Reasonably priced Plantronics BackBeat Go 2 wireless stereo headset improves upon the Go 1
With better sound quality and a sweatproof design

Comfortable. Lightweight. Excellent voice quality and noise suppression in both directions. Tangle-free cord really works. Clear midrange and high-end when listening to music.
The editors didn't like
Music playback quality is decent
But not amazing – exhibited highs
But the low end is lacking
Battery life isn't great (4.5 hours)
Buttons on the inline remote are small
And the LED that indicates when the device is on or in pairing mode is tiny.
No carrying case included unless you buy the BackBeat Go 2 + Charging Case ($20 more)
Ultra-soft earbud tips make it difficult to get the right fit. Some cable thump when walking. Thin bass response
At the time when the Bluetooth headsets were being launched many might have fantasized of something like Bluetooth earbuds atleast I did. Plantronics have made this fantasy a reality with the launch of their BackBeatGo some time ago. The BackBeatGo ha...

While its short battery life keeps it from true greatness, the Plantronics BackBeat Go 2 is a superior wireless Bluetooth in-ear headphone.

Abstract: Audio on the go is a necessity for most people, and for me bluetooth is the only way. I've recently been trying out a set of Plantronics BackBeat Go stereo headphones, and I've got to say, I'm impressed.I was previously rocking a rather dated set of Sony ...
Abstract: Then I got my hands (and ears) on the Plantronics BackBeat GO. Without giving too much away up front, this headset is a breath of fresh air in a market filled with "I guess I can make these work" solutions.First off, the form factor. It's basically like a...
Abstract: A few months ago at the Samsung Galaxy S 3 announcement event, I noticed another mobile editor wearing a pair of Bluetooth earbuds that were unlike any other I had previously seen. For a while now, if you wanted to use Bluetooth A2DP to listen to mus...

Abstract: What is it? The BackBeat Go is a pretty well designed device that is pure function and nothing more. Featuring two earbuds and a cord that connects them, with a mic and a few buttons close to the right ear, the BackBeat Go is a stereo Bluetooth wireless d...

There's a lot to like about the BackBeat Go wireless stereo headset, but some notable shortcomings temper our enthusiasm.
Bluetooth headphones like the Plantronics BackBeat Go are a perfect tablet companion. The BackBeat Go headphones are much more comfortable than bluetooth workout headphones and deliver better audio than single ear headsets designed mainly for phone calls...

A good choice as a workout set for music along peacful backroads or a quiet gym, with some call functionality thrown in; skip ‘em for all other uses.Rating: A flap on the right earpiece hides the set's micro-USB port. RelatedPosted on July 10, 2012 in...
