Customer Reviews for 'Logitech ClearChat Style Headset'
comfortable but a little flimsy
this headset fits nicely and is comfortable for extended wear. it seems a bit flimsy though. already had a little issue with sound in one earpiece. overall i think it is good for the money, but much better out there for a few bucks more.
Cheap headset and Good customer service
I bought this head set sometime in Feb 2010 in replacement to some cheap $10 1 ear headset.
When looking for headsets, I wanted one that was less than $30 and was behind the head type. This headset was both, and was Logitech!
Sound quality is not OMG Amazing! but it does the job. My friends have not complained about the mic quality, however they do notice when I do not have it directly in front of my mouth. The cord is nice and long. Really too long for me. I find it very comfortable to wear, it just sits on top of my ears, however I have heard that it is uncomfortable for some. But for me, its fine.
The placement of the mic is too close to my face really. I sometimes want to eat/drink while wearing it and if I forget to move the mic, I am unable to eat or drink. Also the places that the mic can be moved to are both very awkward. You don't want to move it up cause it would look like you have an antenna but you also don't want to move it downwards cause it sticks out so far!
I was pretty rough on this headset (6-8 hrs a day sometimes) and recently it broke in July 2010. Didn't have any more sound coming out of the right headphone. I would twist the cord around and sometimes it would make sound but it wouldnt work for long. Best I can think is the wiring/connections will come lose rather easily.
However! I looked on Logitech's site to see if it was covered under a warranty and it is. TWO years! The process to also get a replacement sent was simple. I simply had to show proof of purchase and about a week later I had a new headset.
No customer support for inoperative headset
Logitech headset/microphone combo seems to have a real hard time working even with XP. Everything is Microsoft's problem in the words of their tech support. Even when the head set will not work with 3 different computers all of which are up-to-date.
Do not buy this
Let me just say that I've had this headset for about a year now. The thing stopped working like 4-5 months ago as many cheap headsets like this one do. When I first got it, the headset was VERY uncomfortable. It started hurting my ears as well because I wear glasses. After some time it shaped itself better to my head but my ears still hurt from this. The sound quality is good and I mainly used it for chatting while gaming, skype, watching a movie, or listening to music.
This is a very cheap headset, please do not buy into other peoples reviews as you will regret it a few weeks after your purchase (if not sooner). You can find a better bang for your buck deal somewhere else. Some reviews say "great for kids" and that's another reason not to buy it. The kid will use it, it breaks, and you have to buy them another one. Just spend an extra $20 on a headset that will last you a few years. This is not a good purchase.
Reasonably priced; good choice for VOIP calls
Our family purchased several of these because of an emerging need to conduct VOIP calls (using Skype). These headphones worked nicely on a desktop, a netbook and two laptop computers. Both the incoming (through the headphones) and outgoing (from the microphone) voice quality were high.
For music, the sound was acceptable; not the best I've ever heard from a pair of computer headphones, but good enough for hardware in this price range (and if the source music is from .mp3 files, even high end headphones probably aren't going to add much to the experience).
The only real shortcoming with this product is with the markings on the dual 3.5mm plugs. The mic and earphones icons should have been embossed in white. Instead, they are black on black; hard to read most of the time and nearly impossible in low light. This increases the likelihood that you will plug them into the wrong jacks (and you will).
I didn't encounter the comfort complaints that other reviewers identified. No comfort issues here for phone calls of 30 minutes or less and for up to an hour of listening to music.
Note: Marketadvisory prices are SIGNIFICANTLY lower than what I found in two brick and mortar stores.
