Beside The Stationary Or On The Go
The box contains simple setup instructions, very important if you are deploying this to a C-Level, along with a QR code to the website if you are handing it off to someone with a clue. The stand itself looks professional, the light indicating the headset is charging is obvious, but muted as opposed to the impressive glow which emanates from gaming headsets with similar features.
If you need to pack up and move from your workspace, the EPOS Impact 1060 comes with a soft carrying case which not only holds the headset but has a secure pocket for the dongle and short USB-C cable. The headset can connect via the dongle, directly through USB-C, or via Bluetooth. The basic Bluetooth connection is not supported by the EPOS Connect app, however the headset does it need it to function. It has manual controls for volume, ANC, answering or initiating calls and the microphone automatically mutes when you raise it, so if you’d rather not deploy yet another app to secure and support, you do not have to do so.
Pick a single connection method, pairing via Bluetooth whilst simultaneously connecting with the dongle is not recommended. On the other hand, the EPOS Impact 1060 can be paired with up to three active devices at once, so you can use it to answer calls on your laptop, your work phone and your personal phone without changing a setting. It is capable of remembering up to eight devices, pair a ninth and the first paired device is dropped.
