CONCLUSION

 

 

 

 

 

jabra speak 410b

   The SPEAK 410 by Jabra uses a wideband Hi-Fi DSP enabled speaker which actually performs very well when receiving calls from Skype and other VOIP suites, however it's not just as good when playing audio files which is not really surprising considering this is a speakerphone and not a dedicated media/portable speaker (although it still sounds a lot better than most low-cost portable speakers out there). The Omni-directional noise-filtering microphone also performed like a charm although during testing we did encounter some static on the other end, however that only happened twice and it could had been an issue with our internet connection. I would like to see a Bluetooth connection with the SPEAK 410 not only because that way you need not use cables at all times but also because let's face it, a portable speakerphone without Bluetooth does not seem like a product sold in 2013 (ok that's purely marketing but that means a lot to some people).

  

   At the time of its launch the SPEAK 410 by Jabra did not really come cheap, however today you can find it for just USD83.23 inside the USA (Walmart) and at around 85Euros inside the EU a price tag which is actually quite low for such a product (aimed mostly towards professionals and enterprise users). Certainly there are quite a few more complete speakerphones out there manufactured by some of the leading VOIP companies in the field but they cost many times more the price of the SPEAK 410 so i wouldn't recommend them for people on a tight budget. True the SPEAK 410 could have been better but if it was i doubt Jabra would offer it at the same price range. Overall the SPEAK 410 is a compact, low-cost VOIP speakerphone with good audio quality (for both ends) that basically performs as advertised and that's reason enough for us to give it our Golden award.
