The microphones used for noise cancelling act as the microphone for calls.

I've tried them out in call and have had no problems.

Just made a phone call with the headphones it is working okay. Its silly cos on the guide book there is microphone.

Thanks for your help
The red circle shows were the microphone is on the earphone, a way you can test it is if you activate the noise cancelling, rub your fingers across that part of the earphone, you'll hear that typical swashing sound when rubbing a mic.

Hi, could you describe the method for recieving calls with this headset? Does it auto-answer, or do you have to press an answer icon on your phone display? As I understand it, this headset doesn't have any volume/answer buttons.

Correct, the headset doesn't feature any buttons. To me that's quite a downer. It's very inconvenient to pull out the phone for all actions like picking a call and pause/play/rev/fwd music. They sound good and noise cancelling works perfectly in flight, but I really dislike that they don't feature a button.

I know this is an old thread but I've had a problem with my headset pretty much since day one. People who i speak with can hear the background noise a whole lot more (like a storm) more than what they can hear me.

It works perfect with noise canceling all on its own and with music, the problem lies with calls.

Can anyone offer a solution? (BTW, I've got a Z3)
