Customer Reviews
Solid headset, and quite comfortable by Douglas E. Hassell
I’m usually skeptic about voice accessories for game consoles. They have a reputation of being overly styled, cumbersome and just uncomfortable. Several products–including the original Xbox Headset with Communicator–lived up to these expectations with depressing regularity.
Even the so-called “elite” headsets, like Xbox Plantronics Gamecon Halo 2 Headset Communicator, don’t really do it for me. I don’t know about you, but I can’t really stand anything that goes into the ear. (ick!)
I had given up on mainstream voice hardware, but then I saw this model Xbox Headset with Communicator and decided to give it a try. The price is reasonable enough to justify a trial use.
To my amazement, it’s incredibly comfortable. The microphone is actually shrouded in foam (to muffle those staccato P’s and T’s when speaking in the heat of battle) and the behind-the-neck design is no more uncomfortable than a heavy-duty pair of sunglasses. (just don’t try to lean back in your chair)
As an insightful bit of design, the neck-piece is a masterpiece. Each side has a soft-rubber strip that gently rests on the backs of the ears. The neck-band is rigid and comfortably grasps the sides of the head. These two features combined make this headgear on-par with my studio-quality stereo headphones in terms of comfort.
The controller adapter is standard Microsoft specifications and features a ‘mute’ button right on the front, so you can easily talk to someone in the room as you would to someone online. Volume control is on the top and just as accessible.
Add to these the ability to switch the earpiece and boom (detachable) to the left or the right of the neck-band, and you have a solid performer. Looks cool, too… it has the ‘old-school’ charm of the original Xbox, but in a headset that’s also compatible with the Xbox 360; A good find!
Xbox Headset by Mark B. Peebles
This product is good for a while until the connecter breaks and then some people go out and buy another headset and other people use glue and tape, but all i do is take the communicater part that broke off and slide it under the left ear (the actual thing that goes around your head) and then snap it back in place. Yea, it doesn’t stay on your head great, but it does work and thats the way I use it. The only thing that I found that I dont like is that the communicater goes bad after a while. First I have to adjust the cord just right and then after a month of that, it doesn’t work anymore. This is a good headset for about 6 months till the connection finally breaks
Breaks easily by L. Moore
The headset broke in the same day my son received it. So I remember reading on here, that this may happen and to just purchase a good headset to go with the communicator, so we did. Bought a headset at Radio Shack, put them together and he was in business. So, half the product is great, the other half breaks like glass. Purchase only for the communicator.
have to buy a new mic tommorrow by Robert Murray
ok…i have had this mic for 1 and a half years….after about 6 months the part that holds the mic and headset detached….yes it was an easy fix with cement glue and tape but still….ok and now you cant hear out of the earpiece so i have to keep it speakers but my mic still works….i dont highly reccommend it but its ok…just be careful with it
