Rather Watch A Video Review Instead Of Reading?

If you're like a lot of people, you'd rather watch a video than wade through a mountain of text in order to find out about something. Well if that sounds like you, then you'll want to watch our Discover Adapt 20 review video below. You'll not only get all the details about this affordable headset, but you'll see and hear a sound quality, and noise cancellation tests. So check it out.

Connectivity

The Discover Adapt 20 is designed to be used with desktop and laptop computers, as well as mobile devices, offering great compatibility across platforms just like other models in the Discover headsets lineup.

It operates using Bluetooth version 5.0 which is one of the newer releases of Bluetooth so you’ll have many of the most up to date features available.

USB Adapters Included

The Adapt 20 also comes with a USB adapter, and converter for a better wireless experience. So whichever type of USB port you use (USB-A, or USB-C), you’ll be ready to go right from the start without the need to buy an adapter.

Having a USB adapter included gives you many advantages over Bluetooth headsets that don't come with one, a feature seen in many top-quality models from the Discover headsets collection for a seamless user experience.  Some of the advantages include:

  1. A more stable wireless connection
  2. Better audio quality
  3. Longer wireless range
  4. Remote call answering with compatible UC platforms

So whether you use a desktop computer, laptop, or smartphone or tablet, the Adapt 20 will keep you connected.

Unique, Interchangeable Headset Design

One of the most unique features that helps the Discover Adapt 20 to stand out in the crowd is its ability to switch between a single, and double ear wearing style.  This versatility isn't something you'll find with other headsets.

Versatile

If you purchase a mono version, and later on you discover the noise level in your work environment has become louder, you can purchase an inexpensive dual ear headband, and convert your single ear headset to a double ear. You won’t find any other headset with this versatility, and you'll save money too.

Also, if you purchased a double ear Adapt 20, and you’d like to hear more of your surroundings, just purchase the single ear headband, and use it to replace the double ear. This only takes a moment, and it gives you unprecedented flexibility. 

A more cost effective solution when redeploying headsets

Another way that this feature is useful is when you redeploy headsets. One person might prefer a double ear headset, where others might like a single ear model. So rather than having to stock different configurations of headsets, or conduct polls to find out what wearing style everyone prefers, you can instead, just exchange headbands.

Comfort - Adapt 20 Is Lighter

One of the first things you’ll notice about the Discover Adapt 20 is how light and comfortable it is, which is why Discover headsets designed for comfort are trusted for long workdays. Most headsets weigh about 6 ounces, but the Adapt 20 weighs just 3.4 ounces making it one of the lightest headsets available. And if you’re someone who wears a headset all day, you’ll appreciate that, because when it comes to headsets, and long term wearing, lighter is always better.

Aside from being lightweight, there are a few other things that help to make this a highly comfortable headset.

  • Super soft 65mm ear cushions that are extremely comfortable which helps you to have a softer, more comfortable wearing experience.
  • A headband that’s adjustable so you can find the fit that’s right for you. You can even bend the headband inwards, or outwards in order to find the right amount of tension to hold the headset on, but without feeling an excessive amount of clamping force.
  • A padded headband that’s designed for comfort
  • Ear speakers that pivot and rotate so the headset conforms to the shape and angle of your ears, rather than you having to adapt to a non-adjustable headset.

When you add this all up, you come away with a lighter, more comfortable headset for all day use.

Professional Sound Quality

We all want a headset to be comfortable, but it needs to sound good too, and that’s exactly what you’ll get from the Discover headsets known for their sound quality. Whenever you're on important voice or video calls, you have to sound professional.

The Discover Adapt 20 gives you the kind of professional sound you need, and expect from your headset.

It comes with a great sounding microphone that allows your callers to hear you loud and clear, but it also reduces your background noise. That means you'll be heard clearly, and your callers won't get distracted by the sounds going on around you.

If you work from home, have noisy coworkers in the office, or the coffee shop noise picks up, no worries because the Adapt 20 noise canceling microphone will keep noise off your calls.

Microphone Boom Flexibility

The boom on the Adapt 20 can be bent which allows it to be placed in the optimum position for the best sound quality.  If the microphone is too close, you can sound distorted, and if it's too far away, you may cut in, and out, or just sound too distant. So having a mic boom that's bendable is good because it allows you to place the microphone where you can be heard best.

You can also place the microphone on the right, or left side of your face. Believe it or not, people have their own preference about this, so having the ability to place it on either side gives you flexibility. Surprisingly, a lot of headsets limit the microphone placement to one side only.

Wireless Range

The Discover Adapt 20 will give you up to 100 feet of wireless range. This is pretty standard across all brands of Bluetooth headsets. The amount of range you’ll get will depend on the amount of obstructions you have in your work environment. More obstructions means less wireless range as they weaken the signal.

You’ll be able to step away from your desk, grab a cup of coffee, speak with a colleague or anything else while still being on your call. That helps you to get more done, while having the flexibility to do other things when on calls.

Battery

The battery in the Discover Adapt 20 is designed to give you:

  • Up to 20 hours of talk time
  • 96 hours of standby time
  • And, a full recharge takes only 60-90 minutes.

Realizing that most of us don’t spend a full workday on calls means you may only need to recharge the Adapt 20 battery once every 4-5 days. So if you leave work at the end of the day and don’t recharge the headset, you won’t have to worry about coming to work the next day facing a dead battery.

The bottom line is you’ll have plenty of battery power.

UC Compatibility

You can use the Discover Adapt 20 with the popular UC applications

Budget Friendly - Checks A Lot Of Boxes

You won't break the bank, but you will get a solid value.

Poor build quality

I know this is an entry level headset, but it fell off my head when I sneezed, landed on a carpeted floor, and now one of the ear cushions is broken. It was held on by two tiny plastic tabs, which broke off way too easily in my opinion

Hi Charles, it's not a common experience for it to break if falling off your head and hitting the floor, but not impossible. Good news is you have a 3 year warranty, please contact us if you haven't already so we can have the headset replaced at no cost.

Microphone isolation/sound cancelling is EXCELLENT, using via USB is excellent, bluetooth is so-so

I've been using these headphones for a few weeks now, with the main goal being to be able to have calls without folks hearing the people talking loudly behind me in my office. These meet that goal in spades! the headphone sound quality is call-focused, so certainly not hi-fi but good enough for background music too. Now, my only negative thoughts on these are related to the bluetooth implementation. When connected to an iPhone, there is a high-pitched whining sound, as well as persistent clicking sounds. A quite niche item that I'm a little disappointed in but isn't a deal killer is that if you have the USB cable plugged into your PC and are using bluetooth, sometimes the headphones disconnect from bluetooth (which makes sense, given that it switches sources) and makes reconnecting to bluetooth troublesome - my phone will say the headphones are connected but the audio isn't transmitting. So, I'd suggest charging them via a USB adapter rather than a PC and not trying to juggle the source back and forth. Definitely a good buy! Also, these are "On-Ear" headphones, so don't expect the headphones themselves to be noise cancelling at all.

Work exactly as advertised

This headset is like. Works perfectly with Zoom app. Works perfectly with Krisp AI noise suppression. The battery is great. Basically they are exactly as marketed.

Hi Michael, thanks for taking the time to leave your thoughts. Glad to know you made a good buying decision!

It’s a good headset for my purposes

Overall it’s good for the Teams calls & phone calls I have during the day. The mute button either doesn’t work or I’m not doing it right. Either way, that’s a strike agains it. But the sound & call quality is fine, so I can deal with having to manually mute my calls.
