    I bought this pair of headphones while on sale for just over $20 and I think they were well worth the price. The original price (not certain, but I thought closer to $40 or $50) is a little steep however. They are a cheaper plastic and can get uncomfortable if wearing for an extended period of time, just like any others. Overall they work pretty well and I love being able to turn the TV volume down and can still hear gameplay through the headphones (perfect for when the wife doesn't want to hear). As stated in the title, great headphones if found on sale.

    Purchased this set for my nephew. He's loving the sound quality and appreciated the bass the headset puts out. When he's not gaming, he uses them for listening to music. The plastic mic is prone to breaking if headphones are not properly secured when not in use. Overall a good budget headset.

    I play a fair amount fallout 4 and GTA 5 so having obscenities and gunshots, explosions being thrown around the house late at night when the kids are trying to sleep ain't cool. Able to tell which side gunfire/conversation is coming from from things happening off screen. Pretty comfortable although I do notice a sense of relief from my head/ears after 1-2 hours of gaming. Don't know about the mic because I don't PvP with the console. Got them for xbox1 with the 3.5 mm jack.

    This headset is lightweight, comfortable and has decent sound. The cord gets twisted up fairly easily. No complaints, especially for the price I paid, which wasn't full price. Although if I had paid full price I would still be happy with the product.

    So far so good really like the headset seems very durable I like the color great sound only thing is in the description I did not know I needed to buy an adapter which is an annoyance adapter was about 25 bucks the headset was a good price and on sale for 19 so I spent close to 50 total make sure your controller is a newer model with the phone jack on the bottom because if not you need an adapter with all that being said I'm satisfied with the product

    I searched a while for a headset and thought I would give this one a try. Very comfortable, great sound and mic works great! The only downfall is you seem to go through batteries a lot faster in the remote but as long as you use a good brand it isn't to bad. Overall very pleased with this purchase

    Overall quality on this headset is good. It's pretty sturdy, yet comfortable. This headset does not wear on you on extended play times. My only complaints on it are that it did not come with the plug-in stereo headset adapter. But if you have one from a previous headset it should work fine. Also the mic is a bit tricky sometimes, what I mean by that is that at times you have to speak up louder for it to pick up your voice. Overall though it's a good headset in terms of bang for your buck.

    It's comfortable but if you have a little bigger head it may not be, it wasn't very comfortable for my friend. It doesn't really get loud enough to immerse you in the game even if you have your Xbox settings and the headset volume settings all the way up. It looks nice but doesn't perform how I wanted. Was appointing but if you don't mind the low volume go ahead! But if you want it to drown out you background noise don't get this one.

    This is a good headset for the money. Sound quality is good. In-line volume control works very well. Also being able to mute the mic helps alot. They are comfortable to wear, however after very ong periods I experience a very very small amount of pain but it's not noticable. Overall I would recommend.

    A bought this headset for my 8 year old son and he loves them. He will not play his xbox without them now. Good clear sound, good deep bass and for the money, they were well worth it. We haven't used the microphone yet, so I can't comment on that yet.

    This headset was made to replace a previous, basic headset for my 11 year-old son. It fits great and is comfortable enough to be worn for long periods of time. Sound is very good as well as the microphone. Was simple to setup and use.

    Headset is comfortable and sound/voice is great for gaming with friends. Wired headset that plugs directly into the controller. Adjustable and flexible microphone boom. Noise-cancelling microphone helps when chatting.

    This gaming headset is a great buy for under $40. Clear and crisp sound with good deep bass, bring the gaming to a whole new level. Makes you feel part of the game a lot more. My kid has had it for 3 months, and loves it.

    This headset is surprisingly good quality in the lower price range group. Sound quality Is very good, with solid low bass and good midrange tones, and feedback from online opponents indicate the boom mic sound is decent. I'm a little concerned about the quality of the boom; it looks sturdy but is not very flexible and the plastic is rather thin..I'm not sure it can withstand impact if the microphone is dropped, but Best Buy offers a 2 year warranty for just a few bucks offering great coverage, so if anything goes wrong I can get an exchange with basically no questions asked. Overall quality coupled with the great price I got on this headset and the low-cost full feature warranty, it was a no-brainer purchase!

    They were on sale for $19.99, regularly priced in $40- $50 range and I would easily pay full price for these. The sound is great, everyone hears me no problem. They are also pretty comfortable as well. All in all, if you don't want to spend an arm and leg on turtle beaches, these worked out great! I have a galaxy S7 edge and they work with my phone too.
