CONCLUSION

 

 

 

 

 

 

voyager pro hdb

   Although both the previous Voyager PRO+ and the PRO HD are identical in design the same does not apply for their performance since i both the received and transmitted audio quality of the Voyager PRO HD is perhaps the best I’ve ever heard from a Bluetooth headset, at least from an single earpiece one (not stereo). Certainly i can't claim to have the best and most accurate/sensitive ears in the world but i use Bluetooth headsets on a daily basis mainly for testing purposes so i can tell when a specific unit is better or worse than another one. Audio quality aside the Voyager PRO HD features a smart sensor which unless you are wearing the headset it sends all calls to your cellular phone instead. This is a very useful feature but at first it had me puzzled since i would answer the call from the headset without wearing it and it would transfer to the phone itself. Regarding the actual range and battery life of the Voyager PRO HD i only have good news since the real talk time of the unit actually surpasses the 5 hours mark (almost by 20 minutes) when used with the audio turned all the way up, something that not many headsets in the market are capable of, while the actual range of the headset was roughly 9m. Plantronics has also bundled the Vocalyst automated service with the Voyager PRO HD (allows you to send e-mail, texts, and even tweets by just using your voice) which i have to admit i didn't actually use during the entire month of testing.

 

   At this exact moment in time the Plantronics Voyager PRO HD Bluetooth Headset has dropped in price and so it can be purchased for around USD80 inside the USA and 60Euros inside the EU from Amazon. Even at the initial price tag of USD99/99Euros the Voyager PRO HD was an excellent choice for people who put audio quality, comfort, ear stability and battery life before all else so with the current price cuts i really think it's a catch. I am well aware that the somewhat bulky size of the headset may not appeal to some people but for professionals the design can't really get any better than this. Bottom line the Voyager PRO HD Bluetooth Headset is amongst the top ones in the market currently (if not at the top) and that's why we are awarding it with our Platinum award.
