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

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.

I love this speaker! I use it for my work meetings. I love having a physical button that I can push to mute my microphone. The output quality is amazing. I also like having physical buttons on the speaker to adjust the volume. As far as I know the microphone quality is good too. No one has complained about my microphone in my meetings.

An excellent portable speaker/mic. Perfect size for throwing in the back pack as part of your daily routine and/or as a travel companion. Works with Teams, as certified, but also Zoom and WebEx. It's a solid speaker for music or media too. Works flawlessly with my MacBook, Samsung tablet and Samsung phone.

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.

Top notch product, does a fantastic job for meetings and day to day calls. Highly recommend!!

Better than built in speakers and microphone but sound is muddled and not as clear as desired. Replaced with Yealink SP92 and it’s a considerable improvement in clarity and sound quality.

I needed a portable speaker for using with teleconferencing. This is perfect. The size and design is nice, the cord management is clever, the speaker has a perfect mid-range sound that is great for voices, and the microphone works very well. Note that this would not be a good choice for a general-purpose speaker, as the sound is really balanced for the midrange. Also, the cord is short, so this would not work with a desktop computer where the speaker needed to be placed further away from the computer.

The speaker worked perfectly while it lasted. The sound quality was very good for meetings and calls, and it was easy to use with Microsoft Teams. I bought it in February 2025 and used it regularly without issues. Unfortunately, around December the USB-C cable started having connection problems. Sometimes it disconnects or stops working unless you move the cable, which makes it unreliable for work meetings. It’s a great device in terms of audio quality and functionality, but the cable durability was disappointing. I expected it to last longer.

When you press the teams button nothing happens !!!!! Very strange from a product that is claimed to be CERTIFIED.

Muy buen producto, esencialmente para Teams pero sirve para cualquier tipo de videollamadas así como altavoz para música en cualquier dispositivo que tenga entrada usb c. Tiene el volumen necesario pero en espacios pequeños es más que suficiente.

Sound is great and work perfectly for Teams meeting. Case protection for traveling and easy connect.

Really well made conference speaker for WFH set up. I was very sceptical about the mic quality and background noise cancellation. But it very well met my expectations and is better than expected and better than the YouTube reviews say. It easily cancels out non-human background noise like Indian household chores noises like pressure cookers, Ceiling Fans, TV outside the work room etc. The speakers are very good and enough for conference calls at full volume and lot better than inbuilt laptop speakers. If you don't mind a hard wired, non-bluetooth conference speakers and if this is within your budget, go for it. I have tried Plantronics Sync 20 and returned it cos it didn't cancel background noises at all. But this one does a very good job at it an your voice reaches the other side clearly. Happy with this purchase. The shipping took time, but understandable considering it is being imported. It is also costlier than US for the same reason. Thanks to the seller for making it available in Indian market .

Authentic and great for meeting
