there’s really no excuse not to have a decent conference phone in meeting rooms. i’ve seen them in use since 2000 at least, and personally purchased one that wasn’t even $1k.
we had meetings and calls with remote people long before covid.
- cs02rm0 3y agoI've never seen (or rather heard) one that worked well enough. Most recent one I've used was a Meeting Owl 3 which I think was in that $1k ballpark. It has quite a novel way of picking up on the 360 camera who it thinks is talking which works pretty well, but the audio just isn't anywhere near as good as everyone having their own mic attached. I'm not sure anything could be.
