The package has a black plastic lid on top with a latch. You flip up the latch, pull up on the plastic handle and lift it off. There's your usb cable on top. Pull two plastic tabs back, pull up on a tab in the center and the whole thing lifts out. No need to cut or tear anything! Off to a good start.
So, I take the headset out of the package and it looks just as nice as it does in the pictures. It's really something. I put it on and set it up with my PS3. Tested it out, played some metal gear online matches, etc.
So far, it's plenty loud, the sound is good and it's definitely comftorable. It doesn't sit in your ear at all, but the ear piece is larger (but very flat) so you get plenty of sound.
Overall, I'm very impressed with this headset and surprised there aren't more reviews.

First the packaging. Unlike most new devices or accessories I buy these days, this one came in a very simple to open package. It was not heat sealed in a thick plastic that seems to get sharper than the scissors you need to open it! For this all you had to do was remove two pieces of tape, lift two tabs and the main piece just slides right out. The earpiece is then secured with a twist tie that is very simply removed. This is a company that knows people actually like to use the things they buy!
Second is the included chargers. It does not use a standard USB connection to charge; however, they include a cable designed for plugging into a USB port. I use this PS3 Charge Station to charge my controllers and now my earpiece thanks to that cable.
Now the actual earpiece. It is very comfortable and sits well on the ear. The loop that goes around your ear is very soft and flexible.
As they say you will forget you are even wearing it. Or at least you would if it wasn't for the great sound quality. That little single speaker on the device is extremely clear. I have had no problems hearing people and no one has complained about being able to hear me.
This device allows for great communication while playing, so it does add another level of fun to gaming.

Its light, looks good and has crystal clear sound quality. Other people with mics can hear you as if your right next to them and you can every word anyone says. For the price this headset is probably the best on the market. I have tried Xbox 360 and Ps3 headset and this one is by far the best headset. Some people say that wireless headsets have bad connection or get choppy but i have had this headset for 2 yrs and it functions like it did right out of the box. PLEASE BUY THIS HEADSET ITS WORTH IT!!! Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you?

Logitech PlayStation 3 Vantage USB Headset Customer Reviews
This review is from: Logitech PlayStation 3 Vantage USB Headset
Wow.. I can't believe some of the reviews.This headset for under 20 bucks is great.
Here's a couple of points to some of the bad things I've seen here..
1. It's not small. My head is 7 1/2 hatsize and that's pretty fair size. It adjusts bigger than I need.
2. The mic does only reach your mid cheek, but that's the way you want it. The days of needing the mic to reach around in front of your mouth are over. How do you people think blue tooth phones pick up your voice from up by your ear? LoL at folks.. technology people.. keep up.
3. It is plenty sturdy. It's not made of metal though. I've had mine for 5 months or so now and it's in the same shape as I bought it and that's with me and my 2 kids using it.
4. I play Burnout Paradise every night and my setup on the Ps3 is constantly among the best sounding. Period.
5. The mic again.. it doesn't touch your cheek unless you adjust it too. It's got a flex rod and can easily be bent anyway you want it. Away from your cheek or on it. lol again at this complaint.
Overall, I'd say this headset right now is the best option for the PS3. I've tried some wireless headsets and just wasn't happy with the quality, so I bought this on to use till I found a better solution.. now though, I quit looking. I'm happy with this headset and don't see the need to look further.
Will it stand up to a temper tantrum trowing child, smashing it on the ground after getting pwn'd in MGS? Probably not. My kid broke my 250 dollar Sennheiser's when he couldn't beat "Raining Blood" on Guitar Hero/extreme. Now he's the lawnmower hero.
Best Headset for the Best Price, I'm sick and tired of people giving bad reviews on this headset.I own a PS3 and I've played COD4 for about 12 days. Many people have horrible mics that echo and make what I call "the devil screech." Bluetooth mics create that noice when they pick up background noice. I previously owned a blutooth not knowing about this one. The first problem was it echoed horribly, where as the this product has no echo what so ever. Also charging a blutooth can be a pain and turning it on and off for some can be trouble. When using this product it requires no charging and it is always paired and it is always on. The noise cancelation on this product is great. I usually always have a loud tv on in my house and my friends can't hear it any more since I've switched to the Logitech USB. Also the cord is very long so you don't have to play close to your tv if you don't want to. In short this headset is the most reliable product on the market today for its inexpensive price.
