Plantronics is a well-known American manufacturer of voice communication products, and in the 60s of the 20th century, Plantronics became the only headset supplier to the Federal Aviation Administration. In 1969, Armstrong's historic call "One Small Step for Individual, One Big Step for Humanity" was also transmitted through Plantronic's headsets.
 
In recent years, Bluetooth music headsets with integrated music playback and call functions have become the mainstream, and the market for mono car Bluetooth headsets has been further squeezed. However, because the car Bluetooth headset was originally built for outdoor and driving calls, manufacturers mostly use microphone noise reduction to ensure the quality of the call, so in terms of call quality, the car Bluetooth headset is still better than the music headset at the same price.
 
Plantronics' microphone noise cancellation technology is unrivaled by almost no rival, and it remains the industry leader in the automotive headset segment. However, the leading technology is also difficult to resist the downward trend of the market, price reduction has almost become the only means to boost sales, now Plantronics car Bluetooth headset is divided into entry M series and mid-range E series The price is as low as about 200 yuan, for consumers, the E series with a higher positioning is obviously a more ideal purchase choice.

The Voyager series is equipped with more than three noise-cancelling microphones, NFC connectivity, and more than 6 hours of talk time, which can be used around the clock. Due to its high-tech appearance, the Voyager series headset is often used as a "secret agent model" in blockbusters such as "The Avengers" and "Mission Impossible".
 
Voyager 5200 is the ace product of the Voyager series, priced at 698 yuan, this headset adopts an earhook design, evenly distributes the weight on both sides of the fuselage, and does not feel tired when worn all day, the built-in four-microphone noise reduction radio effect is almost the highest level in the industry, the waterproof level reaches IPX4, and it can also be used outdoors on rainy days. Because of its perfect features and few shortcomings, Wirecutter chose it as the first in the review.
 
The sub-flagship Voyager 3200 is the runner-up model in the wirecutter evaluation, priced at about 500 yuan. This headset is a three-microphone noise canceller, and although the sound quality is not as good as the 5200, it is also completely sufficient in the office environment. Weighing only half the weight of the 5200, the Voyager 3200 has an in-ear design that is more suitable for users with long hair and glasses. If you're concerned about the unstable fit of the headphones, you can also use the included earhook accessories.
