PowerConf

Excellent product and sound quality but does not mute MS Teams automatically. I have used this for about a month regularly and it is fantastic - not having to wear a headset for long calls is a big improvement. Easy to setup, excellent sound quality but at least for me does not mute teams when you hit the mute button. Seems to mute zoom correctly but not teams. Of course the sound is muted but it doesn’t update the mute indicator which means people are not sure if you are about to say something. I would still recommend but I just don’t know why it doesn’t do something so simple - perhaps the product is not at fault - I don’t know.

Currently I am working from home, so I bought this device as I have to attend many conference calls. Using the bluetooth connection, the sound is fine, but the microphone disconnects in the middle of calls in many occasions, a big inconvenient if you are in a meeting (this happens both using Skype for Business and Cisco Webex). Using the USB connections, for whatever reason, my office desktop (windows 10) cannot handle the speaker. It works fine using a Chromebook. I contacted the Anker customer service, and they thought the device is faulty, but I did not feel confident with the process they suggested to exchange it, and the communication was slow: basically you receive a reply after 24 h, so when you have exchange 3 mails... is four days, with not a lot of progress. Finally, I decide to return the device using the Amazon return service. ***UPDATE*** It seems the problem with the mic is not caused by the PowerConf. I bought two phonespeakers of different brands and have the same problem, so the problem seems to be related with the drivers installed on the Windows 10 office laptop, that I cannot update, I was using. Anker customer service contacted me again and sent me a device, in order to try it again. I have used it with a Chromebook and my Android phone and it works very well, the people on the other side of the line hear me with no problem. It doubles up as speaker and the sound quality is good enough (much better than the speakers of the phone or the laptop). In addition, the size and shape makes it very convenient to take it everywhere.

I have now owned this for approx three months and have used it extensively. I bought it due to working from home and the sheer number of conference calls i was now participating in. I primarily use Teams on my work PC. Pro's (using it connected to PC via USB cable) Vastly improved microphones over my surface pro (gen 3) laptop. Clear speaker with good volume adjustment. Nicely made and finish. Good price compared to the competition. Central mute button is very useful on calls and quicker than using the software. PC turns the device on when starting Con's Tried to use it once on bluetooth and even at 2% volume it was ridiculously loud and unusable. I wouldn't play music on it, tried it and there are much better options out there if you need this facility, this is purely designed for calls. Summary: I am really pleased with the device but am using it as an integral part of my home office set up so the portability etc is not relevant to me. I contacted Anker regarding the bluetooth problem and have updated the firmware as recommended but have not tried the bluetooth since so am unsure as to whether this corrected the problem. Overall very pleased with my purchase, had i not encountered the bluetooth issue it would have been 5 stars as i believe products should work as intended out of the box and not be reliant on firmware updates.

Having bought a conference phone during covid for working from home I always had issues. Ending up on the headset most of the day. However upgrading to the Anker is a revelation, it works with MS teams with no issues and people tell me the sound quality is great and I can certainly hear call my end perfectly. It seems very well constructed with a high quality feel. It was on offer when I bought so very happy with the price and usual quick and easy delivery. So 5 stars for me. Great improvement for my home office and used 4-5 hours a day now.

Works great, easy to use, essential for hybrid meetings and recording the audio for meetings / events

Seems to work ok.

Handy device to hold meetings whilst working remotely. Good sound quality and the multiple microphones are very clever

After about 3 years, I've decided I have had enough of this Speakerphone. Like many people, I bought this to simplify my life during the COVID Lockdown. It never really worked well, in my view. It's a combination of little things that have frustrated me over time. The two main connections were either via BT or a USB-C Connection. BT was really flakey, and lots of people reported poor audio quality when I was talking. Switching over to a physical connection helped but reduced it's portability. It also struggled a bit with the Mute capability, and it basically never sync'd with either WebEx Teams or MS Teams. I've recently switched over to a new Jabra, and the audio quality is massively improved. I'd go so far to say that you might even listen to music over it. I paid £79 for the Anker 3 years ago, and it's £100 now. The Jabra is about £120, so this Anker just isn't worth the money.

Excellent speaker. Le son est clair et suffisamment puissant. La connexion via bluetooth est facile et rapide. Fonctionne parfaitement avec Microsoft Teams. Le design est agréable et assez qualitatif au niveau des finitions. Seul bémol : il n'y a pas la place pour stocker le câble de chargement dans l'étuis fourni. Mais la boîte est pratique pour garder l'étuis avec l'appareil et le câble.

Great product especially during current 'WFH' environment.

Práctico para trabajar desde casa. Todos me escuchan perfecto.

Microfone muito bom, audio bom e a baeria tem uma duração longa. a Case de proteção muito boa também.
