Conclusions The Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 headphone are a major upgrade over the original. They're smaller, sleeker, and sound better, with improved noise cancellation technology.

Affordable for wireless, noise-canceling headphones; Full, balanced audio; Solid noise cancellation

Noise cancellation isn't quite on par with Bose

The second-generation Plantronics BackBeat Pro 2 headphones show a device maturing – fixing a few mistakes made in the past while continuing to offer sound quality that holds up well to the competition.

Incredible 24-hour battery life; Multi-point Bluetooth; Amiable sound

Bass overwhelming at times; Styling not for everyone

I tested wearing the BackBeat PRO 2 daily while I walked to work and so far I'm loving it. The audio quality is pretty good, it's comfortable to wear, and the noise cancelling helps in shutting down noises so I can be fully immersed in my music or podcasts.

Solid performer, solid sound, great build, insane battery life, super noise canceling and just under $200USD yields a must buy.

The noise canceling works really well for this price point; sound is amazing with a good amount of bass; well made and good feel/comfort

There's very little to complain about here; the design does take some time to get used to and we do wish they were foldable but that's about it

The sound is really crisp. Im happy with this purchase so far.

I ordered these to replace my aging (but still useful) Sony MDR-1RBT headphones. Here are my thoughts: The good: Very comfortable - they feel much lighter than the Sonys and I feel as though I could wear them all day.

"Looking for something that is slightly more affordable than the QuietComfort 35 I came across these costing almost ￡100 less. Build quality is excellent there is a good range of adjustability making them suitable for all sizes of head.

Good ANC; Good build quality

Plantronics claims that the wireless range is up to 100 meters. It is absolutely not true. Such a big wireless range was one of the reason I bought this headphone. I paired it with me phone and left the phone in one room. The rooms around are quite thin and they were made of plasterboard.

Great head set. Works well. Connects to Bluetooth effortlessly. Good sound. Noise cancelling okay, but could be better. But at this price, a very good over all performance.

Bought it a month ago to replace my sons headphones and he loves the sound and how user friendly it was. The battery life is another feature. He rates as the best headphone he has ever owned!
