My brother needs a headset for his laptop. I've looked at the jack with him, who has only one. But next to the jack is a symbol of a microphone and with a slash delimited the icon of a headphone.
Question: Can this jack be used only as a headphone or as a microphone, or is it possible for this jack to function as a headphone jack and microphone jack at the same time?
Question: Is there a headset with a microphone and headphone jack and if so, what are the names of such headsets?
Simultaneously
Yes, they do not have a specific name.
Okay, I want to order one right now. How can I tell if they are headsets with a latch if they are not fully mapped? They have to be called somehow.
You can see it on the plug and the accessories.
I have this:

Look at the pictures.
Very easily:
Either you buy an adapter (costs 5-10 euro)
(OTB audio cable 2 x 3.5mm jack socket to 3.5mm jack plug stereo (PC headset> iPhone)) for example
or he buys a decent headset with usb (are generally better)
It is probably the indication:
- Connector: 3.5 mm (1/8 ") mini stereo, gold-plated (4 poles)
Very simple: with 2 pinions you usually have mono sound
at 3 then stereo sound (both sides different loud)
and at 4 this is a micro. The headset you have got 4 so it has a jack. I would still recommend usb

I want to get one from amazon, because I still order a book for 60 cents, but the shipping is 3 euro. Is that with a latch?
You realize that the part is mono?
Oh ups. I thought first, mono stands for a jack, but refers to a headphone.
