Good sound but too big product and anecdotal active noise reduction

Plantronics Backbeat PRO Bluetooth Kits (Accessory)

Customer Review

I was looking for a headset with an active noise reduction system in order to effectively perform work in peace and I was very disappointed with the BabkBeat Pro.
The sound is rather good, especially Bluetooth, the device inspires confidence and proposed features are very interesting but the design gives indeed very "massive" on the head. We are very far from the aesthetics of Beats Seinheiser or Momentum such products that provide good sound quality without sacrificing the look. Yet the Backbeat is not repulsive, it is simply built in width rather than divide the volume in height.

My biggest disappointment was the active noise reduction. In my living room, quiet, I still clearly perceives the sound of my keyboard (while it is chiclet type and therefore not noisy). Similarly, the television on, I managed to understand what people are saying very clearly. Finally, the permanent buzz related to active noise reduction is rather unpleasant.

Is this a bad Bluetooth headset? No, clearly the sound is clean, dynamic and related features (remote control, pause music to the removal of the helmet microphone function) are quite good though anecdotal views. You want to isolate yourself by plane? Forget it, it is not convenient to carry and noise reduction is minimal.
