ZONE WIRELESS HEADSET

-

Working remotely means video calls. Lots of them. And that means battling distractin­g sounds while trying to concentrat­e.

Logitech understand­s this, and its solution is the Zone Wireless headset, which enables you to control the acoustics of your environmen­t. Designed for noisy open offices, coffee-shop workspaces, home offices with barking dogs nearby, and wherever else you need to control the sound, this headset is going to be your new favourite work friend. There are buttons on the earcups for volume adjustment­s, to play or pause the sound, connect to Bluetooth, and control the active noise cancellati­on (ANC). You can mute the mic via a button, or simply rotate it upwards and it automatica­lly mutes itself.

The earcups themselves are comfy, sitting on top rather than covering the ears, a feature that improves (passive) noise cancelling.

While chargeable using a cable, they are also Qi wireless charging compatible. Expect up to 14 hours of run-time (with ANC activated). They connect to Logitech’s Login Tune mobile or desktop app, giving you access to more sound-customisin­g features.

If you already make use of other Logitech products (such as a mouse, keyboard or speaker set), the included USB receiver lets you use all these devices simultaneo­usly, without having to sacrifice one to connect to another.

With a set of these on your head, you’re assured of a quieter, more productive workday.
