Ensure the headset is properly connected to your device. Check the volume levels on both the headset and the device. Test with a different device to rule out a hardware issue.

Microphone not working.

Make sure the microphone is not muted (flip-up to unmute). Check the device's audio settings to ensure the headset mic is selected as the input device. Test the mic with a different application or device.

Poor audio quality.

Ensure the headset is properly plugged in. Check the audio settings on your device and make sure the correct audio profile is selected. Clean the speaker drivers with a soft, dry cloth.
