Decent headset for Microsoft specific operations, but not much else. I like the Microsoft Teams integration. I like the on-ear padding. Surprisingly comfortable and none of that uncomfortable cranial vice-like compression from the AirPods Max. The sound is sufficient for voice, but I would not get my hopes up for music playback. I don't like the mouthpiece being so short and inflexible. I don't like the mouthpiece being non-reversible. All that said, these are overpriced for what they are good and bad at.

For someone who is on Teams most of the day managing a large department this headset is great because it intergrates perfectly with Teams as you would expect. Performance is the exact same on my Mac as it is on my Surface Book and nothing needs to be installed. Voice clarity is good and everyone said I sounded a lot better with this headset vs. the cheap on I bought on Home Essentials Direct earlier in the year. Toss in it connects via USB-C and you got a real winner. Only negative for some people would be if you like to listen to music and like not having to switch headsets. It plays music pretty poorly as it's geared for voice. Not a problem for me as I switch to my Sony WX1000M4 for listening to music but for some people this might be a deal breaker.

The headset quality is fine, but we preferred the wireless. We are not able to return the headsets we didn't need. Contradicting return policy.Overall, the product is comfortable on the ears especially for long meetings, easy to use (plug and use), and nice features to mute button and volume button on the wire.

Okay, I'm trying out the wired headsets for our office, and they're amazing. At this price point, Microsoft will have a hit with offices. Microsoft fit themselves between Plantronics' low-end blackwire 3000 series which is around $40 and their next models (the 5000 series) which is around $80. It destroys the 3000 series on all levels from build quality to audio quality to comfort. I will argue it's more comfortable than the more expensive 5000 series and audio quality is debatable and when it's debatable, you go with the cheaper one. I got really good comments from fellow office workers who tried out their new headsets too. First comments were how soft and comfortable the headsets were. A couple of them were regular users of the Plantronics Focus UC wireless ... MoreOkay, I'm trying out the wired headsets for our office, and they're amazing.

I got really good comments from fellow office workers who tried out their new headsets too. First comments were how soft and comfortable the headsets were. A couple of them were regular users of the Plantronics Focus UC wireless headsets. I always thought the Focus headsets were comfortable but my office workers said these Microsoft ones beat it. They said the audio quality was better on both sides (caller, receiver) with the Microsoft though it's a bit unfair to compare because the Microsoft ones are wired and the others are meant to travel around the office up to 100 ft. We use softphones for the majority of our staff (IP desk phones are maybe 30% while softphones are 70%). I can imagine replacing the Plantronics headsets with these Microsoft ones if they hold up to the abuse (office workers are far more abusive to equipment than consumers because consumers usually pay for their own equipment). Another advantage for Plantronics is because of its ubiquity, you can easily find replacement parts like ear padding covers. Unless these Microsoft ones become a smash hit, you have to hop the padding lasts an extremely long time. We haven't tried the Teams integration yet as our primary phone system is RingCentral. We use Teams for video calls and messaging mainly with the occasional audio calls. These are definitely worthy of a purchase. I can't believe the value you get. For this price range, you don't expect the material to feel so supple and full of quality. I haven't tried the wireless yet. I can't imagine replacing the Focus UC yet because 1) RingCentral softphones only allow Plantronics headsets to answer calls from the headset (all other headsets require that you answer on the computer on or on the wired controller) and 2) the Focus UC has a 100 ft range.
Finally got my headset in the mail! First impressions; the noise cancelling is amazing!! I can hardly hear my other coworkers and can easily focus on patients now. Every patient that gets on the line now sounds crystal clear - no static or breaking up. The headset itself is SUPER lightweight and comfortable. I'm usually messing around with my headset all day just trying to get comfortable. With these bad boys, I just pop them on and I'm good to go! I love that this headset has an additional Teams button, it is SO EASY to join Teams meetings now!
Other cheap headset just accumulate in peoples desk draws. The Microsoft Modern Headsets are popular, and staff want to take it with them when moving between teams. Sound quality is excellent, and the noise cancelling microphone boom offers good clarity while reducing background noise. These headsets are made for Microsoft Teams. Only downside is the price, it should be a little cheaper, however, they don’t end up in the waste, so the extra cost is worth it.
During COVID-19, I bought a pair of these headphones during enforced work from home. The functionality is great and the headphones are a delight to use, especially as the sound is in stereo. Fast forwards 12 months when a cheap pair of headphones failed, and an additional pair of these headphones was bought and saved the day. Highly recommended!
These seem to be tuned specially for making phone calls. The sound is crisp, which makes calls from low quality phones sound really clear. The quality of the mic is also good. The mute and volume buttons work great, both on Windows and macOS (I use these headphones on both operating systems). I can't speak for the Teams button; I don't use it and think it is a waste of space. In general, the headphones are good quality. I wished the ear cups were made of a breathable fabric, as they can get kinda hot on your ears. Plus, that faux leather on headphones usually starts to flake off after a year (I have had these headphones for a couple of months and that hasn't happened yet). The noise cancelling feature is not that great but works pretty well if you have a low-noise ... MoreThese seem to be tuned specially for making phone calls.

The noise cancelling feature is not that great but works pretty well if you have a low-noise environment. They are pretty light and their grip won't give you a headache. However, the ear cups don't rotate, so it's hard to get a good seal on them. And finally, there is the hotspot on my head because of the headband. It is comfortable, but after a couple of hours of making calls, it becomes an issue. DO NOT use these headphones to listen to anything else other than phone calls. They are terrible for music, just awful. I say that because I think I read a comment here about how awful these sound with music; they are simply not made for that but for call center jobs.
This is a lightweight headset, and is tuned heavily for teams and phone audio. Pros: Inexpensive Stereo Teams Controls (when they work) Very clear with phone calls Cons: Earcups are 100% fixed in place... no swivel or tilt Multimedia audio is mediocre at best We are testing Microsoft Teams Phones, and my bluetooth headset wasn't cutting it. I've used plantronics headsets for phones for years, and I understand that a quality, durable headset can feel cheap and flimsy at first. This Microsoft Modern USB Headset feels like that. I think it's a quality product meant to be as light as possible for maximum comfort. Where comfort falls apart is the fact that the headband is the only truly adjustable part of this headset. Sure the boom mic pivots, but it does not go in or ... MoreThis is a lightweight headset, and is tuned heavily for teams and phone audio.

I've used plantronics headsets for phones for years, and I understand that a quality, durable headset can feel cheap and flimsy at first. This Microsoft Modern USB Headset feels like that. I think it's a quality product meant to be as light as possible for maximum comfort. Where comfort falls apart is the fact that the headband is the only truly adjustable part of this headset. Sure the boom mic pivots, but it does not go in or out. The cups on the ears also do not pivot at all, so on my apparently oddly shaped head, I get more pressure at the back of the cups than the front, and the headset feels like it's trying to squeeze off the front of my head. This is enough of an issue, that I'm returning the headset. The included cord is a decent length, and seems like a nice cable... it straightened out nicely overnight, and is of medium softness/flexibility. The earcups are hard and hollow, so on a beard they do ""amplify"" movement/scratch sounds. The controller seems mixed at best. On windows 10, the teams specific buttons did not seem to work well at all, even with the Microsoft accessory app installed. On Windows 11, the teams and call buttons worked great... The speakers are tuned for the human voice, and sound great with dialog, but fall flat with music and multimedia. Even equalization apps don't seem to alter the sound of the headset, I'm assuming due to the USB nature of the headset and how the sound interface is defined in the system. So the sound is largely non-adjustable. If your head is normal, and you care first and foremost about call quality, this is a great headset. If you're looking for an ""all-rounder"" for people with all shapes and sizes, I'd go for a more adjustable headset. I'm going to try out the Poly Blackwire 5220 next which should check all the boxes save for a Teams-optimized controller.
This may be perfectly fine if your intended use is ONLY on a computer. Most modern cellphones have a USB-C jack and will recognize this as both a microphone and headphone, which is very nice if you talk on the phone a lot (e.g. for work, interviews, etc.) HOWEVER, while it works well in the general sense the volume available, even turned all the way up, is simply not sufficient when used as a phone headset. In a quiet place it will work but not if there's ANY noise in the environment or if you prefer it a BIT louder -- and I do mean a BIT too; it's VERY low on volume even at the maximum setting. You'd think Microsoft could get this right. You'd be wrong. NOT recommended if your use case includes a cellphone.
