The problem with listening to anything on the computer with headphones is that you have to keep yanking them out to use the PC Speakers.

That was until the Sandberg USB Headset arrived on the scene because it allows you to do both.

I’ll be honest and admit I never thought this was a real issue but after I played about with a set over the weekend I’ve changed my mind.

The Sandberg USB Headset is a true timesaver.

No longer was I having to plug and unplug cables between Skype calls to listen to my music on the speakers.

The Sandberg USB Headset allowed me to have programs set up to work via one or the other - all possible because the Sandberg USB ChatSet installs in Windows as a separate sound card when the USB connector is inserted.

So would I recommend you buy one?

If you rarely have the sound on when you use your computer and never use things such as Skype then the Sandberg USB Headset isn’t going to be for you.

If however you’re always using VOIP services, playing games and listening to music then the answer is a definitely yes.

In fact once you’ve got it you’ll wonder how you did without!

The Sandberg USB headset retails for £19.99 at Sandberg or £13.11 at Amazon
