The Anker PowerConf H500 is one best headsets in the market today because of its unique features, sturdy design, and having the latest sound technology making it completely useful during video calls, meetings, and even gaming.
It is compatible with the latest communication applications that are currently being used today such as Zoom, Google Meet, Skype, and Viber, and being wireless you will no longer have to worry about cable management during calls.
Anker PowerConf H500 Review
Perhaps its best-known feature is having noise-cancelling technology wherein it eliminates the background noise when you are on a call or in meetings. This helps to avoid any disruptions and makes sure that you will be able to properly speak and listen. The built-in mic is also capable of producing high-quality sound ensuring that you will always be heard.
Bluetooth functionality is also one of its key features allowing you to easily jump from one device to another without the hassle of managing connectors.
It also comes with a headset stand that is very durable and it also acts as its charging dock ensuring the user that the unit will always be a full charge when being used.
The stand unit is really helpful – just a 5-min charge time can give you 3-hours of talk time, making it very useful for people who are always on the go. Just set the unit down in the dock and its charging.
The H500 features an Intelligent mute switch. The microphone is automatically disabled by lifting the microphone arm and if you want to unmute it just put it back down, relieving you of the scrabble to find and press a button that can a hassle especially when the meeting is very hectic.
The overall construction and design are suitable for different types of ears. Wearing other brands of headsets I have had ear irritation and strain with extended use making it uncomfortable to use in longer durations. The Anker PowerConf H500 is designed to be durable and comfortable at the same time, the soft cushion padding for the ears is made with high-quality materials that are not allergic or irritating to the skin. I wore the H500’s for several 2hour+ conferences and never felt they were ‘crushing’ my ears!
They are compatible with almost every device whether it is a smartphone, tablet, laptop, and desktop as long as it has Bluetooth or USB connectivity the Anker PowerConf H500 can easily connect. Aside from being able to use in calls and meetings, it also doubles up as a music headphone for music lovers. They have decent audio reproduction and being able to fold the microphone up out of the way means you can switch to music playback very effectively.
PowerConf H500 Summary
Despite its excellent premium features, the Anker PowerConf H500 is not saddled with a premium price tag. The official price according to its official website it is priced at £119.99 which includes the charging stand while the package without the charging stand is slightly less at £109.99.
This is great value as far as I’m concerned when compared to other brands of headsets which are more expensive and yet do not offer the same features and durability.
Overall the Anker PowerConf H500 is a great product that has excellent features for an amazing price tag, making it one of the most reliable headsets on the market today. I hope this Anker PowerConf H500 review was useful.
