Will these headphones work as a general computer microphone or just to answer calls? I want to use it on Skype and things like that. Can it do that?

Both will work, so long as you are, A. USB connected to a computer with no Bluetooth (most desktops)B. Bluetooth connected (most laptops,phones and other devices)

Yes, It works properly on windows 7/8With the latest driver and software (download it online), It will act as external / additional usb soundcard with High Quality sound.Include line-in cable will give you option to connect mixer or music instrument in It for recording purpose.So far I'm happy with It

Thanks for your question. These are not designed to work as gaming phones, only to answer telephone calls. This is a fantastic sounding headphone. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud NAD dealer.

That's right. I use mine with Skype all the time. Much better than the laptop mic and speakers.

Absolutely. They function as a standard stereo headset when mic functionality isn't present.

I use them to monitor a music workstation. They are fine for my purposes. I have not used them for voice recording. The better your ear the better the headphones you need.

Yes I use these headphones everyday to Edit videos on my laptop. Also I use them to Skype my family back home! Mic works awesome.

Yes you can! I bought them and was pleasantly surprised to see that my laptop actually did recognize them as an inline mic, as most of the time it doesn't recognize headphones with inline mics as having a mic as well. Oddly enough, it DID NOT appear on the list of recording devices but they were definitely picking up sound as evidenced by my skype conversation partners. Your mileage with them may vary though!

I think you are mistaken, these headphones do not have a built in microphone.The thing is, these are headphones, the thing you are looking for are headsets(which are headphones with either a mic attachment or with a built in mic)As for if the headphones work on a Android, since I never owned one its hard to say, but if a Android can accept a standard headphone cord then it should work, they are rather light and come with both a long and short cable(one for home and the road) however they are somewhat large.

I haven't tried using one for Skype, but I would imagine if you could set the microphone to be an output as well as input it could work. I would check YouTube first before trying though.

It depends on what you mean by "work". Do they play music? Yes. Can you control the playback (skip songs, pause, volume control, etc)? No. Do they work to make/receive phone calls? No, there is no call audio, the microphone does not work, nothing. The phone does not recognize these as headset, only as a headphone, meaning audio playback only.I just purchased these and have tried them, along with Beats by Dre Studio (also with ControlTalk) and neither work for calls. I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 running Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.

I tried it out, and it routed the sound through my handset. I've been told you can use it for Skype, but I don't use Skype and can't test that. For basic phone calls, however, it appears to not work.

I have only used my headphones for audio on my pc (in fact the only chord you need to plug in is the standard 3.5mm it comes with). I'm not sure you could use them to talk if that's what you want. I have used the headphones for conversations on my phone which have worked; this leads me to assume they would work with conversations on your pc.

These are not meant to be used with microphones. These are headphone splitters. All they do is split a headphone impedance signal into two smaller signals.

I have only used these microphones connected to a PA system through an XLR cable, but it also has a 1/4 inch output jack and you may be able to used a 1/4 inch male to 3.5 mm male adapter cable and plug it into the mic input on your computer. I have been able to use this setup with other wireless mics in the past to patch them into Skype, but haven't used it with this one. For PA use this mic is a great buy, decent quality, good range.

It should work if you plug it in to Mic jack. But then you couldn't use them for actual headphones.

These Headphones can pbe plugged as voice monitor only. There is NO microphone in them. They have noise cancellation mechanism that uses internal mic, but can't be used for Phone call if plugged to S5.

I think that they would function using a computer based phone system. The microphone sounds good and would probably work from a quality standpoint. The only real consideration is comfort for a call center representative. I have no problems with 2 hours of use, but I would imagine that they might get uncomfortable after a full day of use.
