Yealink Bluetooth Headsets: BH70 vs BH71 vs BH74 vs BH78

A Yealink Bluetooth headset for office work in Singapore comes down to four families: the Yealink BH70 MS (mono S$140.40, stereo S$166.05) for everyday Teams calls, the earhook Yealink BH71 (from S$120.00, up to S$410.40 for the Workstation Pro) for people who live on the phone, the Yealink BH74 MS (S$186.30, or S$197.10 with charging stand) when you need Active Noise Cancellation in an open-plan office, and the over-ear Yealink BH78 MS (S$318.60 with stand) for hybrid workers who want the deepest ANC and the longest battery. All four are Bluetooth 5.3 headsets that pair with a PC through the BT51 USB dongle in the box and with a smartphone natively, and the MS (Microsoft Teams) variants appear on Microsoft's list of devices Certified for Microsoft Teams.

Yealink BH70 vs BH71 vs BH74 vs BH78 at a glance

Prices are SourceIT's listed figures on 22 Oct 2026 and the product pages carry the live price. Battery figures are Yealink's own ratings and depend on volume and busylight use. Yealink's standard warranty applies; confirm the term for your SKU when requesting a quote.

Does the Yealink BH74 work with Microsoft Teams?

Yes. The Yealink BH74 MS is listed by Microsoft as Certified for Microsoft Teams, and Yealink's product page adds that it is certified for Microsoft Teams Premium Open Office, the stricter microphone test for noisy shared spaces. The same Microsoft list carries the BH70, BH71, BH71 Pro and BH78. The MS variant adds a dedicated Teams button that raises the client, joins a meeting with one press and shows presence through the busylight; the UC variant works with Teams, Zoom, Webex, 3CX and SIP/UC softphones without that button. If the organisation runs Microsoft 365, order MS; on a mixed Zoom or SIP/UC estate, order UC and keep the fleet consistent.

Which Yealink headset has ANC: BH70, BH74 or BH78?

Only the BH74 and BH78 have Active Noise Cancellation. The BH70 uses three microphones with beamforming to clean up your outgoing voice, which is what the other party hears, but it does not cancel the noise you hear. The BH74 adds hybrid ANC built on four microphones and an ear-fit design, with Yealink rating the headset at up to 32 hours of talk time with ANC enabled. The BH78 goes further with Adaptive Hybrid ANC that Yealink rates at up to 35 dB of reduction across low, mid and high frequencies, three modes (Medium ANC, Ambient Sound and Adaptive ANC) and AI noise cancellation on the microphone side that it says removes up to 98 per cent of background distraction. For a hot desk beside a busy corridor, pick the BH74; for a headset that travels between home, office and client sites, specify the foldable over-ear BH78.

How long does the battery last on each Yealink Bluetooth headset?

Yealink's spec sheets give these figures. BH70: up to 35 hours of talk time with the busylight off (28 hours with it on), up to 43 hours of music and up to 22 days standby, with a full charge in up to 90 minutes. BH71: up to 10 hours of talk time from the 160 mAh cell, 11 hours of music and 9 days standby, charged in up to 90 minutes; the BH71 Pro and Workstation Pro ship with the BHC71P charging case, which Yealink says adds around 20 hours for a combined headline of 30 hours. BH74: up to 32 hours of talk time, 65 hours of music, 20 days standby and a 90-minute charge, with a five-minute fast charge giving about 45 minutes of listening. BH78: up to 38 hours of talk time with ANC and busylight off, up to 27 hours with both on, up to 120 hours of music, 21 days standby and a charge time of up to 130 minutes from its 850 mAh battery; five minutes on the charger gives about four hours of talking. For a full-time call handler the BH70 or BH74 covers a working week on one charge; the BH71 is a daily-charge device unless you buy a Pro with the case.

Bluetooth multipoint, range and the BT51 dongle

Every model in this comparison supports two simultaneous Bluetooth connections and remembers up to eight paired devices, so a user can leave the headset connected to both the laptop and a mobile and answer whichever rings. Rated range is up to 50 m for the BH70, BH74 and BH78 when used with the dongle, up to 40 m for the BH71 earhook, and up to 75 m for the BH71 Workstation and Workstation Pro because the BHB710 station acts as the radio. These are Yealink's ideal-condition ratings; expect less through partition walls and dense Wi-Fi. The dongle matters: a laptop's internal Bluetooth is shared with the mouse and Wi-Fi and tends to drop audio, while the BT51 gives the headset its own radio and is what the Teams certification was tested with. The BH70, BH74 and BH78 ship with a BT51 (USB-C with a USB-A adapter on the C/A SKUs), the BH71 Pro and Workstation Pro ship with a BT51A, and the base BH71 and BH71 Workstation ship without one. If you need a spare dongle for an older Yealink headset, the Yealink BT50 Bluetooth USB dongle is S$40.00 and available to order; confirm the model match with us before ordering.

Yealink BH71 Workstation vs BH71 Pro: who needs the desk station?

The BH71 is an earhook mono headset for people who take calls while walking the floor, driving between sites or staffing a reception counter. Yealink positions the plain BH71 for mobile-only users, the BH71 Pro for hybrid workers who also need the PC dongle and charging case, and the Workstation versions for staff who still have a desk phone. The BHB710 station on the BH71 Workstation connects the headset to a mobile, a PC and a desk phone at the same time, extends range to 75 m and charges the headset when it is docked; the BH71 Workstation Pro adds the dongle and the charging case for the days the user is away from the desk. Third-party desk phones need an EHS adapter or a BT51-C with a USB adapter; tell us the phone model and we will quote the right accessory. Without a desk phone, the BH71 Pro at S$200.00 does everything the Workstation Pro does except the station.

Which Yealink Bluetooth headset for which Singapore user?

Front-line staff and helpdesks on Teams Phone: BH70 MS Mono. It is the lightest way to put a certified Teams headset on every desk, and the charging stand for BH70 and WH64 Hybrid (S$25.00) keeps it topped up; replacement BH70 ear cushions are S$26.50 a pair for shared-desk hygiene. Open-plan knowledge workers: BH74 MS Dual, with the stand version for hot-desking. Managers and consultants who travel: BH78 MS, because it folds, carries a 3.5 mm cable for in-flight use and has the deepest ANC. Mobile sales, site supervisors and receptionists: BH71 or BH71 Pro; BH71 Workstation where a desk phone is still in use. Most Singapore organisations we supply standardise on one on-ear model for the floor and keep a smaller pool of ANC headsets for those who ask, which keeps spares simple. If you are weighing Bluetooth against a DECT base for a dense floor, read our Yealink WH63 vs WH64 vs WH68 DECT headset comparison and the DECT vs Bluetooth headset decision guide; for desks that never move, the Yealink wired USB headset guide covers the UH range from S$45.00. The BH71 is also compared against the Poly Voyager 5200 in our Poly Voyager 5200 vs Yealink BH71 post.
