works for cellphones, computers etc? microphone for skype?

I don't know about with cellphones, but it works with my computer fine. However, when I try to Skype while wearing them, the sound gets diverted and starts coming through my computer's speakers again, thus making private conversations public. I have no idea why, but that is literally my only complaint for these headphones. Also, there is no microphone on these headphones.

Yes; however, several of us have tried using this to connect our PCs to use Skype and they have all eventually stopped working. It seems to burn out. We are now using a splitter that works much better! If you are interested the item is Startech audio cables 3.5 mm 4 pin to 2x3 pin 3.5 headset splitter adapter - f/m. Hope this helps!

Yes. A tiny one comes with it also for laptops and it's the most amazing microphone I've owned. Use for Skype everyday.

The Skype Adapter is for PC use. Most of them have two 3,5 mm klinke ports, one for audio, one for microphone.The Y-adapter split the signals from one headphone cable to this two ports.

This sound card connects to laptop with USB. You can also use your headphones. I never tried microphone. But It should be compatible.

I have not used mine for Skyping, so I am not familiar with that. I did use it to record for an email, and the volume was okay. This was using the built in mic. I'm sorry I can't help you any further than that. Have you tried a microphone plugged into the jack?

It has a regular headphone jack that fits my IPod, Nook, IPhone, and PC. The microphone works with my IPhone, but, it doesn't have a separate mike jack, so I don't know about about skyping. Sorry.

Should work if you use the Microphone jack on computer rather than USB port. But because your mic jack on computer is not balanced, you would need an XLR to 1/8 adapter, making sure to use pins 1 and 2 and ignoring pin 3 on XLR. These adapters are available here.

I can tell you from experience that if you have an interface, you can use this mic on Skype and messenger-like programs. I was quite surprised when I found out you could do that. But that's the same with any mic really.

it has a build-in microphone. we use it when skype with friends. the bad thing is my computer does not automatically pickup the microphone; have to manually select it every time.

It's a standard USB audio device, it works for pretty much everything. I use this on a Mac for Skype, Facetime, GoToMeeting, and Join.me meetings. On a Mac, don't bother installing the software that comes with it. The device seems to perform better with the built-in Mac OS support.

Yes, it can be used for music, calls, has a built in mic, you can also use for Skype, etc.

Most laptops that have microphone and headphone sockets have them as separate connectors. This headset is made for mobile phones which uses one connector that combines headphone and microphone. I cannot find the right adapter at radio shack, but a quick search on ebay for "Smartphone Headset to PC Adapter" turned up many adapters. I cannot tell you for certain that they will work for you, but if I had to do this, that is where I would start.

I don't know--the quality wasn't very good so I returned it. I suppose I should have written a review. I had bought three different mikes, and the one we liked the best was the MXL AC404 USB Conference Microphone. It's not being used on a PC, though--it is plugging into a Cisco desk phone.

Yes indeed. Not the best quality though, but it does work well withing the latest versions of Skype. Good luck.

The first answer is correct....it will work for a microphone and speakers. Provided your speakers have the 3.5mm plug (regular computer speaker plug).
