Logitech H540 USB Headset

I use this in a call center using MaxxPointe and Cisco Jabber. This is a far superior replacement for a headset the company provided for us. The headset I was using before had an audio effect like the caller was in a room talking from a few feet away. The Logitech H540 doesn't create that audio effect (probably better magnets used). I like the design concept of the ear covers being a cushion. So far, I do not experience pain or annoyance with prolong usage. The cushion also block some sound making. So if one of my co-workers is trying to talk to me, most times I don't notice right away. I can see what a previous commenter saying about the leather. I'm sure with prolong use, the faux leather will deteriorate. When the mute button is pressed, the LED on the cable ... MoreI use this in a call center using MaxxPointe and Cisco Jabber.

I can see what a previous commenter saying about the leather. I'm sure with prolong use, the faux leather will deteriorate. When the mute button is pressed, the LED on the cable lights up red. The only issue I have found is that sometimes the caller has difficulty hearing my voice. I cannot explain why that happens. Downside is that it does not feature a button to accept or end calls. So far, I like this product overall and for what I'm using it for.

I bought the higher end of the Logitech headphone with mic line of devices because many stores, including MicroCenter, will not accept returns for products like this. I read the reviews before purchasing. Overall, a great set of headphones. The audio quality is great and they are comfortable on my head. Two nits (1) I wear glasses, and the headphones sit on my ear with my glasses. So, my ears hurt after long teleconferences because of the pressure. (2) The headphones tend to slip off my ears if I glance down or up. The material on the ears is somewhat slick. Your mileage may vary. Overall, I am pleased with these headphones, but I will be looking for something a bit smaller and with more friction for my remote office.

This headset unfortunately becomes uncomfortable after just 30 minutes of use, but most budget headsets do so for me. I'm mixed on this headset. The cable is short, stiff and cheap. It will cause those permanent bent angles that will never go away. The volume and mute buttons on the right side of the headset are fine, but I would have preferred if the cable were on the left side of the headset has my work computer is on my left side. The short arm of the mic seems fine but there has been a couple times when a customer stated I was too far away from the mic. The mic quality and the sound quality are both good. Overall it is a fine mic but I just wanted more for the price without shelling out $100+.
