![]() Plantronics designed the BackBeat Sense with millennials in mind, so its laid back styling over the BackBeat Pro makes perfect sense. Over on the right ear cup, we have its microUSB port, 3.5mm port, physical power switch, and a multi-function button. Adjusting the volume is easily done, too, by just twisting the outside ring of the ear cup clockwise or counterclockwise, which is a different take from what we’re used to. With the left ear cup, it features physical controls for pause/play, track forward, and track reverse all on the outside. Adding to its comfort, the headband and ear cups are all adjustable to properly conform to almost any head size! That’s because the cushioning around the ear cups and headband aren’t as stuffed, but nevertheless, the subtle loose fit of the BackBeat Sense is still usable for leisurely walks and runs. Thankfully, it feels comfortable for the most part when it’s worn, but it’s not as cushiony as the BackBeat Pro. Small accents, like the brown color of its cushioning and mesh grill surrounding each ear cup, help to even out and balance its particular styling. Now, the material doesn’t scream high-quality, but the metal framed headband allows for some flexibility without being too loose to the point that it comes off with subtle movements. ![]() Its body is constructed mostly out of plastic, which is available in either white or black. Aesthetically, we wouldn’t classify it as premium or modern, but rather, it’s a contemporary design that’s neither boring nor too over-the-top stylish. While it still sports some of the same design characteristics, it doesn’t look or feel as over imposing, so it’s not accompanied with any bulkiness either. Call it the mini-version of the BackBeat Pro, as the BackBeat Sense is essentially a lighter and more compact version of its esteemed sibling.
