How well does the microphone work? I'm interested in using these for phone calls as well as listening.... Thanks for anything you can share!

It's pretty good. I think they are in the better-than-most range for the price.

It's okay. My experience is that if you hold the microphone near your mouth you can be heard even on a busy street. I've never really used it indoors.

They are not vey good to talk. Its been a long tome don't remember using them to talk. The sound quality as headphones was very good. If I remember correctly microphone was on one side and had no noise cancelling. If you are thinking of getting bluetooth headphones there are others that are less bulky. I changed my jabra for some sennheiser mm100, these are lighter and less bulky. They also have the microphone on one side and in a noisy environment people don't hear very well. But sound quality is very good.

The microphone is good. I use these for hands free driving and for the price, i would recommend that you go ahead and buy two pairs as i did.

Recording quality for me has been excellent. I use an external mic for voice work for audio-books. Haven't used the internal, built-in mics much, so I can't speak to their recording quality.

I use these for gaming and don't have a problem communicating, as far as hearing myself, depends on how loud the game is really. At around medium volume Id say yea, you can hear yourself decently well. I haven't really paid much attention to this in the past so Im kinda guessing, Ill try it out tonight with special attention to this and give you an update. And just to add, these are amazing for gaming!

Yep I do it all the time! These have a really good range so I can plug the phone in to charge attach these to it via an AUX cable and walk all over my house. It is convenient as you can adjust the volume. However i don't believe that you can use them for phone conversations, just for listening.

U cannot make or receive calls through them if that is ur question. I would only recommend them for listening to music & videos on ur phone. I need 2 warn u. These really thump, they have very deep bass. If u listen 2 jazz or classical these r not the best choice.

They will work as general computer mic & answer calls, just not from two devices at the same time. I use mine to listen to music, while talking to guildmates over Vent/Teamspeak as we raid in game and they have no issue doing that. However if you hook up a second device to them, they will only respond/control that second device and you will no longer hear anything on your pc. (I tried using them with my Note 3 & Pc at the same time, but only could talk on the Note 3). But is sounds like you're just going to use em on your pc for Skype and such, to which they should work just fine.

These microphones are pretty good in sound quality and can pretty much be use a in any occasion. I use them at church and get no feedback. And it's easier if you know somewhat how to use the sound system too. Hope this answers your question.

I hadn't tried them until today and found that they do work, however, it is very picky with how it is pushed into the phone. You can hear the other person and they can hear you only if you play with the plug in. I use these just for listening to music at work. I would not recommend them if you are looking to use them to talk on your phone, however, great sound if you are using for music. I hope this helps you!

Well, they don't have a microphone, so you couldn't use them to talk on the phone. They have the standard audio plug so if your phone has that kind of jack (3.5mm or whatever it is) you could listen to music on them. You could probably google the headphone and find out the exact size of the plug.

First time when I tested them, they worked with my Nokia. Second time, just left speaker sounded. Then, I used mi PC via cables with no problem. So, I'd like to answer a question to all dissapointed users: Could this problem to be fixed in another place?. Thank you.

yes the mics are very good! I have had mine for half a year so far, no loss in quality. but keep the small one in a memorable place.p.s it would be a good idea to SEW the ear padding down, otherwise it will come off within 2 weeks. (that is literally the only problem, if you sew it early, you will never have to worry about the padding)better than the expensive turtle beach or other brands that I've tried, that's for sure!

There is a mic and it doesn't work really well with hearing though I can say that after using it for chat on Skype, Yahoo, Gmail, and on my mobile phone... That the quality of my voice is not very good. No matter how I hold the mic up to my mouth in any angle that I can, it doesn't change the quality besides being louder when my mouth is closer. The mic is attached to the wire, it isn't attached to the headpiece itself. As for listening quality though, it is worth it and has an amazing noise-reduction.

Hi Jobin - You know, I really don't use them much, so I really can't comment. I went back and see if they work, and they do, and there doesnt seem too much background noise. Hope that helps.

Glad to help...People often see to be able to tell when I am using the headphones....when in low to med noise environments the output is great. Seemingly the headphones do not defeat exterior noise so the result is often a mixture of everything that is going on my side of the call. Functionality is awesome...as long as you're in an enviro that is not noisy you will love 'em.

One additional note...these are earphones only and don't have a mic to speak in. If you are going to listen to music only, then these will work, but if you want to speak during phone calls, get something with a mic.
