Very good product, lots of utility
Great product so far, I have been using it for work as I work from home and it has been exceptional in that regard. It holds strong through an 10 hour work day and then continues into night with gaming. And for gaming the different audio modes make it great for the high intensity and rapid sound response needed. I like it for music and movies too. Overall I am definitely satisfied, hopefully they hold up over time!

Potentially amazing headset, but terrible mic
This was my very first experience with a Razer headset and I was enjoying it, until my friends invited to me a PS5 chat. Everything on my end sounds wonderful, their voices super clear and loud. However, my voice? I apparently sounded like I was put on speaker during a phone call. They understood what I was saying but the quality was way off. I checked my PC for a firmware update and there wasn't one. I then checked Discord on my PC to see if it was just the Playstation and same thing. That's very unfortunate. I was so excited for these, largely because of the convenience in the USB-C dongle itself. If you're in need of a headset solely for listening to game audio and/or music, then these will do the job just fine. If you need one to also chat with, look elsewhere.
