AverMediaAS311 AI Speakerphone - AI-Powered Noise Suppression, Enhanced Voice Pickup, USB Plug and Play, Easy Setup, Conference Microphone and Speaker for Working from Home

The best thing about the speakerphone is it’s portable and small, fits in the palm of your hand and it’s so easy to use. In these times of hybrid work environments, it’s perfect carrying back-and-forth from the office. Comes with a nice easy to pocket carrying case. Very compact the USB cord you use to plug into your laptop conveniently wraps around the unit. I didn’t even have to program or install a driver. Plug and play as soon as I plugged it into my laptop. It picked it up as the default speaker and microphone and started working right away. It can also function as a docking station, with the HDMI, C & A ports in the back allowing you connect a monitor or a keyboard or mouse, or even a WebCam seamlessly. The buttons are easy to push but I would have loved some haptic feedback on them.

The AVerMedia Pocket Speakerphone is actually a pocket device. I have used a few other devices that tried to suggest they were a "pocket" speakerphone, but their size was too big for nearly all pockets. This device delivers on the small size while giving you the features you need for a speakerphone device. My setup was in a Teams environment and the sound quality was good and the noise reduction was very good. The sound quality of the speaker is limited based on the devices size. I guess that is the tradeoff you need to make for the smaller size. This is a perfect device for a smaller home office, a hotel room on the go, or a small conference room. I removed one star because of the limitations of the speaker which I know is limited by the size but needs to be part of the consideration when you are adding a device like this.

コンパクトで机上に配置してもさほど邪魔になりません。マイクとしての性能はそこそこ、卓上にある分には余程意図的に小声で話さない限り拾えないということはありません。スピーカーとしてもそこそこの性能です、格段に奇麗とは言い難いですが、そこそこクリアです。スピーカーマイクとしてはそこそこですが、サイズや使い勝手からするとお買い得ではないかと思います。

I really like this speaker as it's so much better than my computer speakers. You're able to mute yourself and turn up/ down the volume on the speaker itself or the computer. What I don't like, is that the volume doesn't go up on the speaker super high. So you wouldn't be able to use it in a conference room so everyone can hear. I use it at my desk and it works great, but if I move too far away it gets difficult to hear. Otherwise, this speaker works great for meetings, movies, etc.

こうしたスピーカーマイクはいくつか所有していますが、当該製品はその中でも一番高価なものです。正直もっと大きなものを想像していましたが、写真の通り極めて小さいです。その他製品の評価は以下です。【良い点】・ボディは堅牢。そこそこ重量があるので安定している。・USBタイプC端子なので、ケーブルに汎用性がある。・マイクの感度は問題ない。実用２メートルくらいまでなら十分使用可能。・音量の状態、ミュートの状態をLEDのレベルインジケーターで示してくれるのは分かりやすい。・AIノイズキャンセリングは、特定の環境騒音を抑えてくれる。使用環境では見事にキーボードタッチ音が消えた。【今一つな点】・本体が小さいので当然だが、音声のリアルさは大型のものに及ばない。・エコーキャンセラーの効果はほとんどない。・取扱説明書の日本語説明が簡単すぎて機能を使いきれない。スピーカーマイクとしては十分な性能を有していますが、この価格ほどの価値はないと思います。１万円以下の製品でも同等の性能を得られるでしょう。
