User questions & answers

Question:	Do you need to have the cord plugged in to use the Mic or is the Mic part of the headset itself
Answer:	I replaced once every half year. I love this pillow, and I will definitely buy it again.
Question:	The ANC ON/OFF switch seems to have no effect (vs PWR OFF) in a noisy environment. 'Open Mic' does work, however. Are my headphones defective
Answer:	Check your orders for return info.
Question:	How is the microphone quality when using bluetooth? I need the person on the other end to hear me clearly and well when using this as a BT headset
Answer:	I put it out side to air out and put in the dryer on low with a dryer sheet and the smell is gone after a couple of days. It was awful when I first got it but fine now.
Question:	Should I go for Plantronics BackBeat PRO or Bose QC
Answer:	I don’t think it will. There’s little stuffing in it you can fluff up pretty easy. I just give mine a little shake when I feel it needs to be fluffed

Question:	Using with a samsung tabA what can I expect for range. will i get the 100 meters
Answer:	Hello Keith, most smartphones and tablets have a class 2 Bluetooth transmitter that will give you up to 33 feet of range with a direct line of sight. If you have a device with a class 1 Bluetooth transmitter that supports extended range it should provide your BackBeat PRO 2 with up to 330 feet of range. If you are unsure as to what kind of range your tablet will provide we recommend that you contact your tablet's manufacturer for confirmation.We hope you find this helpful, please don't hesitate to contact our customer care group at 800-985-9815 if you have any other questions regarding our products!
Question:	Someone at work plays his music too loud with a subwoofer. Will these headphones eliminate the low frequency thump of the co-workers thumping stereo
Answer:	Hello saxtech, Active Noise Cancellation usually works best to remove background noises that are low to moderately loud and constant (for example, a nearby fan blowing air or an air conditioner). Sudden and loud noises might not be effectively reduced by the headset's ANC feature.We hope you find this information helpful, please don't hesitate to contact us at www.plantronics.com/support if you have other questions!
Question:	How do these compare to beats' studio wireless line? do the offer the same/better sound quality
Answer:	Well, I owned Beats Studio Wireless and recently purchased this (Plantronics Backbeat PRO 2). There is a lot of difference in sound quality. Let's try to explain. If you are a Basshead you definitely have to choose BEATS STUDIO WIRELESS. The bass in these headphones is powerfull but this impacts the other range of sound (medium and high). I mean, if you use it to listen music like hip hop or something with a lot of bass, the Beats are fine. On the other hand if you need a balanced sound where you can hear the details of the music you should choose PLANTRONICS BACKBEAT PRO 2. Speaking of the other features: ANC beats is better (although no for me because I feel that I am submerged in a pool and the pressure isn't comfortable for me). The auto stop / play function does not exist in the beats studio, the OPEN LISTENING does not exist in beats studio, the CONTROL BUTTONS are more friendly in plantronics backbeat pro 2, BATTERY LAST beats studio 12 hours, Plantronics 24 Hour, COMFORT Plantronics is more comfortable) In fact it can rotate 90 degrees making it very comfortable when you put it on your neck, MULTIPOINT CONNECTION does not exist in Beats Studio Wireless. This feature allows you to connect two devices at the same time and switch between one and the other, in addition, if, for example, you are in your computer listening to music and a call come to your phone, the music is paused and you can answer the call, at the end of the call, you just need to play back to the music again. FOLDABLE, Plantronics is not foldable. CASE HARD, Plantronics does not have a hard case, it has a bag (it is sturdy). (I apologize for my spelling mistakes, I'm learning to write in English)
