Sennheiser PC 120 Headset

Advantages: Great crisp sound, excellent fit
Disadvantages: Lack of volume control with Xbox 360

...Having worked in call centres before I was quite disappointed to learn that Microsoft's official headset for the Xbox 360 was just like the one I was accustomed to, you know the one that pulls half your hair out when you take it off and makes you look like one of the chickens on that car insurance advert, therefore you can imagine my delight when the new Sennheiser PC 120 arrived at my door. The headset ( as you can see from the picture below) goes with the more modern bluetooth style that fits comfortably over and into your ear, you can also switch between your left and right ear depending which way feels more comfortable. When you first see the connections on the end of the headphones you think to yourself, "now where am I going to stick that on my 360's controller" due to the 2 x 3.5mm jacks (I will explain these later) on the end...

Game Ware Xbox 360 Headset

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Doesnt last long, not worth the money

...Game Ware Xbox 360 Headset The Game Wear Xbox 360 Headset is not a product that I would recommend to anyone due to the fact that they simply don't last. I have been through about three of these headsets now and all of them have not lasted longer than a month. The Game Ware Xbox 360 Headset can be purchased for about £15 and it really is not worth the money. This headset is very simple to use and it allows you to listen and talk to people over Xbox Live. I now use the official Xbox 360 wireless headset and it still works. Even though this headset is cheap it wont last that long so it is not worth buying. I Don't Recommend this product to any potential buyers....

Review of GAME GAMEware Xbox 360 Headset

Headset built to last

Advantages: Great sound quality, comfortable ear pads, mute & volume controls
Disadvantages: Ears hurt after long use (very small disadvantage)

...The Sennheiser PC 151 Headset was designed specifically for avid gamers who want to avoid disturbing anyone (neighbours and family) from the noise created by speakers. This particular headset will be perfect for gamers who tend to play for long hours as the headphones as well as the head strap are padded with a soft cushion material, intended to provide maximum comfort. Although, designed specifically for gamers, the Sennheiser headset can be used for other purposes such as listening to music on a mobile phone or mp3 player on the go as well as for any other use. With the addition of a microphone protruding out of the ear phone on the left, gamers can now talk to their gaming buddies whilst playing their games. This also means that they would not have to buy two separate devices (headphone + microphone) in order to fully enjoy...

Sennheiser PC 130 headset

Advantages: Good sound quality, cheap price, long cable, microphone.
Disadvantages: Painful during and after prolonged usage

...I have owned a Sennheiser headset for about 8 months now, and have, on the whole been slightly disappointed by it's performance. Looks: The Sennheiser PC 130 headset is an ordinary headset package. The black and silver color scheme make the product suitable for both office and home; subtle curves and contours add to the sleek and professional appearance of the product. Practicality: This headset is lightweight and moderately adaptable for different sized heads. It has an easily adjustable,sliding headband that allows plenty of room for the largest of heads. This headset also comes with a relatively long connection cable which allows free, but limited movement across the room. The main flaw i have found with this product is the comfortability. I have found that over prolonged periods of usage, these headphones become...

Review of Sennheiser PC 130 Headset

One Of the best headsets

Advantages: great sound , comfortable , good-looking , practical
Disadvantages: short wire

...This Headset is the classic type of headset , with big ear muffs. It is very comfortable , it kinda relax your ears and the muffs are very soft . It also looks nice and are very practical and easy to use ( just plug and play ) . Also the lenght of the headset can be adjust by pulling ( to enlarge ) and pushing ( to make them smaller ) , so it fits your head perfectly . It has an in line remote to adjust the volume ( a little wheel on the cable that works great but it is a little to sensitive ) . About the sound now . It realy realy sounds great . It is like your are in the middle of the action . It gives you the feeling that you have a whole surround sistem not headsets. It is great for games ( especially for shooters and multiplayer games ) and has a very nice bass that fells great and sounds real . If you turn the volume at max...

Great Headset

Advantages: Clear sound
Disadvantages: None

...Logitech Dialog 812 Headset When I purchased my Logitech webcam, this Logitech Dialog 812 Headset was on a discounted price. My old headset 's microphone was dead at that time so I decided to buy this headset. The Look The first time I used this Logitech Dialog 812 Headset was when I was having a conversation with my sister online. She complimented me on my new and nice headset but she said I could have looked like an aircraft pilot with it if I wore white tops with a necktie. The headband The headband of Logitech Dialog 812 Headset is wider than other headsets that I have seen but it is considerably lighter. It is designed like a double band at the top but it gets narrower at the sides. The headband is actually adjustable depending on the head's parameter. The point where the double-headband ends at the side...

Plantronics GameCom 1 Headset - Jake's Reviews

Advantages: Good sound quality, top notch mike quality, good price, comfortable
Disadvantages: Some may not like the looks, no surround sound

...Have had this headset a few months now after reading a magazines review, and it has been perfect! My main use for this headset is gaming, for which the sound quality is exellent and the microfone is one of the clearest around. However, because of such good sound/mike quality it is also perfect for Skype, any form of internet chatting, Listening to music and also making/recieving phone calls! The height is adjustable to fit just about any head and the headband and earpads make wearing it for hours very easy, even after long sessions of use (3+ hours) my ears still felt fine and did so when i took it off, this is not like those cheapo headsets that after 5 minutes kill your ears. There is a handy microfone mute button and a volume controller as you can see in the picture and it also has a clip which enables you to make the wire...

Headset from hell

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Ear pain and being anoyed

...The Labtec Gaming Fx:1 Headset was the 1st headset i bought for gaming and when i got it i was quite happy because at the time i didn't have very much money and they were quite cheap (£11 from a computer shop in the Metro Centre i think) I was quite happy until about a week later, then all the problems started to come out on this little bundle from hell. The problems on the Labtec Gaming Fx:1 Headset are quite bad and i would never buy it again, but there are some redeeming features on this headset. The main one of these is the fact that it has a volume control on the wire that plugs into the computer, this is quite helpful in games were the volume of the game goes from quite to loud (i don't know how many times i have been playing games were there has bin a quiet scene and have turned the volume up on the computer and then something...

XBL COMMUNICATION HEADSET FTW!

Advantages: Value for money.
Disadvantages: Some problems.

...The Xbox live communicator headset is an accessory that comes with Xbox Premium Console and Xbox elite controller and is one method of using the voice messaging services on Xbox live, The headset itself connects to the Xbox 360 wireless controller via a cable only. During this review I will discuss several concerns that affect the usage of this headset. Usability The headset itself connects easily to the XBOX Wireless controller and the connecter itself never disconnects whilst using, this is a perfect design feature as a lot of other headsets use basic audio input sockets(like on a cd player) which aren?t very reliable. The connecter has a switch on it that allows you to turn of the Microphone which is useful if some come in real life is talking to you whilst playing the game. The cable itself you would think be annoying being...

Review of Microsoft Official Xbox 360 Communicator Headset (Live)

Fantastic headset, comfortable and easy to use

Advantages: Lightweight, Cool ears!!
Disadvantages: Not adjustable - but I didn't need to!

...black leather which is quite nice against the skin, and they do not feel particularly heavy on the ears. If you wear specs I have found it is more comfortable to have them slightly above the headset, as if you are wearing it for a long time - say 4-5 hours of gaming - it can be a little uncomfortable where the headset is resting on the ear. The headset is designed to have the mic on the right hand side (inconvenient if your computer is to the left!) and although it might be possible to have it on the left I don't think it'd be particularly comfortable. In terms of performance, I was completely impressed. Transatlantic phone calls over skype were crystal clear at both ends, my friend could hear me easily and the sound quality is brilliant. Unlike some microphones, you don't have to have it right in front of your mouth so you can...
