Logitech P710e Mobile Conferencing Speakerphone

I read several reviews that stated that audio was not up to par or that this unit did not perform well. Having held several conferences now using this speakerphone, I would like to offer my observations.Audio quality: The largest room I've used this so far seats about 60 people. The speakerphone was set near one end of the room and had no problem picking up the voices from anywhere within and attendees could hear the speakerphone from anywhere within the room.Ease of use: Simple process of binding and operation. The only issue I have noticed is that there isn't a good means of determining battery charge level.Battery use: I ran the speakerphone for over five hours without any issues. I'm not sure how much charge remained but it was still running strong. My cell phone that I was using was at about 70% remaining charge when I concluded the conference so I don't think there is a heavy power toll for using the speakerphone.Connectivity. During one of the conferences, I did have occasional sporadic cutouts for both directions of audio. I believe that this is the fault of the cell phone's connection to the tower and not a fault of the P710e. If your cell signal is poor, then the results will be poor. I cannot see how anyone could blame Logitech for that. With regards to the connection between phone and speakerphone, it was rock solid.Portability: This has a small footprint, is easily transportable, does not need power if properly charged and can be placed just about anywhere.Audience response: I had several people approach after the meeting to ask about this unit. They were impressed by its quality, performance and price. They ordered their own sets.I would recommend this item. Its small size and awesome performance make this a great purchase. I carry this to meetings that I am attending and have used it once to assist where the presenter was going to use a cell phone alone as the speaker phone (the hard line was down). This little guy helped tremendously.

I have been looking for a good bluetooth speakerphone to use with my iPhone for quite some time now, after doing a lot of research I tried the Phillips WeCall bluetooth speakerphone and although I really wanted to love it I just could not get it to work. I could hear the person on the other end perfectly, but they could not hear me. I even sent it back for a replacement and the second one did not work as well. This lead me to purchase the Logitech P710e, I ordered it from Amazon (great service as usual) and what a difference. Works perfectly, sound on both ends is crystal clear. My one complainant with the iPhone is my speakerphone is not loud enough in most cases, the logitech corrects that problem in a big way. When I asked who I am am talking to on the call they say I sound like I am on a land line phone not a speakerphone. You also do not need to be right on top of the speakerphone to work, which makes it very useful when you have multiple people on the call. I read some complaints about the buttons on top of the unit, but I have not had any issues. They do require a softer touch but once you get use to them they work great. I also use this as a bluetooth speaker to play music from my iPhone and it works quite well, I wouldn't say its as good as a Bose sound dock, its not meant to be that, but I use it as background music while I am working and it sounds pretty good, plus its very portable. The attached USB chord, which wraps up and stores on the unit is a very nice add (never have to worry about losing it). Charges quickly and seems to last a long time. Bulit in stand for your phone is also a nice add. Overall I am very happy with this unit and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for the convince of a bluetooth speakerphone that is portable and has excellent sound quality.

Love Love Love this Speakerphone! I was hesitant buying because I have tried MANY different units on the market, including units not designed for conference calls but marketed with "bluetooth support". I work from home office and also travel and needed a unit that is portable and can be used basically anywhere.Pros - Great size, good battery life for portable travel. Speaker quality is amazing for what it is, you still sound like a cell phone call, but it sounds REALLY good for a cell phone call. Obviously some DSP magic happening in the background to improve audio. Bluetooth connectivity has been rock solid and NFC connection is really nice to tap and connect.Cons - Microphone is in the front of the device so doesn't give you much "surround" sensitivity. You need to be in front of the mic to get good pick up. I don't mean sitting in front of with your mouth on top of it but I mean you can't be behind it and expect the caller to hear you really well. Touch buttons are really nice but I am slightly color blind and the green and red hangup call buttons could have some small text below them, also dont light up in dark room so you can't see the answer/end buttons at all, not a big deal.Asks for v2 - I would really like to see a full mic arrangement or at least a way adjust sensitivity on the microphone itself. I think better placement of the mic to be moved to top of device instead of lower right hand corner would be better (why is it where it is now? Kind of odd location). Two microphones would be better also vs single mic. Noise cancellation could be enhanced also.Overall - Great device for first release, I know Logitech will improve it. I have taken close to 40+ hours of calls in 2 weeks with this and had only one call where I needed to adjust my position for the caller to hear me better (sometimes I forget). So nice to drop my over the head headset!!!! Thanks Logitech!
