Active Noise Canceling & OpenMic Technology
Our active noise canceling system uses dual microphones to detect and neutralize low-frequency ambient noise — airplane engines, traffic hum, office chatter. The result is a quiet bubble where your music, podcasts, or calls come through crystal clear without cranking the volume.
When you need to hear your surroundings, press the dedicated OpenMic button. This feature pipes ambient sound through the headphones instantly, letting you catch gate announcements or have a quick conversation without removing the headphones. It’s the same technology travelers rely on in our Bluetooth headset lineup, now built into full over-ear cans.
All-Day Battery Life & Dual Connectivity
We built the Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 around a 24-hour rechargeable battery so you never scramble for a charger mid-flight. Class 1 Bluetooth extends wireless range up to 330 feet — roam your home or office without dropouts.
Dual-Mode Pairing
Pair the BackBeat PRO 2 with two devices at once. Take a call on your phone while still connected to your laptop, or switch seamlessly between your tablet and smartphone. Our multipoint technology handles the handoff automatically, so you’re never juggling Bluetooth menus.
Memory Foam Comfort & Premium Materials
We wrap each earcup in protein leather over dense memory foam that molds to the shape of your head. The headband uses the same cushioned design, distributing weight evenly to eliminate pressure points during long listening sessions.
The pivot hinges fold flat for compact storage in the included hard-shell case. At 10.6 ounces, the BackBeat PRO 2 balances durability with portability — sturdy enough for daily commutes but light enough to pack in a carry-on.

Common questions about the BackBeat PRO 2
The BackBeat PRO 2 delivers up to 24 hours of continuous wireless playback on a single charge. Actual battery life depends on volume level and whether active noise canceling is enabled, but most users report getting close to the full 24 hours during typical mixed use.
Yes, we include a 3.5mm audio cable in the box. When the battery runs out or when you want to use the headphones with a device that doesn’t have Bluetooth, simply plug in the cable. Note that active noise canceling requires battery power even in wired mode.
The headphones support voice assistant activation through the multifunction button on the right earcup. Press and hold the button to trigger Siri, Google Assistant, or Cortana on your paired device. The built-in microphones pick up your voice clearly for hands-free commands.
OpenMic actively amplifies ambient sound through the headphones so you hear your surroundings more clearly than you would with just ANC off. It’s useful for quick conversations or announcements without removing the headphones. Turning ANC off simply stops noise canceling but doesn’t enhance outside sounds.
Class 1 Bluetooth provides wireless range up to 330 feet in open space without walls or interference. In a typical home or office with walls and obstacles, you can expect reliable connection up to about 100 feet. Range depends on your environment and the Bluetooth version of your source device.
The earcup cushions are designed for long-term durability, but they are not user-replaceable. For service or replacement parts, contact our support team. Most customers report the protein leather and memory foam holding up well after years of daily use.
Yes, dual-mode pairing lets you connect the headphones to two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. This feature is ideal for keeping your phone and laptop connected — take a call on your phone while staying paired to your computer for music or video calls.
