Poor craftsmanship

 

Take a pass on these. I'm very disappointed in their durability.

They sound great for the price. There a little tight, but for the most part are comfortable

They get very warm with extended use. They are made of cheap plastic. Mine cracked in less than a year and are unusable at this point. Be very careful when pulling them apart to put over your head because they will break

PLANTRONICS GameCom 377

 

Had them for 4 months and the plastic broke on one side where it bends to put them on your head. I took a look at the other side and a crack is developing there as well. Great headphones but they don't last long.

Great Audio ; Inline Volume Control

Mute Microphone switch gives feedback over VOIP applications ; Flimsy Plastic

Great for a tiny head!

 

These would be a great headset if they weren't so tight. They look huge, but if you have a larger head, like I do, stay away or go with Plantronics new line, which are much more comfortable.

Excellent resistance

 

This is one of many Gaming Headsets I ever own, they are great for the price, very comfortable, good above average sound. I've purchased this back in September of 2010, and by far this is the most durable headset I ever own, I stopped buying expensive...

good sound but crappy design

 

They worked well for 3 months after that one of the sides that attach to the head extension broke without applied any force over it. The sound works well. I would not buy it again.

Overated

 

I bought this headset for a way cheaper price at $20. It was the exact same product. It does not last you for long. It had only lasted me for a few months when other at the price this one is at at least minimum last me 1 year. Yes it may be comfortable...

Consumer review by:

Not bad for the price.

 

I like the ability to mute on the set itself, it works great. My only gripe is, for me they seems to squeeze my ears a lil too tight, but the spot it rests on my head is very comfortable. The sound from these embarasses my cheap desktop speakers, if i...

Great Headset, Even If it's Not on Sale

 

I bought this on sale (just under $25), in great part because of the price, but also because of the fantastic reviews. I was very impressed by the comfort of the headset, as well as the price. I'm very picky about sound, all my music is in lossless...
