Microsoft announces new Surface Headphones update

   The new update will go live later this month

Microsoft has recently announced a new firmware update for the Surface Headphones 2+ that come with Microsoft Teams certification via Bluetooth.

In other words, the device is now fully certified for Microsoft teams, allowing users to be provided with on-device controls and superior audio quality during their meetings.

The new firmware update will start rolling out on July 28, and according to Microsoft, it will be available on any Windows PC or Mac. Needless to say, it’ll also go live on Surface devices.

The update will be shipped via the Surface app through the Microsoft Store, while on Apple devices, users will have to install the Microsoft Accessory Updater tool that’s already listed on the Mac App Store. When the device is connected to the computer, the update is automatically downloaded and installed.

The firmware version that you must be running to get the feature is 1.0.7.44 (or later).

Here are the features included in the new firmware update, as per Microsoft:  

  • Certified for Microsoft Teams: With the firmware update, Surface Headphones 2+ is the first Teams-certified device for native Bluetooth, enabling you to enjoy the best Microsoft Teams experience, from exceptional audio quality for calls and media to intuitive, on-device controls for Microsoft Teams.
  • Synchronized Controls for Microsoft Teams: Bring Microsoft Teams to the forefront with the dedicated Microsoft Teams button, answer/end calls, and control your volume and mute state directly on the headset without the dongle.
  • Experience best of Microsoft Teams with or without the dongle: Those who forget or misplace their dongle will still have all the benefits of a certified experience while collaborating on calls without it. Plus, free up a port on your device!
  • Flexibility to meet your needs: You can still use the dongle in crowded workspaces or for a dedicated connection when using multiple Bluetooth devices. With a dongle, different light states indicate whether you are connected, muted/unmuted, or receiving an incoming call.

Surface Headphones 2+ is not available for non-commercial customers and can only be purchased from the authorized Surface resellers.
