Plantronics, Inc (NYSE: PLT) today unveiled the new Voyager 835 Bluetooth headset featuring three advanced noise cancelling technologies that together provide superior clarity and natural voice on both sides of a conversation.
The new Voyager 835 offers Plantronics' Dual-Mic AudioIQ, a combination of its proprietary DSP algorithm which intelligently optimises audio levels and fidelity on both sides of a conversation, with precisely configured dual microphones to significantly reduce background noise. The inclusion of dual-microphones allows the Voyager 835 to accurately isolate voice signals: one microphone captures voice as the second microphone identifies background noise and removes it.
Combined with Plantronics' WindSmart technology, which filters and reduces wind distortion, the Voyager 835 delivers comprehensive noise-cancellation benefits without over-processing audio, so voices sound natural during conversations.
“The Voyager 835 is designed to defeat wind and other background noise in a variety of real-world environments, such as a busy city street, crowded restaurant or car with the air conditioning blowing,” said Renee Niemi, general manager and vice-president, Mobile & Entertainment for Plantronics, Inc. “By focusing on everyday call scenarios, Plantronics developed a headset that provides exactly what consumers want: brilliant, true-to-life audio on both sides of a conversation that doesn't succumb to noisy environments and never sounds unnatural.”
Ultimate comfort and ease-of-use
The new Voyager 835 weighs in at less than 12 grams and meets Plantronics' strict acoustic fit criteria with contoured, universal-fit eartips that rest gently on the wearer and channel sound directly into the ear canal for improved receive clarity. A slim yet highly durable ear-loop secures the headset without discomfort and does not interfere with eyewear.
The Voyager 835 headset is designed with simple-to-use volume and call answer/end controls. Another benefit of the Voyager 835 is the inclusion of multipoint technology, which permits users to take calls from any two Bluetooth phones - like a business and a personal phone - from a single headset. Talk time is up to five hours, stand-by time up to five days and multiple charging options are available, including an in-car kit.
“Plantronics has a 46-year history of innovation across all facets of sound performance - from noise-cancelling microphones to DSP algorithms and wind technologies. The Voyager 835 is a reflection of our commitment to surpassing customer expectation with products that deliver superior sound, quality and comfort,” added Niemi.
