We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want a wired, plug-and-play headset built around Microsoft Teams calls with dual ENC mics and a boom that rotates a full 350°, choose Callez USB Headset; if you need a wireless, open-ear headset with Bluetooth 5.4, multipoint pairing and a 220° boom mic you can flip to mute, choose MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones.
• Callez USB Headset — biggest strength: dedicated Teams call button plus dual ENC noise cancellation, in-line mic mute and volume controls, and a very light 2 oz on-ear build with a 6.56 ft USB-A cable.
• Callez USB Headset — biggest trade-off: it is wired only, so you are tethered to the laptop and there is no battery, no Bluetooth and no multipoint.
• MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones — biggest strength: 29 g open-ear design with Bluetooth 5.4, dual-device multipoint connection and up to 12 hours of playback on a 2-hour charge.
• MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones — biggest trade-off: no jack at all, so it depends entirely on a charged battery, and the open-ear hook fit lets outside sound in by design.
• Who each is for: Callez for desk-bound Teams, Zoom and call-centre work; MONODEAL for people who move between devices, drive, work out or want to stay aware of their surroundings.
The Callez USB Headset is a single-purpose tool, and that is exactly why it works. It is a wired, on-ear mono headset that ends in a USB-A plug. No pairing, no charging, no app. You plug it into a laptop or desktop and it is simply there, every time you sit down. For anyone who has ever lost the first five minutes of a meeting fighting a Bluetooth connection, that reliability is the entire point.
What it does best is voice work. The dual ENC microphones are built to cancel environmental noise so your voice arrives clean, and the flexible boom rotates through 350° so you can park it exactly where you want it. On top of that sits a genuinely practical control set: a dedicated Teams button that opens the Teams window or joins a meeting with one press, an in-line mic mute, and volume up/down. The busylight is a small detail that matters more than people expect in an open-plan office or a shared home workspace — it tells the room you are on a call.
The listening side is handled by 28 mm dynamic drivers with a 20 Hz–20,000 Hz range and 32 ohm impedance, which is a sensible spec for speech rather than bass-heavy music. Acoustic Shock Protection is there to guard your hearing against sudden spikes. Comfort is a strong suit: roughly 2 oz on the head, an adjustable headband, soft memory foam and a skin-friendly faux-leather-and-metal build. A 6.56 ft cable gives you room to lean back or reach for a notebook without unplugging.
Who should buy it: remote workers, call-centre agents, students in online classes, and anyone whose day is a stack of Teams or Zoom meetings on a computer. Who should skip it: if you need to walk around while talking, take calls from a phone, or connect to two devices at once, this is the wrong shape of product — it is wired and USB-A only, so there is no phone or tablet use in the picture. It also ships with a 45-day money-back window and a 24-month warranty.
The MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones take the opposite approach: nothing touches your ear canal, nothing plugs in, and nothing ties you to the desk. The hook-style frame is wrapped in soft silicone over a high-tensile memory titanium alloy band that curves behind your ear. At 29 g it is designed to disappear on your head over a long day, and the open-ear fit keeps your ear canal clean and, more importantly, keeps you aware of what is happening around you.
The wireless side is the headline. Bluetooth 5.4 handles setup and connection, with a stated 10 m range and a signal that is meant to stay stable without noticeable delay. Multipoint is the feature I would point a hybrid worker to first: it holds two connections at once, so you can be on a laptop call and still catch an incoming call on your phone. The multifunction button covers power, play/pause, voice assistant and call answer/end/reject, and Type-C charging tops it up in about 2 hours for up to 12 hours of music playback. One caveat straight from the specs: it is not suitable for use while charging.
For calls, MONODEAL uses dual-mic ENC noise reduction with a 220° rotatable boom microphone. That rotating boom is the clever bit — the brand describes flipping the mic up to silence it, which is a physical mute you can confirm with your own eyes rather than trusting a button state. The dual dynamic drivers deliver stereo sound.
Who should buy it: drivers, delivery riders, gym-goers, hybrid workers who bounce between a phone and a laptop, and anyone who finds in-ear or over-ear headphones uncomfortable or unsafe in traffic. Who should skip it: if you want guaranteed audio without thinking about battery, or you need a wired jack for a legacy desk phone or a fixed workstation, the MONODEAL has no jack at all and lives or dies by its charge. Coverage is a 1-year warranty.
• Best for Microsoft Teams workflows → Callez USB Headset. The dedicated Teams call button and busylight are built for exactly this.
• Best for mobility and multi-device switching → MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones. Bluetooth 5.4 plus dual-device multipoint beats a fixed cable here.
• Best for battery life and untethered use → MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones, with up to 12 hours of playback and a 2-hour charge.
• Best for guaranteed, zero-setup audio → Callez USB Headset. Plug into USB-A and it works; no pairing and no charging to remember.
• Best for all-day comfort while wearing glasses or helmets → MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones. The 29 g open-ear hook design avoids pressure on the ear.
• Best for concentrated voice clarity at a desk → Callez USB Headset, thanks to dual ENC mics, a 350° boom and in-line mute.
• Best for situational awareness (driving, running, busy streets) → MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones. The open-ear fit is deliberately designed not to seal you off.
• Best for a single fixed workstation → Callez USB Headset. One cable, one computer, one job.
If I were buying for myself and my day was a wall of Teams and Zoom calls at a desk, I would buy the Callez USB Headset. The wired USB-A connection removes every failure mode I actually get annoyed by — dead batteries, dropped pairings, the wrong output device — and the Teams button, busylight and in-line mute are the right controls for that job. I would pick the MONODEAL Open Ear Headphones instead if my calls follow me out the door, if I split time between a phone and a laptop, or if I need to hear traffic and colleagues around me. In my opinion this is not a quality question — it is a question of whether you sit still or move. Check the current price on Amazon before you commit, since that is the one variable I cannot judge for you.
FAQ
how to use wireless headphones mic on pc
can you use bluetooth headphones as a mic
Yes, if the headset has a built-in microphone, which the MONODEAL does — it carries dual-mic ENC noise reduction and a rotatable boom mic. Bluetooth carries both directions, so the same headset handles playback and your voice. Just make sure the input is set to the headset rather than your laptop's internal mic.
do all bluetooth headphones have a microphone
No. Bluetooth headphones without a mic exist, and they can only play audio. The MONODEAL is explicitly a wireless headset with microphone, with dual ENC mics, a 220° boom and a mute switch. If voice input matters, check that the model lists a microphone before buying.
how to use mic on wireless headphones
Charge the headset first — the MONODEAL takes about 2 hours for up to 12 hours of playback and is not suitable for use while charging — then connect via Bluetooth and pick it as the input device. Flip or rotate the boom mic into position and toggle the mute switch when you need privacy. With the Callez there is no such setup: plug the USB-A cable in and the mic is live.
