The headset also provides a great listening experience when playing games, listening to podcasts, and more.
Additionally, the cushioned earpieces of the .Audio 355 block ambient noise for fewer distractions, so you can easily focus on your Internet calls or gaming. The lightweight, adjustable headband and pillow-soft, swivel-mounted ear cushions deliver all-day comfort.

The audio quality is okay at best and the microphone quality isn't near the quality of other headsets that I've owned. Yes, this is a cheap headset. It still doesn't excuse the poor quality of these two aspects.
The only saving grace is that it worked, and worked pretty well... for three months. At which point, the cord came loose and I had to superglue the cord to the left ear piece in order to get it to work while I waited for my (far superior) headset to arrive. If you're in desperate need of a $15 headset, there are far better ones out there. Save your head from this pain and get something else.
Are you going to get studio quality sound out of these? Of course not - they're meant to be a basic headset/microphone for use with a computer, with an emphasis towards voice quality since the microphone boon implies that these will be used with products like Skype, TeamSpeak, Ventrilo and the like.
I think these deliver excellent sound for the price, both incoming through the headphones and outgoing through the mic. Those I chat with say my speech is clear and ungarbled, easy to hear without constant changes in volume. I'm able to hear voices, or music, quite nicely through these.
I also will mention - I have very small ears, and finding earbuds or headphones that I can wear comfortably is a HUGE issue for me. These are the only headphones I've found that I can actually wear for several hours without trouble. My husband, who has more normal sized ears, says they are very comfortable for him as well.
I really like the boom mic on this headset, too - I like that I can position it as needed, and easily move it out of my way when it's not needed. I've had a few headsets where it felt like the mic boom was somehow "pulling" the headset forward with its weight - something I never understood, I mean, just how heavy does a mic really need to be?? These don't give that sensation at all... they feel very balanced.
These do have a fairly tight fit on the head. It's easy enough to stretch them out a bit simply by putting them over the arm of a sofa (or something similar) overnight. As long as you wear them somewhat regularly after that, they'll maintain the stretched sizing. If unused, they will go back to being nearly as tight as they were at time of purchase... that might actually be a bonus to some buyers. It's of course a simple matter to stretch them again if needed.
So yes, we like these so much we own five sets. We use them with all of our computers/laptops, and it gives us spares for when a set eventually gives out.
We consider these to be an excellent product for the price. We're definitely getting good value out of them.
I'll admit; I did end up returning these because I already had a few much more expensive gaming headsets that I thought wouldn't work with my phone as I went to working from home. In fact, it was this headset that was difficult to find the right adapters for. It wasn't until I actually used it at work did I realize it didn't bring the microphone through with the same adapter that DID work with my Logitech gaming headset.
Also, putting these on for a minute or two to see how they feel is one thing, but wearing them for more than 20 minutes was quite uncomfortable. If you need a good, cheap, quick headset for your computer that you'll use sparingly at best, look no further. Other than that, I wouldn't recommend this headset.

The volume control does not go to zero, it drops to about %25. The Mute switch is pretty flimsy, there is no satisfying snap to tell if you are truly on mute or not. And the ear piece is a little tight on the ears. Not as comfortable as the steel series. After an hour of gaming my ears can get a bit sore.
Otherwise, great sound for the price and appears well built.
Headphones are well placed but not perfectly comfortable.
Mic is excellent and voice transmission very good.
Sound quality is not the best, just okay types.
I can use this for long duration (2-3 hours) without getting my ears baked.
I might buy this again if stolen :)
It got delivered by Amazon shipping, and it was fast!
