Plantronics has made a name for themselves as been a pioneer in business and consumer grade audio. The BackBeat Sense is no exception, following in the footsteps of its older sibling the BackBeat Pro. These Bluetooth Headphones are packed with a host of features that would put any other wireless headphones to shame. From the superman hearing feature found on the BackBeat Pro. To the excellent Bluetooth range of 330ft ( Class 1 Bluetooth 4.o). Built-in Smart Sensors automatically pause your music or media when you slip off the headphones, preserving battery life when they’re not being worn, then gently fading in when you put them back on. Intelligent pairing makes connecting and moving back and forth between devices fast and seamless; including pairing with two devices simultaneously. Whispered voice alerts provide important updates on battery life, connection status and more. Centralizing the headphones’ controls on one earcup makes the headphones easier to use and more intuitive, and battery life gets a serious boost with the ability to stream music and media for up to 18 hours on a single charge– in our use case its gone way past 24hrs and we are still using it.
The design of the BeakBeat Sense is one of style, elegance and simplicity; providing the user with something sleek yet easy to use. Now for the most important aspect, the audio. Plantronics didn’t rest their lures here either; the BackBeat sense is robust in sound with solid mids, good highs and well tuned lows. The Overall audio performance is great for the headphone sand one I would recommend. Why don’t you check out more on the new BackBeat Se4nse in our full video review below.
