A traveller’s best audio friend
Plantronics’ original BackBeat Pro headphones boasted a variety of features, good sound and good active noise cancellation (ANC). The second-gen headset manages to keep the great elements of the original, but the bulk and weight issues have been addressed.
The headphones feature a dark brown colour palette with a faux wood accent on the ear cups. There are mesh rings around each cup, which is where the headphone’s noise-cancelling mics are located.
On the left ear cup, you’ll find controls for playback, volume and a toggle for ANC. The right ear cup has a power/pairing slider as well as a big button for answering phone calls.
