As with many people, I am working from home during the pandemic and needed a good headset at a reasonable price. Wasn't willing to pay $100+ for the brand name headsets. I tested 5 different headsets before settling on this one: 3 over the ear sets w/ one headphone & 2 in-ear, including this one. The reasons I chose this Canambo unit was:1. Multipoint Pairing - I am using this headset with my laptop (for video calls) and my mobile phone. Almost all of the headsets allowed the user to pair with two different components; however, this was the only headset that not only paired, but allows the user to transition between the two components seamlessly without having to connect and/or disconnect one to use the other. For example, if I'm listening to a Youtube video on my phone and a video call comes in from my laptop, the headset automatically mutes the YT video and takes the laptop call without me having to do this manually. I do not have the dexterity or patience to switch from one to the other when needed, so the seamless transition that this headset allows is priceless, and my single top priority for a headset. At this pricepoint, I really didn't think I would be able to benefit from this feature, let alone have it work so well.2. Comfort - I wear this headset all day, no less than 8 hours, so whatever I chose had to be comfortable. This unit is surprisingly comfortable. Multiple sizes of ear buds were included, so I tried most and found one that worked best. Towards the end of the day, the back of my ear, where the thickest part of unit lays, is only slightly uncomfortble. I could always switch ears at that point, but it doesn't bother me enough to do so.3. Call quality - no complaints. Not a single person has asked if I'm using a headset or complained about background noise, but disclaimer, I have only used this in an indoor office setting, so no wind or other noises are competing with this headset. One of the headsets I tested had a weird humming sound when in standby mode. This was so annoying and definitely put that unit at the bottom of the test pile for me. No humming or weird noises coming from this unit when not in use. I'm wearing it now and it's completely quiet.4. Buttons - I love the independent on/off switch! It's so much easier than holding down a multi-function button for 3+ seconds to turn on/off like most of the units required. The buttons on the ear piece are large enough to access, but I do not use them often since I tend to reach for my mouse (laptop) and/or phone to mute or control volume.4. Case for traveling - nice touch! The other unit I tried did not include a case.5. Battery life is outstanding - I've used the unit on standby mode for 8+ hours with frequent calls throughout the day for 6 days straight and it's still showing 60% remaining. At this rate, I'll likely only need to charge once every couple of weeks, and it only takes a couple of hours to fully charge.Some cons:1. Distance - I can go about 15' from the source before the headset disconnects. I was hoping for better distance than that, but it could also be a function of the bluetooth capabilities of my phone and/or laptop as well, not necessarily the headset itself.2. No caller announcement available on this model, which I know some headsets offer. This could be inconvenient for those wanting to use this in a car.3. It would have been nice for the charging port to be covered. Would have made for a really water-resistant unit. Not a huge deal since the port is at the bottom of the unit, so hard to get water in there while wearing I would think.The multi-point technology that this unit offers is what sold me on it at the end of the day. At less than $40, I couldn't ask for a better headset. It literally checked all the boxes. I've only had the unit for alittle over a week so cannot attest to longevity, but so far so good. Thinking of buying a spare in case this one quits on me!

On the Internet as we know it today, you can search for about _anything_ and find 10's, if not 100's of options. You can also find about _anything_ you want at _any_ price point. So, when I went looking for a better option for doing my day to day calls - be it a Bluetooth headset or some type of speaker phone, I found exactly that. A LOT of options. The "name brand" items were expensive. Sure, people I know even told me "you have to get the Plantronics headset with base." But, that was like $150 - $200. Then, I saw a little add over on the side of the Amazon screen. It advertised a Bluetooth headset. It looked cool and professed the features I wanted (like comfort, noise suppression, sleek, a carrying case). So, I clicked on it and then actually ordered it - still a bit doubtful for all the reasons I stated above.This little headset is a rare find and well worth the purchase. I say rare because for $40 out the door, I just don't think you can beat it:1) It works well out of the box. Very quick and easy setup.2) I've had no complaints about any background noise.3) It has really good sound; I can hear the call clearly without issue.4) It has great range. I can walk all around the house.5) It has a nice little plastic case that fits well in my Daytimer.6) It connects to both my Phone and my PC for Skype calls, making it easy to switch between the two.7) Is supported by awesome customer service.I did contact Customer Service about one issue (that I'll mention below). They were _very_ prompt and _very_ courteous. I have no doubt that if this thing fails during its two year warranty (another bonus) that they will stand behind it.One minor item to note - when connected and active to both my iPhone XS MAX and my Dell Work PC, and I'm on a Skype call on my Dell, sometimes the headset will start announcing "Out of Range" then "Connected" in my ear. I see it disconnect then re-connect to my iPhone. Jenny at customer support when above and beyond to try to help. Alas, it must be something with two devices and one being an iPhone. I've decided it's really easy to just quickly turn off Bluetooth on my phone, then flip it back on when needed. Super quick and easy to do and continue to be ready, in the moment, to talk with my teammates (and loved ones of course).

I've paired this with an Avantree DG60 on a PC for video calls. The Conambo has been an all-day performer: meetings start at 9am and continue typically until 4pm; the battery handled almost 2 full days of that constant use before it needed a recharge; and a full recharge required about an hour, although I wasn't watching it all that closely so it could have been less than an hour. The audio and voice quality has been excellent for video calls, with the occasional Bluetooth 'stutter' and 'crackle' which I suspect was the DG60, not the headset; I re-seated the DG60 and the crackle disappeared. Regarding fit - I have a wired Jabra UC 250 that has been my best fit. I mention this for comparison's sake. Regarding the CVC 8 noise cancellation, I can't say I'm impressed: during one call, the mic picked up a normal, low key office conversation happening 30 feet away. I'll re-read the manual -- perhaps I've missed some setting -- but that was most unexpected. The Conambo's fit, given its design, is less comfortable and probably meant for smaller ears; the 'speaker' doesn't quite rest in my ear, so I regularly adjust it. The end-result is that I have to turn up the sound, since the speaker seems to rest outside my ear. It's possible to situate the speaker correctly, if you're patient, and frankly this is the only imperfection I've discovered in an otherwise quality headset. I'm biased in favor of the Jabra UC 250's form factor, in fairness. At its price point, however, the Conambo is certainly worth purchasing again, assuming the build quality holds up.

I have purchased this for my brother, he loves it. Very efficient, battery backup is just amazing as promised. Noise cancellation is best at this price. Thanks Conambo.
