I know it uses BT. How does it work with work laptop and team calls?

I am currently using a wireless game headphone for team calls, wonder if this could perform at least the same.

Edit:
Found many negative reviews on Amazon about annoying beeping when mic is muted in team calls. Hard pass.

yeah, the new model Opencomm2-UC has a dongle that is suppose to get around the mute beeping issue.

I have two of these, one for work and one for home. They work well. The boom mic makes a difference. However, I prefer the Pro mini model because the mic is almost as good, and they're more comfortable.

Is that problem specific to OpenComm?, I've been using OpenMove for Slack and Skype, no one has ever complained. I bought my wife OpenComm long time ago but she rarely use that and had not mentioned any issue.

Thanks! I love my Aeropex so much I'm willing to shell out for a version with a boom mic.

I tried all the coupons for this. HSN2023 is the only one what works with electronics.

I have a pair of older Aftershocks Trekz Air headphones. They are one of the best, most useful purchases I've ever made. Still going strong after multiple years of daily use.

I had the beeping issue on Teams as well, and this solved my problem (from Reddit):

Here's the fix for Windows 10:

1. Right click the volume button in the start menu and select "Sounds" 2. Click on the Recording tab, and select your microphone. Click "Properties" 3. Go to the "Levels" tab and you might see that your headset is muted by default for some reason. Unclick it.

Here's how to get there in Windows 11:

1. Right click the volume button in the start menu and select "Sound settings" 2. Scroll all the way down and select "More sound settings" 3. Click on the Recording tab, and select your microphone. Click "Properties" 4. Go to the "Levels" tab and you might see that your headset is muted by default for some reason. Unclick it.

Thank you for the tip. I placed an order to try.
