The mic works well too. This gets the job done I like it. good, especially for the price, CLEAR, GREAT SOUND. I got myself a phone number thingy through skype so I can call people from my comp since I HAVE NO CELL reception in my house.
Also use it for other audio on my computer, so I can enjoy the sound but others around me don't have to. This headset is a good value. I use this headset for Skype calls -- great audio quality both listening and speaking. Very comfortable, even over my glasses.
I'm sure it works great on a PC, and the audio output worked fine - I could hear people on Skype - but they couldn't hear me. Nevertheless I tried it on my Mac and sure enough, the microphone doesn't send any data to the computer. Experience has shown that your best bet is to go to a store and make sure it says on the box that it's compatible with Mac. At the time of this writing the item page on Amazon says this headset works with both PC and Mac. However, on receiving the headset I noticed the box only says it works with a PC. In case you're wondering, yes I checked that my settings in Skype were correct.So, do not buy this product if you intend to use it on your Mac.
The sound control device is handy. The fit is comfortable (much better than ear buds). Logitech also makes a wireless version of this headset Logitech 981-000068 ClearChat Wireless USB Headset - Black, but for about four times the cost. I bought this headset so I could listen to Internet radio at work. The sound quality is surprisingly good. I don't need the microphone and would just as soon detach it, but that does not seemm to be possible.
This is a great, inexpensive option for a headset. I haven't had any problems with it and would purchase it again.
