The specs say Voyager 5200 has the USB adapter to use with PC. The Explorer does not say that.
I have two of the explorers and love them. They’re nothing fancy, just light and comfortable (I forget I’m wearing it) and decent sound and battery. I mostly use them for listening to news radio and podcast. But the small amount of talking on the phone with them has been fine too.
Only quirk I’ve noticed is about half or third of the time when I turn them on they say they’re connected but the phone disagrees. But if it just turn it off and on again it connects fer reals.
One small thing I like: has an actual physical power switch, rather than some button you have to hold down. (But not too long or it will pair!) There’s never any question if it’s on or off.
One thing I should add: it has limited button functionality. Besides the dedicated volume buttons (which I like) it only has one, and I think that will only answer or hang up the phone. Not even pause audio or call Siri, which most BT headphones do. (Least I haven’t figured it out.) But for price I’ve paid and limited stuff I use them for it’s hasn’t bothered me.
I have the Voyager 5200 and work from Home. I use this when i am working from noisy places such as Starbucks where the noise canceling feature is pretty darn good. I have regularly taken work calls thru the headset in a loud Starbucks and the person on the other side could not tell. If you buy this, and want to see how effective it is, record a voice memo, and that will give you a feel.
Love the voyager. Have owned several due to my ability to lose small things. Battery life is great and they last forever when I manage to hold onto them! Tempted to pick one up just to have an extra.
I walk around downtown where there is always all kinds of random noises including yelling homeless people and Voyager definitely keeps my voice audible without scaring the family back-home.
Hey- anyone know if this comes with the typical plastic case that you can plug your cord into and charge? Holds the USB adapter usually? I have an older model like that which was a company/corp one with a lot of things but that plastic plug in box - i like it.
Thx!
Anyone? Really prefer the case it should come with I believe
It does not come with the charging case. It can be purchased separately.
Love the voyager, but hesitate to buy refurbished. I bought one once and it only lasted a few weeks.
