Microsoft's official Xbox One wired headset revealed
IGN's article states that Microsoft's headset will have a wideband voice codec that should improve voice chat, but no details were revealed. The image of the wired headset shows a mute button, along with + and - volume buttons, that have been placed on the controller input side. It's possible that Microsoft could release a higher end headset for the console at some point, perhaps one that uses a wireless connection.
So far, Microsoft has yet to reveal pricing for their own Xbox One headset, just like they have yet to announce pricing for a stand alone Xbox One controller. If you want a headset for the console that offers more features, there will likely be quite a few ready for the Xbox One's launch. Turtle Beach has already announced it will be making headsets specifically for the console, but no details or prices have been revealed.

That, unlike the console itself, is looking okay. I'm using a gaming headset, so it doesn't really matter anyway :P

I think this the jack at the bottom of the controller will get in my way. I really liked the old one better as it had the controls on the wire, way smaller and more convenient for me.

For a "cheap" little headset for a console, it looks pretty good. I like it moreso than the Xbox 360's "cheap" mic. Not sure if I like the mute button though. It's easier to tell if I muted myself with a mic with a switch. Hopefully there is something of the sort to tell if it's muted or not without having to just guess or go through menus. Small complaint, but it's a complaint nevertheless, lol.

I like how you have control of the mic right below your controller but I'm not a big fan of this design.

It looks nice im just worried if our current mics will work with the new control. Look at that new plug :(

ExoticWolfsMonster-Munch Looks crap tbh.
Please tell me how this looks like crap. In my opinion and many other, it looks very nice and sharp. people like the new design.... I don't see what is crap about it.
Don't bother with him, he's just a PS4 fanboy trying to talk crap.
