Insignia Wired Headset
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this headset as a gift for my niece. She and my son connect up over Xbox live to chat and play, especially with all the quarantining from Covid-19, it lets him stay connected with his cousins. She loved the headset and it worked well initially but as many other reviews have highlighted it just doesn't last. Her mic quit working after less than 6 months. She doesn't abuse her stuff and this was only used for Xbox live. I purchased the extended warranty on this headset to hedge my bets due to the other reviews stating it was hit or miss on this item. I returned the item to BB and swapped it out for a Turtle Beach headset and a new warranty and they are happily chatting while playing. I still rated this headset 4 stars because it was reasonably priced and worked well when it worked. Based on other reviews if it holds up, it works well for a long time but it can also fail rather quickly. Given the hit or miss nature, it is worth a gamble based on price, especially if you just want to try a headset, but I would highly suggest getting the extended warranty in case it doesn't hold up.

Good In It's Price Range
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have two Xbox One's that are used in my house, and with a head set at each unit, this is the fourth Insignia I've purchased through the years. This is NOT a high end headset. But if you're looking for something relatively cheap and that will get you by, this is your item. Sound is clear, as good or not better then the old supplied 360 headsets from Microsoft. the buttons are functional, it plugs in easy, and again, sound both to and from is pretty good. The only real down side, is you HAVE to be careful with these headsets when not in use. They don't take any kind of beating. And what I mean by that, is you can't just leave them plugged in to the controller laying on the floor or on a counter where the cable could bend. You have to set them aside somewhere where the cables won't get folded or smashed in any way. If you have a youngster, you know what I mean. After a few times of them laying around, with the cord folded or bent, these headsets WILL stop working. Again, this is my fourth one. They are NOT heavy duty and if you have a kid, you should know this if they have a tendency to leave the controller and headset laying around

Affordable option that gets the job done...
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this mic as a cheap replacement for my Xbox brand ones which eventually broke after several years. These work great if all you want to do is talk to friends when playing games online, while still being able to listen to your in-person surroundings... The one ear speaker design is a great option if you don’t want to shut yourself out from others in your household while still being able to talk to your friends online. If you are looking for amazing sound quality & immersive experience, then I would look into a 2-ear headset design as these tune out outside noises so you can just focus on the game. Final Review - If you’re looking for a cheap option so you can talk online this is a good option. If you are looking for amazing sound quality then I would look for a headset that has the 2-ear design. Personally, I have 2 headsets to fulfill both needs depending on how I want to play.

Good headset for a low price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this headset after my turtle beach headset broke and was just looking for something to hold me over till I could buy a better one. I have since changed my mind, as this headset works far better than I had imagined. You can hear game volume through the earpiece as well as chat, allowing you to listen to in-game conversations easier. The single wire that runs to the headset is a little thin which is why I gave it a 4 star review. I don't plan to buy turtle beach now, great product!

Q: QuestionHow do you fix the setting for this headset? I'm having problems with echoing and not hearing my party.
Asked by Whyme.
- A:Answer You need the Xbox adapter that has both volume controls... The left side controls the game volume that comes through the headset causing the echo effect... The right side controls are for the player char volume.. Turn down the volume on the right side all the way to avoid the echo effect..

Q: QuestionDoes it work for standard Xbox one controller port
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer This headset doesn't work with a standard controller by itself. You need the Microsoft - Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter. If you have the adapter it will work. You don't need the adapter if you have an XBox One S controller.

Q: QuestionI just bought this headset around 10:30am, it works fine in the headset portion, but the mic is not outputting my sound. The mic is unmuted, volume balanced in chat mixer.....mic still doesn't work, I can hear everything perfect including other people.
Asked by Mmanning11.
- A:Answer Check other controls in the control panel. This happened to my wife and she somehow had a box checked that didn't allow the mic to work in teams/zoom calls. I can't remember what the box was however it was under the control panel settings.
