Glorious - GHS Eternal RGB Over-Ear Wired Gaming Headset for PC, PS5, PS4, Switch and Mobile - Black

Short version: great buy for a picky gamer. She likes it, uses it daily, hasn’t killed it, and hasn’t asked to replace it — which honestly is the real test. Long version: I bought this as a gift for my gamer girlfriend who plays mostly on Nintendo Switch (on the go), PS5, and occasionally PC. I’ll admit it right away — I’m one of those people who reads way too many reviews and Q&As before buying anything tech‑related. I also knew going in that this was a newer headset, so yeah, I took a bit of a chance — but not a blind one. She already owns and really loves her Glorious Infinite Mouse with Power Booster Packs, so I felt better giving this a shot knowing their other gear has held up well for her. I was comparing this against the usual options in this price range (Cloud III, Nova 3, Kraken V4 X, etc.), and I kept seeing the same questions pop up everywhere: “Does this work on Switch?” “Is the mic actually clear?” “Is it sturdy or does it feel cheap?” That’s where this headset stood out. It just works everywhere. Plugged straight into the Switch, PS5 controller, PC, and even my iPhone — no adapters, no messing with settings. For a wired headset, that flexibility actually matters way more than people think. Sound quality surprised me in a big way. Besides gaming, I’ve borrowed it to plug into my iPhone for YouTube and random videos, and it sounds really nice. Good bass without being overpowering, clear mids, and nothing harsh. I was honestly pretty impressed for the price. It’s not studio headphones, but for a gaming headset it definitely doesn’t sound cheap. She was impressed too admitted it sounded like an expensive headset For games, directional audio is solid. Footsteps are easy to place and it doesn’t have that overly boomy or muddy tuning that some gaming headsets have. It feels tuned for gaming first — not productivity or music production — which is exactly what it should be. Mic nitpick: it can pick up some background noise if it’s not positioned well. Once you take 30 seconds to get the mic placed correctly, though, it sounds good and her teammates had no issues hearing her clearly. This isn’t a podcast or work‑from‑home headset — it’s a gaming mic, and for that purpose it works well. The mic also bends out of the way and detaches completely when she doesn’t want it in her face. One thing I didn’t expect but really liked is the software side. Using their Glorious CORE on PC, you can tweak the EQ and settings, and the headset actually remembers those settings on the headset itself. Once it’s set, you can unplug it and use it on a console or phone without needing software running in the background — the tuning stays. That’s a nice touch and not something every headset in this price range handles well. The ear cups and the suspension headband (that’s what I call the top strap) feel quality too. And overall, this feels like real gaming gear — not flimsy, not delicate. It can get tossed on a desk, twisted around, dropped in a backpack, and yeah… survive the occasional rage moment. It’s not a fragile flower — it fits right in with the rest of her gaming setup. The RGB is subtle but clean. It looks good on a desk and doesn’t scream for attention. More “nice addition to a setup” than “look at me.” Is it the cheapest option out there? No. Is it overpriced? Also no. After testing and handling a few cheaper and pricier options, this felt like a newer, better‑thought‑out headset rather than something getting cleared out or cut down to hit a price point. Bottom line: great buy for a picky gamer. She’s happy with it, uses it daily, hasn’t broken it, and hasn’t asked to swap it out — and that’s honestly the best endorsement I can give.

The headset is extremely comfortable and I the cord is a great size (hate it when others have shortened their cords). I have worn the headset for about 2 weeks including some long gaming sessions (10 hours) and it has been really comfortable and feels very light on my head. The suspension headband feels comfortable and it doesn't pinch (others have pinched in the past). I really like the forward facing lights (others point to the side and then if I am on camera, no one sees the lights). Also, the pricing is great, lower than others with RGB lights. It is a great value and a headset that I will continue to use PC gaming. Thank you Glorious, this may be my new go-to headset.

No complaints. Fits well and is very adjustable. Sounds good and being able to adjust game and chat volumes separately with the dials on each ear is very helpful.
