Blackwire 3225 Wired Headset (Plantronics) - Noise-Canceling Mic – Stereo Design - Connect to PC/Mac/Mobile via USB-C, USB-A, or 3.5mm - Works w/Teams, Zoom - Amazon Exclusive

Should have gone with Plantronic to start. Burned through 3 cheap Chinese sets here that promised the world and failed to deliver. This headset is great with two reservations. Sound quality is crisp and clear. It is balanced and the tones rich. The ear cups are comfy but the are open, so you will hear the noise around you. They became comfortable for longer term wear when I bent the headband stays to put less pressure on the ears. The noise cancellation is TOP TIER. My teams tells me they cannot here anything of my shop background, and I love that. I added a wind sock to the mic to keep people hearing me breath. Well worth the little bit extra I paid.

I've tried make other brands and models. If you don't want to deal with the unreliability or cost of Bluetooth (especially cheap by headsets) AND want a very lightweight, comfortable headset AND want frankly surprising noise cancellation from the mic* AND didn't want to spend a lot AND want sound good enough to listen to music, then this is the best balance of the aforementioned characteristics that I've found. Poly (formerly Plantronics) is one of the top three brands that specialize in headsets for communication and it shows. Quality feeling materials, ear pads don't degrade. This is the second set I've bought (first broke due to my fault). Like that I can use with USB or 3.5mm Jack. Like that cord doesn't tangle. * Other side can't hear my dog barking etc

Very good product. Easy to use and you can hear clearly. Comfortable on the ears.

I bought 2 of these myself, the 2nd one to replace the 1st one which stopped working. When the 2nd one also failed, I got a 3rd one under warranty. That one was the fastest to fail, with sound only on 1 side after a few months. I thought it was time to write a review. When they work, they're comfortable to keep on for hours. No issues with sound or being heard. I am on calls with customers A LOT. I am a gentle user -- no abuse of the product here. So in terms of the durability: enough is enough!

Headphones work great so far! Thank you for expedited delivery!

Received my unit. It was clean and new. I downloaded the Poly app for my laptop and upon connecting the headset, it advised me of a firmware update. The update process took about three minutes. I've been using it regularly ever since with my Dell work laptop. Seems to work quite well and have had zero issues. The headphone covers are very comfortable. They're perhaps a bit small but it doesn't bother me. The headset fits well even for my large head. I haven't tested the noise cancelling but have had zero negative comments about my voice quality. The volume control unit does kind of get in the way but it's manageable. For the money, I think it's an excellent value. FWIW, I have no trouble using the headphones for listening to music. Music reproduction is excellent.

Work great for my job

This model was originally made by Plantronics. Plantronics originally was a very innovative and leading-edge company. Since then, they have gone through 2 owners at least and the name has changed each time. I have gotten them from all 3 names. They have maintained their quality. This particular model was Plantronics flagship. It is still one the best combinations of price, technology, and other features available. I just wish they would leave the name alone.
