Logitech ClearChat Wireless Headset is All About VoIP

Logitech has made numerous digital headsets, whether it be USB or Bluetooth. The latter is naturally the logical choice for this kind of application, but Bluetooth's device pairing process oftentimes is more of a hassle for the uninitiated who most likely would refund the headsets if they don't work out of the box. For the sake of simplicity, Logitech's new $99 ClearChat PC Wireless headset relies on USB, but cuts the cord with the company's proprietary 2.4Ghz wireless protocol. The so-called 'wireless USB' headset would still be recognized by Mac and PC as a USB audio device.

The maximum distance you can get away from your PC is about 33 ft. (or 10m) which is more than enough for anyone to roam freely around a bedroom or home office. The headset itself has plush headband and ear pads for 'exceptional comfort' during long VoIP sessions, and volume controls and mute button is on the can as well (since there's no cable for in-line control). Mute can also be activated automatically by rotating the mic boom. Last but not least is the AC charger which means there could be an integrated battery inside the headset.
