Jabra Talk 45 Black Bluetooth Headset for High Definition Hands-Free Calls with Dual Mic Noise Cancellation, 1-Touch Voice Activation and Streaming Multimedia (Renewed)

This review is for the Certified Refurbished Jabra Talk 45's that are sold by Jabra Company Store. The very new-looking headet was shipped in Frustration Free bubble wrapped packaging and included a 2A output two-USB-socket car charger, one USB micro-USB cable, the headset, warranty information card, manual, and several ear pieces.Verified that the headset sounds clear with the test communicant hearing me clearly over a 5000 CFM ceiling fan. Range was solid at over 60 feet through four rooms one of which was a kitchen full of very modern appliances.Comfort of the inner ear piece and the outer ear loop is commendable. The Talk 45 felt stable and I had no concerns about the headset falling out of my ear, a pretty neat feature considering how discretely small the headphone is.At $34, this is an absolute steal. I'm strongly considering a second unit if sound quality is good with the top down in my Jeep.

Dont buy this unless you can speak Chinese. The virtual assistant voice is a Chinese woman. Its obvious where this thing is made. Never said anything about that when i make the purchase. Special thanks to Amazon for selling me a bluetooth headset that does not speak English.

I don't really use my phone without a headset. I had gone through 5 or 6 Plantronics headsets over the years, and had always stuck to 2 base models that I knew I liked. They never worked "flawlessly", but they were very reliable, were small to carry in a pocket...and thankfully comfortable. Those models aren't being sold anymore, so I had to look for another.This model filled the bill perfectly -- small in the same way, cheaper in price, and good battery life. The battery isn't a extensive as the plantronics ones I had previously, but it's still plenty to get you through multiple days with plenty of use. This will be my new brand & model for the future. :)

The product is working but speaks in chinese! Not happy with that, as i will now have to download firmware and attempt to change the language…if its sold in US it should be refurbished to english.

It's getting hard to find a straightforward bluetooth earpiece and this one does the job! It's super lightweight and sits easily in the outer ear.It shipped with the voice menu language in Chinese, but that was fixable by installing new firmware. Only problem was getting the correct information about how to do this. Jabra email support was good.

I bought 1 to replace a previous bluetooth that just quit. I liked this one so much, I bought a second one, one for my vehicle, one for my office. Very easy set up and my phone connects to whichever one is on at the time. The battery use time isn't too bad given the small size of the headset. Easily lasts for several days of use. Charges quickly. Charge overnight if you are using all day. I turn mine off when I'm not on a call, which helps with holding a charge and helps coworkers know that I'm not on a call. If they see the BT in my ear, it's hard to know if I'm on a call or waiting for a call.

This is the second one that I have bought after 5 years. The first generation had a different model name (Jabra Stealth) but it is pretty much the same as this one. I like it since it has a real on-off switch that does not accidentally turn on when placed in your bag or pocket, it easily stays in your ear, great sound quality, battery life. dependability, and styling. All at a rather reasonable price.

First, to be clear I'm reviewing one of the "Amazon Renewed" ones and not new retail. The renewed products are supposed to function like new however. I will be returning and will post an update.On the plus sides, the unit is very comfortable to wear, has excellent battery life, and is plenty loud which is a problem that I've had with MANY other headsets.On the down side, the sound quality and features are significantly worse than my Jabra ERA from years back. This blows my mind. How can a tech product from the same manufacturer have less functionality and poorer sound quality than one from years back? As an example of features, the ERA allowed one to change the voice personality...guy, girl, accent, persona, etc.. This is not possible with the Talk 45 even with the Jabra Assist mobile app installed. I personally found the mobile app BTW to be another negative and added no value; though it is necessary if you want text messages read back to you I believe. Most of the features of the app were unavailable for the Talk 45. The app will need access to some of your personal information and consume at least some additional phone battery. I don't know about you but I don't like to have what I perceive as poorly written apps that add no value like that on my phone...deleted.As for sound quality, the noise cancellation seems to be a complete gimmick. It had zero effect on my end and for the receiver of the call I actually had some complaining that this headset magnified the background noise so badly that they clam they cant bare to listen unless I was standing still (I was pushing a grocery cart).Note, I'm using the headset with a OnePlus 6T Pro McLaren on T-Mobile if either or both of these has anything to do with my bad experience with this product.
