Personal Experience after <30 days of usage.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.THIS IS BASED ON MY POINT OF VIEW AND THE LITTLE RESEARCH I DID ON THIS HEAD SET. For the price I was expecting a better microphone quality, but it seems to not do a very good job. At least that was my experience: Sound: - For meetings it was perfect, I was able to hear everyone with no problems - Music just sounds like you are expecting it to sound, clear and on point Microphone: - If you are vacuuming or doing some activity that brings noise, you still can a conversation with someone else as the noise doesn't make it thru. - IF YOU ARE ON THE STREET WALKING WHILE CARS ARE MOVING 50+ MPH then ambiance sounds comes thru the microphone and interrupts the conversation. Im constantly on the phone and this doesnt help to isolate your voice with the ambiance. For sound works great, for communication when there is background noise going on... not so much.

Great for noise canceling but a little heavy.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these for my husband as a gift and he really liked them, he loves the noise canceling function and the speaker to use when answering calls. The only thing he would change would be the weight, he says they feel a little heavy when he uses them.
