Howdy

We still have an overstock of these Surface headphones, so we've slashed the price to take advantage of the eBay discount code.

Nice little stocking stuffer.

    Buying Microsoft non PC hardware is a gamble.

      I mean that's pretty crap, but it's not like headphones need constant driver updates.

      These are also 4 years old so I wouldn't expect many software changes anway.

        I have 2 pairs of these in the household and I've had them for about 3 years and they are rock solid performers and well made. This is a steal at this price.
        Can also plug them in via 3.5mm phono jack, which is handy for audio and video editing, preferred over Bluetooth for this purpose.
        Great sound quality and fantastic noise cancelling.

          Hello, SimAus007
          Hope you can provide some feedback on this if possible.

          I have used the previous version before, which I liked. However, I had a couple of issues with it and I wanted to know if these have the same problem.
          When they're connected to 2 devices simultaneously (multi-paired), and for example, if I am on a meeting (PC) and I get a call on the other device, it mutes the meeting (both mic and sound) until I either answer the call or reject it.
          Also, if I am in a meeting/call and the battery is low, it would mute the sound to announce the low battery status. Or it would mute the sound to announce the name of the 2nd device it's connecting to etc

          Does this version do the same thing?

          • SimAus007 on 17/12/2024 - 09:48

            @RamsesII: You can remove the voice prompts interrupting, if you already have audio playing from another device/call, just need to open the 'Surface' app on your device, select Surface Headphones, go to Settings and toggle off the 'Voice Prompts'.
            This stops the Surface voice from interrupting when other audio is playing, but of course, still plays if there is silence or no active call/audio.
            Certainly works for my devices.

    Love to know why they don't include Microsoft's proprietary (and garbage) wireless interface for Xbox.

      I’d have to guess it’s because they’d rather you buy two headsets instead of one

    Based on this and the reviews online - it seems the quality of these headphones isn’t up to snuff.

    Also, slashing the price usually means it was a rip-off to begin with at its RRP. It doesn’t matter for how long the product has been in the market in the current business climate.

    I’d consider avoiding for now until quality is determined in-person via testing.

    Edit:
    Negative for pointing out a potential issue?
    Give me more of those Negs.

      they're clearing out old stock and eating the loss, happens all the time. don't read into it too much.

    The microphone is awful, from brand new people couldnt hear me/make out what i was saying even if I used the 3.5mm line that has a mic on it. Its a faulty product in terms of use as a meeting headset for calls. Great for music though.

    • SimAus007 on 17/12/2024 - 09:03

      I use mine daily for Zoom & Teams calls, no issues that I've noticed with the mic. Each to their own.

        it's an issue for people on the other side. not for you. lol

          They've never said anything, and the other 2 people I call also use Surface headphones from my office. We bought them 3 years ago, so I'm sure we would know by now if it was an issue for us.

    • usbc activist on 17/12/2024 - 09:53

      I am really curious about your comment. If I had not read your comment, I would have jumped and got the headphone. Usually windows have very poor sound devices management due to some other bloatware added to manage sound settings on the top of the OS. So, they very normally fail to switch to the microphone on the headphone when you connect one wirelessly. We don't even know about this. We assume, it is the microphone on the headphone we are using. However, thats not the case. It is still trying to use the microphone on the computer which could be very far away from you.

    If they can slash the price you can really tell how rip offs pricing are.

      It has been out for 4 years. I doubt there is any profit in this; it's purely to move stock of an old product. This happens with most/all tech.

  • lflzg on 17/12/2024 - 09:09

    Can someone please confirm if it is on ear or over ear? Should be over ear by the look of it

    Excellent price, decent mic for teams and good enough NC for flight

    Thanks! Can I claim a tax deduction from the ATO for an eBay purchase if I use it for work purposes?
