Been using the 5200 for 5 years... im sticking to these until plantronics/poly comes out with something new and better. Im a sales rep on the go and many deals made while using it. My on the field techs also love it... we all communicate to each other loud and clear. But when Im at home in front of the computer... im using the Jabra mono evolve 65. I prefer that as im having more lengthy in depth conversations and it gives me confidence having the mic closer to my mouth. Not to say that the 5200 wouldnt be good for that... I just like to keep em fresh for when Im out and about...
The 5200 really has set the standard for this form factor of a headset. If you like the 5200, give the new Yealink BH71 a look. You'll notice a similar design but some nice improvements to be aware of. th-cam.com/video/I9Jcyv08fLc/w-d-xo.html
Such a perfect TH-cam video with all the point to point content without any crap. I'm so amazed to see this video , proving the true utility of TH-cam. Made my day. The orator is so perfect in her speech. So professional.
Just a heads up the “Newer” 5200’s don’t work in cold climates, the mics will cut out within seconds and won’t work until the headset it warm again. The only response me and my colleagues get is that the unit is faulty and we get a replacement that is exactly the same.. I’m on my 5th unit with the same issue, so I’m gonna give the Jabra a shot My 5 year old 5200 worked great until I ran it over with a truck!
Hey Erik, we have been starting to hear this more so thanks for bringing it up. We’ll have to look into why this is happening but hopefully the Jabra gets the job done for you.
I have the same problem, if its cold outside Voyager will stop working. If its like 5°C and less then it'll be no more talking 😌 so im giving chance to Jabra 65 too 🙏🤘
Thanks for the comparison-test. ,,Went out today an bought the JT65 (..previously been using Plantronics 5200) ,,So really looking forward to experience this JabraTalk65, with 14h talkTime. :-)
Great video. Well done. My view of your video tells me Jabra because if USB-C as the tie breaker. I already own the 5200 and love it but charging port annoying with older tech. Outside of USB-C they sound very similar, would you agree?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Yes, we sound both to be very similar in regards to mic quality, the Talk 65 maybe had a slight edge but it's so close callers really wouldn't notice a night and day difference of one over the other.
Hello Bro, Could you please provide a score between 0 and 10 for the phone call mic quality on the Jabra Talk 65, along with valid reasons for your rating? Thank you Brother 🙏🙂👍
Aside from the truly better voice reproduction quality by Jabra, I'm impressed how these Voyager 5200 cope with different kind of noise. In deed - just better than the new Jabra 65.
Were we listening to the same video, how is it better than Jabra 65? What good is noise canceling if your voice is then so distorted that the caller can barely understand you?
Good video. I have the Plantronics Voyager Legend and ive been having mic problems. On the other side, they hear me fine for a bit and then all of a sudden it gets low and they can't hear me no more. Is this problem present in the 5200? I thought it was the refurbished/used, but when i bought a new one from Best Buy, the problem continued, thanks.
Amazing video as usual 👍. Perfect presenter 😍 The only weakness in my case is that you don't let time without speaking in the different noisy environment. I'm looking for a headset (mono) able to block other near people talking whom currently trigger my speech recognition app ☹. Any recommanded model among this two or others in same budget range? A model ables to block people speaking at around 1 meter of me even when I'm not speaking.
Thanks for watching! Maybe the Yealink BH71 would be your best bet but most likely no model is going to 100% block out people speaking this close to you. th-cam.com/video/I9Jcyv08fLc/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for your answer! Why do you think BH71 is better than 5200 for voice recognition in noisy environment? On your videos BH71 seems to filter less noize. But videos are may be misleading.

I have a podcast and need to find a mono headset like this that has a directional mic. Recording doesn't sound good on my blue parrot. Have tips on a directional mic? Headset like this
Have you noticed Audio Volume issues with Talk 65? I have tried almost everyway to turn up the volume and its still pretty low. Maybe I got a bad pair.
I used own poly 5200. Since beginning I had trouble with it, noise cancelation would often cause problems like ppl would hear me so bad that they could not hear or understand what I been talking. Other things which I hated the most was disconnecting my calls without my knowledge and that charging box yeah it looks cool but it was more just a case than charger 😉. So now I'm testing Jabra 65 and it's more simple so far but too soon to give good 👍
Thank you for making a comparison video so fast! I really appreciate it. Quick question: I notice there's no mute button on the Jabra talk 65. Does this mean I can't mute the mic during a zoom and ms teams call?
Michelle please don't be mad but in my opinion it's ridiculous comparison. Pro, premium device from Poly, and average, BlueParott (sorry, Jabra... 😳). I have both ofcourse - I think that Jabra did big mistake to give this model as own... 🤦🏻♂️

Great video Ixchel ! 😊 I own the Poly 5200 (the model with the wind guard) and a couple of extra things I like about it are: - It has a high definition setting that can be switched on in the plantronics app! It makes a big difference in sound whether your listening to someone speak or listening to an audio book or TH-cam etc! - Another super important point is that lots of people where AirPods for phone conversations which for the person wearing them, they can cancel out noise around them to hear the person they’re speaking with better and that’s great however, the AirPods do not have noise cancellation for the microphones so the person on the other end of the phone call is hearing all of that background noise, which is just terrible, especially wind, which brings me to my fourth thing that I like. - The Poly voyager 5200 to me literally has the best wind reduction I’ve ever experienced or should I say the person listening on the other end has ever experienced. I could be walking through a super windy day outside and on a phone call and I fire ask the person I’m speaking to, “can you hear all that wind”? Almost 10 times out of 10 they say, “I can’t hear any wind, you sound totally clear”. To me, that is a huge, huge deal! There is only one thing that I wish could be improved is the way it fits in your ear. That said, it is not at all a big enough deal to not purchase it and love it because it works awesome, and I have tested on purpose like a total nerd so many Bluetooth headsets and Bluetooth earbuds to see which one sound great during phone calls until I’ve been blue in the face and I can honestly say the 5200 is the best that I’ve ever used thus far! And so, I carry both my AirPods Pros as well as my Poly 5200. One thing important to mention is there’s a 5200 that has the wind guard and a 5200 I believe that doesn’t and they look the same so you have to make sure that the one you purchase has the Wyngarde which is probably 20 or $30 more than the other one, but unbelievably worth it! 👍🏼😊
Wow, the voice distortion with background noise on the Voyager 5200 is atrocious! Is this also true in real life situations? If so, then the Voyager 5200 is next to useless.
It's a fair point but the 5200 was manufactured probably 10 years ago and hasn't been updated since because it's been such a popular headset for customers. Whereas the Talk 65 was made this year (2022). Just something to keep in mind.
5200 is old, true, but still is the best headset on the market. There should be an upgrade long time ago. Still Jabra/blueparrot is not even close. Read some reviews on amazon
