Logitech H570e Headset Logitech H570e USB Headset With Microphone for PC Review
The Logitech H570e is a comfortable, no-fuss USB headset built for Microsoft Teams. It excels at calls but only offers mono audio, making it a specialist, not an all-rounder.
The 30-Second Version
The Logitech H570e is a comfortable, plug-and-play USB headset built for Microsoft Teams. Its call quality and ANC mics are great, but it's mono audio only. At ~$40, it's a solid buy for dedicated work calls, but skip it for music or media.
Overview
The Logitech H570e is a USB-A wired headset built for one thing: getting work done. It's a certified Microsoft Teams device with plug-and-play simplicity, two noise-canceling mics, and a dedicated Teams button. This isn't a headset for audiophiles or gamersβit's a lightweight, comfortable tool designed to make your calls clear and your workday a bit easier.
Performance
For its purpose, it performs well. The dual mics and noise cancellation are effective, landing in the 90th percentile for ANC in our database. Call clarity is solid. The sound quality for music and media is decent, scoring a 76.4 for music, but it's mono audio, so don't expect a rich stereo soundstage. It's comfortable enough to wear all day, which is the main point.

Value & Pricing
At around $40, the value proposition is straightforward. You're paying for certified Teams compatibility, good call quality, and all-day comfort. You aren't paying for premium materials, wireless freedom, or immersive stereo sound. For a dedicated work-from-home headset on a tight budget, it's a fair deal. For anything else, it's a harder sell.
Price History
vs Competition
This sits in a different lane than the popular wireless over-ears like the Sony WH-1000XM6 or Anker Space One Pro. Those are for music, travel, and ANC. The H570e is a wired, purpose-built business tool. Compared to other basic USB headsets, its comfort and certified mics are a standout. But if you need stereo audio for media, look at something like the Soundcore Life Q30, which offers that and wireless for not much more money.

Common Questions
Q: Does this work with Mac or just Windows?
Yes, it's plug-and-play for Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS via USB-A. You might need a simple USB-A to USB-C adapter for newer MacBooks.
Q: Is the sound good for listening to music?
It's decent, scoring a 76.4 in our music tests, but it's mono audio. You won't get a true stereo left/right channel separation, so it's not ideal for critical music listening.
Q: How is the microphone quality?
Very good for calls. The dual noise-canceling mics rank in the 87th percentile, and the Teams certification means they're optimized to cut out background noise and keep your voice clear.
Who Should Skip This
Skip this if you want a headset for music, gaming, or watching movies. The mono audio kills the experience. Also, avoid it if you need wireless freedom or connect to multiple devices. This is a single-purpose, wired tool for your computer.
Verdict
Buy this if you need a no-fuss, comfortable headset specifically for Microsoft Teams calls on a desktop or laptop. It's perfect for remote workers, call center agents, or anyone who spends hours on video conferences and values simplicity over features. It does its job well and won't hurt your ears or your wallet.
