The Voyager Free 20 brings HP Poly's call design down to $129.95. Each earbud has three noise-canceling mics: a two-mic beamforming array that aims at your mouth, plus a third mic that switches on in windy conditions. HP adds AI noise reduction so the far end hears more of you and less of the room, and adaptive active noise canceling to cut what you hear. Multi-point connectivity pairs two devices at once and moves calls and music between them, and the case supports Qi wireless charging. Four ear tip sizes come in the box. Compared with the Free 60 series you give up the touchscreen case, the bundled USB adapter and the Teams certified version, and HP lists battery as up to 8 hours of listen time rather than talk time. For a remote worker who wants business-grade mics without a business-grade price, it is the cheapest route in this list.
