Binatone TALK-5193 Wireless Headset for PC

owned for 30 days,For the money they are great. I get about 35 foot range line of site, no walls, after I put the dongle on a usb extension cord up at 5 foot on the wall.It has no interference from my microwave oven standing in front of it.Good sound and microphone has received complements from freinds.I use it for Skype and Google Phone and works well at that.I plugged in the dongle then turned on the headset and they connected on there own and set up Skype with out me doing anything.Now for the bad: the plastic on the headband is substandard and crumbles easy. I pushed mine back together best I could and used black electrical tape and wrapped from one end to the other four times and don't look bad and feel solid. I would recommend you do the taping before it starts crumbling.Maybe out of the box.I have had other high dollar brands of wireless headsets and they do not do anything these won't do and I feel the software is better with these.I am using them on a desktop with Windows 10 .

Ok, so this review is based on the first 48 hours of owning it. I was worried that it would fall apart because it was a cheap product, and while it is not exactly a sturdy device...making it from lightweight plastic makes sense. the thing is already heavy because of the speakers and battery packs, so I get their design. It is sturdy enough as long as you aren't throwing it around.plug in the headset, let it charge for 3 hours, then just plug in the little usb dongle and hit the connect button. good to go. it comes with a micro-usb charger. sound quality is ok. the ear pierces are a soft leather with holes in it, there is foam padding sewn inside. I have not attempted to use the speaker.the only downside so far is that switching between using the headset and my pc speakers has been clumsy. it seems like I can only send the audio to one device at a time...I can't have sound playing from both. this is probably just a technical problem on my end.for $15, this is a great product. I sit at a PC all day and find myself annoyed with the cords of a set of ear buds that I had to plug into my pc. its nice to be wireless, to be able to walk around the office and listen to my music without having to take on and off my earphones.for those of you looking for a cheap option for improving listening to music/radio on your pc, this is a clunky albeit effective tool. it is kinda big and heavy compared to earbuds...but wireless kicks ass.

I've had these for a year now, and I can say with 100% certainty that I'm very happy with them. I'm a bit of an audiophile (meaning I'm quite picky when it comes to audio quality)...and I've been very impressed with these headphones. I use them mostly to listen to tv and movies at night while my roommate's asleep, and they do the job better than any other wireless headset that I've used over the years...including the expensive, name-brand ones'. My apartment is very small, so I haven't tested the range much. They remain crystal clear when I go out on the porch, or to the bathroom or kitchen...but I've never gone more than 15ft. away or so. I also use them for Skype, and they're excellent for that purpose as well. The microphone is GREAT for Skype or basic voice recording. Some people here have claimed that the fit is "tight"...for me, it's perfect. They're comfortable and adjust easily. The padding is just fine. FAR more comfortable than most over-ear headsets I've used. They seem to stay charged for quite a long time, too. Others have also stated that the plastic is cheap, and they break or fall apart easily. Not in my experience. Mine are lightly used, and are hung on a hook on my wall when not in use...so I think if you aren't too hard on them, they'll hold-up just fine. I don't use them every day...I bought them for simply occasional Skyping and such...but again, I DO use them for tv and movies, and sometimes music...and they work GREAT for all of those things. 1-year later, and they look and sound as great as they did on day 1. Given this price...you CAN'T go wrong buying these! You WILL NOT find a deal like this with any wireless headsets that even come CLOSE to this quality...trust me on that...I've tried SEVERAL others. Nothing compares. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I've had a pair of these for 1 year and 4 months, now, and have used them practically every day. I listen to audio with them while washing the dishes with a good 35 feet and a wall and between me and the computer and the sound is perfectly clear even after all this time. I also use them during nigh daily voice calls, many of which can last for several consecutive hours. They also work well for recording audio into my computer.In the past few months, they have begun to deteriorate structurally but I attribute this more to heavy usage than any fault of their own. They're now mostly held together with duct tape, but the sound, range, and battery life has so far not suffered to any noticeable degree. Not a bad run for a $20 wireless headset.Pros:Long battery lifeLong rangeGreat output sound qualityGreat input sound qualityCons:Uncomfortable to wear for too longA little bit fragile

When you talk about product quality, it might not be the MOST comfortable headset ever made, but it is definitely not uncomfortable. This is a sturdy headset that I use for work, I wear it for 6-7 hours of the day and have no complaints. Sound is good, mic is clear to my callers, and it does not get any easier to install/use initially. True plug and play, if you can read, then you will have this thing set up in 15 seconds. For the price, this is the best product for someone looking to buy something to use at work, feels like it won't break too easily. Comes with a good long charging cord, and a USB dongle that you plug into the PC or MAC to make it work. wireless is great, charges fast. I am a gamer, and if I wanted to have a gaming headset, I would probably get something more expensive, but this does the job for gaming too. Love the bonus skype card for 3 months, perfect timing for me as it is the holidays and I have family all over the country.
