H540

Was looking for a lightweight headphone replacement with retractable mike and settled on the Logitech High-performance USB Headset H540. It did not disappoint. The fit is comfortable and can be worn for hours without any discomfort. The ear pieces contour well to the ear and angle slightly inward to add to the comfort. The padding is soft, but also allows the ears to breath (not ear encompassing). Ear height to to head arc/rest adjustments are as easy as a slide click away. Sound quality is excellent for gaming, YouTube, podcasts, music, movies, Discord, Zoom, etc. with crisp dynamic range, however, it could use more Bass support. The flip down mic with mute (lighted indicator an added plus) is equally excellent, clear and concise. The fact that the mic can be flipped up and hidden when not in use is a great design. It is very lightweight and not bulky at all. If you want a single ear with and ear free configuration, the left ear can even be positioned off ear without a problem and still be comfortable. Recommended.

i recently bought all five levels of Rosetta Stone to improve my Italian. The package came with a cheap looking headset. Rosetta Stone is a language learning program that requires you to both listen to a foreign language and speak it back. My language learning has been handicapped by my own hearing issues and the fact that I wear hearing aids. If I listen to an unfamiliar foreign word, I have to be able to hear it clearly, and that's been a struggle in face to face conversation, to say nothing of straining to clearly hear words in an unfamiliar language through the filter of a computer headset. The headset that came with the Rosetta Stone CDs produced muffled, unintelligible speech. I hauled out an older Logitech headset that I'd always thought worked fairly decently with Skype calls, but it actually wasn't much better. The Italian words spoken on the CDs still sounded like the speaker was distant and hard to hear. Both the Logitech and Rosetta Stone headsets made my hearing aids squeal with so much feedback that I had to take them out, making it even harder for me to hear. I started looking for options and found the Logitech h540 headest on Amazon Prime. The reviews were impressive and in two days I was plugging them into a USB Port on my computer. I pulled up the Rosetta Stone and plunged back into the world of spoken Italian. I was stunned. I am still grinning.I just finished a lesson and scored 100%. I could hear every word as if a native speaker was sitting right across from me. The clarity of speech was startling. It was like I had somehow gotten my 20-year old hearing back. I even left my hearing aids in and there was not a peep or hint of feedback. YIPPEE! I threw my old headset into the garbage. This one is a winner! It even has a mute button and a =/- volume control right on the headband where it's easy to reach. I often make Skype calls to relatives in Germany and this truly excellent headset is going to make a huge improvement in call quality there too.I am happy to recommend it to you.

I'd call this a really good entry-level headset if you're looking for something straightforward that works well without breaking the bank. The H540 is lightweight and super easy to use - just plug and play, no complicated setup needed. The sound quality is solid for the price point, and the mic picks up voice clearly without issues. I used it regularly for work calls and basic gaming before upgrading to a wireless option (mainly needed more freedom of movement). For the price, you're getting a reliable headset that handles the basics well. It's comfortable enough for long wearing sessions and the USB connection is hassle-free whether you're on Windows or Mac. If you need an inexpensive headset that works well and you don't mind being tethered to your computer, this is a great option. Sure, there are fancier headsets out there, but for basic use - calls, gaming, music - this one definitely delivers good value for money. Bottom line: Perfect starter headset or budget option for anyone who needs something simple and reliable.

I still give the headset 5 stars. Its just was not compatible with my jobs phone systems. It was so comfortable and sound is great and ease of the mute button at my finger tips!

When comparing the volume of the mic (set to max) to the playback volume of the headphones.... I found it severely lacking. Mic audio quality was nice but it just wasnt that loud. I could shout but not clip, meaning... Any work that requires me to listen to audio while speaking is not for this headphone. The buttons on the headphones are incredibly soft. The mute button is easy to find but I did find myself having to look for the volume up and down a lot. Also, mic arm is short... Too short. And then the LED that lets you know you're muting the headphone is a little close to me. I would have wanted it a foot farther so I could actually see it in my periphery. I will say that they sound great = i can hear voices loud and clear without them being harsh. One weird mic quirk... It is extremely senstive to some really high pitch but not irritating sounds like clacking of keyboards, ruffling noise when rubbing hand rests for keyboard or mouse pads. I... Will not buy these again but I would say they are worth the money.

Product is too good

Apenas llego, la cale con mi compu y el sonida estaba muy bueno, lo voy a usar para tomar llamadas, y luego les aviso, pero hasta horita se ve como buena calidad. Las esponjas estan super comodas.

Perfect USB lync headset that I was looking. It has noise cancelling feature and ear pads are very comfortable for Hours of meetings without any discomfort.
