Plantronics Voyager 510SL Plus Headset

Advantages: Lightweight, Easy To Use & Reliable
Disadvantages: None As Yet

...This is a very reasonable headset for the £40 paid for it. It can be used on both ears quite easily. This can be done by twisting the over-ear piece to accommodate which ear is preferred. The button configuration on the headset is convenient for both left and right handed people. I went for this headset because I bought a different Plantronics headset about a year ago and I could find no faults with it. So far, I can find no faults with the new 510. I find that the sound quality is extremely good, and it allows you to hear the conversation easily while driving along in the car. Also what I find very convenient is the additional cable that allows you to charge the headset in the car from a cigarette lighter. In the box was also 2 other additional ear pieces, that can be changed for every ear. It is lightweight and easy to carry... Read review

Advantages: Cable clip, Volume control
Disadvantages: Short Life Span

...headphones 2 years ago because my usual computer headphones had broke after a little foot stomping accident. I was also in need of a working microphone because the microphone I received with my computer was lacking in sound quality and they snapped after the instance of them being used. This meant that I was set on purchasing a headset because they saved me the effort of buying a microphone and headset plus they would be more efficient when I was gaming. As I was unsure of what headset to buy I was sure that the overpriced sennheiser brand were the ones for me but since I went to argos to purchase a headset they were over £80. After much dedicated flipping through the saliva enduced catalogue of argos I found the computer headset section which featured a range of generic brand headsets and a page especially for plantronics. I had heard from word... Read review

Advantages: lets you talk for free
Disadvantages: not the most comfortable / adjustable headphones

...Having been introduced to Skype (www.skype.com) recently by a colleague, I though I'd get myself a headset to make full use of this service - ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT A REVIEW OF SKYPE ITSELF. This pack consists of a set of headphones with an lenglth and angle adjustable (but not very) boom microphone on one side with an in-line mute/volume control switch on the nice long cable (with a clip to attach it to your shirt) that ends in a pair of jack plugs - one to plus in to your PC's headphone socket, and one to plug into the microphone socket. Also in the box is an adaptor that converts those jack plugs to a USB plus - great if your PC doesn't have a soundcard (and hence no jack plug sockets), or, like me and my laptop, you want to plus the headset into a docking station to allow hassle free docking/undocking. The headset itself is OK... Read review
