Material is terrible
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm not really a review person but I feel you all should know about my experience with the Razen Headset. Let start with the pros, Pros: Great sound Comfortable Easy mute Extendable attachment cord Cons: Material (the plastic has to be 3D printed, one small tap and they crack until the hed set is in parts) I know that there is only one con but it is a major one. I had to but ducktape to hold t together. I can't adjust the headset for my head and it is just very uncomfortable now.

Ok headset. Lasted 2 months
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headset was pretty good comfort wise but other than that, theres nothing really special about them. Sound quality was average and had the same quality as a pair of dollar store headphones. Mic seemed decent. Listeners said they could hear me pretty clearly. Downloaded the 7.1 surround sound software that came with it. Sounds that should be from behind came through as middle bottom. So you can imagine the difference by thinking of someone talking behind you but it sounds like they're talking below you. No problems with sounds from the front. Left side ended up breaking when trying to extend as seen in the pics. Would only recommend if they were in the $10-$25 range.

Comfy Enough
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With the advance of technology, I thought by this time, people knows how to design a well verse of the headset but it isn't so. I bought the G432 from the Logitech and after a few months, one of the earcup went dead. I bought another Mpow 071 headset, everything seemed perfect but it crushed my ear after an hour wearing. Finally I bought this yesterday and I was wearing for an hour and it was so good so far. It's comfy for my ears and the volume is loud enough for conversation with my customers since I work as a customer service from home and I need a good headset to carry me through the day. The only thing I don't like about this is the "control volume button" and "the mute button" are small and above the earcup and it's hard to reach. The G432 has a better idea by making "the mute button" and the flip to mute function is handy and not a distraction while wearing the headset. I had no issues with pain or pressure on my head or ears and felt that the padding was good for the design.

Cracking after 2 Months, Warranty Denied
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have fine sound and mic pickup. I like the longer cord and that they included a splitter since I have a PC with separate headphone and mic jacks. However, after barely 2 months of ownership, the inner headband that connects to the ear is cracking on both sides. One side is cracked badly enough that I have to push that side completely down so that it doesn't get any worse. I contacted Razer about this since I'm past the return policy for Best Buy and Razer denied the claim saying it's due to customer use and it wouldn't be fair to replace them because I didn't buy their RazerCare plan. Apparently I should have added that on because then they would cover these headphones. I'll just keep using them until they fully break but at the rate it's going, that might be within a month, but never again with Razer.

Decent headset with poor build quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this headset for a little over a year now. It has mostly performed as expected in this price range. I like that it has a mute button behind the left ear. However, my mute button gets stuck regularly since I first got the headset. Today, the headset fell off of my desk onto carpet and the head band cracked. It's pretty much useless at this point as the fit is no longer snug. My recommendation would be to look elsewhere for an inexpensive gaming headset.
