The Jabra Speak 2 55 arrived in very simple packaging, environmentally friendly, all recyclable, no e-waste here.
Case is soft and reasonably protective, it does seem to work at keeping it from taking the worst knocks when it is in my bag.
Setup on day 1 was simple enough thanks to the USB Type-C cable, it was detected immediately by Teams.
Calls have been clear with no noticeable distortion, it has been able to filter out some of the background noise that is normal with working from home to the point where a few colleagues have noticed the clarity is better in comparison to my previous speaker.
The speaker is clear when listening to videos, its not the most broad range speaker but is does a nice job of adding some depth to the audio output, it makes me wonder how this compares to the Speak 2 75.
I've been using it out and about at offices that aren't equipped with conferencing tools and it has made a marked improvement to me not having to get out a headset and having a cable trail after me.
Speaking of cables the option to have Bluetooth as a fallback has been nothing short of great, I am able to connect my mobile phone to the speaker and use the phone for Teams calls, no one notices that I am using my mobile for the calls.
I installed the app to see what options are available and they seem fairly limited, apart from keeping the firmware up to date and choosing what "softphone" to be sync'd, was hoping to be able to get it have the soft keys work with Teams but this doesn't seem to work.
All in all the Speak 2 55 seems to be a good all rounder thanks to the Bluetooth support.
