Jabra Talk 45 Black Bluetooth Headset for High Definition Hands-Free Calls with Dual Mic Noise Cancellation, 1-Touch Voice Activation and Streaming Multimedia (Renewed)

This is the second one that I have bought after 5 years. The first generation had a different model name (Jabra Stealth) but it is pretty much the same as this one. I like it since it has a real on-off switch that does not accidentally turn on when placed in your bag or pocket, it easily stays in your ear, great sound quality, battery life. dependability, and styling. All at a rather reasonable price.

Max volume for phone calls is NOT loud enough.

I don't really use my phone without a headset. I had gone through 5 or 6 Plantronics headsets over the years, and had always stuck to 2 base models that I knew I liked. They never worked "flawlessly", but they were very reliable, were small to carry in a pocket...and thankfully comfortable. Those models aren't being sold anymore, so I had to look for another.This model filled the bill perfectly -- small in the same way, cheaper in price, and good battery life. The battery isn't a extensive as the plantronics ones I had previously, but it's still plenty to get you through multiple days with plenty of use. This will be my new brand & model for the future. :)

The product is working but speaks in chinese! Not happy with that, as i will now have to download firmware and attempt to change the language…if its sold in US it should be refurbished to english.

The headset arrived in excellent condition. However, the language is currently set to Chinese, and my preferred language is English or Spanish. I’ve been trying to change the language but haven’t been able to connect it to the app to make the adjustment—that’s the main issue.Additionally, I’ve been trying to connect it to the Jabra app for a day now without success. I will continue trying, but aside from the language setting, everything else is fine. I’ve actually owned about three of these headsets before and have always liked them.

First, to be clear I'm reviewing one of the "Amazon Renewed" ones and not new retail. The renewed products are supposed to function like new however. I will be returning and will post an update.On the plus sides, the unit is very comfortable to wear, has excellent battery life, and is plenty loud which is a problem that I've had with MANY other headsets.On the down side, the sound quality and features are significantly worse than my Jabra ERA from years back. This blows my mind. How can a tech product from the same manufacturer have less functionality and poorer sound quality than one from years back? As an example of features, the ERA allowed one to change the voice personality...guy, girl, accent, persona, etc.. This is not possible with the Talk 45 even with the Jabra Assist mobile app installed. I personally found the mobile app BTW to be another negative and added no value; though it is necessary if you want text messages read back to you I believe. Most of the features of the app were unavailable for the Talk 45. The app will need access to some of your personal information and consume at least some additional phone battery. I don't know about you but I don't like to have what I perceive as poorly written apps that add no value like that on my phone...deleted.As for sound quality, the noise cancellation seems to be a complete gimmick. It had zero effect on my end and for the receiver of the call I actually had some complaining that this headset magnified the background noise so badly that they clam they cant bare to listen unless I was standing still (I was pushing a grocery cart).Note, I'm using the headset with a OnePlus 6T Pro McLaren on T-Mobile if either or both of these has anything to do with my bad experience with this product.

I love the features this bluetooth has. You can answer and ignore calls by voice, connect multiple phones at once, answer calls on separate devices, the battery life is excellent, and the volume output is good as well. The only flaw is it gets uncomfortable after a while.

I always like the jabra talk two so everytime I need to replace one i get the same one.This one i just received i do have an issue with it, it speaks in Chinese. For some unknown reason I can't figure out how to get engish speaking. If anyone knows how to change the language I would appreciate it.
