Jabra Speak 510+ Portable Speaker for Music and Calls Black

I first encounterd the Jabra 510 while visiting a client site. I was impressed enough to research the unit. I was initially dissuaded by the cost, but decided to take a chance as I work form home and this is something I will use daily.I was not disappointed. The speaker/mic is plug and play. Sound quality is amazing - both on my end, and for those I am speaking to. I have NOT tested the blue tooth function as I work from a desk and have no need to move the speaker around - hence, no knowledge of the battery function.All controls are placed in a ring around the top surface, easy to understand and easy to use. I primarily adjust volume and mute when I don't want to be heard.The unit is also capable of linking to a cellphone, but I have not tried that at this point.Overall - I'm extremely happy with the Jabra unit.

This Performs way better than I expected. My organization frequently travels to meetings, often having to rent conference phones from the venue at ridiculous prices. I decided to give the SPEAK 510+ a try. It's purchase price is less than what we'd pay to rent a phone from a meeting venue. On it's first use, I set it up in the middle of a 24' x 18' conference table. There were about 30 participants in the room and several on our conference bridge. I paired this device to my iPhone, joined our conference bridge, all with no issues. People on both sides of the conference said audio was clear and undistorted. For the most part, the device was loud enough for everyone at the meeting to hear. Our last meeting lasted over four hours, and the battery on the speakerphone was around 70% when we finished. I'm really impressed.Pros:- Really small, portable- Works very well on USB or paired to a bluetooth phone- When paired with iPhone (possibly others), device battery level displays on phone- Clear audio on both sides of communication- Battery lasts forever- Easy to operate and understand... nothing complicated about this thing at allCons:- Volume could go a little higher, but is acceptable- takes several hours to charge fully, but the battery lasts a very long time

I've used this every day since my purchase. Works great on the daily conference calls and because I am in a "home office" don't have to worry about the volume

I have hearing challenges and am on conference calls throughout my day. Past devices allowed me to hear well, or the listeners to hear me, but I needed a solution to hear and be heard well. After a few hours reading reviews, I settled on this speakerphone - and I am thrilled to say I made the right choice! I was close to getting the Philips Wecall because of the 4 omni-directional mics, and then discovered the Jabra Speak 510+ includes a dongle that enables WIRELESS use with softphones from up to 300 feet away, approximately 15 hours of talk time between charges, sports omni-directional mics, noise filters to enhances call clarity, eliminates background noise, optimizes your voice while suppressing echoes... on and on. Bottom line, I like the look, simple operation, very identifiable lighting when you are on mute - and most importantly, the sound - AMAZING. I hear and am heard better on this speakerphone than anything I've used. Very pleased with this product. If you "live" on your phone for meetings, this is the solution for you. It's worth the money.

This is very handy and has become my go-to voice tool for Zoom. Like everyone, my days are filled with Zoom meetings.Set up is pretty easy. Insert the dongle into a USB port. It’s USB2 so keep that on mind is you’re a current model Mac user.Download their utility and it configures the device. Then you hid the bluetooth discover button until it flashes to add phones and commuters. The usb cable is the charger so you can use any usb power adapters and walk charge it.This has good clarity but it won’t blow you away with volume levels. I had to adjust microphone levels on my laptop to maximum because of complaints people couldn’t hear me.This works week as a speakerphone with a cell phone, too. A warning is on iphones, it tries to be the default speaker and switches the phone from other modes. This routine be bad but I left it in my kitchen after a conf call on my phone. Went to my office, and just grabbed my headset. My computer still connected to the Jabra so I had family room noise from the TV and please of “please MUTE” in zoom chat.So this is connected only to my computer now 😀

Super easy to setup. Seamlessly integrated with MS Office apps such as Teams. Cancels the background noise well without muffling your own voice.

My small law firm is using this speaker for Zoom hearings when a small group is in the same room (all but the computer linked to the speaker turn off their audio and mics) and others are online, and it works beautifully. I used it for telephone testimony during an otherwise in-person hearing and it was excellent even in a cavernous room; the court reporter said it was the best speaker she had seen.This speaker/mic is very easy to use; once it's plugged in to a computer's USB port, it becomes the speaker and microphone for that device. It also pairs easily with a phone via Bluetooth.I don't know about the battery power since it's usally connected by USB to my computer, but I used it for a two-and-a-half hour conference call recently and it was fine for that period.

Works well!
