The Poly Voyager Surround 80 Bluetooth Headset Most boomless headsets trade a cleaner look for weaker call quality. The Poly Voyager Surround 80 Bluetooth headset doesn't — it was the first boomless headset to earn Microsoft's Teams Open Office Certification, a real bar for microphone performance in noisy shared spaces, not just a compatibility checkbox. Ten microphones do the work here: six dedicated to picking up your voice cleanly, four more feeding adaptive active noise cancellation at the ear cups. Add dual 40mm speakers and a genuinely comfortable over-ear design, and this is Poly's answer for someone who wants premium audio and premium call clarity in the same headset. Build the exact Surround 80 you need One choice: which certification matches your platform. [icon:uc] UC Certified. Works with Zoom and other major UC and softphone platforms. [icon:ms-teams] Microsoft Certified. Full Microsoft Teams certification with a dedicated Teams button for instant access. The first boomless headset with Teams Open Office Certification Microsoft's Open Office specification exists specifically to test whether a headset's microphone holds up in a real shared office — nearby voices, keyboard noise, general commotion — not just a quiet test booth. The Poly Voyager Surround 80 Bluetooth headset was the first boomless design to pass it, using six of its ten microphones purely for voice pickup rather than a traditional boom arm. [card title="A real first, not a marketing claim"]The Poly Voyager Surround 80 was the first boomless headset to receive Microsoft's Teams Open Office Certification — a genuine performance bar for open-office noise, not just a compatibility badge.[/card] Two layers of noise reduction, not one The over-ear design physically seals around your ear, providing real passive noise reduction before any electronics get involved. On top of that, four dedicated microphones drive adaptive ANC at the speakers, actively canceling what makes it through the seal. Independent testing found the ANC performance solid for an indoor office environment — genuinely useful for open-plan noise — though not quite at the level of headsets from dedicated consumer audio brands built primarily around ANC. For its actual use case, blocking office chatter during calls, that's the right tradeoff. [compare] Passive (ear cup seal)Physical isolation from the over-ear design itself — works with no battery, no electronics. Active (4-mic ANC)Electronically cancels remaining noise that makes it through the seal, adjustable via touch controls.[/compare] Battery life — official numbers and what one review actually measured The Poly Voyager Surround 80 Bluetooth headset runs on a 1,100mAh battery rated for up to 21 hours of talk time or up to 24 hours of listening, with a full charge from empty taking about an hour. [stat]Up to 98 ft range (with BT700) · Up to 21 hrs talk time · 10 total microphones[/stat] [callout type="honest"]Official specs claim a 15-minute fast charge delivers up to 10 hours of talk time. One independent review's real-world test measured closer to 2.5 hours from the same 15-minute charge — still a useful top-up before a call, just worth calibrating expectations against the headline number.[/callout] Touch controls and comfort for a full day Touch-sensitive controls handle volume, playback, and ANC mode switching, with a dedicated physical mute button for the one control you want to find without looking. An ergonomic gap at the top of the headband reduces pressure at the crown of your head, and slanted, artificial-leather ear cushions are built for extended wear. Smart sensors answer a call automatically when you put the headset on and pause music when you take it off. Connectivity and audio quality The included BT700 USB-C adapter (with a USB-C to USB-A adapter for older ports) connects to a computer, while Bluetooth handles direct pairing to a mobile phone, tablet, or smartwatch — up to two devices simultaneously, with eight remembered in total. High-quality aptX-HD codec support means music and video sound genuinely good, not just serviceable for calls. A USB-C to 3.5mm audio cable is included for situations like a long flight where you'd rather not rely on battery alone. This is a headset built for someone whose calls happen in a real office, not a quiet studio — the microphone array and the Teams Open Office Certification are the actual reason to pay a premium here, not the ANC alone.
