Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Plantronics CS50-USB Wireless Headset for PC VoIP SoftphonesCustomer Review: Plantronics CS50-USB wireless headset works extremely well Summary: 5 Stars
The Plantronics CS50-USB wireless headset works extremely well with Dragon NaturallySpeaking Professional software! This wireless headset is comfortable and it allows me to travel a considerable distance away from the computer to dictate without significant degradation of signal. The system will accurately transcribe my dictations when I am four rooms away from my computer and even when I'm outside the building. This wireless headset works as well with my system as the microphone originally supplied with the Dragon NaturallySpeaking software (Andrea Antinoise NC91). Both microphones achieved a very high score when training the Dragon NaturallySpeaking software. I use the wireless Plantronics CS50-USB as my primary microphone because it is so much more convenient to work hands-free at a considerable distance from my computer.
This device can easily be transported from my desktop computer to my laptop computer by moving the USB base unit from one computer to the other. Most of the time I use the system my desktop computer because it's faster, and I've done more software training training on the desktop computer.
I usually use the included charger to keep the microphone battery charged even when the computer is turned off. The microphone base unit is plugged into a computer USB port. If the computer is turned on the USB port will charge the microphone and the charger is not necessary. The charger can be optionally plugged into the base unit at the same time as the USB port. The microphone battery maintains its charge well, and has not had problems running out of battery power even on long dictations. In between dictations, I replaced the microphone into its convenient base unit that keeps it charged.
The combination of this headphone and Dragon Naturally-Speaking Professional software has dramatically that improved my ability to produce high-quality transcriptions with very fast turnaround time. After training this software to recognize technical and medical terms, I'm now able to achieve much better accuracy on complex dictated documents than was possible with most medical transcriptionists I have utilized. In addition to better accuracy on technical terms, the system instantaneously transcribes complex documents and allows me to edit my work while I'm still thinking about the content I've just dictated.
This microphone provides the advantage of mobility that allows me to to move from area to area within the office without losing significant signal while I'm away for my computer. This feature is much handier than dictating into a voice recorder and downloading when I return to the computer.
This microphone features a mute switch on the earpiece, and it is also excellent at screening out ambient noise even when not muted. The microphone does not usually transcribe things other people say (the unit apparently uses noise cancellation between the microphone and the earpiece and only records sounds spoken by me). The system is even smart enough that it does not record my nonverbal sounds when I cough or sneeze,
In summary, the Plantronics CS 50-USB wireless headset admirably performs its role as a team member with Dragon naturally speaking professional software when utilized on a fast computer. This is one of the best purchases I've made in the last several years!
