Customer Ratings & Reviews

It’s a great headset that I can hear my gaming clearly.

Good headphones for the money. Can't complain about them

These headphones are absolutely perfect. My son plays his online games with them. I turn on my music in the house and no one is disturbed.

Nice quality sound. Good directional sound for gaming.

inwas caught if guard how well the Dolby atmos effect works from a set of stereo headphones. I can pinpoint the location of other players by sound.

For the price point great headphones I've had some that cost a lot more and aren't half as good as these I would definitely recommend these to a friend

Great sound and a great mic, great for team games and clean enough for good audio when streaming. Look and feel like great quality as well.

This headphone is very good for anything you listen to. Games,Movies and music will sound different which you will head 360°.

Let me start this review off with a warning to anyone planning to purchase this for a PC. This headset while being supposedly designed with PC gamers in mind comes equipped with a single 3.5mm cable. For those gaming on some laptops that may present itself as a non-issue as they often times come equipped with a single 3.5mm jack with combined output and mic capability. For the rest of us, the design is problematic unless Plantronics had seen fit to provide a 3.5mm headset splitter. This would have allowed for one audio output jack and one mic input jack. This is such a glaring oversight that I have docked them an entire star. Why you might ask? Mostly because Plantronics makes it a point to market the headset as being optimized for PC. I am sorry, but without the adapter it is useless as a PC gaming headset in my book. I ordered one and am now in business... fact is, I should never have had to order one. Ok, on to the actual review. The RIG 500 Pro is a supremely comfortable headset to use. It is very easy to adjust and once fitted can easily be worn for hours without fatigue. The mic has a physical flip up/down on/off setting which is very convenient if you need to quickly mute yourself during play. The audio is nice and balanced for the price. No, it isn't going to replace your $1k magnetic planar headphones for music listening, but they still sound decent regardless. The mic is clear and easy to understand based on my testing with a few remote players I asked. Overall, the headset is comfortable and offers clear audio. The headset also comes with a code to access Dolby Atmos for Headphones on Windows 10 PCs, as well as, Xbox and it works well enough. Is it the same as having discrete speakers? Of course not, but the effect is real enough that you can pinpoint objects behind you and even above or below assuming the game supports it. I did also test the headset on both my PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. The headset worked without issue on both as I would expect. My biggest complaint aside from the lack of an adapter is the rather short cable it comes with. For console use it was fine as it was connected to the controller, but for my PC it was a real stretch. Fortunately, the spliiter cable I picked up gave me an extra 3ft to work with. On the plus side, the supplied cable does have an inline volume control which is always nice. For the price it is a solid, wired gaming headset. Just be sure to pick up a headset splitter if you are intending to use this with most desktop gaming PCs.

Haven't had any issues with the device so far or at least haven't heard my little brother screaming about his headset being broken.

I bought these to replace another cheap broken pair. Definitely worth the money. They are like new after 30 days in my kids room.

If I got these on sale on black Friday they are great sound quality both through the microphone and the surround sound in it

Mic stop working first week of use. Sound is good, feel is good but it is sad that the product didn't last even a month.

completely satisfied with this Plantronics RIG 500 PRO gaming headset.the flip-to-mute microphone is simple to use.

I like these headsets, but if you use them for the xbox one they seem to be really quiet unless you turn the xbox volume to the max setting. I also found the same to be true with the computer. I would get the next step up that's wireless to see if it's better.

I’m glad I made this purchase and recommend this to anyone

So nice to not have to listen to the players and sound from the games. Highly recommend a set of these.

Bought these headphones for work. They do not do bass well, nor do they block sound out but they look cool.

This headset has been great for my boyfriend! The only thing he wishes is that it came with a splitter.

i bought for my son.its almost 2 years now i bought in Aug 2018 still working good
