Logitech: Innovation, Quality, and Seamless Digital Experiences

Finding the right headset or earset to buy can be tricky. There are many different types and models on sale. Whether you're on the lookout for a Bluetooth headset or a pair of music headphones, this guide should help.

What's the difference between a headset and a headphone?
All headsets and earsets typically come with a microphone, letting you make calls as well as listen to music and podcasts. headphones do not have a microphone built in and are more focused on music / movie listening.

Bluetooth headsets
With a Bluetooth headset, you can keep your hands free while on a call without having to awkwardly sandwich the phone between your ear and shoulder. They let you access commonly used functions - such as picking up calls or activating Siri/Google Now – directly from the headset. You can leave your phone in your pocket.

There's a variety of models designed to suit specific needs. Some have a special carry case that also keeps their battery topped up. Others are tough enough to come with a 5-year warranty. There are models that are well-suited for both making calls and listening to music. You can also find Bluetooth headsets that eliminate wind noise, making you easy to hear when you're out in stormy weather.

Wired headsets
Wired headsets connect directly to your computer via USB or 3.5mm port and let you start talking in seconds. You don't need to worry about the call dropping off or running out of battery. They come in mono (one ear) and duo (two ear) variants, depending on what you prefer. Many models are made to withstand prolonged use with durable Kevlar cords and a boom arm that can rotate 360 degrees without snapping. They're comfortable enough to wear all day and have special noise-cancelling microphones that ensure the other side only hears your voice.

Most models connect to multiple devices at the same time, letting you easily switch between making calls on your smartphone or work PC. Some are equipped with a special base and a touchscreen that lets you manage your calls. Wireless headsets are available in mono (one ear) and duo (two ears) versions.
