Haha. Honestly, I bought this and gave them to my daughter. They really aren't bad for the sound. Not a shill post, but for 10 bucks or so, it's not bad.

If you go on youtube and check a review of the headset, the mic is on this surprisingly good. I bought it simply for that for those long work calls I think it should be absolutely fine. It's only $10 I can't imagine you can get much better value without someone just giving you one for free IMO thanks OP

i got this when they were $12 after coupons. The bass sound good and clean on these, but the high-mids and and highs are muddled. I wanted to like them, but after further testing, the drivers are unbalanced. I kept getting an echo sound like I was in a hallway. I may have gotten a defective pair, but these are on return.

seldom gamer to release stress and the online people say they have trouble hearing me with the built-in lappy mic so I picked these up and for ten bucks they are decent sounding/better than lappy and although I want to say that USB 7.1 contraption is a gimmick when you press the on button it just makes things over loud and blurry so I ditched the contraption and connected to headset directly to the laptop via 3.5 and the online people can hear me better now so well worth the ten bucks and contraption when in the trash

I also got this for my daughter and she said it was better than her Logitech. One thing about this headphone is if you have a normal size adult head it will be tight. Looks to be mostly for kids.

I bought these at $13 for a backup pair and my kid broke his old ones tonight. I busted these out and the pads are soft af. I went ahead and ordered 2 more sets at $10 (two separate orders)

I paid the $13. They work fine for my Zoom meetings. Not very good at canceling the microphone noise.
One person talking normally, 20 feet away on the other side of a 4 foot plexiglass barrier was heard by others in my zoom meeting. They rated the volume as "4", "4" and "5"

I'm not a fan of the nylon-woven cord. It's rough and scratchy. I hear a crunching sound when I move my head but no one else seems to hear it. I'm trying to figure what to do..replace the cord? Wrap it in silk? Duct tape it to my neck?

I bent the metal head strap to loosen it up. A little upward kink, but it's not a piece of art.

Me< 3ft> plexiglass <17ft> person speaking. Not noise-cancelling at all.

This has been my go-to headset the past month. It's not perfect. It fits funny. But the mic and sound are surprisingly good. When you factor in the 7.1 adapter this is a great deal.
