Surprisingly good if you can catch them on sale.
NOTE: I bought these with my own doll-a-roos and did not receive any compensation from Razer or any company mentioned in this review! I tested these for PC only. --Sound-- 8/10 The sound out of these is surprisingly good out of the box and gets plenty loud. I recommend that you skip any software downloads as that seem to change the stock sound and not in a good way. The "THX system" (which is through the software) just makes these headphones have more bass and it's ok but the sound is better stock. At higher volumes the lightweight plastic leaks sound a little but you have to get pretty loud to notice this. I consider the sound (pre-software) more reference oriented and clear but with enough bass for when it's needed. Comparing these to my more expensive Steel Series headset I prefer the sound from these. --"Spatial Audio"-- 6/10 I put spatial audio in quotes because it's just simulated surround sound. The surround sound through the software is gimmicky at best and I would skip it. However try it yourself. I noticed with the Razer Software installed It was actually harder to tell proximity location with these headphones. I recommend using the Dolby Atmos headphone software instead with the pure gaming mode set as all the others smear the sound too much. My other recommendation (for PC) is the steel series GG as it is a close second to Dolby. Also it's free, includes sonar and is FREE! The Dolby is 15 bucks however it comes with a free trial so you can decide for yourself. --Connection-- 6/10 These headphones are wireless only so keep that in mind. They come with a usb dongle and it has a decent range but could be further. Buy these if you only care about a wireless headset. --Feel-- 8/10 The pads feel great and the headphones, while large, feels lightweight. I didn't notice any hotspots from the pads or the headband. The pads are oversized and low pressure making them great for those wearing glasses. They are big enough and light enough to be a good fit for almost everyone (unless you have a Patrick Star conehead). --Mic-- 6/10 Not great but not bad. It has a serviceable volume and rejects outside noises okay. The pull down design is wonky at best and there is not a tone telling you if you've unmuted your mic correctly. You're not impressing anyone with this mic but that's okay. --Final Thoughts-- If you can catch these below 40 bucks you have just got yourself a deal. I bought these for comfort alone and I found myself able to live with everything else. I used these for PC so I cannot comment on the PlayStation performance. However I ended up using the headphone stock (by preference) so it shouldn't be too far off from PC performance. SIDE NOTE: Be careful with the plastic the box comes with. It's actually pretty sharp and nicks you if aren't careful when you're opening it. Cheers!

Razer has yet to disappoint me
Admittedly these were bigger then I expected and Im not really a fan of big headphones/headsets, but the comfortability and sound quality made me quickly get over that. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a new headset

Great headset - comfortable, audio quality, price
Great headset and sound quality. Battery lasts for hours, only have to charge it like once a week. I don't usually like to have a headset on both ears for hours due to discomfort, but these are the comfiest headset I've owned and have no problem gaming for hours with them on. Got it on sale for 40 bucks and couldn't be happier. My first wireless headset and don't think I'll ever go bakc to wired.

Good enough for gaming and work calls
Feels a little big and chunky, but feels comfy and great for work. I use this one as a work from home headset for conference calls, and everybody says it sounds loud and clear. Audio is good on my end too. At the sale price of $39.99, this is indeed a great option for gaming and for calls.

Comfortable Fit
My favorite part about these headphones is how the earmuffs rest around the ears as opposed to on them. It makes for a much mor comfortable fit. It has pretty great sound quality, and the wireless capability rounds it out to be the best headset I've ever bought.
