Overview
The latest generation office headset
Poly Focus 625 is a stereo headset for people who spend most of the day on calls and in meetings and alternate between the office and home. Against the older Voyager Focus 2 range it has a slimmer body, a hideaway boom microphone and ear cushions shaped to the ear, with a pressure-relief gap in the headband for all-day wear.
Hybrid noise cancelling and transparency mode
Active noise cancelling is hybrid, combining microphones outside and inside the ear cup. A button switches to transparency mode, where the headset lets ambient sound through, so the user does not have to take it off to hear a colleague at the next desk. The choice has a direct effect on battery life, see Battery and charging.
Smart sensors and signalling
The headset knows when the user puts it on and takes it off. The boom microphone rotates through 135° and hides away in the headband, so the headset looks like a pair of headphones outside a call. An indicator light shows colleagues that the user is on a call.
Strengths and limits
Strengths
Six microphones and hybrid ANC, suited to open plan offices
Transparency mode, so the user does not have to take the headset off
BT700 adapter and USB-A adapter are included
Two-year manufacturer warranty, longer than on Poly conferencing devices
Limits and what to tell the customer
The order code decides both the foldable design and the charging stand, not a setting. See the variants table above.
With ANC and the indicator on, talk time drops from 30 to 25 hours.
The headset is stereo, so it covers both ears. Where the user needs one ear free without switching, consider the mono Voyager 4310.
We do not carry a standalone charging stand for this model; it is decided by the order code.
⚑ atlantis note
Which code to order
Two things decide it, both at the point of order. The foldable design is only C56XSAA#AC3, the Focus 625 Fold, and it is the only one with a USB-C to 3.5 mm audio cable in the box for a plane or older equipment. The charging stand is only C56XXAA#AC3. The base C56XPAA#AC3 charges by cable.
Focus 625 or Voyager Focus 2
Focus 625 is the new generation. Offer it where the customer is choosing for the first time or refreshing a whole deployment. Voyager Focus 2 makes sense when the customer is adding to an existing fleet and wants to keep accessories, above all ear cushions, common.
Ear cushions are a consumable
On headsets worn full time, plan for cushion replacement. Spare cushions for the Focus 625 have their own order code, which we are happy to confirm against the current price list. Cushions from the Voyager Focus range do not fit the Focus 625.

Good fit
A noisy office or open plan, a user with a heavy load of calls and meetings, alternating between office and home, a requirement for a modern look and all-day comfort.
Check
Whether the user needs the foldable design for travel. Whether a charging stand is wanted. How many hours a day the headset will be in use. Whether the customer already runs the Voyager Focus range.
Consider another model
Voyager 4310 for a mono form, Voyager Free 60 for earbuds, the Savi range for DECT and contact centres, Voyager Focus 2 to extend an existing fleet.
The "Check" and "Consider another model" cards come from the experience of the atlantis team.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the three order codes?
The headset is the same. C56XPAA#AC3 is the base non-foldable design, C56XSAA#AC3 is the foldable Focus 625 Fold and adds a USB-C to 3.5 mm audio cable, C56XXAA#AC3 is non-foldable and adds a charging stand.
Is there a Microsoft Teams version?
There is no separate Teams version of the Focus 625; all three codes are universal. The headset has a Microsoft Teams button in every design and the series is certified for Teams, Zoom and Google Meet.
How long does the headset last?
Up to 25 hours of talk time with noise cancelling and the indicator on, up to 30 hours with both off. For listening, up to 42 hours with ANC and up to 52 hours without. Ten minutes of cable charging gives 4 hours of talk time.
What is transparency mode?
The opposite of noise cancelling. The headset lets ambient sound through, so the user hears a colleague at the next desk without taking it off. It is switched by a button on the headset.
How does it differ from the Voyager Focus 2?
Focus 625 is the newer generation. It has a hideaway boom microphone, hybrid ANC and transparency mode. The Voyager Focus 2 has a rotating boom and three levels of noise cancelling without transparency mode. Ear cushions of the two ranges are not interchangeable.
