Wanted to buy these for awhile, they finally came on special so I did. Best buy in years. These work like a charm at home or in the gym they are comfy and durable. The noise cancelling is not that great but it is noticeable but it is not as good as my Sony MDR770 noise cancelling was.

These are great, especially for the price. I use them daily for several hours and they lasted just over a week on the first charge. Sound and volume is awesome and the earcup controls work well

Plantronics has made the new BackBeat PRO 2 more attractive to own thanks to reduced size and price of S$319 (the SE version is S$379). Its audio balance may not be the most accurate for audio purists but is easily likable by consumers with bright forward treble and seismic bass.

If you are looking for a solid pair of noise canceling headphones that have intuitive controls, an extended range, amazing battery life, that fold flat for travel, and that have fantastic audio playback, you should look no further than the Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2.

Fold flat for travel and storage; Active Noise Cancelling; Extended wireless range; All controls are easy to understand and easy to operate from the ear cups; Up to 24 hours playback via Bluetooth; Music pauses or resumes when you remove or put on headphones; Open Listening mode allows you to hear...

Nothing - the Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2s work as promised; and they sound phenomenal

The market for wireless noise canceling headphones has been booming over the past couple of years. One day, we were struggling to find one pair of headphones that offered both Bluetooth connectivity and noise cancelation, the next there were more choices than we could fit in one Amazon result page.

Weight, comfort, ergonomics The BackBeat Pro 2 is lighter, less bulky, and fits better around the head; It's more comfortable to wear for extended periods than the BackBeat Pro, Premium feel The design and materials all look more premium than the first-gen Pro, less plasticky, with softer leather...

No NFC Unless you buy the more expensive $250 Special Edition; you don't get NFC to facilitate pairing; Controls The playback controls don't have a lot of tactile feedback and the volume wheel takes a little getting used to; Noise cancelation It's good; but still not on par with other brands on the...

If you're in the market for a pair of over-ear headphones, our recommendation is definitely a pair of BackBeat Pros. The sound quality, noise cancellation, comfort, and convenience features are second to none. They're all pretty similar with slight modifications.

Sound incredible; Noise cancellation is lightweight but terrific; Open-listening mode is convenient; Sensors pause and play music when headphones are applied or removed; Fantastic range with Class 1 Bluetooth; 24 Hour battery that seems to last forever; Micro-USB charging; Easy to access controls,...

Very basic audio cable included - no controls/mic built-in; No app; Not collapsable

We never doubted that Plantronics would deliver a high-quality product at a great price, but were skeptical about whether or not the original BackBeat Pro could be improved enough to warrant a Special Edition.

The sequel to one of my favorite wireless headphones has finally arrived from Plantronics in the form of the BackBeat PRO 2. Its been over two years since the PRO made their debut with follow ups such as the SENSE which was on-ear and the revised PRO+ which added PC support.
