It is also quite long.

 
When transmitted the microphone there are some sound pickings like breathing sounds, but it is just a slight readjustment and it won’t pick up any background noise. The microphone also has a nice little light on top that lights up red that indicates the microphone is muted. The mic monitoring is functional but unfortunately, it is pretty weak. 
 
When it comes to chat and calls there is a dual-mic system. The first microphone activates when the boom microphone is unplugged. So this microphone is letting us take mobile calls, talk to the phone’s voice assistant, and more without the need for an extremity pushing out from the headset.
