Microsoft Modern USB-C Speaker, Certified for Microsoft Teams, 2- Way Compact Stereo Speaker, Call Controls, Noise Reducing Microphone. Wired USB-C Connection,Black

Works perfect for a team meeting with remote jobs, it has nice volume control goes to a nice height in volume in the clarity of words come through Bluetooth works great and battery life I have not had any issues :)

Good speaker and microphone, others can hear me clearly and I can hear them, this is used for work with MS Teams. Much better for work than headphones.

Great for my home office. I’m on teams often. This way better than laptop speakers or a headset. I like that you can adjust volume or mute/unmute with large backlit buttons to right on the speaker.

I've used this Teams speaker for work every day for over 2 years. It has greatly improved my audio and microphone quality and it works seamlessly with Teams, which I practically live on! I like the ease of setup, the microphone mute button is huge as I constantly want to prevent background noise when I'm not speaking during group meetings, and I can easily accept calls through a button on it. It looks sleek and fits where I need to, as I've opted for a very compact desk space where every square inch is being used for my PC setup.That said, my one issue is that the speaker naturally lays down so that the speakers fire directly up. This might be fine for a conference room setting, and maybe that's what Microsoft intended? But for personal use, I want my speaker to be directionally pointed at me so I can hear it more cleanly. To fix this, I've simply leaned the speaker against my docking station, allowing the speaker to point directly at me and dramatically improve the sound. This has worked out fine for me the entire time, but for a new buyer, take note that I would prefer if the speaker naturally pointed in a direction of the hearer.

Since I started traveling for work, I have been on a mission to reduce the size/weight of things that I have in my backpack. I used to travel with a medium sized bluetooth speaker that I used in the hotel for music and white noise at night, along with a Jabra 510 that I brought with me to the office for meetings. For the hotel use case, I have since moved to one of those teeny tiny, weird name Chinese brand speakers that literally fit in the palm of your hand and weigh next to nothing. However, even though the sound quality of those are surprisingly good and they have a built-in mic, the voice quality was horrible if you tried to use them for the meetings/speakerphone use case.After doing a bunch of research, I found this Microsoft speakerphone that checks all my boxes for the office scenario. It was small (about the size of a classic video game controller), has a nice hard shell case, is Teams certified, and is lightweight. It is also much cheaper than offerings from Jabra, Yealink, Anker and others. I also really like the built-in cable management. I got used to that feature on the Jabra and did not like options that either offered no cable management, or just had a detachable cable. The sound quality in Teams seems on par or better than with the Jabra and MUCH better than any mini travel speaker/mic combo that I have tried.Only downside that some may have with this is that it does not have bluetooth. But for me, that was not a requirement. I have a bluetooth headset if I needed to be wireless. Plus, for the price ($52 when I bought it), I wouldn't expect that feature.If you are looking for a speaker that you can keep in your travel/office bag without taking up much room, this is one has a good balance between price, sound, build quality, features and size.

First of all you have one job, work on a teams call. Everyone on the other end of the teams call says when I use the speaker/mic combo it echos the meetings bad. Also when I use the speaker/mic combo it's not very deep or loud sounding. So, I use my logitech webcam's mic, and just use this as a USB speaker. Plus, when I don't "use the speaker/mic" combo I cannot use the physical "mute" button on the device to mute my logitech mic. In other words, the physical buttons only work if you enable the whole combo, which causes everyone else on the call problems. Would not buy again.

Does not work with Targus USB C Docking Station Universal DV4K (P/N DOCK310USZ).Reluctant to give is a negative review ; really wanted it to work - it's a neat little package with potentially useful functionality. But I need it to work with Docking Station, so it has to go back to Amazon.

The only bummer is that it is for MS teams meetings.
