Asus HS-W1 Wireless Headset Review

Music, gaming, chatting, it does.

Classy design; well built; above avg. performance; easy-to-carry

8hour battery life; mic is just about okay

The wireless works well, although the tiny up-time of under 8 hours (from fully charged to completely dead) is rather disappointing. Of course, you will not have an 8 hour session, but if you listen to a lot of music, you will find yourself constantly...

Asus HS-W1 review

Fantastic sound, shame about the headset's comfort

Very good sound quality ; Good recording quality

Not very comfortable ; Lack of precise controls

The Asus HS-W1 wireless USB headset has very good sound quality, but it feels like Asus has forgotten to concentrate on other, arguably just as important, aspects that make a great headset.

Fantastic Headset!

Definitely worth the price I am thoroughly impressed with this headset!

These Headphones are fantastic as they look, feel, and act quite professional. The Leather ear pads feel great on the ears and are very comfortable. They charge via USB Micro, which is fantastic because those cables are super easy to come by since...

Because the ear pads are leather the headset doesn't "grip" your head. Since this is the case if your not careful the headset may fall off your head if you tilt your head downward

Great for its price range

The "random beeping" noises are the headset's way of telling you that its battery is low. A wireless headset is the second most-important contributor to my productivity and happiness as a computer user in my life. I bought the "low-end" model after...

Good range ; Good sound quality ; Sturdy ; Sufficiently Adjustable

Proprietary connector (usb dongle) - can't use it with audio devices like MP3 players or stereos ; Flat, "leather" earpads were difficult to get used to, versus foam pads or ear cups

ASUS HS-W1

Lightweight, fits nice on my small head, most headsets are bulky and too big. Sound is great

I play WoW on ventrillo, and trying to figure the positing of the mic so it works or inst muted very tricky. The instructions are the worst I've ever seen ; The microphone needs to be all the way down to speak with push to talk, if you tilt it up its...

ASUS Headset

I would not recommend purchasing this headset.

Light-weight and comfortable. Price is affordable and the carrying case is convenient

The headset beeps often for seemingly no reason since i bought it. Now ofter about a month of owning it seems to be having trouble charging. I move the usb plug trying to get it right but that doesn't help or if it does not for very long
