Sound Your Best, Wherever You Are
Your non-stop life keeps you on the move. You answer a call in the car, keep talking out on the street, and say your goodbyes while leaving the coffee shop—and you expect to sound your best everywhere. The Plantronics Voyager Edge Bluetooth headset reliably eliminates unwanted noise with three precisely tuned microphones and enhanced noise canceling, optimizing your voice so your caller hears you, not your surroundings. Additionally, this headset is ready for wideband audio, making it compatible with smartphones enabled for HD Voice.
The Voyager Edge in black (view larger).Carry the Conversation, Not the Phone
Voyager Edge packs in responsive features to let you answer calls, use voice commands, and hear important status notifications without even looking at your phone. Smart sensor technology senses when the headset is being worn so it can automatically answer calls as you place the headset on your ear or redirect audio to your phone when you set down your headset. Voyager Edge syncs to your contacts, telling you who's calling before you answer and voice commands make call management easy—simply say "Answer" to take the call, or "Ignore" to send it to voicemail. Now your "phone hand" can carry a latte, greet someone, or open a door.
Performance and power to keep your conversation going (view larger).Stay Connected Longer
Be ready when life calls. Using the portable, wireless charging case to top up your Voyager Edge between calls will keep you powered throughout your day by giving you up to 10 additional hours of talk time. Status alerts announce when it's time to recharge, but if at any time you're curious, use a voice command to hear remaining talk time, visually check battery status on your smartphone, or dock your Voyager Edge in its case and tap the touch-sensitive icons to see the meter LEDs light up.
Fully charged case gives your Voyager Edge up to 16 hours of talk time (view larger).Enhanced by Free Plantronics Apps
Simplify your communication experience with a variety of free apps from Plantronics for both iOS and Android devices.
Use the free Plantronics Hub ™ app to explore features, change settings, check the connection, battery and smart sensor status, and even help you locate your lost headset. If you misplace your Voyager Edge, use the Find MyHeadset feature to send an audible tone to help you locate it nearby, or if it's out of Bluetooth range or powered off, you can use the Backtrack activity log to map where it was last in use. The Find MyHeadset feature is part of the Plantronics Hub app for iOS but remains a standalone app for Android.
To help you sort through your busy workday, the Plantronics InstantMeeting app automatically identifies conference calls and dialing details from your calendar, reminds you just before the meeting is scheduled to begin, and with one touch connects you to your conference call—no need to pull over and toggle between screens to find all those numbers and access codes.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2014The Plantronics Voyager Edge is an impressive headset, and packs the right balance of features, usability, and comfort to make it the go to choice for high end bluetooth headsets. Let me start by saying that I have for years been a Jawbone user. Without turning this into a complete Jawbone rant I will warn those comparison shoppers out there—a group to which I belonged—beware of the latest Jawbone offering. Having been a longtime user of the original Jawbone, then the Era, I initially sought out the new Jawbone Era, despite shoddy reviews. And this, even after having read such positive reviews of the Edge. Save yourself the trouble and go with the Edge.
The Edge, unlike the new Era, provides great sound quality for the people with whom you are speaking on the other end. This would seem to be a primary qualifier for any headset that you are going to drop over $100 on. After all, who wants a headset that nobody can hear you on? I have had the Edge for several weeks and regularly solicit feedback on the call quality from those on the other end. So far so good.
The Edge has great battery life. I listen to a lot of podcasts, audiobooks, and internet radio with the headset. I have found this to be one of the most enjoyable features of the newer bluetooth headset capabilities. Although not scientifically based, I don’t doubt the 6 hour talk time estimate, and the handy charger case makes it very convenient to extend the time well beyond that.
The Edge is the most comfortable headset I have tried out of the box. I have very small ears and have historically used a custom made insert with my headsets. Although I will continue to do so, I have been using the small silicone insert that came with the Edge and have been pleasantly surprised. I can wear the Edge for about 2 hours at a time before my ear becomes fatigued. One downside, however, is that it doesn’t form a tight seal. This means you will often have to crank the volume up to be able to hear in noisy environments. This is a fairly small quibble, and one that will be fixed with a custom ear insert.
The size of the headset was an initial detractor. I was used to the tiny Era (original) and had then tried the even tinier new Era. But I found that small size definitely does not equal better quality. While the size is considerably larger than its chief competitor at Jawbone, it is not a heavy headset, and is still very comfortable. An unforeseen benefit of the Edge’s size is that it is harder to lose. Much to my chagrin, I have lost or accidentally washed my previous Era headsets (while in pants pockets) more times than I’d like to admit. I don’t think I’m as likely to do that with this headset, which is a bit meatier and more apparent when in a pocket.
Finally, the sound quality for streaming audio may be the one area in which the Edge doesn’t beat out the Era. Era’s HD audio is still superior, but not by a wide margin. I’m obliged to mention this, but I wouldn’t let it deter anyone’s decision on whether to use this headset over another, particularly the Era. Plantronics has created a winner here, and I hope to have many more months and even years of good use from this headset.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2014First of all, I spent a bunch of time trying to get the MyHeadset Updater working on an old Windows netbook and a Windows VM to no avail. Then I just went to: [...], selected the Edge, and downloaded. Lo and behold it was a DMG file and contained what seems to be a working MyHeadset Updater app for Mac! Very happy to find this, they may have JUST released that this morning.
For the headset itself, I've had it two days and I remain cautiously optimistic. s goal is to replace a desktop Plantronic Savi 740 with something that can talk to my laptop and cell phone, and be more portable. Big pros in my book:
1) Pairs to my android (with a nice app to show battery life and change settings) AND to my Mavericks Macbook Air
2) Seems to work ok for Skype and other VOIP apps (Zoiper) with a little fiddling on the Mac. I tried disabling the streaming music setting and this broke the mac connection, so I guess it needs to stay on.
3) Case/charger is a nice feature, I would have no hesitation tossing this into my bag for a trip.
4) Rubbery ear pieces fit in my ear nicely, it is comfortable and feels quite secure. I'm not sure I'd jog with it, but for office work, not a problem.
Cons so far:
1) Had some issues with a Lync meeting running on my Mac in a browser window. To be fair, I'm not sure I consider this a problem (except with the person running Lync meetings)
2) Had some weird freakout as the result of the above where I had to restart bluetooth on my mac.
3) Can't seem to get the headset buttons to trigger a voice search on my Android, though I'd guess this works fine on an iPhone. Maybe more of an android thing.
4) Emits weird beeps during calls that I'm not sure the meaning of. Probably I just need to read the manual.
I'll try to update if I end up sending back or keeping and further experience.
Update: June 19th 2014
I still have this and have been using it steadily since I got it. I have occasional bluetooth issues, but nothing restarting the bluetooth on my computer or phone doesn't seem to address and not super frequent. I'm hoping a future firmware upgrade will clean up these minor issues (or a new laptop with updated bluetooth), but it's not so bad currently.
I find I'm able to use this to easily replace a desktop headset for medium work use, and I barely notice it in my ear (sometimes I think it's there, but it isn't). It's also great that I can jump in the car with the same headset.
I can't say this is the same quality as a USB-connected DECT headset in terms of sound quality, but the versatility of it seems to work great and I'm not having issues understanding or being understood on calls.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2019I've been using the Plantronics Voyager Edge headset for about a year and a half. It's an OK headset, but I don't like it as well as my previous Motorola HX550, which I loved but couldn't purchase any longer. What I like about the Plantronics Voyager Edge: The sound quality is very good - both incoming and outgoing. The battery life is decent (not as good as the Motorola). I probably talk on it about 1-2 hours per day. I have to charge it up about every third or fourth day. It came with the charger case, which would be nice if you talk on the headset a lot. What I don't care for in the Plantronics Voyager Edge: It is not as easy to keep in my ear as the Motorola was - it's not terrible, but not great. To me, the Plantronics is a little too loud even at the lowest setting. I have very sensitive ears, so for me it's almost a deal breaker. It might work well for someone who has hearing difficulties. I had trouble with the automated features, so I just manually turn it on / off when needed. One thing that I found very annoying is that every time it answers a call, it says this long message about "answering call, talk time is 3 hours." When all you want to do is answer your call, that message delays you and is very annoying. The worst thing about the headset is that for some unknown reason, it sometimes won't answer the call even if you say "answer" when it asks "answer or ignore". Then you miss your call. Every once in a while, I turn on the headset to answer a call, and it completely shuts down my phone! Then I have to restart my phone and call the caller back. Can't figure out why that happens sometimes.

5.0 out of 5 stars In perfect condition, looks brand new
Arrived within estimated time frame. Australia & Asia edition, so limited languages. In perfect condition, looks brand new. Have been using it for 3 months 10hrs/day in an outdoor workplace, earpiece fits very well, has been dropped from 20ft onto concrete. Absolutely no issues, very pleased with this refurb. product. Pairs with 2 devices, will handoff between devices. I occasionally have trouble hearing callers due to environmental noise ie. traffic, jet planes etc. The noise elimination is great the other end of the line hears only me in these cases (very noisy environments) shouting into the piece. Charge case is very handy, voice prompts are given when battery is getting low and needs some more juice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Eccellente ed Efficiente
Sono veramente colpito. Dopo anni di auricolari/vivavoce Jabra (credendo fossero il "top")... Mi devo ricredere...
Con estremo Piacere, ho riscoperto questo (per Me primo) auricolare Plantronics e (pur essendo ovviamente un Top di gamma) è veramente Eccellente.
Non c'è assolutamente paragone con Jabra (non li comprerò mai più!)...
Jabra cura più l'estetica... ma ha meno sostanza (Qualità dei Materiali, Ergonomia, ecc.)...
Plantronics, al di là dell'estetica (per Me bella... ma pur sempre Soggettiva...) Cura molto i vari Dettagli SOSTANZIOSI dell'apparecchio...
A solo titolo d'esempio, del mio ultimo Jabra Stealth (1 anno fa... già distrutto! ... ed Io ho mooolta Cura/Attenzione dei miei Apparecchi Elettronici), se il gommino copri porta USB dopo 1 giorno (!) già non chiudeva più bene (come lamentato da altri!) il (più Importante) Gommino (rosa/arancione) copri Auricolare... si Staccava con estrema facilità (rischiando ovviamente di Perderlo!)... bastava tenere in tasca l'auricolare... e si staccava spesso!!! Poi, invece, si è aperto l'auricolare (uscito l'altoparlante!)... poi si è distrutta (letteralmente sbriciolata) la plastica della scocca... Quindi, in una parola: VERGOGNOSO (visto il costo)!!!
Il Gommino (trasparente) di Plantronics (almeno di questo Edge) è super Ergonomico (comunque ce ne sono di 3 misure diverse) e super "incastrato" nell'Auricolare... Impossibile che si stacchi da solo (e, quindi, che si possa perdere)... d'altronde... non serve un Genio per Progettare e Costruire BENE questi particolari accessori... Basta uno Studio (Disegno) Intelligente, Materiali di Qualità... ed una Costruzione (Assemblaggio) Precisa!
Inoltre, il "gancino"/occhiello di "gomma" (silicone?) attaccato, "diverso" da altre marche (più lungo, ma più morbido) si incastra nell'orecchio benissimo... Abituato al Gancio (Hook) attorno all'orecchio (forse più "scomodo", ma più sicuro... comunque Presente), mi sto trovando benissimo anche con questo, molto più piccolo (discreto), "invisibile"... Stabile... (è virtualmente "impossibile" che caschi l'auricolare).
Notevole!
Particolari Costruttivi, Materiali, Scocca, tutti sembrano di Ottima Qualità (ovviamente dovrò aspettare mesi per Verificare a lungo termine alcune Variabili di Resistenza nel Tempo)...
Volume auricolare Fantastico (aggiornato il Firmware, messa la lingua Italiana, scaricata l'App di supporto)...
Gli Altri mi sentono Benissimo!!! E a Trieste gavemo la Bora... Ma anche in mezzo alla strada (traffico, ecc.) mi sentono adeguatamente Bene!
Leggerissimo, super Ergonomico (quasi non lo senti addosso)...
Ricambi accessibili ed economici...
Credevo di no... Invece anche il suo "sarcofago" (:-) (il suo Contenitore/Caricabatteria) nonostante sia un po' "grandino" per tenerlo in tasca... è molto utile da tenere - quanto meno - ad es. sulla scrivania, comodino, ecc. (all'istante lo colleghi/scolleghi... e ti ricarica l'auricolare, anche senza una presa immediata... avendo la sua batteria interna/supplementare)...
Di fatto, tenendolo in tasca (anche senza "sarcofago" protettivo), non "partono" mai telefonate per errore (schiacciando inavvertitamente il pulsante... come accade con quasi tutti gli auricolari bluetooth in tasca...). INTELLIGENTE!
A chi potesse servire, Consiglio anche il Cordino (proposto da Amazon come extra) che, al costo ridicolo di 3 €, può essere molto Utile per tenere agganciato (tramite micro USB) al collo l'Auricolare (in auto, ufficio, ecc.)... Non si stacca per errore (cioè non cade)...
Insomma... Consigliatissimo! (non comprerò mai più Jabra)
Amazon, come sempre... Eccellente!

SandfireReviewed in Germany on April 21, 2016
5.0 out of 5 stars Beste Entscheidung als Nachfolger für das Plantronics Discovery 925
Wie die Überschrift schon anmutet, möchte ich hier einen Vergleich wagen zwischen meinem alten Discovery 925 und meinem neuen Voyager EDGE.
Vor einigen Jahren erwarb ich das Discovery, um das kabelgebunde Headset meines iPhones durch eine bequemere Lösung zu ersetzen. Zur damaligen Zeit bestach das Discovery durch seine hervorragende Sprachqualität und die sehr gute Filterung von Hintergrundgeräuschen sowie das innovative Lade-Etui.
Ich war über die Jahre mit dem Discovery eigentlich sehr zufrieden, stellte jedoch fest, dass die Sprachqualität über die Jahre nachließ und auch Verbindungsabbrüche nichts ungewöhnliches waren.
Zudem nervte mich eines ungemein: Die Blueetothverbindung an sich. Blueetoth einschalten, Headset einschalten. Freiwilliges Koppeln? Fehlanzeige. Also erst einmal am Handy in die Einstellungen, Blueetooth, Headset anwählen.
Hat man das mal vergessen und erhielt einen Anruf, dann stand man oftmals während der Fahrt dumm dar, da das Headset sich wieder einmal nicht verbunden hatte, trotz beiderseitig aktivem Bluetooth.
Zeit, umzusteigen. Da ich mir Plantronics ansonsten sehr zufrieden war, sollte es auch wieder eines von Plantronics werden, diesmal das Voyager Edge.
Nach mehreren Wochen im Dauereinsatz kann ich nun folgendes berichten:
Das erste Koppeln - super einfach und ohne Probleme.
Bluetoothverbindung zum Telefon ist nach Einschalten des Bluetooth am Handy und Einschalten des Headset selbst schnell getan. Die Geräte verbinden sich ohne großes Zutun schnell miteinander, das Headset sagt einem die noch verbleibende Gesprächsdauer an und dass es mit dem Telefon verbunden ist. So weiß ich immer, ob ich mich denn auf meinen Knopf im Ohr auch verlassen kann.
Super gut gefällt mir die Sprachwahl und dass auch die Benutzung von Siri so problemlos funktioniert. Kommt ein Anruf rein, kann ich über die Sprachannahme des Headsets den Anruf verbal entgegennehmen. Ich bevorzuge da jedoch den Druck aufs Knöpfchen.
Telefone tätigen, SMS schreiben, Sprachsteuerung an sich - funktioniert super. 2 Sekunden lang die Taste am Headset gedrückt halten und Siri meldet sich zu Wort, was denn mein Begehr ist. "Person XY mobil anrufen" und schon wird mein Anruf in die Wege geleitet. Gleiches gilt auch für das Schreiben von SMS. Nimmt das Headset wirklich gut an.
Gesprächsdauer - liegt bei voll geladenem Headset bei 6 Stunden und das kommt auch wunderbar hin. Ich habe gestern beispielsweise 4 Stunden über mein Voyager telefoniert und habe noch 2 Stunden verbleibende Gesprächszeit angesagt bekommen, da kann man nicht klagen.
Das bringt mich auch gleich zum nächsten Punkt:
Der Komfort - da kann man nicht klagen. Sitzt super im Ohr, hält fest, fällt nicht raus, auch wenn man strammen Schrittes zu Fuß unterwegs ist oder aus dem Auto ein- und wieder aussteigt. Vor allem aber sitzt es bequem und verursacht (zumindest bei mir) keine Ohrenschmerzen. Das war beim Discovery anders. Da bekam ich nach nicht mal einer Stunde bereits Ohrenschmerzen und empfand den Sitz trotz des kleinsten Ohrenpöppels als sehr unangenehm. Außerdem saß es nicht annähernd so sicher wie das mein neues Voyager es tut.
Die austauschbaren Gummipöppels - super! Ich habe mich erst einmal durchprobiert, bin aber bei der mittleren Größe hängengeblieben. Sie sitzen super bequem, das Headset lässt sich ohne großes "Manövrieren" einsetzen und ich empfinde diese Gumminöppels auch als hygienischer als die des Vorgängers. Die Gummipöppels des Discovery wurden trotz regelmäßiger Reinigung super schnell gelblich und sahen unappetitlich aus. Nicht so beim Voyager... hier verfärbt sich nichts, auch werden die Gumminöppels nicht nach einiger Zeit wabbelig. Sehr viel angenehmer als beim Vorgänger.
Abschließend: Das Lade-Etui - macht schon was her. Das Etui des Discovery war damals eine Neuerung und zweifelsohne sehr praktisch. Allerdings war es ein elendes Gefummel, das Headset da unbeschadet (ohne den Mikro-USB-Anschluss zu zerstören) hinein zu bekommen, mit seinem kleinen Hebel, der den Mikro-USB ein wenig anhob, um das Headset da präzise drauf zu stecken. Und obwohl ich ein Nichtraucherhaushalt bin, hat sich das Case mit der Zeit von innen (bei dem grauen Flausch) unangenehm verfärbt, vermutlich durch die Gummipöppel.
Anders beim Voyager. Das Etui ist super schick, sehr schnittig, fast ein wenig wie das Kollosseum. Man klickt das Headset einfach rein und gut sein. So einfach geht das, ohne irgendwas kaputt zu friemeln. Einziger Nachteil: In der Handtasche/Aktentasche kann es schonmal passieren, dass das Headset sich aus dem Etui löst, weil es eben nur auf den Mikro-USB geklickt wird. Aber halb so wild, es ist ja nicht zerbrechlich.
Toll ist auch die Ladestandsanzeige, die einfach durch Streichen über das Etui aufleuchtet.
Alles in allem: Absolute Kaufempfehlung.

SandfireBeste Entscheidung als Nachfolger für das Plantronics Discovery 925
Reviewed in Germany on April 21, 2016
Vor einigen Jahren erwarb ich das Discovery, um das kabelgebunde Headset meines iPhones durch eine bequemere Lösung zu ersetzen. Zur damaligen Zeit bestach das Discovery durch seine hervorragende Sprachqualität und die sehr gute Filterung von Hintergrundgeräuschen sowie das innovative Lade-Etui.
Ich war über die Jahre mit dem Discovery eigentlich sehr zufrieden, stellte jedoch fest, dass die Sprachqualität über die Jahre nachließ und auch Verbindungsabbrüche nichts ungewöhnliches waren.
Zudem nervte mich eines ungemein: Die Blueetothverbindung an sich. Blueetoth einschalten, Headset einschalten. Freiwilliges Koppeln? Fehlanzeige. Also erst einmal am Handy in die Einstellungen, Blueetooth, Headset anwählen.
Hat man das mal vergessen und erhielt einen Anruf, dann stand man oftmals während der Fahrt dumm dar, da das Headset sich wieder einmal nicht verbunden hatte, trotz beiderseitig aktivem Bluetooth.
Zeit, umzusteigen. Da ich mir Plantronics ansonsten sehr zufrieden war, sollte es auch wieder eines von Plantronics werden, diesmal das Voyager Edge.
Nach mehreren Wochen im Dauereinsatz kann ich nun folgendes berichten:
Das erste Koppeln - super einfach und ohne Probleme.
Bluetoothverbindung zum Telefon ist nach Einschalten des Bluetooth am Handy und Einschalten des Headset selbst schnell getan. Die Geräte verbinden sich ohne großes Zutun schnell miteinander, das Headset sagt einem die noch verbleibende Gesprächsdauer an und dass es mit dem Telefon verbunden ist. So weiß ich immer, ob ich mich denn auf meinen Knopf im Ohr auch verlassen kann.
Super gut gefällt mir die Sprachwahl und dass auch die Benutzung von Siri so problemlos funktioniert. Kommt ein Anruf rein, kann ich über die Sprachannahme des Headsets den Anruf verbal entgegennehmen. Ich bevorzuge da jedoch den Druck aufs Knöpfchen.
Telefone tätigen, SMS schreiben, Sprachsteuerung an sich - funktioniert super. 2 Sekunden lang die Taste am Headset gedrückt halten und Siri meldet sich zu Wort, was denn mein Begehr ist. "Person XY mobil anrufen" und schon wird mein Anruf in die Wege geleitet. Gleiches gilt auch für das Schreiben von SMS. Nimmt das Headset wirklich gut an.
Gesprächsdauer - liegt bei voll geladenem Headset bei 6 Stunden und das kommt auch wunderbar hin. Ich habe gestern beispielsweise 4 Stunden über mein Voyager telefoniert und habe noch 2 Stunden verbleibende Gesprächszeit angesagt bekommen, da kann man nicht klagen.
Das bringt mich auch gleich zum nächsten Punkt:
Der Komfort - da kann man nicht klagen. Sitzt super im Ohr, hält fest, fällt nicht raus, auch wenn man strammen Schrittes zu Fuß unterwegs ist oder aus dem Auto ein- und wieder aussteigt. Vor allem aber sitzt es bequem und verursacht (zumindest bei mir) keine Ohrenschmerzen. Das war beim Discovery anders. Da bekam ich nach nicht mal einer Stunde bereits Ohrenschmerzen und empfand den Sitz trotz des kleinsten Ohrenpöppels als sehr unangenehm. Außerdem saß es nicht annähernd so sicher wie das mein neues Voyager es tut.
Die austauschbaren Gummipöppels - super! Ich habe mich erst einmal durchprobiert, bin aber bei der mittleren Größe hängengeblieben. Sie sitzen super bequem, das Headset lässt sich ohne großes "Manövrieren" einsetzen und ich empfinde diese Gumminöppels auch als hygienischer als die des Vorgängers. Die Gummipöppels des Discovery wurden trotz regelmäßiger Reinigung super schnell gelblich und sahen unappetitlich aus. Nicht so beim Voyager... hier verfärbt sich nichts, auch werden die Gumminöppels nicht nach einiger Zeit wabbelig. Sehr viel angenehmer als beim Vorgänger.

5.0 out of 5 stars muy práctico, máxima calidad
llevo un mes usándolo y estoy bastante contento:
PROS
- el aparato es muy pequeño y ligero, ni te das cuenta que lo tienes
- la calidad de sonido es óptima, por nitidez y volumen siempre he escuchado perfectamente a todo el mundo, y la gente con la que hablo jamás me han dicho que me escuchan mal; incluso ambos en ambiente con ruido
- la función de contestar una llamada al ponértelo es maravillosa
- la batería dura bastante tiempo
- el bluetooth funciona genial, es muy fácil de instalar y usar
- incluye una base para cargar (también se puede cargar el aparato individualmente) que además sirve de batería y guarda una carga
- cable usb guay, auriculares de varios tamaños bastante suaves y un cargador de coche muy útil
- diseño molón
CONTRAS (muy pocas)
- el gancho original se hace un poco incómodo a los 10 minutos de llevarlo puesto, pero compre un pack de 5 por 1'45€ (sodial unversal clamp); aún así para llamadas cortas puedes incluso usarlo sin gancho
- el reconocimiento de voz no me gusta demasiado. tienes que esperar a que termine una locución para poder dar la orden (ej: cuando recibes una llamada te dice "recibiendo llamada de manolito garcía", y hasta que no termina la frase no puedes decir "contestar") y hay veces que no funciona
