I purchased this unit for my home office. I am on Zoom and Teams meeting for most of my day. I had a headset for the longest time and by the end of the day my ears were sore. The switch this unit has been amazing. The quality its great and the participants of my meeting say the quality of what they hear is perfect. I like that the unit gives me a clear signal I am on mute. In addition, the ability to mute/unmute right on the unit vs looking for the mute and unmute in the Zoom or Teams app. You can pick up an inbound call and increase or decrease the volume with a touch of the unit. It is a little big for portability but not enough to make me stop taking it on the road with me.

This speaker phone is awesome. I was surprised how I only had to plug it in and it worked! No software/drivers etc. Just plug and play! The audio quality is amazing too.

I spent more on this one and hoped it would be perfect. I need it because my PC mic on my laptop is acting up. I selected this because it is Teams certified, reduces background noise and WiFi compatible. The WiFi is sketchy at best, doesn’t make it past 15ft. As long as I don’t go beyond my kitchen to grab lunch on a meeting, the WiFi is useful. It WiFi starts to cut out beyond 15ft from my laptop. Also it is glitchy when using the USB cord. The Teams feature does not always work properly so the mute button does not always work on the device. I’ve not figured out what causes it yet and it comes and goes. When it’s glitching, you need to use the mute button on the PC screen. Set up was simple, plug and play. It’s built well. Sleek design but solid. The size is about the size of a hand-held game device (switch). It charges quickly and holds a charge for a long period.

Perfect for Teams meetings. It has quality sound and a strong projection. I also used it to project through a podium mic. In a small meeting room it’s a perfect speaker phone for two-way conversations with 10 to 15 people (as long as people don’t talk over each other).

I have the Poly Sync 20+ and have used it mostly in small room settings of about 8 participants sitting around a large table--it far surpasses the poor microphone pickup from a laptop. What surprised me, however, is how well it performed in a larger setting. I used it a couple days ago for a meeting of 20 people in a large home living room. Folks were seated on a couple couches facing a coffee table and in chars arranged around and behind those couches. Clearly, an arrangement better suited for the PolySync 40 or 60. I tested my PolySync 20+ by asking remote participants whether they could hear a softspoken person seated roughly 8 feet away--they said very clearly. Another plus is that I could hand the meeting host the USB dongle to plug into their Mac (using a USB C adapter, as I have the USB A model that plugs into my own PC-based laptop) and Zoom automatically selected the PolySync 20 for microphone and speaker. That was helpful as the Mac user is uncomfortable configuring/selecting options in Zoom. The PolySync 20 battery was still going strong after the nearly 2hr meeting. Had to set the speaker to full volume but it was adequate.

For someone who works from home and tends to pace around when on calls, this has been a gamechanger for me. Cancels out noise as good as any of my headsets but doesn't require me to have something on my head. I am able to walk from my office to the kitchen without ending a work call. Quality is very good on both microphone and speaker. I used it every single day and couldn't go without it now.

I enjoyed this device for a short while. It's lifespan seems to be about a month, however. About a month after putting it into use it woke me up in the night with a constant repetition of "low battery" announcement, even though it was plugged into a powered USB port. Since then it has not worked at all despite the "Poly Lens" app showing 100% charge and my computer obviously recognizing the device. I can select it as my speaker, but the device provides no sound.I entered a support case online and the support team doesn't seem to know what to do or have any desire to rectify this.In my ONE response from support it was recommended that I charge the device with a "different cable and adapter". This is an odd request since the cable is integrated in the unit and can't be changed. So it would seem that support didn't take the time to even note which device I was requesting help for.VERY UNSATISFIED with this product.
