Excellent headset all around!
The headset is great, the build is top quality, the comfort is amazing as always with cloud headsets, the new earpads are much better than the leatherette ones, the only thing that is lacking its volume, I have to crank the volume up all the way to 19/20, 20/20 to play competitive shooters on PC, that can be fixed with a firmware update, the sound aside from the lack of volume its amazing for hearing footsteps and locate enemies and hearing all sound effects from the game, pretty happy with my purchase, I hope they finish the Ngenuity software soon to unlock the full potential of the headset.

All For One
Sound quality on these are amazing, the included RGB base lets you customize the volume of the headset, how loud you can hear yourself and even have many different media controls. The HyperX NGenuity software is lacking but being constantly updated so there will be more to come. Otherwise microphone quality, battery life and comfort is where this headset excels!

Must Try!
it took my gaming experience to next level. There is no ANC but i feel it is because the headset is more focused on gaming. It has a base station which consists of a lot many features and they are quite good.
