The New Yealink
BH72 Headset Reviewed

Equally at home in the office or on the road the Yealink BH72 is a Bluetooth headset which has been lovingly crafted and intelligently built so as to provide a comfortable pair of headphones whilst providing enterprise level collaborative features.

We have been lucky enough to put a unit through a testing workday to see how it performs under various conditions.

Well, the BH72 and I got off to a good start, I removed the headset from the box and plugged in the deskstand. I fished out the small USB dongle, I think it is the BT51-A and found a free USB slot on my PC. A long press on the on button on the right hand earpiece brought the headset to life and I was greeted with two messages immediately : “your headset has 27 hours of talk time” and “headset connected“. Painless and speedy set up is always a good thing.

First thing I did was to open up Spotify and hit play. Pleasurable bass and treble merged into a good audio experience over a mix of genres. More of a good start. The headset delivers rich audio. Always a positive.

A Select Playlist

So, I had set up the BH72 very easily, am impressed with the sound quality ( very ) and, find it comfortable. Over the course of the working day I made and took calls via Webex and Microsoft Teams and was pleased ( once I had found out how to unmute myself ) with the feel of the headset. It worked just fine with or without the extended microphone boom though I would feel more confident with it extended if working in the office.

The desk stand

The desk stand, quite an elegant design, doubles as a place to hang the headset and a wireless charging pad for both headset and any other device you wish to charge. It has a rather minimalistic appearance which looks good on ones desk and also is a sturdy build. Some headset stands looks as if they will break if knocked off the desk – not this one.

Sound

The Yealink BH72 provided great sound – in both directions, I was clearly audible to my colleagues and I could hear them well. Background noise was filtered out well and I hear also that there is an upcoming firmware update to enhance this.

The headset is well priced, looks good and works well – what more could one want?

Function

The stand for charging worked really well. I liked the ‘one touch Teams access’ as well as the voice tube pull for answering calls. The stand/ charging option is also very nice to use.

All in all I found this to be an excellent headset. A headset needs to be comfortable, easy to use and have good audio. The Yealink BH72 is most certainly a headset I would recommend for anyone – working at home, on the move or in an office.
