels and the sound is better as well.
I haven't used the headset with my mobile phone so I have not used the app to make any adjustments. For me, after a firmware update when I initially received the device, the settings have remained as they were when I opened the box.

Would you buy Cisco Headsets again?

Yes

Well suited for loud environments like a busy office or a work from home user that may have sirens or lawn mowing happening. Well suited for someone that is going to wear them all day, they are light weight and do not press to hard on your ears. Noise cancellation is good for an on ear device versus an over ear device.
