New gig, going to be a fair bit of Skype meetings so looking for some good recs on headsets, comfy, good for skype and noise cancelling would be nice.

Cheers.

On a PC, laptop or mobile? USB or bluetooth?
Bose are great, but it depends on your budget, really

for laptop mostly, but bluetooth would be good so don't need a usb port for it.

I saw that, pricey but the reviews were very good. Is it comfy on the ears?

I have a pair of Jabra Evolve 40s for when i'm traveling. They are very comfy and can be used in a 3.5mm socket or USB.

+1 for the 40s, work better on a PC than a Mac but I like having the cord and the mute button for when I'm not paying attention on calls, go for the duo rather than the mono though

I use the plantronics focus - got them as a feeebie, don’t think I would pay that price for them.

The Bose are excellent as noise cancelling headphones, but the mic picks up any and all ambient sound and can only really be used when you’re on your own.

I’ve been looking at headsets with noise cancelling mics and came up with these.
