Decided to go with this, as i didn't really like the in ear mic that the PS4 comes with, and only wanted something for party chat.Originally bought the Turtle Beach P4C's and found the chat volume to quiet, so for £8 i decided to give these a try, and if they didn't turn out to be any good then its only £8.Volume output (Chat Volume) was on par with the bundled PS4 in ear mic, personally would like it slightly louder, but it does the job fine.Build quality is not to bad, wasn't expecting much for £8 and only time will tell if they will last, but I'm sure you will get plenty of use out of them.Overall,

I bought this headset just so that I had something over my ear rather than in it and for that purpose alone it serves well.After a little testing I can confidently say that audio quality, both in and out, is equal to the official ear-bud with the caveat that this headset produces a little higher volume both ways than the ear-bud. This for me is a positive.The only major difference here (other than being over-ear instead of in-ear) is the in-line controls for chat volume and mic-mute, both of which work fine and come in handy.If you're looking for something 'better' than the bundled PS4 ear-piece, this is not it,

In terms of quality you can get much better headsets than this, but for less than a tenner you'll be hard pressed to find one better. It's an excellent alternative to the rubbish ear piece you get with the PS4. First time I put it on I thought it was quite uncomfortable but after a few adjustments it was very wearable, wouldnt like to wear it for hours but for a little game session it's ideal. If you're wanting an alternative to the supplied mic for as cheap as possible I recommend, if you can afford something more elaborate then keep looking

1st one I bought couldn't be heard and I left this review as a 1 star review but the seller of the headset contacted me and was very professional and replaced the headset once I was able to tell them the batch number of the headset I received. The replacement headset works very well and is plenty loud when using with the PS4 even in a noisy room. I tested the microphone too and the people listening can hear things being said in the background so its working very well. Great price for this headset plus great service from the seller.

I bought this product knowing that it wouldn't be the best quality out there. I just wanted something over-ear as I do not get on with the earpiece that comes with the PS4!It does exactly what its designed to do. The quality is actually quite reasonable, its comfortable enough during long chat sessions and I can hear/be heard clearly using it.If you're on chat parties all the time this isn't for you, but if like me you are only going to be using it occasionally, its perfect (especially for the price!)

This was just what I wanted. I realise bluetooth wireless things are nice, but this has no batteries, needs no charging, and the sound quality is totally fine. The main reason I got it was that kids have trouble with earbuds. They often don't fit child-sized ears. This goes over the ear, so it works with all the kids' ears just fine. I only have one of these at the moment. But if I ever need more than one, I'll probably buy another of these. The fancy bluetooth stuff isn't worth the money for me.

Very good! Cheap, clear to hear and easy to use. Comfortable and stylish. Light yet sturdy. Long cable from headset to Jack. Bonus with mute switch and volume control. Plug in and play! Universal 3.5mm Jack so you could use it for over devices/smartphones! (untested) Super fast delivery. Decent packaging. The only con I have that it is sometimes too sensitive! All in all a must buy!

If your just after a basic headset for voice chat, then this definitely worth your consideration. I bought i slightly more expensive Turtle Beach basic headset like this(The P4C), and surprisingly found the volume level no better on the Turtle Beach, and if anything, this one a bit more comfortable, as its not as weighty on one side like the Turtle Beach one was.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. These should come mandatory with every PS4. Only con is that the side that doesn't have the ear piece on stick in your head a bit but come on, lets face it, it's not gonna get that much use because who plays Playstation to socialise with friends? If you wanna play online multiplayer then get an Xbox.

Ordered this as my original PS4 headset was crackling.It reminds me of the headset that shipped with the Xbox 360, I quite liked that design.Anyway, very simple headset, only thing that is bad is that it got quite uncomfortable after a long gaming session.But who can complain, very good value for money.

Brought this to replace my original ear phone that came with my ps4 and didn't want to spend too much money. It's comfortable to wear and the cable is a good length. I only use it to listen to games for sound only so I can't comment on the chat. Really fast delivery too and we'll packaged.

This is a great budget headset for the ps4. Volume control and mute functions, is a little tight at times but not really an issue. The quality is decent and sound is as clear as you'll find for the price.Update: less than a year later and doesnt seem to work anymore!

i got these because i had a turtle beech headset that was a bit over sized but also people couldn't hear me talk. i have lost the ones that come with the ps4 so thought i would give these a go and they are fantastic. does everything i need. well worth the money.

I bought this for a MacBook Pro.The cable is not long (50cms?). After 10 weeks use, repeated yanks have caused mine to start to break where it joins the earpiece. Using a coiled extender cable would probably guard against this happening.

Great price but you get what you pay for.It’s works well but only 1 ear but like I said you get what you pay for.The quality is good for the price you pay but I have had better.It’s a great headset for emergency use only.
