Like the title says.

Pros
Better than the stock headset.
It feels of better quality and looks alright to.
The sound quality is a fair bit better for both me and my friends.

Cons
The downside is that at max volume you can hear static,
this can be solved by just turning the volume down a quarter turn, suprisingly this does not make my friends voice's quieter it just gets rid of the static :s
The volume wheel and mute switch are a quite small, it would be nicer if they were more prominent.
This headset was not designed for big heads as i have a medium sized head (if that helps you at all)
and it fits when 2 clicks from max reach, at about 75% reach.
Whereas the original abox live headset only needed to be at about 20% reach.
Unfortuneatly the headset had developped a little buzz when someone talks at a certain frequency,
i solved that by flicking the earpiece (gently) If that comes back worse then i will have to send off for a replacement.

All that being said i am not unhappy with this headset as it "IS" better than the original one.
I tried a few different headsets (wireless, on both ears and over both ears) before i got this one.
In my oppinion (for whatever that is worth) this is the best bang for buck i could find.
As long as you dont have a particularly large head (not to sound condescending) i would recommend this headset above others.

must be worth it as my eight year old grandson has not managed to break them yet as he done with some more expesive ones

My son loves this headset (phew!) and it looks like it will last a lot longere than his previous one.

-Very comfortable, far more comfortable than the original.
-Amazing microphone quality
-Clear sound quality
-Looks sleek
-Feels stronger than the original *less likely to snap*
