Cheap headset

Go to solution Solved by OddballMV,

Hi guys

I'm looking for a cheap headset for my mate as a present because his current laptop microphone deems his voice inaudible over Skype. It needs to be under £20 ideally and the audio it produces must be audible.

Many thanks

Tom

 

This should be fairly decent - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Plantronics-86050-05-Gamecom-Gaming-Headset/dp/B0079G2Y2A/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1375138455&sr=8-4&keywords=headset

 

 

There is nothing good at under £20 

 

Maybe have a look around before you make bold claims?

If all you need is a microphone, then the Zalman clip-on mics are excellent.

Logitech makes some 'ok' headsets in that price range, at least you know you're getting somewhat of a quality product. Not sure where you're ordering from but you should be fine if you just get the most expensive logitech headset you're willing to buy.
