I was skeptical to buy these just because they are brand new. I saw the 4 reviews left on them and thought it was spam. Haha. No one had even put a full review on YouTube either. To be honest I have the turtle beach 500x series and love them, but as time goes on after 3 years they have broken on me. I went and bought the turtle beach 700s....DON'T BUY THOSE. EVEN AFTER FIRMWARE UPDATE, THEY HAD A LOUD RING TO THEM. Returned them and went with the 800lx. The Dolby Atmos is crazy good. It makes it sound like your at the theaters. Tried it with Madden 18 and I gotta say I was impressed. Now while scrolling through the Xbox menu I did notice it would ring from time to time but it would stop as long as I went and highlighted another widget. I would go back and it would do it again sometimes. It was not enough to where I said "I'm going to return these now!" Like I did the 700s Turtle Beach. I tried the 800lx's with some movies and they were just amazing as well.
Pros : lightweight
Awesome surround sound
Comfortable
Convenience of the mic being muted
Bass boost for music
Price for wireless headset
Easy set up
Noise cancelling
Scroll to the importance of chat or game sound to your preference
Fit (adjustability)
Cons: small ringing from time to time (could be because it's RF based and I have a lot of electronics in the area)
Non detachable Mic (not to important to me but just a heads up for others)

I first purchased the original version in 2016. It lasted three years, and only become unusable because the battery failed.
I purchased this 10/23/19 and had to return it a few days later because the right earcup made a pop sound, then stopped working. I got the replacement, then a few days later the same thing happened. I replaced it again, then the same thing happened to the left earcup.
I thought it was just that specific store, so I exchanged it at another store, and this one turned out to have a defective USB dongle!
Needless to say, I returned it and am no longer purchasing from Plantronics/Rig until they get their stuff in order.
