Pretty good
Overall good sounds quality and pretty comfortable, only downside is it sometimes disconnects from my console like it won’t let me hear the sound even when it’s connected, but it usually comes back if i just disconnect and reconnect again.

Best headset I’ve ever gotten as of now, I tried using many other brands like Logitech and Corsair and honestly this is one of those headsets that can easily compare to those other big brand names and imo can far surpass them, very comfortable, good mic, great packaging, and best of all an affordable price.
