Manual of product B650-XT
Editorial note
The BlueParrott B650-XT stands out with its impressive battery life, offering up to 36 hours of talk time and 600 hours on standby, making it an ideal choice for long workdays or extended listening sessions. Its lightweight binaural design at 216 g ensures optimal comfort, allowing for prolonged use without fatigue. The active noise-canceling technology is a major asset, providing an immersive listening experience even in noisy environments. Additionally, the Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity allows for quick and efficient connection to two devices simultaneously, adding valuable flexibility for multitasking users. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The weight of 216 g may be perceived as heavy for extended use, potentially causing discomfort during long sessions. Furthermore, the lack of over-the-air (OTA) updates can be inconvenient, as can the 3.2-hour charging time, which may seem long for those seeking speed. Finally, while the audio quality is satisfactory, it is not optimized for high-definition voice, which may disappoint those who prioritize vocal clarity. In summary, the BlueParrott B650-XT is a robust and high-performing headset, perfect for those seeking extended battery life and comfort, despite some limitations regarding weight and system updates.Score details
