Poly Headset - PLANTRONICS - Blackwire C5220 - Binauraal - Bedraad - Jack 3,5 mm

I bought this to replace an HP wireless gaming headset that was crumbling and had a very bad microphone. It was the second one I bought and both became unusable. I am MUCH happier now. This microphone is excellent and the speakers are also very good.

Good Points: - Great audio output quality - Fantastic microphone - Lightweight and slim design - Appealing colour scheme Improvement Points: The passive noise cancellation (i.e. due to the design of the earcups) is a double-edged sword - i.e. it's great at eliminating outside noise and at the same time at eliminating your own voice. This takes some getting used to.

Works better than I expected. Mic and audio quality is about average for these types of headsets. I wouldn't use these for listening to music. But they work great for meetings/Discord/etc. I swapped out the volume/mute switch that comes with this with one from an old pair of headphones. The included one directly controls the application's mute function (Teams, possibly others). May be a nice feature for some that helps prevent the "double-mute", but I found myself constantly checking that I'm still muted. It would randomly notify me that it switched off/on when I didn't touch it. The static people mention, I suspect is actually the sound of the material inside the earpieces crinkling as the headphones settle on your head. I couldn't reproduce the static noise any other way. It's weird how much it does sound like static. But after the headphones are on, you don't hear it again.

Really like the sound, the comfort, and the switch on these headphones. I recommend them.
