EKSA H6 Wireless Headset with Microphone & USB Dongle [Up to 55 Hours & 10 Metre Range] Bluetooth Computer Headset with AI Noise Cancelling Mic, Over Ear Headphone for Business/Office/Home/Teams/Zoom

Microphone quality could be better but, at this price point, I’ve not seen better.
As a background, I bought the wireless version of this headset (EKSA H6) with the USB dongle to go with my particular setup – I work across two PCs (one Windows and one Linux) and currently have my mouse, keyboard, webcam & headset linked to the pair of them via a USB-Switch, meaning I can jump from one machine to the next with ease. My current wired headset has an on-ear design and it’s really uncomfortable after a while so I was looking for a headset with over-ear cushions instead that was compatible with my setup – even better if it was wireless. Step in the EKSA H6.This headset works seamlessly with my setup and switches, along with my keyboard etc, from my Windows machine to my Linux one within a fraction of a second – voice notifications through the headset tells me when it’s disconnecting from one and reconnecting to the other. It’s lightweight and is comfortable to wear for extended periods of time and the auto-mute function of flipping up the microphone makes it easy to avoid deafening your coworkers with an unexpected cough or sneeze.I use this for voice and video calls via MS Teams and Google Meet and, while it’s not as sleek as some more premium headsets on the market, it’s not as huge and cumbersome as most of those at the more budget end of the market that I’ve seen, so I don’t feel self-conscious wearing it. The sound quality is acceptable too, bearing in mind I’m only using it to hear my coworkers voices. They obviously don’t compare at all to the Bose QC 35 II I have for personal use when listening to music but, for voice calls, they work just fine. Passive noise cancellation from the large, soft ear cushions is pretty good – another reason I prefer this style to an on-ear version as they have an innate ability to stifle outside distractions. Based on short recordings I’ve made and then listened back to with both this headset and the wired Jabra one it’s replacing, the clarity of the mic is admittedly slightly muffled. Concerned about this, I specifically asked a few coworkers about the clarity of my voice on calls, but they feel it’s fine so I’m not going to complain too hard.Overall this headset clearly isn’t the best on the market, but at £54 it does a good job fitting the bill as a decent headset for making/taking voice & video calls and switching between two different machines at the push of a button. For comparison – to get an over-ear, wireless headset with USB dongle and the crystal-clear sound & mic I’m used to on my current wired Jabra headset, I’d probably be looking at the Jabra Evolve2 85 which come in at north of a whopping £370! Faced with that prospect, I’ll happily sacrifice a little sound and mic quality in favour of keeping the difference of £320 in my bank!

Great – but one problem!
Mostly excellent except that there appears to be a significant design flaw.When the in-built battery runs low, you obviously have to plug it in to re-charge. Then it automatically switches itself off, and refuses to switch back on while it is recharging. This is crazy as you could, for example, be in the middle of a Zoom call, run out of battery, and there is no way to quickly get audio back.ONLY 2 STARS BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEMDOES ANYONE KNOW OF A WAY TO FIX THIS?? (if there is an easy fix, I’ll happily put back to 5 stars!)

I’ve gone back to my old wired headset
Really difficult to use . Even when using the blue tooth dongle it’s erratic and can be crackly. It seems to switch itself off / disconnect. You finish a call , and when the next one comes in minutes later you can’t hear the person on the other end without resetting the device.

Great Product
Very good product but 1 of the sets the microphone stopped working. I contacted the customer service department and they sent a brand new set to me within a day. excellent customer service.

Great product, mic is amazing, sound quality is outstanding. Good for who wears glasses. I just had to enlarge it a bit by forcing it wide because it was too tight. if you do this, it won’t press your head.
