Customer Reviews  The headset wire together with the remote wire is WAY TOO LONG!!!! I purchase this produce for Resistance Retribution and Skype VOIP for my PSP-2000. Call quality over Skype is NO DELAY, loud and clear!
The headset itself has a microphone sticking out that can be adjusted to different directions. The ear clip style does not isolate environmental noise. It's a typical behind the neck design for you to hang your headphones on your neck when not in use. The connection uses a standard 3 pin 3.5 mm stereo headphone with mic, which is the same as the iPhone's wired headset or other mobile phones, so this can be used not only on PSP but mobile phones.
The worse part is the length of the headset combining with the remote. The remote no doubt is stylish but also considered as bulky. Since the remote is designed to be used with shorter headphone cords, Sony simply did nothing and put two products together as a rush release for Skype bundle. If Sony followed what Apple did to their iPhone wired headset with small remote and their favorite behind the neck style, the headset should be perfect for both gaming and cell phones.
If you have a PSP, and want to use skype and voice chat for games, this is the best you can get. I got it for only from a clearance.
 Frustrating Design I picked this headset up so that I could participate in voice chat in Resistance: Retribution multi-player mode. I can't comment on the voice quality yet but I can tell you that I barely even feel like trying it anymore due to the terrible design of this headset.
First, the remote part of the headset feels like it should be facing the other way, that is, if you're standing or sitting and you grab the remote it will wind up facing upside-down in your hand. It also is kind of tricky to grab onto because of the orientation of the remote and the position in which it plugs into the PSP itself; feels like it will slip away from your hand when you go to grab it. The headphones part is by far the worst, however. You clip on the left ear and then a cord attaches to the right earpiece that you have to wrap around the back of your head. Before you know it you are covered in wires. The cord is way too long for regular casual use and the application of the earpieces are even somewhat unintuitive. If I would have known the trouble I was getting into before I bought this headset I would have saved myself the grief and just dealt without using voice chat in the game.
I will be looking for something much easier to use in the meanwhile, hopefully there is something out there for me.
 Almost. The chord is too long. It's just too long! It's annoying. The quality is very good and they're very very very durable .
 PSP headset kit for skype Very useful to my psp when I'm using skype to skype call. When you buy be careful because there is lot of fake sold out in the market. To be sure order to amazon or to sony.
 Nice remote Nice remote that works with the PSP 3001.
Head Phones are too uncomfortable and tangle
up very easily
