The BackBeat Go 810 is Plantronics third active noise canceling wireless headset and sits just above the BackBeat Go 600 in the Go range. worthy heir to the BackBeat Pro 2?
The Backbeat Go 810 is a good choice if you’re looking for an active noise-canceling wireless listening companion under the $150 mark…especially if you’ll be using it primarily that way. Indeed, the sound reproduction is really interesting only in this use. Apart from that, it remains a complete and pleasant model to use. If you are unsure, take a look at the equally interesting HD 4.50 BTNC, or simply the Backbeat Pro 2 since it is now close in terms of price.
Strong points
- Very well balanced sound reproduction.
- Comfortable for most body types.
- Simple and pleasant to use.
- Complete controls and application.
- Good autonomy.
Weak points
- Rendering that would benefit from being more precise, more detailed.
- Doesn’t leave a lot of room to fit his ears.
- It takes the wireless connection and RBA to the max to get the best out of the headset.
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
The HD 350BT will not be the model that will revolutionize the Bluetooth mobile headset market. Admittedly, it brings some small welcome updates to the HD 4.40BT, but it does not fundamentally correct certain divisive defects of its predecessor from the point of view of comfort (the very narrow aspect of the pads, for example) or sound reproduction ( very pronounced lack of homogeneity between mids and highs…). We would more easily recommend the JBL Live 500BT or the Listen Wireless which, even if they are not paragons of comfort, are much more convincing in terms of sound performance.
