I had purchased a Logitech Headset with microphone and the microphone was really bad. I then switched to a Jabra and the microphone was excellent. Sound quality is how much better than the Logitech.

This headset is comfortable, crystal clear sound, and the microphone works great, too. It also keeps out background noises, too. I'm very happy with this purchase!

My team uses these for every day use in a call center. These are very comfortable and everyone seems to like them. They have been durable so far with no installation issues.

These headsets work perfectly for our Skype/Teams/Zoom conference calls. There is none of the break ups you get from all the other types we have tried.

Pros:
- I really like the included pouch (even though it smells) because the headphone and dongle cables are protected from my two cable-eating cats.
- Great backup headset because it doesn’t need to be charged.
- I like the on-ear design of these headphones because they don’t isolate me from my surroundings. The marketing term “passive noise cancellation” is complete bunk with small on-ear cans like these. You need over/around the ear cups with a closed back to reduce background noise. Thankfully, these don’t live up to the hype, so I can still hear what is going on around me while using this headset.
- The speakers sound good at low volume. These are best for talking to people, not cranking tunes.
Cons:
- Pouch smells like a tire store. It does fade after a week but people sensitive to smells might not want to use the included case.
- Zero padding on the headband that rests on top of your skull. The headband is hard plastic and eventually it will hurt your head.
- Headset does not have mic monitoring. This means you can’t hear yourself when talking on the headset. Bummer, but this isn’t a deal breaker because the on-ear speakers don’t really isolate you from your surroundings.
- Flipping the microphone up into the vertical position does not mute the microphone.
- Audio is muted on two different Win10 laptops when using the USB dongle compared to plugging the 3.5mm jack directly into the laptop(s). Very noticeable. I didn’t have this issue on Mac OS 10.11.6. (see comments for workaround)
- The busy light does not work when using the 3.5mm connection on my phone. The busy light feature only seems to work when using the USB dongle.
Comments:
Windows 10 - I had to disable the Loudness Equalization setting on the Enhancements tab in Speakers Properties on both laptops. Even then the audio from the USB dongle is muted compared to using the 3.5mm jack on the laptop(s). I also have more granular control over the volume using the 3.5mm jack. One laptop recognizes the microphone and one doesn’t. This obviously depends on your hardware. The 3.5mm jack works with all our phones and tablets.
I can wear these about an hour before the lack of padding on the head band starts to hurt the top of my head. I have never owned or even used a headset without some form of padding on the headband. Nothing but hard plastic resting on top your head.
It is unfortunate when companies use materials that smell so bad. There is no reason this case should smell worse than the tires on my truck. It will fade but it still stinks.
Overall this is a decent headset but not as nice as other products for the same money.

I don't like these all that much myself. and not worth it to me. for the price, I guess I was expecting a bit more. I am not a fan for on ear headsets so not used to that. rather have over the ear myself. they were pretty light and comfortable as far as being on ear headsets go. they also do fold up nice and small and fit into a nice case.
sound was ok for music and movies. not all that for games. granted these are for skype use but again, for the price, there are a lot of options out there that have good mics and are more rounded.
I love the color (orange being my favorite).
but a few things for me that makes me give it a 3 star. again sound is not the best when doing anything else other then talking. they also do not have any inline button controls if just using the 3.5mm jack part. and the cord is not the longest. there is no indicator on the headset for what is right or left which the mic can swing all the way either way which again indicates these are built for talking not so much for music, movies and games.
For me, at the 110$ price tag, I would not suggest getting these. maybe worth at around 50 dollars in my opinion. you are better off buying a razer, or Sennheiser or whatever other brand out there over these. those at least would sound good with talking as well as do music, movies and games a lot better. and they cost the same or less.

Brand response from Jabra
Posted .
Hello cad8099,
Thank you for your review. The Jabra Evolve 40 is one of a wide variety of products that we offer for a variety of uses and price points. Some, such as this, are more business focused. We do have others with more of an active style in mind. You might be interested in the Jabra Move, it would help with several concerns you've brought up, including sound for gaming, as well as being wireless so you don't need to worry about cord length. In terms of your headset, the easiest way to distinguish right from left is that the right side has the cord connection. We do thank you for your detailed review and feedback.
