    (no review title)

    Comfort: 5 (Elastic band on top was very nice.. but the ear cups is a bit small so big ears won't like these) "Glasses friendly is great" Mic quality: 6 (Quality is very sharp.. more so very big pitched) Music: 6 (Nothing too spectacular.. bass was just there and the treble is crisper)

    A step backwards...

    Bought this to replace my previous wired SteelSeries headset which was falling apart after many years of happy usage. This headset sounds great, but isn't as good because the ear cuffs are smaller and they are actually pretty uncomfortable. Wished I'd bought something more expensive.

    Great for audio sharing

    Bought this headset so i could use the audioshare feature to play coop games with my girlfriend without having to buy speakers of messing with my audio setup. And can only say it works perfectly, its comfortable and has great independent volume control.

    Very clear Audio

    This headset greatly improved the audio of my Teams meetings. I work from home and my family does not need to hear my meetings, and my colleagues do not need to hear background noise from my home. This headset solved both issues very well. Several of my colleagues have noticed the improvement in audio when I speak.

    Great Bang for buck

    The headset is really good for the price. My previous headset was a lot more expensive and sounded worse. Of course it has its flaws, the two-way, red and green aux is a little outdated and does create friction within my setup almost nine times out of ten but it gets the job done. I will probably upgrade to a better headset in the future, for the meantime this will do just fine.

    Very satisfactory

    Got this headset recommended by a good friend of mine and after a careful revaluation bought it at a discounted price. The microphone quality has especially been noticed by people I call with regurarly. Really happy so far after owning them for about a month.

    User friendly

    Features I liked: -great comfort(wore it for hours without ill effects on my ears) -high sound quality(if you don't need it for some highly professional audio work it sounds amazing) -cable length is sufficient -all of the mentioned qualities come with a fairly reasonable price Features I didn't like: -Actually couldn't think of anything really, don't throw them around I guess, since they are quite fragile. Overall extremely satisfied with the product.

    Do Not Recommend

    I am extremely disappointed in this product. I have been working night after night attempting to get even a lick of audio out of this headset. I have exhausted every attempt at making this embarrassing product work. I was a Steelseries fan before this headset and see my loyalty waning.
