Digital camera reviews of Logitech Premium Stereo Headset with Noise-Canceling Microphone
Digital camera Review: Better than the Price
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this Headset mainly for Gaming. The Sound quality is extremely good. While using the Headset, it blocks out all sounds around your environment. Once you get used to them they are very comfortable, but at first it will bug your ears. The cord is lengthy enough to move around and doesnt get in the way, and also has a Volume control that is easy access on the actual cord. I wanted an expensive Headset, and my mom wanted me to buy a cheap one, we settled for the in between price after reading other peoples reviews and looking at the design. I am very satisfied with this Headset, Logitech for teh win.Digital camera Review: Beware

I gave this headset to my sister for Christmas. It worked once and never again. What a lot of work to ship it and have it be such a disappointment. I could hear her the first night and then nothing. Now she can't even hear with it. I will have to figure out how to return it. Don't buy this.Digital camera Review: Cheap and friendly
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these for a cheap and disposable online gaming headset. They work perfectly fine for Team Fortress 2 or Counter Strike Source etc. Clear sound with good voice transmit clarity, it makes such a huge difference for your team mates to be able to talk over tactics before the next uber rush... reading other reviews you would think theres something wrong with these out of the box but thats just incorrect. When your sound card is setup correctly for using a microphone, something most systems are not set up to use correctly until they are configured as such, I have had no issues. People on the other side of the planet can hear me just as well as when playing on a local server and despite what other reviews have said, I have had them on my head for six hour gaming marathons for the past few weekends and no discomfort at all. The nose canceling works as advertised.
These are not fancy, come cheap, are made of rigid plastic etc but for the price they surpassed my expectations. I do not expect them to last too long due to materials (maybe 12 months if I am not too drunk when playing) however for the price, with the excellent performance I have experienced I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any serious gamer.
Digital camera Review: Cheap and works well.

I use them regularly. They are cheap, durable and good quality speaker and microphone but they are hurting my ear lobes if I use them for long time.Digital camera Review: Comfortable, but broke after several month's use
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this pair of headphones at an office supply store and used them primarily for Skype.
The initial setup was a bit of a pain, primarily because I had to track down and modify an advanced setting in the RealTek HD Audio Manager. I don't know if I can blame that on Logitech or not, but it was still a hassle.
The comfort level was is good, although they do get a bit snug on the ears after a while, especially if you wear glasses.
The headphones worked fine for 3 months, then the inline volume control developed a short and the left speaker is full of static and only works about half the time. I can usually tweak the volume control to get it to work, but it's still a pain.
I think I'm pretty much done purchasing products from Logitech. I've owned five or six other items over the years and it seems like they work for a while, then break either due to manufacturing issues or because they aren't supported through OS updates.
September 2010 update - after another 6 months of use the microphone crapped out. These headphones were a complete POS.
