Sony Playstation Portable 98527 PSP Headset
Sony changed the plug on the PSP with the 2001 series. The original plug is thicker and has three contacts on each side of the rectangular part of the plug (3.5mm headphone jack is standard on both). The new plug is thinner and has more contacts (5 or 6.. I haven't bought a remote). I too bought a headset for skype but found that it was only for the old PSP.

I have a PSP and a few games for it which benefit from the headset, and for that purpose it works nicely. The audio is somewhat lacking on bass compared to my other slip-over headphones and the mic is a little tricky to get in place every time I put these on. Aside from those issues they work fine when playing SOCOM/etc.; I can hear everyone and everyone can hear me.

However, this headset also has an additional perk which Sony probably should have made a bit more clear: it uses a basic "4-pole" stereo plug to interface with the PSP remote, the same plug configuration used in various portable devices and, most prominently, the iPhone. The plug even fits into the annoyingly small opening on the iPhone without the need for an adapter and gives you both headphone and microphone functionality, and since the audio quality is roughly the same between this headset and the iPhone's included ear buds (a little better actually) I have started using the headset in favor of the ear buds, which hurt

Must have if you're an online gamer. Definitely MUST have if you play SOCOM ftb2...it improves your gaming experience. The headphones are okay, sound is decent enough and the microphone is easy to adjust. Just don't forget you'll need a PSP remote for the headset to work. Only con I can think of is the mess of wires that always get tangled up.

My husband is an avid SOCOM player. As most of you who play know, a mic is a must. When I purchased his PSP I noted that it didn't come with a mic and purchased this one. The only thing I didn't know is that you have to have the control piece or it won't work. He's had it for 3 months now and uses it 3 or 4 times a week, hasn't failed him yet.

JUNK! My mic doesn't work at all. The other reviewer is the only person that i've heard of that it actually works. I've read alot about other gamers casque mics not working either. Do not buy! Save your money. It also doesn't tell you, you need the psp remote that comes with the more expensive psp box. So i wasted 40 bucks on nothing!

A nice piece of work. I personally bought it at EB Games, but you could wait until you can buy it here at Amazon. The sound quality is good, and the talking feature rules, but when faced with lag I was subject to a hissing noise. Maybe my product is defective, maybe not. In any case, it's super fun, and necessary to join clans /cells on such games as Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror, and Socom: Fireteam Bravo. A must have for the infrastructure PSP gamer!
