Logitech Mobile Express Bluetooth Headset Review

Logitech Mobile Express Bluetooth Headset
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was excited to find a sub $40 blue tooth headset...especially from a brand name like Logitech. I have several of their other products and have been quite happy with them as an organization. Although it will take more than one bad experience to turn from Logitech, this purchase left somewhat of a bad taste in my mouth.
The functionality is great. Pairs extremely well with my LG VX8100 from Verizon. However, the sound and mic quality are poor. The headset often has difficulty recognizing commands, especially the "YES" command. Frustrating to say the least. I also have had several complaints about the sound quality, from "you sound muffled" to "you sound like you are at the end of a tunnel".
Unfortunately, I am outside the return policy. If I wasn't traveling so much I would have returned it.

Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound Review

Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound

(More customer reviews)
First, off, I've only had this headset for a day. I can't really go into detail about sound quality, how good the surround sound is, etc. However, I feel like I need to clarify a couple of things.
There are two major issues that people have been complaining about with this headset: the "flimsy plastic" joints holding the ear cups on, and the lack of a graphic equalizer. Please disregard anyone who mentions either of these two "problems," because it is completely false.
If you look closely at the ear cup joints, yes, there is plastic there. However, if you pay attention, the plastic isn't actually the part that's moving. It's merely a covering for the actual joint. On the back of the box, under "Durability," it clearly states that the joints are made from an aircraft grade aluminum alloy. This is a very well made product guys, I get no sense that, if treated properly (take your game rage out on something that costs a bit less, children) it will ever break on me.
Now, I'm not quite sure why people are saying there's no graphic equalizer, and that they are limited to bass and treble adjustments. Directly below the bass/treble bars, there's a big button that looks like a graphic equalizer. If you click it, guess what happens. Yep, a 10 band EQ pops right up, complete with preamp volume adjustment. If you have this turned on, it grays out and overrides the bass/treble adjustments.
Now that I've cleared that up, I'll give my one day impressions on the product.
Super comfortable. I have a fairly large head, and yes, the headset does squeeze a little tighter than what you might be used to, but that's because the headband is made of metal and not cheap plastic. It's the squeeze of quality, learn to love it. It's not a bad thing at all, you just might not be used to it. After a few days of breaking it in, I doubt I'll even notice.
The sound quality seems fantastic so far. I'm still working on getting it to sound just right with my game of choice, TF2. With movies, music, tv shows, etc, it's just amazing. Crystal clear, rich, amazing sound.
I initially had problems with the mic, people in Team Fortress 2 were telling me that it was cutting out, and screwing up sound for everyone (if you've ever played the game, you know what I'm talking about). This was fixed by turning the mic gain way way down. I've been so used to mics that are super quiet, so I had windows set to max out and boost mic input, and maxed out mic input through the game as well. Turned the levels down quite a bit and presto, clear as a bell.
One thing I don't like, the mic level resets itself every time I unplug the headset (rather, the usb dongle) then plug it back up. It remembers every other setting, just not mic gain. I've solved this by setting one of the G keys to reduce mic gain, so if I ever launch a game and accidentally leave it set too high, I can easily fix it on the fly.
Speaking of the G keys, I was kind of disappointed that they work with ventrilo, but not teamspeak. No big deal though. Still, I was hoping to be able to sit on my porch and chill in our TS channel and be able to chat with people. (I have to go outside to smoke here...ahem >.>...you know what I mean.)
The wireless range and battery life really seem to be just as good as advertised, which was a very nice surprise. I can go anywhere in my house and still have completely clear audio. The majority of my front porch gets signal as well, and that's going between three walls. Last night I went in game with only a partial charge, the software said 7 hours of battery life left. I played a little over two hours, left game, and it said I still had five hours left. Good stuff.
I love this headset. Completely. After years of frustration over broken wires ruining headsets, I could not be happier with this product. If you've got a nice, functioning headset already, like a g35 or whatever, I couldn't justify telling you to purchase this. However, if you've got a cheap POS, or if you're in the market to buy a new headset because you rolled over your current pair's wires one too many times with your chair, I couldn't recommend this enough. I've never spent this much money on one before, I've always been in the 50-70 dollar range. Dropping 160 wasn't easy for me to do, money is tight these days. I don't regret the purchase at all.

Works great on Windows 7 x64. I installed the UK drivers (downloaded from logitech UK website) and it integrates flawlessly with Skype. If you need Skype functionality, do not use the drivers from the CD in the box (due to some licensing disputes, it does not include Skype support.)
The quality of the speakers/mic is really good.

Inland 87076 USB Powered Bass Vibration Headset Review

Inland 87076 USB Powered Bass Vibration Headset
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
when i bought it the name was "Anubis Typhoon Bass Vibration Headset"
it's the exact same headset in every respect(just do a google search for the anubis)
on to the review:
It's really a quite excellent headset for all uses, initially i purchased it for voicechat in games, and the microphone is very good.
the sound is very clear, no problems with even very loud sounds being transmitted through the microphone, top quality microphone.
now on to the interesting bit, the sound.
i was surprised how powerful the bass boost is, without distorting the sound.
I'm not into music that requires a lot of bass, but it made a lot of games sound really good, and it gave a certain feel to it when thunder struck in the game and the headset literally shaked on your head ;)
if you turn the bass boost off the sound remains good, and the sound becomes more "natural" but it's still a very clean sound no matter how high you turn up the volume.
that leads on to the only negative comment i have on this headset, on my system the max volume weren't very loud, it was loud enough, but there was a few instances where i would have liked it to go a little higher...but in 99% of the cases it was fine.
last point on this headset is how comfortable it is to wear for extended periods of time: this headset fits most people really well, and despite the size it's really not heavy, the longest i wore it without taking it off(long raid in a game hehe)was a bit over 8 hours, and it didn't get uncomfortable at any point.
so thumbs up for this excellent headset from me.

Overall, the speakerphone works great. However, every now & then, folks at the other end have reported hearing an echo - so keep a pair of headphones as backup or be ready to hit the mute button when you're not talking.
