New Yealink BH71 Pro, BH71 Workstation and BH71 Workstation Pro!

 

Today we will review the brand new Yealink Bluetooth headsets in the family of the BH71 Series, this including the BH71 Pro Headset, the BH71 Workstation and the BH71 Workstation Pro!

The BH71 headset is an over the ear only wearing style Bluetooth headset, covering one ear that can be worn on either side of the head. Thanks to its speaker twist of 90 degrees, can be easily put on either side, the microphone boom arm can be adjusted as desired as well once that the side had been preferred and the headset placed in position. One important mention that the BH71 headset takes this design to the next level and that would be truly appreciated by loyal users of this design of wireless headset is that, the headset has ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT, which means that the user can find the perfect fitting position of the headset for all day use, this means actually that the headset adjust to the user’s ear and not the way around as with the old designs from other competitors.

Yealink listened to customers of this design of headset and put a lot of effort in improving the interface for call controls, making them easier to locate and more user friendly as well, the headset will have only 3 buttons, the on/off key which works as Bluetooth pairing Mode as well located on the over the ear part of the headset, the call button located in the opposite end of the microphone boom arm which works as answer, end and to reject calls or use smart assistants as Cortana and the mute button which is easy to locate thanks to its red color on the boom arm. If wondering, where is the volume controls? They are located in the easy to twist and to module boom arm, this is more intuitive and easy to find compared with a bunch of buttons on the headset in which a lot of cases can’t see per the location and size of them. Way to go Yealink!

3 Different flavors, one secret recipe?

The BH71 headset comes in 3 variants, in the shape of the BH71 Pro, which is a Microsoft Teams certified headset with a talk time of up to 10 hours, plus 20 additional hours thanks to the included charging case which allows to transport the BH71 headset, charge it at the same time and transport the BT51 Dongle all in one convenient case. The case has a USB-C port for charging that offers fast charging capability. Thanks to its built in LED charging lights, the case will let you know when its fully charged or if need to get plugged in or charged to keep you going. On the headset, we appreciate its light weight and comfortable design, the 4 beamforming array microphones perform the noise canceling on the boom arm. The design of the charging case, allows to charge the headset inside the case or on the special magnetic mount when on standby of incoming calls when on the road. Get yours HERE.

Our second variant comes in the shape of the BH71 Workstation, this version of the BH71 comes with the well designed Bluetooth headset and with the Workstation BHB710. This setup is designed for users in need of their BH71 headset with not only their computer and Bluetooth device, but with their desk phone at the office as well. Thanks to the BHB710 station, the headset can charge in its designated charging port and it offers Qi wireless charging, a easy to use touchscreen that updates in real time thanks to the computer and allows customization of the headset from the base, plus you can modulate the volume of the BH71 headset from the base. The Workstation offers 3 USB 3.1 ports on the side, so the Workstation turns into a high speed USB Hub, so instead of taking ports out of your computer, it will be giving you extra ones!

The third variant that we will discuss can be considered the top of the chain from Yealink and one of the best offers for users in need of a wireless headset light and to be used in any environment and at any moment. This is the BH71 Workstation Pro, Yealink took the first 2 variants and put them together for this complete solution on telecommunications at your fingertips. The BH71 Workstation Pro comes with the BH71 headset, with its 10 hours of talk time, noise canceling microphones and amazing adjustable over the ear design. The Workstation BHB710 with its Built in speaker, touchscreen interface, Qi wireless charging and USB hub capability, AND the charging case of the BH71 Pro headset, which comes with the BT51 Dongle!

This means that a user can plug in their BHB710 workstation at their office and use the headset while there, but if they need to jump out of the office and take the call on a mobile device, they can keep using the BH71 headset with it and take the charging case with them for extra talk time and once the user gets to a different location if need to keep getting calls on their laptop for example, the charging case comes with the BT51 Dongle which is pre paired to the headset and its Microsoft Teams certified. This setup is the best of all the work personas examples in one single headset. The BT51 Dongle can be used as well with Yealink desk phones with USB port built in. Thanks to the USB-C charging port on the case, allows the user to get fast charging on the case and to leave the headset either inside the case charging or in its magnetic designated docking port letting to take the headset whenever a phone call comes in, and thanks to the Yealink USB Connect software, allows the user to enable the answer call as soon as the headset is undocked.

One of the best solutions for users in the market for best solution in just one package without breaking the bank, comparable speaking with another brands.

The BHB710 Workstation is fully compatible with PC and Mac and a nice touch is that compatible with Yealink’s external busy light (sold separately).

NOTE: The Speaker function on the BHB710 Workstation is enabled when the headset is in the charging port or the headset is off. The Speakerphone function enables built in microphones and transforms any desk phone or computer into a Speakerphone for small rooms, as it doesn’t offers advanced noise canceling microphones or Acoustic Shield Technology.

Yealink had made a HUGE advancement in my personal opinion with these 3 new headsets, as many users are always in need of a comfortable and easy to use headset that goes over the ear and thanks to the more adjustments from Yealink, now its the headset that adjusts to the user and not the user adjusting to the headset.
