(NEW) Poly Voyager Focus 2 UC Headset with Stand

Updated review - 7/3/2024: At some point months after I started using it, the Focus V2 would constantly disconnect on calls only. I tried everything including just connecting to the phone and not the laptop at the same time. It does this wherever I am - on the road, in the city, in the country. No problem staying connected when listening to music/videos, etc. on iphone or laptop. The headset became useless for calls. I asked for a warranty replacement and after thorough testing, they gave it to me. Same problem. I bought another bluetooth headset out of necessity since I use this work, and it stays connected with no issues. Also, the old Focus V1 works fine, no problems staying connected. It's something to do with this model, so I can no longer recommend it, dropping from five star to one star. I used the Voyager Focus V1 for many years - it's been a great headset, and is still going strong. I needed another headset, however, and decided to try the V2 version. the first one I received would not connect properly via bluetooth. It would say it was connected, but then as soon as the caller answered it would disconnect - while still saying it was connected (some other reviews allude to this problem). I returned it for a replacement after a couple of weeks of frustration. The replacement has worked flawlessly since I received it almost three weeks ago - I've used it daily, usually multiple times a day. The key V2 improvement over V1 for me is that the sound quality is better - both what I hear and how others hear me. The sound is crisper, so words are a bit more intelligible. Again, V1 was already great - but V2 is the improvement I didn't know I needed. Add to that improved battery life and bluetooth range, with a fit that feels very similar to V1, and you have a winner. I noticed many reviews surfacing an issue with how V2 replaced the V1 tactile on/off switch with an electronic button. Poly must have addressed this, because my phone has the tactile on/off switch - it's totally fine, as functional as the V1 switch. I also notice some reviews complaining that the volume level function has changed to up/down buttons on V2. I have zero issues with this, it works fine, just as easy to use as on V1, although now I press buttons instead of turning something. I don't use ANC, so can't comment on how good it is versus the virtually non-existent ANC on V1 - it's definitely better, but I don't know if it's good enough for those who need this feature. All in all, I'm very happy with V2 and would buy it again if needed.
