Poly - Blackwire 8225 Wired Headset with Boom Mic (Plantronics) - Dual-Ear (Stereo) Computer Headset - USB-A to Connect to Your PC/Mac - Active Noise Canceling - Works with Teams, Zoom & More

I bought this as a replacement because one of my cats chewed the cord on my original headset. This is the exact same model and it’s a refurb but you wouldn’t know because it works great! I’m especially pleased that it came with a heavy duty neoprene case so I can put it away after work & not have to worry about my darling purr-babies snacking on the cord again. I also have a Bluetooth headset I use sometimes but the wired one is so much more reliable!

The item is as described. It's a little expensive, but in the end, you will always pay more for name brand items. I had been using Plantronics for several years to hold meetings online, but usually the cheaper versions cost about $40. This is the first headset from Plantronics I have spent 3x the price on and I am not disappointed, but I will say it is priced too high for what it offers. I think a reasonable price would be $75-$85. The microphone is the same as the cheaper models I used and the volume doesn't seem to be as loud, but the quality and noise cancelling is better.

I work from home, and I've had my fair share of headsets, but this is just in another level.I moved to a building where there's a lot of noise lately due to renovations, I turn on ANC on mid and I can't hear ANYTHING other than the important stuff (my clients), it is simply AMAZING. I've never had a headset to help me out so much with noise.Whoever designed this, needs a raise, this thing is marvelous.

The media could not be loaded. I purchased these for working in a call center to help with the surrounding office noise. The boom is flexible. They work great, but after a couple of hours they start to get uncomfortable and they pressure from the speakers. It could be because I wear glasses, but I'm not sure. The cushions are nice, I will be returning these.

Purchased this headset for the excellent reviews and the Poly name. This was a waste of money and I wish I could return it. The noise canceling in the ears is ok, and the noise canceling feature for the mic isn't great at all. People still ask about noises in my background. Big issue for me is the mute feature. I often times am in a group teams call all shift, however sometimes I need to mute the teams call and go answer or make a call in Cisco Jabber. You can not do that with this headset. When you mute in teams it mutes the entire headset period! I even chatted with Poly and they said it isn't possible. So back to the $20 headset my company gave me.

It works to cancel noise from headphones not the microphone

Hello, I unfortunately am looking for a refund with this product along with the other one that I ordered, meaning I ordered two of these headsets. I will include this exact message in the other refund request. Anyway, the reason I’m looking for a refund is because the sound the microphone produces for the recipient, meaning person I’m calling, is horrible. I consistently day in and day out get complaints regarding it. It is beginning to affect my job and quite frankly would love to get this refund initiated and order a different style/brand so I can solve this problem. please let me know where we go from here to issue these refunds. Thank you very much and best wishes

Here are some things you can’t disable:* audible announcement of “noise cancelling off” voice* tone that sounds on mute/unmute* Microsoft Teams integration. The mute button turns into a “Teams mute” rather than a system-level mute when on a call* There’s an “end call” button that you can’t disable. It’s easy to confuse for the mute buttonAlso the mute button gets out of sync with MS Teams, so you aren’t muted when you think you are. This one is impossible to live with
