Orosound Tilde Pro Hybrid Bluetooth Office Headset (Discontinued Replaced By Tilde Evo)

Excellent Headphone

I am using it for the last 2 weeks, easy to use, works as expected, good ergonomics. The case could be a little bit better and the PC software has an interface very basic. Both items works, but could receive more attention considering the aspired product category.

Good headset for the office

Noise canceling in the headphones is very good. The microphone picks up too much back ground noise, also sounds like you are inside of a tin can, which is normal for headphone microphones. If you happen to be a passenger in vehicle moving down the road you can hear a popping sound from the noise canceling feature trying to adjust the widely changing air pressures, if someone opens a window it gets worse. Inside the office these would work great. But for listening to music outside side or inside of a vehicle the Bose 700 headsets are the best. For talking on the phone in noisy outside environments or inside a vehicle the Blue Parrot 250 is cheap and has the best noise canceling microphone, but you will have to jam an ear plug in the ear that is not covered by the headset.

OroSound good for office work

I have been using the OroSound for a couple of weeks so perhaps as I work with the tool, I may have different results. The boom mike is convenient and seems to block noise around me so that calls don't appear to notice any background noise. The boom mike is quite easy to remove. I like the ability to remove if I don't need it. My only concern with changing the small port cover; I am afraid it will be lost. For me, I put it in mesh where the dongle is supposed to to go. I personally struggle with the power key; It often turns itself on when in the case and inside my backpack. This implies to me that I really need to get a hard case (which isn't included) to truly protect the investment. I also tend to have a hard time turning on and off the headset not really getting the right amount of time on the power key. Often it goes into pairing mode. I also have a problem with the headset dropping off when I pick something up; I haven't had this problem with other on the ear headsets. The active noise canceling is not as good as my old Bose on the ear noise canceling headset. I do like the option of turning up or down the noise canceling, however. I also like the button that lets you talk with people around you, I find it quite helpful to interact with people around you when needed. I also downloaded the Link application. For me the upload over bluetooth did not work, making my headset a bit unusable. It turned my headest into a usb hard disk. After guessing at the French manual about manually resetting the firmware, I tried to download an older version of firmware off the website (which did not work; the link was broken). By looking at the file extension, I searched my laptop for the downloaded firmware and eventually ended up transferring the firmware manually over usb. For me, it would have been helpful to have some English troubleshooting section about this either on the headset advisor website or the orosound website. I might have gotten support for this from either OroSound or Headeset advisor but it was the weekend (and I assume they were both off). When working with teams, the mute button showed the mute status on the teams interface; on zoom it did not. Overall, this is a good headset if you are staying with it at an office desk or cubicle; If you are transporting it or moving with it (like I am), there are concerns about it falling off or turning on and draining the battery before you get to use it.
