Verdict

The Bang & Olufsen Cisco 980 is a premium wireless over-ear headset designed for business collaboration, featuring Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation and 6 geometrically placed beamforming microphones that eliminate the need for a physical boom arm. Built with luxury materials like grain leather and aluminum, the 282g headset offers Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity with multipoint support for up to two simultaneous devices and a battery life of up to 47 hours of listening or 23 hours of talk time on a single charge. Its main pros include superb audio fidelity across high-end codecs (aptX Adaptive, AAC), seamless Webex integration with enterprise-grade security, and a quick-charge feature providing 3 hours of use from a 10-minute charge. However, notable cons include its high retail price point of approximately $549, the lack of a dedicated charging dock, and a mobile app equalizer that uses a non-traditional quadrant interface rather than standard bands.
