What customers say about "Features"
Creative Sound Blaster Blaze Gaming Headset with Detachable Noise-Cancelling Mic
  • Physical switch for mic mute is a great feature when I want to concentrate on gameplay.
  • Long nearly 9 foot long cord which I personally love about this headset.
  • The in-line mic and volume control works well and is very convenient.
  • The only thing I wish is that the earcups could swivel or rotate.
  • I hate this cord. Very rubbery, springy and thin.it has and will always have the kinks from where it was rolled up and bread tied.
Creative HS-1000 Fatal1ty USB Gaming Headset
  • I love the detachable mic and USB features.
  • I am more than pleased with the purchase. It is pretty much plug & play.
  • Also the mic detaches very easily from the headset so they make good headphones to watch movies or other videos on your computer.
  • The this is very, very durable. It feels quite solid, and none of the parts feel loose.
  • I love that the mic is detachable but if it's not secured, it can fall off the headset and then you've lost half your functionality.
