ClearOne Chat 50 Speakerphone

The Chat™ 50 personal speaker phone is a USB-connected speakerphone that’s handy for use with Internet telephones, such as Skype or Vonage, VoIP softphones, such as Avaya, Cisco, Nortel, Web conferencing applications, such as LiveMeeting, Sametime, WebEx, instant messaging with audio chat, audio playback with media players, such as QuickTime, RealPlayer, Windows Media Player and PC-based gaming with TeamSpeak

PCMag reviews the Chat 50 and has given it an Editor’s Choice award, finding the speakerphone’s sound quality to be well worth the investment: “USB-connected speakerphones are nothing groundbreaking—ClearOne’s implementation, however, is. The Chat 50 feels like a business-grade product should: well made, durable, and professional. What amazes me most, however, is the Chat 50’s rich, full-bodied sound.”
