ASCII.jp Speakerphone "Anker PowerConf" review active in video conferences

The need for telecans in business and Zoom drinking in private has skyrocketed, and video conferencing systems have become commonplace. You'll need a microphone and speakers, but smartphones, tablets, and laptops already have them, so you can get started.

However, if the performance of the microphone is insufficient, the sound will be difficult to hear. Especially when there are multiple people, it's hard to tell who is speaking. Aside from drinking Zoom, telecans will hinder your business. Therefore, we recommend speakerphones. This time, we will review "Anker PowerConf", which enables clear calls by gathering voices from all directions even in meetings of up to 8 people.

With "Anker PowerConf", you can talk with clear voice even in a video conference where multiple people participate from one place.

Full of features for clear voice communication in video conferences

"Anker PowerConf" was released on February 28th by Anker, which is famous for its mobile battery. The price is 12,980 yen at Amazon.co.jp. With a Bluetooth-compatible speakerphone, it supports tele-can for business trips and remote work.

The best selling point is the sound collection performance. Six omnidirectional microphones are placed 360 degrees to catch all the sound around the Anker PowerConf. In addition, the auto gain control function adjusts the volume to a uniform level regardless of where you are sitting or the volume of your voice, making it easier for the other party to hear. The echo canceling function and noise reduction function make the sound quality clear.

Even for free, it is a tele-can that reduces the resolution of communication, and if the sound quality is poor, it will put a lot of stress on the other party. I want to pay attention to the sound quality delivered to the other party.

I often go out alone with Telekan, but I also participate in Zoom drinking with my family, and sometimes I send audio from the interviewee in real time to share the conversation with the editorial department. The price and design were good, so I bought it.

When I opened the package, there was a speaker in the carrying case. I was wondering that it wasn't included because there was no USB cable in the case, but I used my own cable for a while. When I pulled out the case to write this article, it turned out that the cable was inside the cardboard that I thought was a cushion. Don't overlook it like I do.

The price of the speakerphone "Anker PowerConf" is 12,980 yen.

Thank you for the carrying case included

The design matches the business, and it is well made. The size is 124 x 124 x 28 mm and the weight is 340 g. It's a little heavy because it has a 6700mAh battery. Multi-function buttons, volume up / down buttons, mute buttons, and call buttons are arranged on the top surface. It has a power button and a Bluetooth button on the front, and a USB-A output port, a USB-C input port, and an AUX port on the back.

There are two types of USB ports, but only USB-C can be used as a speakerphone. The attached cable is also a USB-C & USB-A type. "Anker PowerConf" works as a mobile battery, but the USB-A port is used at that time. Don't make a mistake. For Macbook Pros that only have USB-C, you will need to prepare a USB-C cable separately or connect via Bluetooth.
