This headset has great sound and works great on Skype. Comfortable behind the head and my glasses don't interfere with the over the ear fit.  My clients say my voice sounds clear and robust! Price is great!

Good quality sound for the price. Works well with Skype but is cheaper to buy here than directly from Skype. Controls feel a little flimsy, and that's the only reason I didn't give the product five stars.

I've purchased this model headset for myself twice, for my wife we're going on her third headset. I'll get straight into the pros and cons.

Pros:
- Great sound; The virtual surround sound is of a fairly good quality. With this headset I usually keep my volume at 18% and can hear everything clearly while gaming or listening to music.
- Microphone is well placed and sturdy with good sound pickup. It is moderately adjustable (the plastic is pliant, not flexible but not rigid either).
- The controls are easy to use and well located. Once you're used to them you'll be able to adjust volume, audio setting (surround on/off), etc.
- The plush padding is comfortable and breathes well.
- USB connection improves signal clarity and allows greater control over the headset. (This may be a con to some. Personally, I prefer it.)

Cons:
- You need to have the Plantronics Gamecom Sound Control Panel installed (located on their website) in order to use any of the features of this headset properly.
- The headset is a little tight until broken in and can lead to mild headaches. Personally I think it's worth powering through the first week or so, but don't be surprised.
- Control indicators are lights on the headset. You have to take the headset off to tell which mode they're in. (On a positive note you can probably tell if the surround sound is on by the rather obvious degrade in sound quality and increase in background static).
- The cable... It's a thick, sturdy quality insulation. The only issue is it ages poorly. Anywhere from 6 months to a year after purchase it will become brittle and begin splitting, exposing the cable shielding. This can lead to audio distortions, crackling, it can cause your mic to pick up excessive background noises, and other issues. It can also lead to breaks in the interior wiring leading to the sound or mic cutting out randomly.
- Difficult to find in stock.

The reason I've repurchased this particular model is simple. For the price it's the best I've found, anywhere. It's comfortable (once broken in), sounds amazing (and picks up little details that can really improve a good story oriented game). I love this headset, I just wish they'd improve the quality of the audio cable.

Would gladly buy again (if it was ever in stock when I wanted to order it).

I initially left a poor review, stating that the audio quality on this headset was fine for telephones, but not of sufficient fidelity for using on computer teleconferencing, like video chats at work. I stand by that review for *this* headset.

However, the seller has really impressed me. They reached out to me and replaced my headset with this one:&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Mpow-V4-1-Bluetooth-Headset-Truck-Driver-Headset-Wireless-Over-Head-Earpiece-with-Noise-Reduction-Mic-for-Phones-Skype-Call-Center-Office-Support-Media-Playing/dp/B076H6QZRX/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Mpow V4.1 Bluetooth Headset/ Truck Driver Headset, Wireless Over Head Earpiece with Noise Reduction Mic for Phones, Skype, Call Center, Office (Support Media Playing)</a>. That model solved the problems, and works well for both telephone calls and for higher-fidelity calls on the computer. If you intend to ONLY take cell phone calls, this headset that you're viewing is a very economical choice. If you may want to use it with a computer where voice quality is a bit better, I recommend spending the extra couple bucks and ordering the one I linked to. It's a night-and-day difference.

Hey Guys.
I would just like to say that while a lot of people have complained about the short lifespan of many Plantronic headsets of about 1 year, I have had my pair of Audio 90s for 6 years and still going strong. Mic works great and the sound from the headset is wonderful as well. It's great for video-games, listening to music, and talking via Skype. Maybe I just got lucky with the set that I bought, but I purchased them for about $29 from Fry's Electronics six years ago (once again) and I'm actually using them right now. The only flaw that I find is that the wire is far too long which results in me sometimes running over and chaffing the wire with the computer chair, but even after that, the headset works like it did when I took it out of the box. The wire does have a fairly thick gauge, so it can stand up to minor abuse. I would rather have it be a bit shorter, but then again, it's easier to roll around the office and reach documents and such while having a conversation with somebody via Skype. All in all, I highly recommend it.

I test the headset for online shooter for my ps3 it sound really good with no problem at all but you have to configurated the volume of microphone to low level because they might hear you too loud but it's worth it,also can work on any consoles, I use it for voice chat on skype it sound great and very clear. The headset doesn't feel cheap it's very durable,I use it for more than five hours and doesn't hurt my hears at all it's very comfortable. I'm very happy with my headset the way I like it,I have no issues at all and I recommended to everybody for that price.

This headset is great. The sound is crystal clear whether you are using on Skype or listening to music, videos, etc. The microphone functions perfectly, no distortion, no crackling- have had many compliments on this piece of equipment while using it with my Skype. This headset functions better than the previous headset that I used and paid over 50.00 for! Highly recommend this headset- you simply can not go wrong ..especially at this price.

Great headset, very comfortable and wonderful sound

This headset works very well, especially for one at this price point.  I use it primarily for VOIP and online conferencing.  The sound is clear and the mic works very well.  I am heard load and clear on the other side.  I do miss having an inline mute, but this works great for what it is.  My only concern is that it fits a little snug on a larger head and pulls slightly on my ears which can become uncomfortable after an hour or two.

The Good -
Comfort fit, Incoming sound quality is fantastic.
The headset can take a beating, it's been dropped well over 30 times in a year and works as well as the day I opened the box.  This is a great headset for gaming on a stationary desktop.

The Bad -
The dongle is generally weak and cannot take a beating at all it will easily break.
This is not a good mobile unit as the dongle is not discrete and can take damage easily.
The range on the device is not as advertised.  I can get about 9-18 ft on a good day, nowhere near 40ft claimed on the box.
The Battery life is about 2/3 as long as advertised.  Since day 1, I can get about 4-5 hours of use before I have to throw back on the charge.
The Unit does not operate while plugged in and charging.  This puts you at a great disadvantage if you plan on using it every day in a mission critical environment.  Hastily changing skype settings to use an old desktop microphone is the most annoying part of my workday.

The Ugly -
Personally, this unit is not a good fit for me personally.  I am on Skype for work all day, and I'm chained to the desktop in my livingroom until I can find a better replacement unit that can reach through walls, and stay operational for a full 10-12 hour workday.

Just received my headset and after searching and trying to decide what to use for my ever-increasing Skype calls. Using Skype on the iPad with the BT-860 is great. Instant recognition of Bluetooth, really clear, clean sound and a mic that sounds at least as good as a great landline connection.  While I know that these are not high-end audiophile level cans, the sound is very nice indeed and I like to use them while cooking or catching some afternoon sun.

If there is a downside at all to these headsets, its that my ears get sore after an hour or so. I prefer over the ears style headphones for long term listening. Nuforce certainly did their best to make that better with extremely soft foam ear pads. The provide an extra pair with the kit and I'm sure that (based on their exceptional customer service) if I ever need replacements they'll be able to comply.

In the past I have only ever used small, one-ear headset mics for Skype calls and VoIP. I needed an upgrade and this mic has fit the bill perfectly. It's super easy to set up and the sound quality has been fantastic. Voice comes through extremely clear and the built in pass-through is way more useful than I would have expected. I would say this mic is more than adequate for a wide variety of uses and I would easily recommend it to anyone looking to step up their sound equipment.

I use it primarily for Skype calls and listening to music. This 20$ headset has a great sound quality, a very decent bass, a comfortable fit.
Its just unbelievable that you get a wireless headset with mute function at this price! Its probably the best deal i have got on a product.

This headset works great. It was actually a reorder and I ordered two, one for a back-up, because the last one we had (the same item) got broken. It's a excellent price for the quality of sound and is great to use with SKYPE. We are very happy with this purchase.

A friend recommended I get this headset after trying at least 3 others within a month. Some had horrible microphones, others did not work at all, and the last headset I had tried before this had a good mic but it died within two weeks.

My friend finally told me to get this headset as he owned one in the past and was the best for the money. I could not believe that such a good headset could cost this little compared to others that I had paid over $100 for.

The sound is good (actually very good) but the most important aspect for me was being able to be heard clearly and it does this very nicely.

Another plus is that the headset is analog, no USB adapter that cause issues. This went well with my Creative Xonar audio card and amp. I highly recommend this combo.

I got this headset several months ago because I needed one to use at work on webinars that I was conducting.  This means that I am showing things online and typing up responses.  I have not been disappointed at all with this headset.  It is very comfortable and people can hear me much better than my previous headset.  This one can be used with my cellphone (Verizon Blackberry international edition) and with my home phone (Panasonic land phone).  This is really, really convenient, as my other headset did not work with my cellphone.

My only quibble is that the mute function does not indicate if you are on mute or off mute.  It is a guessing game, so I can't risk that and use the mute function on either of my phones, for safety.

The headset is a little bulky and is not able to fold up very compactly. However, I've become so dependent on it, that I often take it everywhere I go.  Talking hands free w/o sounding like you are in a tin can or in a galaxy far, far away is wonderful.  I recommend this headset.  I'm going to try Headset Buddy adapters so that maybe I can use this same headset for my PC.  That would be great.
