How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want a headset built for all-day UC work with dual noise-cancelling mics, a flip-to-mute boom and certified Microsoft Teams integration, choose Yealink UH37; if you need a lightweight plug-and-play USB headset with a 270° adjustable mic for meetings, study and general PC audio, choose Monster Voicelink 100.
• Yealink UH37 — biggest strength: a proper work headset spec sheet. Dual noise-cancelling microphones, Microsoft Teams certification, dual mute (ear-shell control plus flip-to-mute boom), 35mm stereo drivers with dynamic EQ, and both USB-C and USB-A connectors in the box.
• Yealink UH37 — biggest trade-off: it's the more specialised, work-first design. On-ear/over-ear pads, a metal headband and a 140 g build mean it's aimed at desks and call centres rather than thrown in a bag for casual listening.
• Monster Voicelink 100 — biggest strength: simplicity and comfort. A lightweight structure, soft leather cushions and a 270° adjustable microphone that you can position exactly where your voice is clearest.
• Monster Voicelink 100 — biggest trade-off: the data sheet is thin on hard specs. No stated driver size, frequency range or connector split beyond "USB", and no dedicated mute or call-control hardware mentioned — so it leans on plug-and-play rather than deep call features.
• Pick Yealink UH37 if you live in Teams or Zoom all day and want hardware controls at your fingertips.
• Pick Monster Voicelink 100 if you want a simple, comfortable USB headset for meetings and study without thinking about settings.
The UH37 is the one I'd hand to someone whose job is talking. Everything in its spec sheet points that way. The dual noise-cancelling microphones are tuned for voice pickup, and the headset carries Microsoft Teams certification, which matters if your company runs on Teams and you're tired of headsets that half-work with it.
Comfort is clearly a design priority too: soft breathable leather ear cups and a flexible metal headband, at 140 g. Add USB-C and USB-A in one package and you can move between a modern laptop and an older desktop dock without an adapter hunt. Who should skip it? If you mainly want headphones for casual listening and the occasional call, the UH37's call-centre DNA is more headset than you need.
Monster Voicelink 100: Who It's For
The Voicelink 100 is the easygoing option. Monster describes it as plug-and-play over USB, which is the whole pitch: plug in, it works. There's no software story to learn and no certification to check — it's built to be compatible with the major conferencing platforms including Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet.
The microphone is the standout feature on paper. It rotates through 270°, so you can park it right at your mouth for a noisy room or angle it further out when things are quiet. That flexibility is genuinely useful, and it's a different approach from Yealink's flip-to-mute: one gives you positioning, the other gives you instant privacy.
Comfort gets real attention too. Soft leather cushions that mold to your ears, plus a lightweight structure designed to reduce fatigue over long calls or study sessions. If you're a student on back-to-back lectures or someone who takes a handful of meetings a day and then closes the laptop, that lightweight build is the right trade.
Who should skip it? Anyone who needs hardware mute, on-headset volume buttons or certified Teams integration. The data sheet doesn't list those, so if call control matters to you, the Yealink is the safer bet.
Side-by-Side: Which Should You Choose?
• Best for mic positioning → Monster Voicelink 100. A 270° adjustable boom lets you fine-tune where the mic sits.
• Best for Teams-heavy workplaces → Yealink UH37. It's Microsoft Teams certified and works with Zoom and other UC platforms.
• Best for plug-and-play simplicity → Monster Voicelink 100. USB connection, no setup, works across Zoom, Teams and Google Meet.
• Best for long wear → close call, but the Voicelink 100's lightweight build and soft leather cushions are designed specifically to minimise fatigue.
• Best for audio versatility → Yealink UH37. 35mm stereo drivers plus dynamic EQ that flips between call and music mode automatically.
• Best for mixed hardware → Yealink UH37. USB-C and USB-A both ship with it, so old and new machines are covered.
• Best for a single, simple job → Monster Voicelink 100. If you just need clear voice on calls, it does that without extra complexity.
In my opinion, the Yealink UH37 is the better buy for anyone whose headset is a work tool. Dual noise-cancelling mics, Teams certification, dual mute, dynamic EQ and both USB connector types add up to a headset that solves problems you'll actually hit during a working week. I'd recommend the Monster Voicelink 100 instead if your priority is a light, comfortable, plug-and-play headset for meetings and studying, and you don't need hardware mute or call controls. Both are wired, both are USB, and both should be checked against the current price on Amazon before you commit.
Both of these are USB headsets, so the process is the same: plug the USB connector into an available port and the operating system picks it up as an audio device. The Yealink UH37 gives you a choice of USB-C or USB-A, while the Monster Voicelink 100 uses a USB connection and is described as plug-and-play. Then select the headset as your input and output device in your call app.
Xbox One consoles don't accept USB audio headsets for chat the way a PC does — they expect a headset that connects through the controller's 3.5mm jack. Neither the Yealink UH37 nor the Monster Voicelink 100 lists a 3.5mm connector in its specs, so I wouldn't buy either one expecting Xbox One chat to work.
Same situation as Xbox One. The Series X routes headset audio through the controller, and both of these are USB-only designs. For console use you'd want a headset with a 3.5mm plug, not either of these two.
"Wiring" a USB headset is really just plugging it in and telling your app which device to use. With the Yealink UH37 you then have on-ear-shell call, volume and mute controls plus the flip-to-mute boom; with the Monster Voicelink 100 you position the 270° mic and rely on your software's mute button.
