 Comfortable and convenient April 26, 2008
I MUCH prefer this headset over the stock headset that comes with the 360. however, I wish they would've kept the on-plug mute switch instead of putting it in-line where I have to stop and look at it to switch it off.
 Starts off good, but starts to stink March 18, 2008

I thought this headset was great when I first got it. It fit securely, and it did not pick up much outside noise in the microphone. I liked it much better than the original 360 headset, and another Plantronics Headset (that I broke).
Anyway, like I said, the first month I had this headset, the earpiece sat comfortably and firmly in my ear. However, within the past 2-3 weeks, the rubber piece that keeps the headset attached to the side of your face has gotten REALLY loose. It constantly moves around on my face now, and I can't keep the microphone to stay near my mouth. It drops down all the way to my neck, and people can never hear me.
I would defnititely recommend NOT buying this headset. It worked well in the beginning, but in the long run, I would go with something else.
 Great, Comfortable Headset February 18, 2008
Xbox 360 Under Ear Headset
This is actually my second Plantronics under-ear headset. My first was eaten by my dog. I have used this headset for a little over a year and have had no problems with it thus far(other than my dog thinking it was a toy). It sits nice and comfortably under the ear. The adjustable mic arm also allows for good positioning of the mic, so you can avoid the heavy breathing problem that some mics encourage. I have worn this mic for several hour gaming sessions and it does not get uncomfortable. Overall I highly recommend this mic, especially over the OEM xbox headset.
Useless microphone. February 9, 2008
Well I bought this to go with my AX360 5.1 headset for the 360 since it would fit under nicely and at first it was alright.
Number one issue even though you can rotate the mic it is only in the right position one way. The other way it's sticking out to the side.
The incredibly big issue though is the microphone is incredibly horrible. The Xbox can never pick up your voice unless your yelling and even then it's as if your whispering. I think quality control should have picked up on this issue.
I tried plugging it into my cell phone and it was incredibly quiet. After a month of use, I finally twisted the mic a bit to much and that was the end of the mic. I found a cell headset for $10 that was much better than this.
For all my troubles though I had Plantronics send me another one, just so it could sit in the package. At least I got two crappy headsets for the price of just one in the end.
 Great deal, great alternative, great idea January 26, 2008
I'll be honest, when I was reading the other reviews, I was a little skeptical about whether it would actually fit my ear. Let me tell you this... after wearing it for hours on end while playing Call of Duty 4, I could barely tell that it was in my ear. However, I will tell you this: if you don't get it in your ear the proper way, your ear will hurt within minutes. But, after a little adjustment, it goes right back into place and feels great. I thought was a perfect length (about 3 feet) and the volume control on the cord is fantastic. There is a switch for mute and also a volume control that offers a wide range of volume for people who have voices that are soft and loud. The only recommendation that I would make for future under ear headsets is for the mic arm to be flexible. As of right now, it's not bendable and basically comes preformed to fit the side of your face. But, it fit me pretty good. As for the price, it's definitely worth it. I paid just under $20 and had it in my hand in about 5 days. Like I said, it's a great deal, a great idea, and a great alternative to those bulky xBox Live headsets that come with the system.
