Plantronics Audio 628 USB Overhead Stereo Headset

The mic noise cancellation feature works well. You need to keep the mic volume to 50 to 70% for the noise cancellation feature to work properly. I tried it and the noise of the vehicles around me was almost completely cancelled. The audio is also clear and crisp. It may not be good for listening to music but good for speech. It is very lightweight and doesn't hold the ear tight. You will hardly feel any discomfort. I wish the headphone was a bit bigger and the foam a bit better, then again that might make the headphones heavy. The price is a bit high but it is a good investment if you are into teaching or take parts in online meetings or for youtube.

The legendary Plantronics! This headset definitely lives up to its price. Excellent build quality, a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, good bass, clear sound - superb quality overall for the price. I would've given it a full "5 Star" rating, had it not been for one minor design flaw. The volume control consists of "+" and "-" buttons; this works well, but offers no visual / tactile indication of the current output level. You never really know when the volume is at its maximum. Other than that, this piece is almost perfect. The USB cable is long enough to grant you enough mobility to pace around your computer in case you feel the need to stretch your legs; yes, the headphones are quite comfortable, and cause no fatigue even after hours of continuous use. Recommended.

I'm writing this review after using this for about 14 months. It works really well & I guess this can also be used for "Talking" to your computer (Using software like Dragon Naturally Speaking). I don't have personal experience with that but I did used another Plantronics Headset & received over 95% accuracy (Which is undoubtedly pretty high). Coming to this piece, material covering the headset has worn considerably. However, Mike arm is working just fine & has not loosened yet. Voice is crystal clear in both drums & build quality is pretty sturdy. I've dropped this a couple of times, but still no damage whatsoever. I bought this for Rs 1,845.00, so total value for money.

Works very well. Though it seems to struggle a bit against fan wind. Even though the other party is able to hear, somehow the fan wind cuts out the other party's voice on skype. But in every other way this product is very good and I have no complaints. Noise cancellation feature doesnt work well. If the fan is on then the other party hears all sorts of noises....they cant realise that its a fan....i have been asked if i am in the toilet or near a water fall or a fountain etc Now after a year the sponge has torn and i cant get a replacement set

I use this headset for web meetings and Skype calls. The sound quality is clear. Even when I am working from places where there is surrounding noise, I can clearly hear the other side and the others dont hear the noise. Headset is comfortable and adjustable. Easy to set up. Well packed during delivery. Very much recommend for home and office use.

Its been almost 5 years I am using these headphones. No issues so far, they are still working. Both ears are working, comfortable, adjustable, noise cancellation works fine. It's a great purchase. I had 500 coupon but it was around 2250 original price without coupon. Worth it. Loved it.

Great

Why I purchased it? a) I already had purchased the iBall Rocky Headset Pros : -- Fits nicely over the ears. The pads are really comfortable -- Over the head strap has padding too -- Microphone can be swivelled up or down and has a piece of foam too. -- Features are better for the price Cons : -- if you do not store it properly, the microphone can bend - starts to look like a twisted piece of attachment over usage -- the microphone piece if it twists, you may not realise that the microphone is pointing away from your mouth as it is covered by a foam. -- Biggest of all - "noise cancellation" - if I am in a meeting people sometimes ask me if I could go to a quieter place as they could hear background noise - for which I had to look for another headset specially the noise cancelling types. b) I went in for this model because: Pros: a) Smaller size compared to iBall Rocky Headset but can still be adjusted in length. Foam pads on ears are comfortable. b) If I keep it my backpack - I could still put some additional things in which I could not do if I used the iBall Rocky Headset. b) Microphone swivels and is solid. Will not twist like the iball rocky headset microphone. c) Designed for skype calls and has call on / off and mute buttons - a real plus Cons: Even if I join a teleconference, people still ask me to go to a quieter place. Given the fact that the product writes: "Noise-canceling microphone cancels noise, not your voice" and the pricey tag even if it would have decreased to some extent - I would have thought that it does bring down my problem. But, the fact that my colleagues say that there is no difference - sorry the product did not meet my expectation.

Le casque a été livré comme prévu et est conforme à sa description. Pour ceux qui comme moi voudraient l'utiliser avec un outil professionnel, en l'occurence Lync: - la fonction mute de la télécommande fonctionne bien mais n'informe pas Lync du changement d'état - les touches volumes fonctionnent correctement - la touche décroche/raccroche est inactive l'essentiel est là puisque je peux participer aux réunions, téléphoner via Lync (mais avec quelques limites contrairement à mon casque plantronics fournis par mon entreprise mais introuvable sur le marché).

Very happy with the quality Fits well - feels comfortable Easy to use - very clear sound Like the option to control with the hands on the remote section on the wire Very comfortable to wear Overall - really good

Ho acquistato queste cuffie per svolgere sessioni di training virtuale in web conference e per l'utilizzo con skype. In entrambi i casi il suono nei padiglioni è nitido, non c'è alcun ritorno dal microfono e la mia voce arriva pulita all'interlocutore. Buona la qualità per l'utilizzo con musica e video, sicuramente migliorata dalla connessione USB delle cuffie. Leggere, danno comunque l'impressione di una buona fattura. Plug'n'play con Windows, un pò più complicato il set up con il Mac.

They are not the latest but they work with my programs. Other headphones are great but they don't always work with all programs but these do. I brought 3 sets as they can be very hard to find.

Sound quality is great for the price, I use it to listen to music too. Microphone is also very good. It is also lightweight and the cable is quite long. Highly recommended.
