Excellent cheap gaming/general use headset

These are my favorite headphones. This is a re-purchase after wearing a pair I received as a gift to death. I am not an audiophile. To be honest I can barely hear the difference between these and my boyfriend's $300 Sennheisers. That doesn't mean there isn't a difference - there is absolutely a massive one. It just doesn't bother me. If sound quality is your biggest concern, be prepared to spend a lot more than you would here. For non-audiophile gaming, listening to music, conversations, and so on, these are perfectly adequate. They have directional sound so you can always tell who's shooting at you, and sufficient sound quality to be able to hear all the different parts of the orchestra, even if it's not as crisp and balanced as a more expensive headset. Comfort is the biggest one for me. I wear these headphones anywhere between 6 and 13 hours a day with minimal breaks. When new these were a little tight but they broke in quickly and now are comfortable. My ears never feel pinched and the extremely light design never makes my head tired. Another aspect is that I don't like to be shut off from things going on around me. These obviously block some sound and I do have to take them off if I need to focus on a conversation, but I can talk to people comfortably with them on. And also be able to hear the rain outside, people and pets moving around in the kitchen, and so on. The mic is fairly decent quality. Again, it's nothing like the infinitely superior standalone mics. You wouldn't want to make professional-ish youtube videos or do voice acting with this mic. For gaming, online conversations, skype, streaming, and so on, where the quality expectations are lower, it's absolutely sufficient. The only complaint I ever have about my voice online is that it is too loud, and I think that's just me. :) I'm comfortable with how my voice sounds in recordings, as well. It just isn't as good as the sound you get from a $60-120 standalone mic, but again, if that's what you're looking for, you're not going to get it with $30. Build quality and quality assurance are fantastic, as one would expect from Logitech. Like I said I wore my first pair to death. I don't remember when I got it but it had to have been at least 6 years ago, and I use these very heavily and am not careful with them (many drops to the floor, liquid spills, yanks on the cable, and so on). The final failure point was the usb cable - it got to the point where I had to tape the cable in a very specific position in order to get sound out of both ears, and I decided to replace it. At that point the foam ear cups were also coming apart and leaving little bits of black plastic everywhere. However, they were still functional and I have them in my closet as an emergency backup. The one part that's a little less durable is the headband. It's adjustable and has little clicky bits to hold it at the right place. I find that it doesn't stay in the right place and slowly slips down (when it's new, it doesn't do this, but after a few months it starts to slip down). At first you'll find you're re-adjusting them every few weeks, but eventually you have to do it a few times a week. Not a big deal especially considering the price.

Great value

This is an excellent headset. I work from home and spend most of my day in Teams meetings, so I need something reliable, comfortable, easy to use, and capable of blocking out background noise (cats, kids, garbage trucks—you name it). I previously checked Wirecutter and purchased the Jabra Evolve2 50, but it was very unreliable for me. There’s nothing worse than speaking during a meeting and having your wired headset suddenly not be detected. I never even had that issue with the inexpensive company-issued headsets I used before. After that happened several times, I decided enough was enough and gave these $15.99 (!!) headsets a try based on the positive reviews. They’ve worked amazingly well so far, honestly, much better than the $200 Jabra headset they replaced. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I don’t run into detection issues later, but even if I did, at this price point, they’re still a great value.

Great noise cancelling headset!

The Logitech H390 Wired Headset has been a great addition to my work setup. The sound quality is clear for both calls and music, and the noise-cancelling microphone does a really good job of reducing background noise during meetings. It’s lightweight and comfortable enough to wear for long periods, even during back-to-back video calls. I also like the simple plug-and-play USB connection and the handy in-line controls for volume and mute. The cable length is generous too, which makes it easy to move around without feeling restricted. Overall, a reliable and affordable headset that works perfectly for working from home, online meetings, or everyday use.

Reliable Workhorse; Great Value for Contact Center Use.

Solid, dependable choice. I use these regularly for my contact center operations and keep buying replacements as needed. They’re comfortable enough for long shifts, the audio quality is clear for both calls and meetings, and the microphone does a good job picking up voice without too much background noise. Build quality is strong for the price point, and they hold up well under daily use. Great balance of quality, comfort, and affordability; exactly what you need in a work headset.
