Rating: - For how long it works, it is not worth it!
At first I loved this headset. It was very simple, looked good, it was compact, wireless, and its volume was great.
After using it, there were some glitches that I found. When the battery is running low, the headset would make a loud static sound. And sometimes it would make your voice sound as if it was underwater. This seemed to only happen when the headset was low on batteries. The plus side is that a majority of the time it did work well.
Now the HUGE complaint I do have on these headsets is the lifespan of it. These headsets only come with a 90-day warranty. After 4 months of use, mine would no longer hold a charge, sort of like the battery went bad. The down side is that you cannot purchase a battery to fix this problem. You will have to buy a whole new headset.
I contacted xbox warranty for this issue and they told me there is nothing that can be done and that I new one has to be purchased. They cannot even fix the existing one that just needs a simple battery replacement. And they will not sell the battery by itself.
So after hearing the news about this, I did a search on the internet. It seems as if this battery problem is not just with me, but with several other 100 customers that purchased this cheap headset. The battery lifespan seems to only last a few months This headset cost around $60.00 and it only lasted 4-5 months, it is not a wise investment.
Rating: - An Unnecessary (and annoying) Luxury
At first I thought it would be novel to play online without the hassle of wires, so I spent over $50 on this. It turned out to be more annoying than it was worth.
It is heavy to support on your ear.
It is annoying to recharge.
It is difficult for your 360 to "locate"
Trust me, save the money and just use a headset like everyone else.
Rating: - Workes good but breaks after a week
Xbox 360 Wireless Headset I bought this headset as a gift to my self for x mas and it worked great. However after about two weeks of good use it broke. It would not charge when i put it in the console or a computer and when i called microsoft to see if i could get a repair and they said that it would cost 29.99 so i just returned it to amazon insted. So this headset is verry cheap but sounds good
Rating: - hope it works
I purchased this product and it quit working within a week. I took it back to the store and exchanged it only for it to quit working again. I called xbox and they said they'd replace it. I sent it in and they sent it back without the charger. I've been talking with them for over a week about trying to obtain a charger so I can use the item, but they keep telling me to wait 48 hours and then they call again and say to wait again. This would probably be a great product if it worked and I could get all the pieces.
If you buy this product I hope your luck is better than mine.
Rating: - Waste of money
Hard to hear other plays and they can't hear me. Only works with one of my two controllers. I now use the old headset that came with my 360.
