BENEFITS OF USING A SPEAKERPHONE

How do I use poly Sync 20?

With so many Poly solutions certified by Microsoft Teams, it’s not always easy to make a decision about which device is best suited to you. We took this opportunity to breakdown some of the key benefits of using a portable speakerphone for your remote collaboration needs.

1. Freedom to Move

Don’t get us wrong, headsets are great. But everyone has their own way that they like to work and sometimes it’s necessary to have the freedom to get up and move around in the home office and not wear a headset all day. When it’s time for a change of scenery, the Poly Sync’s 20-hour battery life is in for the long-haul. And don’t worry, we made sure to make it dust and water-resistant, so you can get up and go worry-free – even if right now, all that means is moving to your patio.

2. Share Great Quality

Another notable benefit that speakerphones provide is that multiple people in the room can join in on a call and benefit from high-quality audio that just isn’t available with your computer’s speakers. The Sync 20’s smart multi-microphone array tracks the speaker so the person on the other end of the call can remain focused on what’s being said and keep echoes and unwanted noise out.

3. Use it in Your Off Time

The Sync 20 is not just a speakerphone, it’s also a high-performance speaker that can be used for listening to music. That’s right – the bass reflex system that ensures high-quality, natural-sounding voice is also responsible for making your tunes sound great in your downtime.

4. Customize Your Collaboration Experience

The Poly Sync 20 works the way you do thanks to a programable button that puts your favorite function at your fingertips. Create shortcuts to easily play/pause music, redial the last number called, and bring up voice assistant to streamline your workflow — it’s up to you.

5. Multi-Functionality

Aside from being a speakerphone and music speaker, this little Swiss-Army Knife of a device can also be used to keep your smart phone charged up and ready for your next move. The Poly Sync 20 comes in two different versions – the Poly Sync 20 and the Poly Sync 20+. Both versions include the ability to connect to your smartphone through Bluetooth and to your computer via an integrated USB cable. The Poly Sync 20+ includes the BT600 USB Bluetooth adaptor, which lets users wirelessly connect to their computer.

POLY SYNC + MICROSOFT TEAMS

No matter where or how you work, Poly has a Teams-ready solution to fit your workstyle.

Remote working – a company policy that was once the envy of so many office workers is now the norm around much of the globe. Today, remote or hybrid working is no longer limited to trendy digital nomads or knowledge workers in Silicon Valley. The world has changed, and most of us are now working from home and many will continue to do so indeterminately. Something that hasn’t changed is our need to collaborate with our peers and keep business on track. The Microsoft Teams certified Poly Sync 20 USB/Bluetooth® smart speakerphone offers remarkable audio to elevate your remote collaboration experiences from anywhere – and is now shipping.

WHY THE POLY SYNC 20 IS THE BEST SPEAKERPHONE FOR WFH?

Poly Sync 20 is the smallest member of the Poly Sync Family which also includes the Poly Sync 40, for flexible/huddle rooms, and the Poly Sync 60 for small to medium conference rooms. Here are seven reasons why Poly Sync 20 is the best speakerphone for working from home.

1 – UNPARALLELED AUDIO QUALITY

Poly took its more than 50 years of audio heritage – beginning with NASA and Apollo 11 – and baked it all into one modern device. Not only will you sound great to your caller, but they’ll sound like they’re right in the room with you. To bring this audio experience to life, Poly’s multi-microphone array reduces both echo and unwanted background noise – keeping the focus on who’s speaking. And when it comes time to work together, Poly’s superior audio means that people on both ends of the call can speak simultaneously without muting each other, making conversations feel natural and you won’t miss a word.

2 – SPEAKERPHONE AND HIGH-PERFORMANCE MUSIC SPEAKER

Anyone who’s been working from home over the past several months can relate to the feeling that the lines between work and home life have blurred substantially. One area in which this is a good thing is with business-grade technology that can be seamlessly integrated for leisure purposes. The Poly Sync 20 is an all-in-one device that carries you from productivity to play. Its bass reflex system with dual-passive radiators ensures high-quality, natural-sounding voice while on calls and deep bass for jamming out to your favorite playlist between calls.

3 – LONG-LASTING BATTERY LIFE AND DEVICE CHARGING

Poly Sync’s 20-hour battery life lets you work on-the-go all day. The speaker’s USB port connects to your smartphone, allowing you to stay charged up and ready for your next move.

4 – BLUETOOTH OR USB CONNECTIVITY

The Poly Sync 20 comes in two different versions – the Poly Sync 20 and the Poly Sync 20+. Both versions include the ability to connect to your smartphone through Bluetooth and to your computer via an integrated USB cable. The Poly Sync 20+ includes the BT600 USB Bluetooth adaptor, which lets users wirelessly connect to their computer.

5 – PORTABILITY MEETS DURABILITY

We designed the Sync 20 to be taken with you wherever you go — it’s slim, light, and comes with a carrying case and wrist lanyard. In order to be your ultimate sidekick, we knew that it also needed to be durable enough to withstand your life on-the-go. That’s why we made the Poly Sync 20 dust and water-resistant – which means it’s also easy to wipe-down to keep clean and germ-free.

6 – CUSTOM CONTROLS AND LED INDICATORS

Streamlined and intuitive functionality are central to the Poly Sync 20’s design. Now you can switch between your favorite functions – such as play or pause music, last number redial, voice assistant, and more – with the touch of the programmable button. At a glance, Poly Sync’s highly visible LED light indicator bar lets you know the call status – even from a distance.

7 – CERTIFIED FOR USE WITH YOUR FAVORITE PLATFORM

The Poly Sync 20 works seamlessly with your favorite collaboration and communication apps. The Poly Sync 20 is Zoom certified, so you can count on a seamless Zoom meeting experience, every time. Additionally, a Microsoft Teams certified version of the Poly Sync 20 is available. This version incorporates a dedicated Teams button so you can evoke the Teams app with a simple tap.
