    Thank you for your test. I bought the version with a button for MS Teams. But I have no problem with this cable. I can roll it both clockwise and counterclockwise. But it's more convenient and there is more slack if I do it clockwise. I am positively surprised by the details and quality of the finish. The quality of the speaker and microphone is fantastic. Personally, I only miss the stand to set the Poly at an angle on the desk.

      That's a great point about the finish. The Sync 20 really feels like a premium product in the hand.

      great! May I ask a question? I really couldn't use this device just as I mic, with its speaker muted? Because I already have a sound system in the meeting room to receive the calling from zoom.
      Thank you so much

      @@josedrive In Zoom you can just select a different speaker. No problem at all.

      @ Thanks! So I'm gonna and just cut the sound speaker of the poly, by zoom configuration. Thanks!

    Thanks for this review and the comparison one you did against the older model. I have the older model and thinking about upgrading...the audio quality was significantly better on the Poly 20 based on your review. Curious, would my Plantronics BT600 USB adapter that I use on my Plantronics headphones work also with the Poly 20, do you know? Excellent videos! Thanks!

    •  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe that's the exact Bluetooth adapter I have in the video at 7:40 (It came with the Sync 20).
      Certainly the speaker on the Poly 20 is more powerful than the Calisto 7200. But I'm not convinced that the microphone sounds better. For me, it probably wouldn't be worth upgrading, just based on audio quality.

    Excellent review. Are you going to review Jabra speak 810?

    •  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the great feedback! The Speak 810 is currently not in the queue, but that's a great suggestion!

  • @josedrive

    Thanks for the video!
    The poly sounds perfect. But there's no way mute the speaker of the device and used It just a mic? Cause I already have a sound system to the room that's is going receive the zoom's calling. If not, could you recommend one device with thais quality where I can mute its speaker and use It as a room Mic?
    Thank you! Your work make a fantastic difference for us! ✌️

      You can just select a different speaker in your video conferencing software.

    I have a Jabra Speak 510 and finding the half duplex very annoying.
    Do you have 510 and compare to the sync 20?

    •  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I don't have any Jabra products at the moment. But on the Poly Sync 20 the full duplex seems to work great!

    Would this also work decently for watching movies, listening to music?

    •  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes it would! I've actually used this device to listen to music, live streams and TH-cam videos. The audio quality is really good for such a small device.

    • @elliem1
      @elliem1 ปีที่แล้ว

      @ thanks a lot. This really helps. And could this be connected to two devices via Bluetooth? Thinking of connecting it with the M2 mac mini and ipad pro

    How did you get the mic so robust and clear in the room? I've watched other videos and it's not even close.

    •  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It could be because I recorded the mic with Audacity. If you record it with Zoom, for example, you risk getting Zoom's audio processing on top of the device's own processing. Plus the acoustics in that room are pretty good.

      @ Thanks for getting back to me! I suppose it could be the room. I'm referring to this video th-cam.com/video/mXCVKncDlas/w-d-xo.html
      In his it sounds plain and normal like the other conference room mics I've been looking at. I don't think he's using Zoom. I saw him using OBS in another video. I can't imagine he left the limiter on though. I would appreciate any further thoughts.

    How does this work with teams and zoom?

    •  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You connect the device to your computer or phone. The you select it as mic and speaker.
