THE GOOD
1. Really good battery life. I use these in an office setting and I use them intermittently. When I got these, I charged them and used them around the house to test them out and then took them to the office. I've had these for going on two weeks and have charged them once. That's probably around 40 hours of use over the two week period and the battery wasn't dead, it was low.
2. PHENOMENAL range. I have other blue tooth headphones, and I can tell you these have an incredible range. Through walls, down the hall, if I were to put a distance on these, I would say they reach at least three times as far as any other headphones I have.
3. Comfortable. I can wear these for hours on end and they don't hurt my head or my ears. I have buds that I paid the same (if not more) amount, and I can't wear them for more than an hour before they start hurting my ears.
4. I can have them connected to my computer AND my phone - this is the reason I bought them
5. Sound. The muffs are comfortable AND they do a decent job of cancelling out the noise. Music from my phone can be turned now to near minimum and it still comes through loud and clear.
6. Oh, and a really cool feature? Pausing your music when you take the headphones off. It's a small feature, but really cool
7. Pass through mic. This does work, and is pretty cool. You can turn that on, have a conversation (or listen in on a conversation) without taking the headphones off. (see item 2 of THE BAD below)
THE BAD
So, all that praise, what's the bad? Well, that deals mostly with items 4 and 5 above.
1. The connection switching between the computer and phone isn't as seamless as I'd like it. I often work in a terminal which emits beeps when it doesn't like what I'm doing, that interrupts the music from my phone, which is what it's supposed to do, but it doesn't switch back immediately. It almost seems like it needs a time out to switch back. Now, it could be the order that I paired the devices in, and it's not enough of an annoyance that I've investigated it further.
2. These are supposed to be ANC (Active Noise Cancelling}, but I can't seem to tell a difference between when I have the headphones in normal and ANC mode. HOWEVER, the muffs do enough natural noise cancelling that it works for my environment. When I turned on the ANC while my office mate was on the phone I couldn't tell a difference in the noise level of his conversation, but I also couldn't understand what he was saying (but, he was speaking Chinese, so there's that). These may work better in a noisier environment where there's more noise to cancel.
THE UGLY or MEH
1. This is probably a driver thing, or my computer just sucks, but, sitting right next to the computer I will get occasional distortion (glitchy digitization if that makes sense) when listening to music. I have not experienced this with my phone, so I believe it's an issue with the computer.
2. When first pairing (for example I started music on my phone and then turned on the headphones) the music is a bit glitchy for a few seconds. I don't consider this abnormal, but it's worth mentioning
Overall, I'm very happy with these headphones, I believe they're worth the price and would definitely buy them again.

Overall, I'm very happy with these headphones, I believe they're worth the price and would definitely buy them again.
The buying experience: I purchased this "USED, LIKE-NEW" because it is at least $30+ cheaper than new. I got it within the promised shipping time of about a week with free shipping. I was somewhat unpleasantly surprised that a LIKE-NEW item did not come in a box and owners manual. The headphones was shipped inside the soft Plantronics pouch in a bubble lined plastic envelope with the complete accessories (3.5mm jack and micro usb charger). I did not notice any scratches and cracks. I was at least hoping for a generic shipping box that can protect the battery and electronics in case it was dropped during shipping.
Feel and comfort: Compared to more expensive ANC headphones I tried in store displays, the PLT BBP 2 do feel a bit heavier and bulkier but does have a quality build similar to those models. The weight is evenly distributed around my head and the earcups have just the right snugness around the ears, head and face considering its weight. I wore it for about 4 hours and did not feel any heat and did not sweat at all. I did feel a little pressure on the front of the ears when I was laying down while watching a movie from my bed. Then again I'm not traveling business or first class. If I was, I'm sure I would spend the money on higher end brands. I don't really have, what you might literally say, a standard-sized head. I usually wear wider sunglasses that are often not available off-the-shelf. The BBP2 feel comfortable and secure.I do understand that the dark brown and faux wood fit and finishes are polarizing but I actually think it gives the BBP2 a more sophisticated and unique look.
Controls: The controls were easy to get used to and well placed. The buttons and switches have a solid feel to them. I got used to how they work and where they are placed only within the first 15 mins of use. I like that I get voice feedback from a pleasant AI voice with pairing, volume, and all the other controls. It makes using BBP2 more intuitive and fool-proof in case you accidentally used the wrong control.
Sound quality: True to expert reviews and feedbacks, sound quality and balance are excellent. I don't know if I am just getting older, but extra bass is hurts my ears and even causes headaches especially when combined with high altitude and increased cabin pressure. Tried different music genres (pop, hip-hop, classic rock, jazz, etc.) and I was very happy with the sound quality. I binged watch 4 episodes of Jack Ryan on Amazon last night and the dialogues were crisp and explosive action scenes did not cause fatigue at all. The BBP2 enhances the functionality and music experience with the DTS-X 3D Surround function of my LG phone (G7Qthin) as it produces awesome soundstage effect.
Connectivity: Bluetooth pairing was a breeze and quick. works well with my new LG phone (G7Qthin) as well as Amazon Firestick. I almost forgot that it still work as a "regular" headphone even when the power is turned off if connected using the 3.5mm jack. I specifically wanted a hardwire capable headphone because of the poor quality headphones you get with airlines. I especially like the Hi-Def Quad DAC feature (only for hardwire connection) on my LG phone which gives a more "organic" sound quality that, I feel, enhances the performance of the BBP 2. Bluetooth range of over a 100 ft is more than 3 times most headphones. I left my phone charging in the bedroom and did not loose connection wherever I was in my 2000 sq/ft home. The "pause function" when taking the headphones off my ears worked flawlessly and, to my surprise, works as well when watching a movie. It is a great function when you have to take bathroom break without reaching for the TV remote.
Battery Life: Haven't had the chance to tryout the promised 24 hour battery life but expert reviewers rave it to be accurate. I received the BBP2 with "power level high" according to the voice prompt. After 4 hours, the voice prompt said that it was still at the same level.
Active Noice Cancelling: The reviews were pretty honest to say that the Bose QC2 is the gold standard in ANC. The Plantronics does not pretend it can match Bose but it also does not disappoint. I was in our small bathroom with the tub faucet on full blast with 2 toddlers talking and playing and the ANC made it the most pleasant bath time ever! It failed to drown out about 15% of the "noise" but it was quite acceptable. The ambient microphone feature is a great added feature.
Overall: Whether you purchase it used or new, the PLT BBP2 is an amazing value. It packs a lot of features with great sound quality for less. it's not a low budget level decision but then again you get a lot of bang for the buck! The controls are intuitive coupled with good build quality. It's all about the sound quality and the PLT BBP2 does not disappoint!
Tip: Purchase a hard case for about $13 on amazon to protect your investment.

Reviewed in Mexico on February 6, 2021
20 plus hour battery life, check. Seriously I get over 30 hours on average. But I dont use noise canceling at all. It's just not my thing, I like to hear care honking at me lol.
I'm an audiophile so for sound I'll give these 5 out of 5. But they are bass heavy do you will have to know how to set up your equalizer for what you are listening to. If you adjust your EQ well these cans are good for everything. Jazz, rap, trap, R&b, metal, rock, country, swing, big band, acoustic, accapella, folk, blues. "I listen to music every day for hours, and a wide variety'' these really are great for everything, but I have to adjust my EQ frequently.
The soundstage is decent but dont expect these to sound like Beyerdynamic DT990 headphones or Sennheiser HD 598. These aren't 300$ headphones and shouldn't be compared to them at all. To me that's like comparing a V6 with a turbo to a V8 supercharger with noss. Both are great and have their place but they are worlds apart.
Plus these have nice features like the active mic button that pauses your music and lets you hear people say stuff like "move or your going to get run over by that forklift" lol also if you just take the headphones off they have a sensor that will pause your music. I take them off and put them down often, purposely not shutting them off because of the long battery life. In a few minutes or half hour I'll have them back on anyhow.
Also they breath well, my ears dont sweat at all and I can hardly tell I have them on. They are comfortable and fairly light.
Lastly the controls on the headphones work well and seem to ge built solid. Also anyone who had called me while I am out walking with them on says the microphone sounds decent.
So all in all for the price, these are probably the best over ear cans out there.
That's my honest review.
Pros: Premium look and feel, Excellent features (Open mic, ANC, Misic pauses when you take it off etc), superb music quality. People who compare this with Sony and bose, let me remind you this is 80% as good as sony and bose in terms of sound quality and 70% as good as sony and bose in terms of Noise cancellation at less than 50% of their price. Great comfort to wear for long hours. superb battery life. Great bluetooth range
Cons: Just wish that this was foldable. Little bulky to carry when not using.
All in all great value for money. Just go for it if you dont want to spend more than double for Sony or Bose
