DESIGN
At first glance, you know instantly that this speaker is meant for virtual meetings. With its black and gray compact design, the Poly Sync 20+ looks clean and professional. It comes with a BT600 USB Bluetooth adapter and lanyard for easy connectivity. The device is dust-resistant and protected against water spray from any direction. Small and lightweight, it is easy to bring along to offsite meetings.
You can wrap the USB cable of the speaker on the bottom part of the device, a clever move for packing up the speaker wire easily. Also at the bottom, are four rubber feet designed to keep the speaker firmly positioned so it does not slide.
The Poly sync 20+ is also not just a speaker but also a powerbank that can charge other devices via a USB Type-A port. Also on its side is a power button and Bluetooth button.
The top is where the speakers are placed together with a touch-sensitive control panel housing the volume up and down button, call and answer button, microphone mute, a rocket button for customization on the Poly lens app, and lastly, the Microsoft Teams button. There is also a status light bar along the length of the control panel. This glows up in different colors: green when there is an upcoming call, blue for a successful connection, and white for adjusting the volume of the speaker.

HONOR X8B
HONOR’s Xa-series smartphones impressed me last year. HONOR’s entry to mid-range lineup was reasonably priced and each model had its niche special feature. Among the standouts last year was HONOR X8a, an entry mid-ranger with a massive 100-megapixel camera that shot out the competition. This year, the HONOR X8b is a worthy successor to the X8a.
