Great Entry Level Headset
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Over the years I`ve used a multitude of gaming headsets, but I had yet to use one by Plantronics, but I can say my first experience with Plantronics has been great and I have been extremely impressed with this product. Firstly, with the overall aesthetics and build quality I don`t hesitate to give it a thumbs up as I am very conscious of the look of my headsets and I enjoy the subtle black and gold color scheme that isn’t bold and in your face and with this price range it is definitely nice not to have a cheap feeling entirely plastic built headset. The fit of the headset works great for me as I have a smaller head and many headsets now are overly bulky as they attempt to take noise canceling and an abundance of drivers to the extreme leading to a massive headset. This headset is able to do that while also creating a more compact form factor that I can appreciate. The comfort is also exceptional with these as I have used them for a couple prolonged sessions so far and have not had any issues at all as the earcups are very comfortable and the headset is truly lightweight and not cumbersome in the slightest. Then in regards to the most important aspect in the performance of the headset I was definitely impressed with how well they performed for this price range. Many times headsets will get solid reviews and a good feedback from the community as a result of just having overpowering bass so that explosions really pop and footsteps become overbearing, but this headset is able to balance those aspects nearly perfectly so that all aspects of the environment can be heard. I also really enjoy the convenience of the boom mic being able to flip up and mute yourself and a huge aspect for headsets in this price range is that the boom mic is actually detachable which is a major plus. I`m also one that prefers to have volume controls near the controller so that I can turn the volume up quickly in those tense moments to better hear sounds then adjust it back accordingly once a round or match is over and having the easy to turn dial right there is amazing. Overall I would definitely recommend these to someone looking for that sweet spot of the price range that doesn`t want to shell out hundreds of dollars for a headset, but is looking for something a little more than your generic stereo sounding headset and this headset is exactly that in that it provides a great build quality, exceptional comfortability, and a well-balanced sound.

Great when it works
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just less than a year into my purchase, the mic is failing. Otherwise, it's well built and a nice product. Finding a replacement mic is difficult, and I will have to replace the entire headset by mailing it back (shipping paid by me) instead of them sending a new mic.
