Will buy again.
One of my favorite headsets I’ve ever used. Comfortable, light weight, great audio clarity and my friends say I sound the most clear it’s ever been.

Economical and worth every penny.
Very great quality. The only flaw is that the bluetooth adapter is that it is made in an awkward shape that it will not allow you to plug in anything in the USB port if you plug it in the front (ps5); however, very light and the microphone is able to hide inside the left ear speaker to prevent damage. Also the headset is very light. Perfect for the average person. This is that headset people sleep on.

Well-built and useful
I do like this headset, and I've only noticed 2 negatives about it. 1. The audio fidelity doesn't match comparably priced pairs of wired headphones designed for music listening. 2. The Bluetooth connection cuts in-and-out when connected to my desktop PC. The built-in, retractable microphone is real good to have, the USB wireless connection is pretty flawless, and the bluetooth seems to work fine with my phone, so it might be a driver issue with the computer. Overall it seems great for gaming and streaming. The battery lasts a while: I don't game on my computer every day, so I only have to charge the headset once a week or less. It's built pretty solidly, and it's comfortable around my head and ears. Hopefully the ear cups will last as long as the other components; I know they tend to be the first thing to wear out, so it's good that replacement cups are $14.99 on the Arctis website.
