My headset of 3 years broke, and before that I had another model, but now that model is discontinued and I dislike the new version. I've gone to multiple stores and have even brought home a couple headsets that were either garbage, or made me sound like I was talking through a cheap walkie-talkie, even if they're the same price if not more expensive than the old ones.

Why don't use just get some decent BT Headphones (like BEATS/BOSE/AKG) and use the in ear Microphone functions?

I got Bluetooth headphones and a desk mic because of this.

"gamer" headsets all suck

get a nice pair of Sennheiser that also happen to have a mic, or get a modmic.

Beats are a joke and BOSE? More like Buy Other Sound Equipment. Go sennheiser and buy a stand alone mic

I've had the Corsair HS50 Stereo Gaming Headset for a year and its still going great. detachable mic, sounds good. I use it on the laptop when I'm streaming, and on the PS4 if I'm playing Overwatch. It's about $40 or 50 quid.

I was talking about the HS60 when I said it makes me sound like I'm talking through a cheap walkie-talkie. I don't know if the 50 is much different. Otherwise it would be great.

I actually made a order for some Bluetooth earbuds today. Not for this reason though. Still it's nice to have the option of using them as a mic.

Beats are actually decent for just causal listening/gaming...not for serious audiophile stuff (like mixing music, etc). For that then yea, you might wanna get Sennheiser, B&O or AKG (my preference)

IT's just that they are too expensive (in some cases) for what they are...you're pretty much paying a premium based on name/brand.
