Review on Sennheiser SC 135 USB-C (508355): Premium Monaural Headset for Business Professionals, HD Stereo Sound & Noise-Canceling Mic, USB-C Connector (Black) by Chris Floyd

Revainrating 5 out of 5

For office work, one ear works better than two

This is my second single-ear microphone and headset. (The other was a Sennheiser, but more expensive, which I bought about 18 months ago, just before all these things sold out, even on Amazon.) I find single-ear headphones more useful than two-ear headphones, and they look better on the screen (at least for me). They allow you to have a short conversation when you zoom in but mute the mic without removing the headphones. I also like the fact that my family and nearby office mates can only hear half of the conversation (or nothing when I'm not speaking), reducing their distraction and increasing my privacy compared to regular speakers. Sennheiser makes very good stereo headsets, so I wasn't surprised that the voice was crystal clear through the one-ear devices and the mics were very good even on these handy devices. The newer ones (the ones I'm writing about) have a USB-C connector and the traditional one and seem to work the same as the older, more expensive set with an "old fashioned" normal plug. I needed two so I could leave one in the office and the other at home - yes I now zoom to both locations and both sets work very well.

Pros
  • Travel-friendly: Innovative fold-down earcup design makes portability and storage easy
Cons
