2 out of 5 stars Who designed these? new click   July 19, 2008
J. Kirk (London, England)
I find it quite amazing that none of the previous reviewers cared to comment on the ridiculous... what would usually be a head strap, but in the case of the HS600 is a giant, unadjustable plastic ring that only makes contact with your head through a cheap piece of foam glued to the top. Literally, there are 3 inches of air between the side of your head and the plastic.

I've never seen a pair of headphones that could make anybody look like an absolute idiot, so naturally avoid them like the plague if you have a webcam. It's no wonder the product shot is form the side, if it was head-on, you'd have some idea of how stupid it looks.

Also, I've been wearing it 10 minutes and my ears are already starting to irritate. I gave it 2 stars because there doesn't seem to be a problem with the recording or sound quality; if only it had been designed to be worn by a human head, perhaps there'd be no problem.



3 out of 5 stars Nice but didnt last long   December 25, 2007
Benjamin T. Cheshire (England)
Well there a nice pair of headphones, Really comfortable , good sound quality, good mic quality, the big thing thats at fault with them is they dont last very long. ive had 2 pairs of these and they both broke at about 4months of use. My last pair i picked up and the ear fell off ^^ . Maybe it was just my luck, otherwise there a nice pair of headphones.
But if you want better quality spend a little more.



2 out of 5 stars Free Skypeout minutes   December 9, 2007

Good headset but don't be swayed with the free skype out minutes, you have to jump through hoops to get them, it's not just a case of typing in the voucher code, you have to contact the customer service department who then require a scanned copy of the voucher, the website you are trying to redeem them on and then a screenshot of the amazon order, I've been through 3 frustrating emails so far and I'm still not there yet!


4 out of 5 stars Very solid product   June 21, 2007

Bought a pair of these because I needed a microphone built in, and they're a solid headset. Great microphone, great sound.

They're also pretty comfortable for a couple of hours - I find that after about the second hour I start to notice them pressing onto my ears a bit, and I would prefer it if the size adjustment was a bit more effective. If you have a big head, you might find them a bit tight.

If you're looking for something with amazing sound quality and need to wear it for several hours at a time, I'd recommend the Creative HQ-1300s instead - they don't have a mic, but you can get a desktop one, and the comfort of that set is unparalleled.

If you need a built-in mic and only use them for an hour or two at a time, this is an excellent alternative.
