I was skeptical about Plantronics at first when purchasing this headset. After reading the reviews, I figured I'd try them out... I was glad I did. From the first time I put them on I was blown away by the great sound quality and comfort. Most headsets kill my ears, but these were comfortable and snug. The mic quality is far superior to my last set, the main reason I wanted a new headset was because of an annoying echo issue with my last set and the quality is clear and picks up my noise very well with minimal background interference. I highly recommend this!!!!

I bought 2 pairs of headsets when I ordered these. One being turtle bay for my husband and then these for myself. After a good 6 months of using these items we both agree that the Platronics GameCom are SOOO amazing compared to Turtle Bay. The cushioning and fit are extremely comfortable and dont not seem to weigh down your head. (While the Turtle Bay ended up hurting the tops of our heads and ears after a couple hours of wear). I wear these religiously while I play so up to 5-8 hours some days without complaint! Amazing surround sounds as well. People say the mic picks up background noise and having several headsets I have yet to have one mic that doesn't. So that should NOT stop you from purchasing these. Easy to set up and amazing comfort! :)

Pros:* Great Sound* Quick controls on the left side* Semi-long USB cable* Soft material on the earphones and head makes it comfortable to wear* Earphones turn inward resting the soft part against your collarbone, very comfortable resting spot* Sensitive Mic, doesn't need to be right at your mouth to get a clear voiceCons:* Heavier then I expected, takes a bit of getting used to* The material can get warm around your head and ears if worn for a long time* Can't adjust the headband part. You can only extend the earpiece parts down for comfort. I would have liked to make the headband a bit less tight* Earphones only rotate inward, I would have liked them to go in both directions.* Mic only moves down in one direction so you're forced to wear the mic piece on the left ear.I actually use these when I work. I can listen to music and quickly switch over to do a conference call without having to switch headsets. I find that I cannot keep them on for periods longer than 30-60 minutes because of their weight and the heat they cause around my ears but I think both will be things I eventually get used to. The quality of the headphones and mic are fantastic.

This headset comes close to perfection. The sound quality is amazing for a heaset at this price. The sound and the mic are good with it just being used as a plug and play. But when it is plugged into computer with the software installed the surround sound really makes the headset come alive. The noise cancelling mic does just that with no noticeable flaws. The 6 foot cord is not to long and not to short. This headset is a great buy at the $60 give or take price. Good quality headset. However it does have one minor flaw. I can still hear more outside noise than I would care to listen to. I mean that is the point of the ear muffs fully enclosing your ear, right? Other than comfort of course. I don't know if any other people that have purchased this same headset are having the same problem but everything else about the headset is superb. Despite minor flaw I would recomend this product to anyone.

Almost 6 months ago and i'm loving them. they've never given me a problem and they sound great.They've fallen off my desk a few times and are still intact so that's good!the only quarrel i have with them is that the wire tangles pretty easy, but pretty easy to straighten out, just unplug them and uncoil it.The nice long cable is great and allows me to step away from my computer to my shelves behind me and grab some items.The microphone sound great and have had Zero complaints on the audio quality of my voice.

I've had quite a few headsets over the years and I think this is actually my favorite one. Not because it's only $50, but because it's comfortable, the headset swivels to fit your head perfectly. It sounds amazing, the volume control, mute mic button are convenient. I've had the headset for about 2 weeks now. I'm never buying another headset, sounds like a headset you'd pay 100+ for1 MONTH LATER....Never had any comfort issues, worn it for 5+ hours at a time. EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE, I still can't stress how nice the swivel fits your head, and how I barely realize they are there. The surround sound is a little weird, perhaps because I don't play games like counterstrike which would benefit from surround sound. Comes with a button to turn the surround on/off. Still sounds amazing, love the volume control and mute mic convenience.

The sound on these were pretty great, but they were hard on the head at first. Took a little while to set them in a good position where they would not hurt my head. Also, it seems as though Plantronics likes to make headsets with very weak plastic, because I've had these for about a month and I can already feel the weakness in them. And my previous headset before these, was a Plantronics GameCom 367, those started to break from the sides pretty early on, but I was able to duct-tape them and use them for about a whole year till they just completely snapped.BOTTOM-LINE. These are NOT worth the cost unless you are willing to bare with the uncomfortable design, then end up spending more money for a new headset within a few months again.

I'm sure this will be corrected in time, but I was disappointed to plug these in only to find the dolby surround is not available on windows 8. They aren't as comfortable as my old Microsoft headset. They do feel like they are solidly built and it should last a good many years. Once they update the software, These should rock.Update - March 5, 2013I downloaded the update, but the surround sound makes everything sound like it's in a tin can. I prefer not to use it anyway. Go figure. At any rate, the headphones have held up well over 150 hours of use. I would still recommend these for any gamer.

I work at Best Buy, I have went through many headsets. I wasn't going to buy these until I saw all the reviews and thought I'd risk it. I was very happy to find out they used usb. I put on a song and I was just blown away by the amazing sound quality, Far better than any headset or headphones I've ever even used. First time in my life i'd actually say something is "under-priced"ps- running windows 8

I happened on these in Best Buy (had a gift card to use up). I saw them marked @ $59.99 and being a bit obsessed with headphones and having a problem with my PC motherboard onboard surround audio not working with Win7 due to lack of compatible drivers I thought they were worth a gamble. At about the same time I also ordered a Creative Audigy soundcard on Amazon so I could get the best out of my existing surround speakers again.1st, Price, I got a deal, Red Laser app on iPhone showed them @ $79.99 everywhere else AND at Best Buy, they had a sale tag left up from the previous week and had to honor it!2nd, Value, for the price you get a set of phones that would be perfect for watching a movie on a laptop or even larger screen and getting the full audio impact. The 7.1 surround simulation is surprisingly good. And you get a built in mic for other uses to boot.3rd, Quality, these appear to be very sturdy, plastic headband but it appears to be tough & durable.4th, Sound quality, a bit boomy for music especially with the surround on, but not bad overall. Highs are nice and clean. Awesome for games, Battlefield 3 being my first choice right now. The surround in the games seems very effective. More than once I've had to take these off because I though I heard something somewhere else in the house that was actually from the headphones! Directional sounds seem to be accurate, but I'm still getting used to the game. The bass is exceptional, I do feel like I have a subwoofer running.5th, Comfort, soft pads, a little tight at first but easy to get used to. More comfortable than many other over the head phones.Summary, good sounding, resonably priced, great solution for USB sound & mic in one. Not the prettiest, but fine for home use. I recommend them, perfect for someone with PC sound problems that would like a headphone.

This is my first gaming/mic headset I purchased, looking to use it for music and dictation, so I had no idea this didn't work off the standard audio port. I wrongly assumed all headphones had standard audio ports and thought the USB was additional connectivity. I had no clue some headsets used only USB. Lesson learned. I also missed that it had software and really missed it was Windows compatible. Product Features said nothing about software (the long description did) and certainly didn't mention it would not work on Mac. Since I could not rate the function of the product, my rating accounts my errors and is based on the fact that this did not say in the Product Features section that it functioned only on USB, that it required software, and that the software is only Windows compatible. I'm disappointed. Returning product...

i mostly play skyrim but the 5.1 surround sound is so good it actually sounds like you are in the studio sitting right next to the voice actors, so actually many times i don't have it enabled.i also use it for Saints Row the 3rd multiplayer and voice and sound is high quality.con: no amplifier really to speak of so listening to music isn't as loud as i would like. i have thought about an external amp for a while now so that may be a future purchase.con: feels flimsy kinda cheap build. however since purchase after more than 3 months it still works greatcon: short cord. simple fix get another usb cable.over all great value.

I love this headset! I got it for my birthday and I am very happy with it so far. The surround sound is noticeable, though you do have to adjust your settings quite a bit to get it perfect. The first time I listened to my music, I thought that something was wrong - I just hadn't listened in surround sound before. The headset is also great for Skype calls. I like to be in Skype with friends while playing games like COD or LoL. The mic is very clear, and everyone says they can hear me much better than when I was just using my laptop mic. Very happy with this present!

This product is my first pair of gaming headsets, and im relatively proud to announce how wonderful they sound. These headsets sound great,as good if not better than my skull candy aviators in regards to music. In terms of gaming these sound even better, the surround sound works flawlessly i can easily distinguish direction in bf3,cod, black light retribution. my one gripe with the product is the mic, it's advertised as noise canceling yet, that seems to be the one place where these headsets do not shine. These headsets pickup background noise almost constantly,weather it be a tv in the background, a side conversation going on, or even the barley audible hum of my fancase. The mic is the reason this product gets a 4 out of five instead of a five.

I'm returning them.Cons:+ First thing I noticed was that they were made of cheap plastic. VERY cheap plastic.+ The adjustment thing wasn't very sturdy. It was really easy to accidentally mess it up and you definitely had to re-adjust every time you put them on.+ They weren't very deep. My ears aren't huge, maybe they stick out a tiny bit, but they definitely weren't deep enough for me, which made them sore very quickly.+ Cloth on them is uncomfortable. Not very soft, I'd rather have the material most other headphones are made of.+ The cushions seem hard compared to other headphones.+ Cord wasn't long enough for my me, but that was more of my own fault.You're basically paying for the software that makes these headphones "7.1 surround sound" and not the actual headphones. Sure, the surround sound part was cool for a day, but then you start to notice how the actual headphones aren't so nice. Without the software, the sound quality isn't very good. I don't think I'l buy from this brand again. I tried on a nice pair from best buy for around the same price, and they were made from much better materials and just felt like they were much better quality. I think I'll go back there and see what they have instead.

Owned this headset for 2 months now. The right speaker is already dying, and popping randomly every minute or so. Not very impressive for 60 dollars. Starting the warranty process, but I already see I am going to be on the hook for shipping cost if my claim is accepted. Not a very good way of doing business considering the lack of quality is the only reason the set is going dead. I would look elsewhere, spend a few more dollars, and get something that might actually last. Very disappointed =(.

I didn't notice the surround sound effect until after an few days of constant use. Mainly because it sounds like an echo. It wasn't until I was watching a movie that included big explosions and affects. that I realized that the bass was perfect with the surround on. But while it was off the headset sounded just like any other headset. I would recommend these to people who watch a lot of action or adventure movies. So you can hear the 7.1 surround sound out of the headset.

I agree with most of the positive reviews in here (great sound quality for the price), but thought I'd add that I had some trouble getting the installer to work in Windows 8. Plantronics website wasn't super helpful, but running the compatibility tool fixed it.(Also, all the people who mentioned the extra steps required to get it to actually be in 7.1 - thanks! Way worth it.)So, dropped it a star on this product for not being super clear on the extra steps needed to get full use, as well as for some mild comfort issues (may just be me, but even at maximum looseness, after a couple of hours of gaming, my upper jaw starts to hurt where the earphone is pushing on it.)

I usually don't write reviews for items I buy on Amazon, but I feel like these deserve a review. They are a very good quality mic. for a very reasonable price. I don't want to go on and on so I will just say three things.1) They are great for listening to music because it makes you feel like there are stereos all around you.2) They are great for gaming because of easy access to sound controls include mute.3) They are great for extended sessions of wear because of the comfort and quality of design.Hope this helps to persuade you to buy. :)

I would recommend this to anyone doesn't want to spend a fortune on a headset.I bought a pair of these about a year ago for the purpose of having a gaming headset. I wasn't expecting much because they were really cheap. I was surprised by the quality and comfort in this product. The built in microphone is fantastic. No distortion or fuzzy audio.The audio quality in the earphones are what you would expect. It's adequate for your average gamer or programs like skype.The headset itself if pretty comfortable. I can wear it for hours and forget it's even there. Normally my ears would begin to sweat after extended use, but the cloth in earpieces seem to prevent that.The only con is that headset seems to be fairly fragile. I dropped it 2 feet onto my desk and one of the earphones popped off. Luckily I was able to fix it without problems.A quality product that should last a long time. (Just don't drop it.)

Overall I rate this product a 4.5 out of 5. It has amazing sound and they feel very well built. My only small bother is, when I am browsing online. I'll be browsing youtube I want to use the headphones, I connect them via usb, yet the audio on the browser disappears. I can hear the Window's sounds but nothing on the browser, the only fix to this is to restart the system and opening a new browser window with the headphones already plugged in. The same applies if I am already running any Steam Game and then I want to plug in the headphones. I have to quit Steam, plug the headphones and then start gaming. :/ It can get annoying, but other than this minor flaw (which I hope I am doing something wrong and there is a solution to it), The Headset is a great purchase for the price, build quality and sound performance.

I must say that I was impressed by this headset. The virtual surround sound 7.1 dolby digital actually makes a noticeable difference as opposed to just stereo. The thing I really like about this headset is the usb input it uses instead of the typical mic and headphone output jack. Most computers have more usb ports than mic and headphone ports thus this makes it a really convenient feature. Moreover, the headset features a swivel hinge on both sides that allow the earpiece to be turned 360 degrees. This feature is very useful since there are times one wants to rest the earpieces on their shoulders or table. The headset is very comfortable and has a felt-like material covering the earpads and top of the headset. At first, the headset is a bit tight but that easily becomes loosened over time as I could wear these for a hefty amount of time without feeling any discomfort. The quality of the sound is the real deal here. I play left 4 dead 2, battlefield 3, counterstrike source and Fear 3 regularly and I can tell you that the surround sound is unbelievable. I can hear footsteps, grunting, rain drops, grenade pins being pulled and all those ambient sounds that really bring immersion to the games. I have used razer headsets and this plantronics 780 is better than some of those. Comparably, the price is what makes this headset attractive since it features top notch sound and comfort with affordable price. I cannot say much about the durability but I do know that the older plantronic gamecom headset tended to crack at the head piece. This headset seems to be a bit sturdier and has a more solid feel to the plastic. Lastly, the gamecom drivers and software that come with this headset allows one to switch from gaming/movie mode to music mode in windows. I would highly recommend this headset to anyone out there.

I definitely recommend this headset if you game on PC. The 7.1 works amazingly for music and games. The ear cups feel comfortable and soft. If you need to take a break, just swivel the cups and set them on your shoulders. The mic is high quality, and my cousin and I can hear each other perfectly in Teamspeak and Skype calls.Pros: comfortable, great sound, nice build, light, swivel.Cons: After a while you might feel a slight discomfort in the top of your ears if you wear glasses.Overall I give this headset a 5 star rating because of the pros outnumbering the cons. If you are hesitant to get this headset I would definitely give it a try. The surround sound makes a big difference. My cousin and I both got a set for Christmas and we enjoy them.Happy Gaming.-ZefpheX

Seriously, look no further. For the price, this is one of the best headsets you could buy. Compared it with one my buddies beats by dre. Yeah right, that's all i can say. Sure the bass isn't as deep as on the beats. But everything else soars above. Comfort, sound +10. the environment it puts you in is quite impressive. The 2 inch ear holes creates an auditorium on your head. Not to mention it looks pretty sleek and stylish as well.all in all - don't waste your or your parents 250 dollars on an expensive head set. I recommend getting the 780 here and if you are looking for headphones to use with your ipod, buy the adapter USB to Headphone adapter off amazon i believe it's only 5 bucks.
