This is a cheap and cheerful set of headphones which I bought at the local market recently,
The reason I bought them was the fact that when the younger family members visit they nearly always play games or music on the computer and the only headphones I had was my rather expensive Sony set.
So rather than worry about anything happening to them I picked up the Topcom 400 Headset at the very cheap price of £4.99!

For what it is, it is an outstandingly reliable and durable piece of equipment which is ...

The earpieces are fitted with soft foam for the desired comfort in using the headset. The foam coverings of my earpieces were actually torn by my toddler but the loss of foam fittings does not affect the sound quality of the headset.
The Microphone
The microphone of Logitech Dialog 812 Headset is a very good one. It transmits good voice quality and my sister really admired the clear sound when we talk online. It has 'noise-canceling' feature that helps a lot when I want the noise of the TV or any external noise unheard by the person whom I am talking to.
The microphone can be positioned left or right as ...
