Do these have a mic in the headset, or do you have to use the cord with the mic on it? Wanting to know if you can skype/talk on the phone wirelessly.

They do have a built-in microphone but the quality isn't too great. The microphone in the wired cord is a whole lot better but you can still use these wirelessly with your phone and/or Skype.

Yes you can talk on the phone with these. I tried the mic and work very well! :)

Yes, the mic is somewhere in the headset. I couldnt tell you where. But it does work with your phone plugged in, but placed in a bag.

Yes, I use a high quality AT&T cordless headset. I searched far for it because I couldn't hear well enough on most other headsets. Works fine but sort of a pain because it's really 2 phones but 1 dealer. Worth it to me for the quality hearing.

Hi,This headset is not wireless, so no you can't. You always need to use a cable. But still! This is a verry nice headset! Good quality sound. Best wishes!

the phones do have a headset jack, it is a RJ-111 (Standard phone jack) I haven't used it though so can't comment on how well it works.

Yes, there is a microphone. You can't see it, but it's in one of the ear pieces. I don't remember which one.It's not my favorite way to talk on the phone but, if you are already listening to music or something, you can take the call without removing the headset. If the call gets involved, just tell them to hold on for a second, turn off the headset, and start talking on the phone like normal.I don't use the headset buttons to control the phone since I have the phone with me while I'm using the headset. But sometimes I accidentally hit one of the headset buttons and the phone will start playing music or something so I know they do work. Yes, there is a microphone.

A headset cannot be used. This is just like any other land line phone, but I am using it with a VoIP provider like Vonage. It still uses the standard phone cord, but that cord connects to a small converter that then connects to my internet router.

These headphones have an in-line Mic on one of the two cords that come with it. These headphones in my preference is more for show and durability rather than for gaming. Or unless you don't like talking a lot during online play. However if you want a good Mic you should probably look into the kraken pro or the kraken 7.1, but just for the question yes it does have a Mic.

No, they don't. This headset doesn't have a mic either. I think having a volume control on the cord would be a bit heavy during a run as it would bounce unnecessarily.

One additional note...these are earphones only and don't have a mic to speak in. If you are going to listen to music only, then these will work, but if you want to speak during phone calls, get something with a mic.

Hi; I just received my Sony DR-BT21IK/B, and it does indeed have a mic. I bought these headphones (in part) because I had hoped to use them for Skype with my gen 2 iPod Touch. So far, though, I cannot figure out how to make the microphone work properly when making a call with Skype. When placing or receiving a call on the iPod Touch using the Skype app, a warning message telling me that I should hook up a microphone pops up, and it won't let me place or receive the call until I dismiss the message. The operating instructions that came with the headset have not proved helpful with this problem, and I do not see any relevant settings on my iPod itself. Actually, I came back to this site in the hopes that there would already be a relevant discussion thread letting me know what I should do, but it looks like you and I may be just starting the troubleshooting. I do not know if this problem is related to the fact that the current generation of iPod software does not include Bluetooth support. I do not know if this problem is remediable. I do not know if there is a simple fix for this that I am missing. I would welcome support from any more tech savvy folks out there.

I don't know what cord u are referring to--these are cordless. If only 1 ear works then it's either ur device settings or defective headset.

There is a mic and it doesn't work really well with hearing though I can say that after using it for chat on Skype, Yahoo, Gmail, and on my mobile phone... That the quality of my voice is not very good. No matter how I hold the mic up to my mouth in any angle that I can, it doesn't change the quality besides being louder when my mouth is closer. The mic is attached to the wire, it isn't attached to the headpiece itself. As for listening quality though, it is worth it and has an amazing noise-reduction.

Nope. They are wireless without a jack port. The headsets need batteries to work. The transmitter, however, can be used without batteries when plugged into the power supply.
