 Great buy/headset Dec 14, 2009
By James S
"James"
The standard xbox 360 headset that came with my original purchase recently stopped working and I promptly started searching the internet for a worthy replacement. When I found this headset I must admit I was a little bit skeptical after reading the reviews and seeing the rating. However, I couldn't be happier with the headset-earbud.
My original buying specs were the following:
* Nothing over-the-head (I am tired of looking like the Burger King drive through manager while playing a game. I also love playing quick games of COD MW2 before doing something and the nasty hair imprint the over-the-head sets leave you with is annoying when wanting to go out after)
* Comfortable to wear (lets face it, sometimes the time can fly by when you get into an online game and if the headset hurts it will take away from the experience)
* Good sound/mic quality (Again, if the quality is terrible it will hurt the experience)
So after getting this headset:
Pros:
* Comfort: I have worn many ear-bud style headphones and can say that the cushion that comes with these, added to the support it has below the ear, makes it almost unnoticeable for extended game-play. The trick is that you DO NOT shove it into your ear but rest it just slightly inside of the ear lobe while relying on the under-support to keep it in place. If worn properly, you will quickly forget it is attached. It also comes with an extra ear-bud cushion in case you lose it or it somehow rips.
* Quality: I am playing a game, not listening to Bach so hitting all of the different audible ranges is irrelevant. The important thing is my friends hear me clearly and I can hear them clearly. No static, no problems with picking up background noise or even muffled sounds. As with the comfort factor, make sure it is worn properly so the mic is slightly away from your cheek to avoid muffled sounds.
* Other stuff: The jack fits nicely into the standard xbox 360 controller. It even seems to be a bit more secure than the standard headset did. It has the ability to mute and adjust sound on the cord. Cord length is also longer than the standard headset, which is great since I have a habit of pulling it out of the controller due to its short length.
Cons:
Really don't have any. It is what I expected and love using it.
Conclusion
For $9.99 it was a great price and I can't be happier with the product. I would and have recommended this to my friends. If you are looking for the same things I was above, look no further.

 Average headset Aug 30, 2008
By John
I was excited to get a Plantronics headset, reading about their typical quality they normally produce. I was sort of let down. On the plus side, it is not as uncomfortable as I have read in other reviews. Audio can be heard clearly through the earpiece. The 3.5mm jack fits but loosely into the Xbox controller. However the microphone was the problem. It is supposed to have some sort of noise-canceling feature built-in. But when I would speak into the microphone on Xbox Live, my friends claimed there was some static noise that could be heard. I verified this myself by recording a voice message to myself. I may have just gotten unlucky and received a dud, who knows? For $15, I figured it wouldn't hurt. I kind of wish I got those $15 back. Oh well.

 Decent quality , but hurts ear after a while Jun 01, 2007
By Mark Mullen
nice volume button, but it really starts to sting your ear after a while, because its extremely hard.... I give it a 4/5 overall though.

Works ok, hurts ear after a while. Jan 19, 2010
By The Pro
This ear piece works ok enough, it just starts to hurt you ear after a while. It seemed to develop an connection problem and I would randomly not be able to talk to people in the game. Its sleek and seems to be of nice form though. Its cheap enough to. I'd recommend saving up for a wireless one.

 Junk with potential Jun 08, 2009
By Albert Woo
"crAziemutant"
This product worked for the first few times of use. Then one day it started to produce loud continuous static towards the other players. I personally don't hear it when it happens but all the other players hear it. I've heard this happen to other players and have yet to know the cause. But it has happened to this mic so I would switch it for the included mic that came with the 360 in tight situations. So far, the 360 headset is still working better. I wanted an ear bud mic and thought this would be decent for the price, but it's not. If it would only stay working then I would have spent my money well.
