Man I was anxious for this review. The mic impressed me with the volume, the noise cancelling is not very good, but because it does a great job on raising the volume of the voice when David talked, it was kind of okay. Overall I'm impressed though. It's awesome to know there is now decent options of a true wireless earbud with dongle and Teams/zoom/etc certified
Hi Caio, thanks for sharing your feedback. In comparison to any other earbuds we've tested so far, these are the best for those who want earbuds for their business use on a computer + mobile phone.
So glad you managed to get your hands on this early on and do a review. I am quite puzzled why none of the manufactures have made wireless earbuds with a dongle connector. It seems like an immediate buy for anyone who currently uses a bluetooth earbud with a windows PC. This makes even more sense when you realise that all the gaming headsets require a dongle - meaning the problem is obvious and this zone true wireless earbuds is the only one in the market! The price does suck though…
Thanks for watching! You’re right the USB dongle makes a lot of sense when connecting to the computer. Definitely an investment and one of the best we’ve tested so far.
Great my go to channel to get exact info I always foor in the heqdsets and for me the noise cancellation of the mic is the most important factor as I drive a lot and I eed to a mic that can let other side feell noise free from my side (only my voice) I would suggest adding a driving test of road noise cancellation test for headsets mics and also having people in the car along with the road noise. Also another use case for me is to connect headsets to phones directly or via different sort of connectors such as USB C or lightning connector for iPhones.
Hey Adam, we agree! In comparison to the other choices, these are the best we've tested for those that want earbuds for their computer calls/meetings and mobile phone.
Many thanks for this great and helpful review. I must say, I was also expecting a bit more in terms of mic quality. I am just wondering why there are no other comparable prodcuts (tws earbuds with usb dongle connection) on the market - seems like something that many people might be looking for (including me). Do you know whether there will be similar offerings from competitors in the near future?
Thanks for watching! There's nothing comparable we're aware of coming out yet. The closest thing that has a microphone boom for better voice quality is here th-cam.com/video/LRmTMpZVoVc/w-d-xo.html
They look etremely similar to the Jaybird Vista earbuds in many ways. The case looks the same, the custom gels too. I wonder if they are made by the same manufacturer. In terms of the microphone quality they don't sound as good as the Jabra Elite 7 or the Airpods Pro. Great video as always.
Hi Ricardo, I'm not sure Logitech uses a third party manufacture. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! For those that need a pair of earbuds for computer use, these will be the best we've tested so far. Being that Logitech includes their own USB Dongle, it gives you a much better connectivity and audio experience on the computer.
After listening to the mic test I have to say I'm bitterly disappointed in how they performed. The technology they are claiming in marketing, in terms of directional mics, aligns with the technology of the poly 8200uc , which I have. And the 8200s are far superior in eliminating background noise. I was really looking forward to these but will continue with my polys. Thanks for the vid. Keep it going!
Hi Joel, thanks for sharing your thoughts. One of these days a manufactures going to come out with an earbud model that has an amazing microphone! In our opinion the microphone on these for earbuds isn't the best or worst, but definitely doesn't WOW you.
Great review! Does muting the mic with the headset button work like most usb headsets where the mic gets completely cut off from any app that uses it, regardless of whether there's an incoming/ongoing call or no call at all?
Went to buy through your link and saw it was a pre-order do you know when will be available? ALso I did not find the option to put in the code for discount.
Hi Kevin, yes this headset is still on pre-order and we don’t have an exact ETA as of yet. To avoid any delays, customers are placing their preorder to get the earbuds as quickly as possible. At the payment part of checkout is a spot you can put the discount code. If you don’t see it still, let us know and we can apply it manually if needed.
Could you test the battery life/talktime on these wrt the manufacturer rated numbers? The short battery life and need to constantly charge is the real barrier to using earbuds for business needs
When testing the mic it would be beneficial to hear the difference depending on where the background noise is coming from. If the sound is directly in front, I'd suspect a lot of it to be picked up vs far off to the side or behind
Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback. We've heard some of the same thoughts so on many of our new mic tests we now do this. Whether it be with a person talking or we now connect two speakers with noise coming from the left and right. Check out our newest video for reference th-cam.com/video/fFQxlCvImZM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-2vWau7uyJY2mHT7
Just got mine and both the mic and sound quality is servicable but lacking especially for the price but they are the only game in town for now (certifications for the Teams, etc). Agree that the battery case should have contained a slot for the USB adapter since this is aimed for work and on the go or they need to reduce the size of the adapter so it can be kept plugged into laptop while reducing the risk of it being lost or damaged.
Hi is Logitech Zone wireless better than Jabra Evolve 2 buds? I am interested in both and can't decide! Your mic comparison seems to me the Logutech is slightly better on mic performance with noisy background on average
Hi Anthony, if only comparing microphone quality in our opinion we found the Evolve2 Buds to have better microphone sound, but the Zone TWS we found to have better mic noise cancellation. If you use a meeting software with noise suppression though, you're good either way.
Expected more from that mic noise cancellation… The noise keeps going into the call even though the voice is quite clear, but it does create a lot of disturbance when there is external noise in the meetings. I don’t think this ones are suitable for an open space as I was expecting 😔 I guess I will have to keep messing my hair around with my olds Jabra Evolve 75.
Hi Alejandro, we hoped there would be more mic noise cancellation as well. All things considered though, for those who don't want a traditional headset when connecting to a computer, this will be a good fit for a lot of people that want earbuds instead of a headset. The included USB dongle gives you a better audio and connectivity experience. There's still no earbuds yet that will compete with a headset like the Evolve 75 that you mentioned. But for those who refuse to mess up their hair, this is a good one to consider 😄
thanks for the review. I have a specific question about remote desktop / Terminal: putting your earbuds in the box (in order to charge) you will also experience a loss of bluetooth connection? Thanks
Do these work on full stereo mode (full quality) along with the mic at the same time . Connected on pc. If you tried BT earbuds they always give two options. One is a lower quality connection for the mic to work .
Great review. And it covers the most important factor, mic noise canceling. From a mic standpoint, I'd rather stick to my Bose quite comfort earbuds. Thanks David for the review.
Thanks for watching! Yes, from a mic noise cancellation standpoint it didn't block out as much as we hoped. It did sound pretty good in comparison to other earbuds we've tested though. In addition, when connecting to a computer, the included USB Dongle gives you a much better experience vs other earbuds connecting to a computer via Bluetooth that doesn't always work the best.
Hey there, I'm wondering if you connect this piece with a USB dongle, does the audio quality deteriorate with the mic on just like other single-channel Bluetooth earbuds? I have been looking for a replacement for my overhead headphones, can't wait for this to come out. average audio quality with this mic quality presented in the video will suffice just fine.

I'm really looking more for my voice to come in very clear and reduce background noise when I'm on phone calls, not so much for use on the computer. If I've got the shower running or the exhaust fan going when I walk into the bathroom, or if I'm washing dishes, or have to run the vacuum, or I'm walking out in the very busy and noisy NYC streets with construction going and traffic, or outside in the streets on a windy day, I need true wireless earbuds that are still going to pick my voice up very clean and clearly for the other person to hear me well on my phone calls. So far I haven't found anything that can match or exceed the call quality for my Sennheiser Presence, single sided Bluetooth headset. I was really looking for call quality that can match, or exceed, that high bar in true wireless earbuds. What would you recommend would be the absolute best true wireless earbuds that I could get for phone call quality, with the best noise canceling microphones for my needs?
Hi Ronald, this is what many customers are looking for. Unfortunately there’s no TWS earbuds we’ve tested as of yet that will give the level of quality you’d like. The best we’ve tested so far is the Zone TWS in this video. Another model you may want to consider that’s low profile and will meet your needs much better is here th-cam.com/video/LRmTMpZVoVc/w-d-xo.html
@@HeadsetAdvisor Between this, and the Jabra Elite 7 Pro, which do you think are better for call quality and reducing background noise in your environment on your phone on a call, and letting your voice come through clearly in a noisy environment?
@@ronaldsohanii7220 flip a coin and take your pick. That’s how close most of these earbuds are in the microphone quality. If you need good computer connection, Logitech Zone TWS is the way to go. If not, you’ll save money going with the Jabra Elite 7 Pro.
@@ronaldsohanii7220 We found the Logitech Zone TWS to perform better for calls and meetings. Just be aware though, neither is going to give you the best mic quality in comparison to one like we shared earlier that has a mic boom.
I had really high expectations and there’s still one open question, how do these sound in a windy environment. Like taking a Teams call while commuting. I bought Shozk’s Opencomm and they are great for the office and wind but if there’s too much ambient noise, I can hear the others end. Guess I’ll also get a pair of Jabra Elite 7s.
Hi John, we'll have to test it out in a windy environment to see how it performs. From our testing on just about any headset so far, there's no microphone yet that blocks out the wind noise when it's blowing directly at the microphone. Also, if connecting to a computer the Logitech will give a better audio experience with the included USB dongle vs connecting a Bluetooth headset directly to your computer.
Detailed review, and watched it end to end. As for the product, I’m not sure it justifies the cost when comparing sound quality. The product’s advantage is integration but that for me does not bend my interest towards a purchase.
Thanks for the review! The mic on this headset sounds average at best. Just got a pair delivered, still unpacked, hesitating what to do - send them back or still git it a try...
Hi Vitaliy, in regards to microphone quality any earbuds we've tested as of today we find customers are usually dissapointed :( We hope in the future, there will be earbuds that offer all the great features most do but have better microphone quality. It's hard because there's only so much you can do in such a small form factor!
Hi Ricky, thanks for sharing your feedback. We found the same thing :( I would imagine it's an extremely hard problem for the engineers to solve with having so little to work with. All things considered though, if you need earbuds to connect to a computer and your main concern isn't havin the best microphone noise cancellation, these will be good to consider.
Thanks for watching and we can't disagree on the microphone. No earbuds today we've tested have the best mic in comparison to a headset with a mic boom. Hopefully one day in the future this will change!
My expectations were too high, or this headset has nothing impressive about it- too much background noise over the call, only basic controls, and average ANC. I can't see any reason to buy this headset instead of Jabra Elite 7 Pro or similar models. Overall, I still believe that full-size headsets suit workplaces better than TWS ones.
Hi Andrii, all fair points and we had high expectations as well. All things considered for a pair of earbuds we still feel these will be a good match for many people. Especially those who are connecting to a computer. The included USB dongle gives you a much better audio and connectivity experience vs pairing a headset to your computer via Bluetooth. There's still no earbuds that will give you the same performance and a headset with a mic boom. Pros and cons to both sides.
@@HeadsetAdvisor agree. I was wrong when I extrapolated my experience working on a Macbook with a great embedded Bluetooth module to other computers, including more affordable ones. All credits to Drew, who explained it to me. You guys are top-notch professionals, and I admire your patience in educating your audience. Long live (Mr.) Headset Advisor!
So my laptop has built in bluetooth, but i *STILL* have to use a usb adapter with these earbuds? Are there ANY headphones that are wireless and dont require taking up a usb port on my laptop?
You can technically connect these earbuds or just about any other bluetooth headset with your computer via Bluetooth. It's recommended to use the USB Dongle for better audio, a more reliable connection and advanced features.
I have had issues with my airpod pros not working well with my work laptop (macbook air). They'll disconnect randomly, or audio will get distorted, or the mic / audio will not be synced, etc. With the USB-A adapter, will this simply work better? Or are these just common bluetooth headset issues that I'll encounter no matter what?
Hi Michael, that’s a common issue we hear from customers with Bluetooth headsets connecting directly to their computer. With the included USB dongle you shouldn’t run into the same issues of your AirPods. Feel free to give them a good try and for any reason you can return within 30 days with shipping covered both ways.
Disappointed in the level of noise cancelling in the mic... Someone needs to come up with wireless earbuds or slim headphones with a boom mic. I love the mic on my Aftershokz, but can't hear in noisy environments..
Thank you for this great video! Anker Soundcore Life A2 NC is much better than these Logitech... the ENC is better cutting the environment noise and sound quality of the microphones is great.
The audio quality is usually pretty decent when using earbuds, but my main concern is the poor quality mic in earbuds. I think I will stick to a normal headset for now. By the way, I forgot to say, awesome review! So helpful and well made! Thank you!✌️
@@HeadsetAdvisor I just got a pair of these earbuds yesterday. So far, sound quality is great, I have had positive feedback of voice clarity from the mic. The only thing is the ANC seems to do pretty much nothing when not using the dongle and it's a little better when connect through it. Certainly better overall sound quality when using the dongle. Any hints or tips for best operation would be great.✌️
Super disappointed in the microphone test. The microphone was way too hot and was clipping your voice in a quiet environment. In fact the microphone sounded way overdriven and I and I don’t believe that was you were always level. That’s annoying. I’m wondering if there’s some other settings that can tone the microphone down a little bit so that you got a little richer tone?
Hey Bryan, we were hoping the microphone performance was going to come out better too, but it was about the same as most other earbuds we've tested. There's no way we're aware of to adjust the microphone tone. Maybe there's a third party app out there that would allow that.
@@HeadsetAdvisor Thank you for taking the time to respond. Very kind of you. I appreciate the time you took in the review. Notably the Jabra elite for 75 bucks sounded twice as good in the microphone test. Probably my number one axe grind on a lot of these earbuds is they don’t have a mute button for a call. …And I’m pointing at you Apple. It makes no sense. What I like about some of these like Jabra and the logitech‘s is they do have mute. One shouldn’t have to be tethered to a phone to be able to mute microphone audio during a call.
It always shocks me how very poor products get marketed for a specific use case and ACTUALLY sell while there are many others that aren't marketed as good with waaay better quality and less price point. The ANC quality is very poor compared to 1more comfobuds pro or elecov clear which are 3rd the price
Hi Michael, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Sorry to hear they're not comfortable for you. Comfort is a tough subject because everyones preferences and what they find comfortable differs.
These are dissapointing earbuds... distance is extremely limited. Unanswered incoming Teams call knocks out the sound in the left earbud until I pull them out and put them back in my ears. I am so dissapointed in these its not funny. My reglar airpods connect better over a distance 3 times as far (40 ft). Tribits for $60 worked better. I am going to return these for a refund if I can....
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We found the mic to be about the same as most of the higher end earbuds but you get the addition of better connectivity and integrations to computer call apps.

Thanks for watching and we can't disagree on the microphone. No earbuds today we've tested have the best mic in comparison to a headset with a mic boom. Hopefully one day in the future this will change!
My expectations were too high, or this headset has nothing impressive about it- too much background noise over the call, only basic controls, and average ANC. I can't see any reason to buy this headset instead of Jabra Elite 7 Pro or similar models. Overall, I still believe that full-size headsets suit workplaces better than TWS ones.
Hi Andrii, all fair points and we had high expectations as well. All things considered for a pair of earbuds we still feel these will be a good match for many people. Especially those who are connecting to a computer. The included USB dongle gives you a much better audio and connectivity experience vs pairing a headset to your computer via Bluetooth.
There's still no earbuds that will give you the same performance and a headset with a mic boom. Pros and cons to both sides.
@@HeadsetAdvisor agree. I was wrong when I extrapolated my experience working on a Macbook with a great embedded Bluetooth module to other computers, including more affordable ones. All credits to Drew, who explained it to me. You guys are top-notch professionals, and I admire your patience in educating your audience. Long live (Mr.) Headset Advisor!
So my laptop has built in bluetooth, but i *STILL* have to use a usb adapter with these earbuds?
Are there ANY headphones that are wireless and dont require taking up a usb port on my laptop?
You can technically connect these earbuds or just about any other bluetooth headset with your computer via Bluetooth.
It's recommended to use the USB Dongle for better audio, a more reliable connection and advanced features.
I have had issues with my airpod pros not working well with my work laptop (macbook air). They'll disconnect randomly, or audio will get distorted, or the mic / audio will not be synced, etc. With the USB-A adapter, will this simply work better? Or are these just common bluetooth headset issues that I'll encounter no matter what?
Hi Michael, that’s a common issue we hear from customers with Bluetooth headsets connecting directly to their computer. With the included USB dongle you shouldn’t run into the same issues of your AirPods.
Feel free to give them a good try and for any reason you can return within 30 days with shipping covered both ways.
Disappointed in the level of noise cancelling in the mic... Someone needs to come up with wireless earbuds or slim headphones with a boom mic. I love the mic on my Aftershokz, but can't hear in noisy environments..
Hi Jack, we agree! Not sure why that hasn't been a solution any of the manufactures have created as of yet but I'm sure it's in the works.
Thank you for this great video! Anker Soundcore Life A2 NC is much better than these Logitech... the ENC is better cutting the environment noise and sound quality of the microphones is great.
Do they work good on a computer?
The audio quality is usually pretty decent when using earbuds, but my main concern is the poor quality mic in earbuds. I think I will stick to a normal headset for now. By the way, I forgot to say, awesome review! So helpful and well made! Thank you!✌️
Thanks for watching!
@@HeadsetAdvisor I just got a pair of these earbuds yesterday. So far, sound quality is great, I have had positive feedback of voice clarity from the mic. The only thing is the ANC seems to do pretty much nothing when not using the dongle and it's a little better when connect through it. Certainly better overall sound quality when using the dongle.
Any hints or tips for best operation would be great.✌️
Super disappointed in the microphone test. The microphone was way too hot and was clipping your voice in a quiet environment. In fact the microphone sounded way overdriven and I and I don’t believe that was you were always level. That’s annoying. I’m wondering if there’s some other settings that can tone the microphone down a little bit so that you got a little richer tone?
Hey Bryan, we were hoping the microphone performance was going to come out better too, but it was about the same as most other earbuds we've tested. There's no way we're aware of to adjust the microphone tone.
Maybe there's a third party app out there that would allow that.
@@HeadsetAdvisor Thank you for taking the time to respond. Very kind of you. I appreciate the time you took in the review. Notably the Jabra elite for 75 bucks sounded twice as good in the microphone test. Probably my number one axe grind on a lot of these earbuds is they don’t have a mute button for a call. …And I’m pointing at you Apple. It makes no sense. What I like about some of these like Jabra and the logitech‘s is they do have mute. One shouldn’t have to be tethered to a phone to be able to mute microphone audio during a call.
Mic has high distortion from limiter.
IMO - These are not for me as I am often taking calls in a loud environment.
Makes sense. Definitely not best for those who need mic noise cancellation.
It always shocks me how very poor products get marketed for a specific use case and ACTUALLY sell while there are many others that aren't marketed as good with waaay better quality and less price point.
The ANC quality is very poor compared to 1more comfobuds pro or elecov clear which are 3rd the price
🤔 nowadays, battery is one of the key points to achieve best earbuds features..and here comes another one again..😔
Can't disagree here.
Working from home with rabid barking dogs. One can dream!
Gotta be 100% honest, I absolutely hate wearing these headphones. I've used all three of the sizes and theyre still so uncomfortable
Hi Michael, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Sorry to hear they're not comfortable for you. Comfort is a tough subject because everyones preferences and what they find comfortable differs.
I think the mic quality is still far from good (enough - for professional calls), way too distorted.
Agreed
So Logitech killed Jaybird to produce these.
Looks that way 🤷♂️
These are dissapointing earbuds... distance is extremely limited. Unanswered incoming Teams call knocks out the sound in the left earbud until I pull them out and put them back in my ears. I am so dissapointed in these its not funny. My reglar airpods connect better over a distance 3 times as far (40 ft). Tribits for $60 worked better. I am going to return these for a refund if I can....
Hi Michael, thanks for sharing your thoughts and sorry to hear they didn’t meet expectations. Hopefully more business grade earbuds come out!
Sounds very average in terms of mic quality.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We found the mic to be about the same as most of the higher end earbuds but you get the addition of better connectivity and integrations to computer call apps.
