Each of my colleagues said that my voice quality was poor. I couldn't believe that so I tested it by myself and what should I say ... they all are totally right. The microphone quality is garbage. Compared to my 30€ Superlux Headset, it's a total waste of money. First I thought it was a OSX issue. Then I switched to my Win10 system and the same annoying quality. This is not what I hoped to receive for 320€. Let's say, you create an upgraded version, maybe the Evolve2+ where all those issues are fixed, I would definitely try it again. At first, it's a really great idea to have a microphone arm on this headset which can be folded or hidden while just listening to music or watching a movie. Great idea to combine business and private use-cases. But then this construction ... that can't be your answer Jabra! The speaker maximum input power of Jabra Evolve2 85 is 50mW while the Jabra Evolve2 75 has 30mW. You must not exceed these power caps so as not to spoil the headset. But the Jabra Evolve2 85 can take more power input than the Evolve2 75.
Most of my clients also call my cellphone, rather than my desk phone and as we continue remote work we may move the company to call service through the Microsoft Teams solution. Right now, I pair my Surface Pro 6 with Jabra Direct and my primary cellphone with Sound Plus to the Evolve2 85. Whether calls come through Teams or my cellphone, one headset is there and ready to help me respond. The arm doesn't stay in the lowest position ... it just moves a little bit upwards, what results in a slightly reduced quality. Some of that is due to the insane mic array and the design aspects required of having a seamlessly foldable boom. But some of that is related to the software and headset integration. Having UC and Microsoft Teams certifications come with some firmware hurdles and licensing costs. The software side of the equation is also pretty well thought out. I’ve used the Sound+ app for other Jabra headphones—particularly the Elite true wireless earbud series. Most of the same features are found here, like a powerful five-band graphic EQ, some thoughtful presets, and even a way to customize these settings for different parts of your day. However, when Jabra introduced the Evolve2 85 as a successor to the Evolve2 75, many who knew the 75’s capabilities were excited to see how Jabra would manage to upgrade an already incredible headset. But, only Jabra can outdo themselves!
For me it's not worth the 320€ and certainly not the 540€ suggested retail price. I would keep and like it if the microphone quality and the boom arm would be way way better, but this is a no-go for a premium business headset in this price range. The problem with the bluetooth protocol ... meh, you didn't made your homework Jabra. The rest of the story is pretty typical here for office-style headsets. You can connect these headphones via Bluetooth 5.0 and access all of the headset controls you’d expect that way. You can also connect them via 3.5-millimeter aux in a pinch.
The Jabra Evolve2 85 has more certifications and compliance with more UC platforms than the Evolve2 75 to put itself higher and offer more versatility to professionals. Whether you work from home or in an office, Jabra’s products definitely cover you. They took biometric measurements of hundreds of heads to create a perfect design that adjusts to fit every size and shape. Then, they added soft memory foam ear cushions to make it supremely comfortable; so comfortable, you'll forget it's even there. Finally, they assembled it using durable, premium materials. It's comfort that's in a class of its own. While you can use the left ear cup button to toggle between sound modes, you can also do this in the Moments section of the smartphone app. Battery percentage is also shown in the smartphone app. Daily usage experiences and conclusion
SPECIFICATIES
The two headsets are from the same family so they will share a lot in common. The Jabra Evolve2 75 is made with a dual-foam leatherette cushion and a metal slide arm, while the Jabra Evolve2 85 is covered in ultra-soft foam in a matching leatherette. Both of them are equipped to offer comfort to users, but the Jabra Evolve2 75 has a better firm grip. Let’s dive deep into a full review of both headsets to help you make a decision about which one is better for your audio needs. Jabra Evolve2 75 vs. Jabra Evolve2 85: Side-by-Side Comparison Something that’s tough for over-ear headphone manufacturers to truly get right is finding the proper clamp and foam to wrap around your ears. Higher-end manufacturers in the space—like Sony and Bose—usually give you all the softness and comfort you’re looking for, but lower-end headphones tend to skimp here, making them less than comfortable. The two headsets are on par on many fronts, like their design and features, sound, audio quality, and connectivity. The power disparity between them is negligible. However, that does not mean Jabra was clueless about making a superior headset only to have the same features as a former product. The Jabra Evolve2 85 has better energy efficiency and instills more confidence in the user about the battery life and power consumption.
Jabra Evolve2 85 comes in two variants, Unified Communications and Microsoft Teams Certified. There is only one version of Jabra Evolve2 75. De Evolve2 modellen met Microsoft Teams-certificering ondersteunen Microsoft Teams als een plug-and-play-ervaring. De plug-and-play-ervaring biedt de volgende voordelen: They know that being heard and understood with absolute clarity keeps your calls seamless and professional. So, they took the incredible call performance of world-leading Evolve Series, and they made it even better by building in 10 microphones(yes, 10), powered by that advanced digital chipset they keep talking about, for outstanding call quality, every time. Because when you're making an important call, clarity is everything. Jabra set up a great partnership with Microsoft on launching a version of this headset with official Teams support. The Evolve2 is certified for Teams as a plug-and-play experience. As listed by Jabra, this experience includes: The best way I can describe the Evolve2s is that they are a work-oriented pair of headphones that happen to do music very well.

With premium materials, multi-mic-supported active noise cancellation, and a host of features that make the 85 friendly for both work and play, it might be the best all-around over-ear headset for business-oriented users. I spent a few days with my pair to see how they made the transition in and out of my workday. It’s impressive just how much battery life Jabra has managed to get in these otherwise pretty sleek headphones. It’s odd when you think about it, because while these headphones seem oriented to your desk where a charging cable is within reach, you’ll rarely need that charging cable. But, because the headphones need to be ready to use at a moment’s notice for phone calls, it does make sense. It seems like Jabra has taken a subtler approach with the ANC on these headphones, and that makes it more capable and less uncomfortable for sensitive ears than something like Apple’s AirPods Max. To be fair, you won’t be amazed by the amount of noise cancellation, and I do think that Jabra’s “commute” vs. “office” vs. other customizable modes in the app is overselling the capabilities a bit. But in general, this worked well for me as an all-day work headset. They've built this headset with powerful leak-tolerant 40mm speakers. Factor in advanced digital chipset and the latest AAC codec, and your music will be sounding better than ever. Good things come to those who wait. This is the audio experience you've been waiting for.
