Plantronics BackBeat Sense review: light, long-lasting and great sounding Bluetooth headphones

New wireless headphones are comfortable, have great controls and automatically pause the music when taken off your head

The latest Bluetooth headphones from Plantronics sound great, last ages and won’t break the bank.

You may not have heard of Plantronics, but the US firm first made headsets for pilots and Nasa, including the headsets through which Neil Armstrong spoke the immortal words “that’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.

Pros: light, comfortable, long battery, good sound, strong connection, connect to two devices simultaneously

Cons: poor isolation, sense system sometimes glitchy, no NFC
