The headband is slightly flexible and is covered in soft leather so doesn’t put too much pressure on your ears or your head. All these designs are inherently Bluetooth, meaning they will work with existing internal laptop adapters and the USB wired connection without the need for any dongle. EPOS Adapt 260 review: An extremely agile headset that is smart, discreet and helps you make the most out of meetings With a width of 200mm, a height of 165mm and a depth of 58mm it's smaller and thinner than most headsets meaning it’s less distracting and noticeable when on video meetings. Specifically, the righthand side of the headset is dominants control, and to achieve this, it is physically larger. The difference is only about 3mm if measured from the outside of the band to the inside of the cushion. That’s enough to place the controls around the right earpiece and squeeze the microphone boom on the inside of the band.

While the headset sadly does not come with any active noise cancelling for listening but the ear cups do offer some weak passive noise cancellation.

There are few aspects of these Adapt 260 that we need to discuss under the banner of useability. Let’s start with how easy they are to use. Using the provided Bluetooth dongle, the headset is automatically connected once you insert that into a running system and power them on. The power button is also the Bluetooth pairing button, so if you need to pair it to a different adapter, you can initiate that process with the same button. Using USB-C on the headset is an intelligent choice, as there isn’t a wrong way to insert the cable, and it’s a very positive connection. It also allows those that use a USB-C charged laptop to charge the headset using the same charger. In useBoth left and right earcups support 90-degree rotation which helps get a more precision fit as well as flatten the 260s profile. The 260 has a simple, sleek design for a pair of over-ear headphones, and feels comfortable even when worn for an extended period and thankfully didn’t get too hot or sweaty either.

The headphones have leatherette ear pads for comfort over long periods of use, with the built-in 3.7V DC lithium polymer battery providing standby power of up to 62days, listening time of up to 46hours, and talking time of up to 39hours (each with ANC turned off). Charge time is 2hours and 30minutes. Our perception of noise-cancelling in these devices has been recently coloured by reviewing the Bose 700 UC, which given the price of those, might be an unkind comparison.
