Therefore I bought the HW399M as convenient alternative to extended wear. Unfortunately, could not convince the device:
Positives:
+ Processing makes a high quality impression
+ Connecting via USB to Win 8.1 computer problems. Is automatically detected, the device itself by pairing leads.
+ Sound quality playback is good (albeit stereo, and not as in the issues alleged "5.1"; not relevant to my decision)
+ You can turn up the volume quite far. Hear loud music is therefore quite possible.
+ Sits comfortable than "on-ear headsets." Comfortable secure grip.
+ Optics is nice.
Negatives:
- The recording quality of the microphone is beneath contempt. The voice is picked up strongly distorted. Unable to fix that somehow. Multiple pairing and test in another USB port have achieved nothing.
- The volume control should be carried out separately for chat and game. However, only works the "master volume". The second will have no effect.
Conclusion:
As headset comfortable and okay for the price. Not to use a headset for Skype and online games, the real reason to buy. It was to be realized with Skype no reasonable recording quality. The seller I could not contact the absence button. I am sending herewith for the first time back an order because I can not use the headset as such. Unpacking the pity of the first impression, and connect was "high-quality, simple and good." Until the micro used came.
With good micro 4 - 5 stars. As subjective as 1 star because the rest is right to expect a star.
