Is it truly a VOIP headset... I bough one and it doesn't say VOIP on the package. I tried using it in an online class and the earphones are great but the mic didn't work. The device manager in Windows 7 does not detect the headset. Is it truly a VOIP headset... I bough one and it doesn't say VOIP on the package.

It's VOIP as far as I can tell. I use mine with Skype without any problems. I don't know how online classes work, but maybe there's a way to modify the mic settings in the class' software. Or maybe it's just not compatible with whatever software the class uses.

From the picture, I did not buy the same headset you bought lately. I have however used it in the past and it has been very good and reliable. I turned it over to my granddaughter recently when I bought a cordless headset (it is amazing!!!). Within one day, my granddaughter (age 15) broke the Logitec headset <shrug> Teenagers!

I have Windows 7 and had no problem with this headset. I just plugged it into the computer and it worked beautifully. I needed to do nothing else.

I could hear my voice through the headset, when I downloaded mumble speak, to be able to talk online while gameing, so I assume u should be able too if you are telling the computer you are on a headset with mike :) when I had to set mumble up, it had me do a voice thingy, and I could hear myself, so.. that's all I know :)

I've had trouble using this headset on my Windows 7 PC. Windows can't find a driver. Customer support at Samsung couldn't help when I contacted them on a chat session.

After searching for this headset (and I found it), and I read about it.. I think it can connect to the Medialink USB Adapter. I got an old Bluetooth headset myself and it works. Just that I found out that sometimes when I use my cell phone with my headset, and then I turn on the adaptor again, most of the time the adaptor on my computer won't detect, until I either A: Uninstall it and then re-install the drivers and have it detect it and then try again. Or B, turn off the adaptor and on again and then turn on the headset and a lot of times that works. That is just my headset. I hope that helps.

Have you tried going to the Iogear website and downloading the latest Win 7 drivers for your bluetooth receiver? After a bit of research, someone got their Iogear BT receiver to work with their headphones in Win 7 by manually pairing the headphones, then right-clicking on the speaker/headphone icon in the system tray. Then they chose the headphones as the playback default. Not sure if either will work, but maybe worth a try?

FYI - This headset doesn't work with Rosetta Stone, it has something to do with the type of connection, I don't remember exactly what the problem was called. It turns out that the cheapo earbuds and connection I got with the Rosetta Stone package is working just fine for recording my own voice (using the microphone built into my computer, which isn't anything special). I would call the online course people to ask them your podcast questions

I've read the other comment sent to me. To answer: I have windows 7 and have absolutely no problems. I can even use my own headset but the one they send it actually really nice. They do have trial versions of Rosetta stone and coupons to make it all cheaper. As long as you buy it from a certified and legitimate retailer I don't think you'll have any problems like I did. I still have it and use it about three times a week to keep my Chinese fresh.

Hello Mike some time ago there were an app in the play store, but I can't find it anymore, but anyway this headset works with any Android Device and most of the futeres are usefull, not sure but I think even the text voice messages can be cofigured without any app necesity. I also use it with my PS3 and I have no complains for it.

So. I got one. Arrived last night. Was able to raid with it for one night and it worked flawlessly. One of the most comfortable headsets I've ever owned. Then the USB dongle quit out on me. I pop the USB dongle in and it keeps popping up "USB Device Not Recognized". Windows isn't recognizing the transmitter anymore, so now I've got a really comfy pair of really expensive earmuffs. That light up.

Jerome, I've not tested the headset for any other use case beyond plugging it in my USB port. Interesting question, and sorry I don't have a good answer, but if you get one, would love to hear what it is. Good luck.

This headset does work with windows 8. It is a great headset for the money, I use it almost daily for 6 to 8 hours and I have not found another usb headset that is so comfortable to wear for this long of a time frame. I work from home on my pc and I have 5 other headsets I thought were great until I bought this one, buy it and you won't go wrong. I hope this helps anyone with this item. If anyone can tell me where I can get a cord to convert this usb headset to an rj11 telephone jack I'd appreciate it very much as I also have times when I have to be on a land line phone and the headset it has is unbearable yet I have not been able to find anything to do this with.

Works great with windows 7...I used them with my laptop, but now only use them as wireless speakers with my smartphone or tablet. The actual dongle that transmits the signal isnt that strong, but I dont use that. Just pair them with a device and thats it, and they sound great.

Every Bluetooth headset and/or speaker I have tried to sync with has worked great. With my laptop, there was one time I had to turn off the speaker driver and make the headset the "primary" speaker. Otherwise, it works great and can't beat the price. Hope that helps and enjoy.

I'm not sure if this headset is compatible with the VoIP phone systems. We use these headsets with our Toshiba DKT2020-SD phones. We share a pipeline with phone and internet services. We will soon be looking into a VoIP system so this is a very good question.

You will hear the game through the headsets and the left side of the headsets is your mic! So you can game & chat at the same time. When you receive the box there will NO MIC it's in the headset. Sounds crazy but it does work.Good luck gaming!!

Plug and play on my computer audio jack, work perfectly, im a computer tecnitian back here at honduras central america. If they work just fine on other device it could be, the drivers for ur audio on your computer are missing (no audio what so ever generaly on ur pc) go to start,left click on my pc, click adminiser, click on the left side option on the bar named devices, if yoy se something yellow you have drivers missing. In other case it could be ur audio card. If the headsets dont work on other devices apart from ur pc (a celphone, mp3 playe even a ps4 control) the headsets are not working
