The buttons are responsive and easy to use, although you need to remember which ones which, as at first I did get confused. The headphones are incredibly comfortable to wear, one of the most comfortable I’ve worn in a long time. It was actually quite nice, perhaps too much and I would have liked some of that extra bass utilised in the ANC modes. Turning the ANC off altogether, there was a huge bass boost that became apparant. I walked around the busy streets of London, drove in cars, and was more than able to get away from it all & into the music. It states high is best used on an aeroplane etc, with low more for street sounds etc. The ANC works very well, although I was unable to tell much of a difference between high & low options. I listened to everything from rock, through to something from the local London grime scene and in all instances, the headphones kept on delivering. You can easily swap between the presets via the button at the bottom of the right cup. For me, I stuck with balanced for the duration of testing. There are two built in EQ’s available, balanced and bright, and there is a subtle difference between the two. They offer a very rich and vibrant sound, with enough low end to get me excited. Hugely impressed with the sound produced from these headphones, considering there affordable price.

You can also update the headphones firmware via the app. Within the app, you can adjust the ANC to high, low or off, and selected between Bright or Balanced EQ.

The BackBeat app is available on iOS & Android, it’s free and it’s worth checking out, but not a requirement. Once connected, you can begin to play music or pair with the app.

Anyway, connecting the headphones to your smart device via Bluetooth is as per any other Bluetooth device. Set up can be either via a wired or Bluetooth connection, and I went for the later, as Apple got rid of iPhone ports a long time again.


The first being the BackBeat GO 810 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones. This is excellent and will get travelers through long flights without a problem.It’s been nearly two years since we last featured Plantronics on the site, but they recently got in touch and sent over a number of their newer products for us to try out. In our testing, we found the headphones lasted closer to 20 hours with ANC on, which isn’t far from the company’s rating. The headphones do a decent job of keeping out the noise of a busy commute but voice and higher frequencies still get through.īattery life is rated at an impressive 22 hours with ANC enabled and up to 28 hours with ANC disabled. but, at half the price, you wouldn’t expect them to be. The Go 810's ANC leaves a lot to be desired, especially compared to leaders like the Bose QC 35 II and the Sony WH-1000XM3.

There’s also an annoying faint hiss when there’s no music playing, something that doesn’t happen with the Platronics BackBeat Pro 2. With ANC disabled, the headphone’s bass gets overwhelming and sounds loose. We tried the headphone with both ANC on and off and found it sounded best with ANC on. In terms of sound, the Plantronics BackBeat GO 810 are good, but fall flat of a few areas: the tonal balance is slightly warm from neutral, but the headphones don’t provide a lot of detail.
