What Buyers Say
Jabra S450-XT
70 out of 100 medium confidence 11 reviews
The BlueParrott S450-XT headset receives mixed feedback. Users appreciate its comfort, good connectivity, and value for the price, but note issues with duplex call quality, narrow ear cups, and noise cancellation that is more isolation than active. It works well for general office use and is compatible with Microsoft Teams and Zoom, though some find it less intuitive to connect and experience occasional static.
