Speak 710 Speaker Phone - Unified Communications Certified Portable Conference Speaker with Bluetooth Adapter and USB - Connect with Laptops, Smartphones and Tablets

It's a nice little speaker with good sound quality, very good mic quality and range. Prior to getting my own I've used these in conference rooms larger than they claim it is good for with no problems. Touch controls are simple, reliable and easy to use. Clear at a glance when you are muted (much better than fiddling with mute buttons in a video conference app), and works well via bluetooth too. It even looks good. I almost always use it plugged in to my laptop so cannot comment on battery life. Yes, there are cheaper units out there, and if you are only using it yourself in your home office it's more than you need. But you know what, even if that's all you are doing it is still a nice unit if you have the money.

Yeah, I know it might be an expensive piece of kit but since the pandemic started in march it has been a joy to use it. I use it for voice conferences, playing music, it integrates with most microsoft tools, works great with zoom, the sound quality is brilliant so it can be used as a small bluetooth speaker. Didn't have any problems with it connecting to multiple devices in the same time, it has noise cancelation so your voice sounds pretty sharp and clear at the other end. Build quality is good, the touch buttons are responsive and easy to use, the metal finish of the top grill gives that extra professional feeling.

I’ve been a remote worker for years, and used a wired Sennheiser binaural headset for calls and conferences. But with Covid, my hours online increased hugely, and being tethered to the desk became increasingly uncomfortable. This is the solution. I paid the extra for the 710 over the 510 on the promise — which I can’t test, of course — of better sound quality. But it’s more than good enough; none of my regular contacts noticed the change from the headset (mercifully we usually do without video) and there’s never a problem with quality in Teams, Webex or phone calls. What is worth the extra is the little prop stand in the back of the 710. And the low-latency Bluetooth dongle, which I use (with Windows) in preference to the USB cable. My Apple machine seems happier with the cable, but I don’t use that nearly so much. It’s fine as a general speaker for recorded speech too. Just don’t expect it to do music; that’s really not what it’s for. The 710 is not cheap, but if you use it every working day, the improved comfort is well worth the money.

I'm using the Speak 710 for conference calls via Slack, Zoom, Facetime and Skype for Business. This review comes having used the device for one week. Connection is via the included Jabra Link 370 dongle on a Mac, but bluetooth connection from Mac and iOS devices has worked fine too. The call quality is nice and clear with a natural sound. I've had no complaints about my voice quality from the other side. Comfort-wise, I find using a speakerphone is far nicer than using earbuds, even very comfortable ones. The speaker controls are easily accessible, changing volume and muting is very simple. I particularly like the visual mute indication (lights go red) I love the portability of the device - it's simple to just pick it up and change rooms, moving between various locations with no audio problems. I usually leave the 710 connected via USB so it's fully charged, when running via battery I had a day of normal use out of it (not constant) with a little juice to spare. I'm very happy with the 710. I'm not sure how I previously survived without it :) Update: 4 months later, it's still performing excellently.

I ummed and aahed for quite a while before purchasing, but after a week of constant use working from home I am so pleased I eventually did. The freedom from not having headphones glued to my head for 8 hours a day is wonderful: less intense, no head pressure, more natural conversations. The product is very high quality - I’m not sure what the lower spec versions are like but I decided if I was going to spend a lot then I might as well go for high quality, so I bought the Jabra 710. It’s been great, easy to use and superb sound quality.

For remote workers and use in small meetings rooms this is an excellent unit, the sound quality is more than good enough for meetings, the controls are relatively easy to use. All round a very suitable product for the main purpose of meetings.

Not much to say here apart from that this is great! I haven't touched a headset or microphone since I bought it. Sound quality is great, operation and setup is easy and build quality very good. I have yet to try the battery but will take it on my next business trip (in the included carry case). If you have online meetings and work from home - buy one!!

Dodgy microphone poor quality?
