microphone, I do not see the position of the microphone on the headset. Can I use it for talking on the phone?

Yes. You can receive calls. You can also make calls, but only manually, the headset is unable to activate your phone's voice dialing capability.

The mic is integrated into one of the ear pads. It produces an inferior experience for my listeners and some unintelligible speech. It CAN be used for telephone conversations, but it's not the best choice.

There is no microphone attachment, so you can use it listen to the phone call but you would have to speak into the phone directly.

Yes, you will have to have the headset on to answer, there is unfortunately no speaker function. I wish there was.

There should be a small removable piece in the cradle just under where the earpiece of the headset would be. Remove this piece, turn it over or around and re-insert it. It should now stand up far enough to hold the handset in place when the phone is wall-mounted.

I would think it depends how your phone is set up. My headset stopped working so I don't know what more to say

No. There is no headset jack on the corded base. Why would you want one on there anyway? If there was one, and you plugged a headset into it...you would still have to stay in one place to use it as the base is CORDED. Meaning you couldn't move around with it. At least the cordless phone can clip to your shorts or pants and you can plug a headset into it and move around. If the corded base had a headset jack, you wouldn't have freedom of movement.

I got the 3D ear phone/microphone and it kind of helps out for me! I am a distance hearing person so the audio is fine for me. If you want to play back the audio, you can get a reg earphone and listen to it!

Not that I am aware of. Your headset still has to be connected to your phone. I have had mine a while and I love it.

Just checked there is a protected port on the side of the hand set. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Let me know what you're able to pick up as a headset.

I bought it for my cell phone...I have an old phone that is hard to find mic/headphones for. It never worked for my phone (I don't know if it would work on anything else). Sorry...

I hope a more informed person will post to enlighten us, but I believe this bypasses your sound card/built in audio codec. I think that is the same for any USB headset.You would need to plug a headset directly via mini jacks in the sound card to use that. I guess where I am lacking clarity is that I believe there is no special speaker hardware for headsets to do "positional" surround. I think it is all simulated- either in the chip in the USB dongle or in your PCI sound card.

You will need a second cable that is appropriate for your phone. With this cable you can extend the headset to your phone.

The headset and microphone have to be attached to amplify your voice. They do not function separately. You can hold the microphone while attached to to the amplifier to your mouth without putting it on your head.

Jeremy, However your phone operates is how the headset will operate when it is turned on. I would suggest ordering one, trying it out and if it doesn't fit your needs then return it within the returns period.

You must be using a headset that is CTIA standard. You can get a CTIA-to-OMTP converter to use your headset on this phone. This phone supports OMTP headset.

This headset / mic has a standard USB connector on the cable. First, you would probably need a USB converter to fit your phone. Then, the phone must have the correct driver software to use the headset. I'm not sure if the second point is possible on most smart phones, but maybe Android or Windows phone would work.
