    Another good product from steelSeries. I already own the arctis7 but lost the wired cable to play on my Xbox one. So i bought these since they were on sale and boy they don't disappoint. Doesn't have the fancy features my 7 has but will do the job for just the xbox one.

    Decent product for the price. It does have some mic sensitivity issues, however, this can be fixed in your console or PC settings. I am still enjoying using the product.

    okay im going to start with the bad stuff first: 1. it was pretty tight on my head and hurt/started giving me a headache after only like 10 mins (keep in mind im a pretty small gal and i have a tinyyy head-i was dyingg to take it off-so if you have a bigger head its definitely going to hurt) 2. it has on ear controls (volume and mute) which some people like but i dont since i can never seem to find the buttons 3. more on the heavier side yet still felt pretty cheap like one wrong move and it was going to snap in half onto the good stuff: 1. the ears swivel to flat which i loveee since i dont have a stand and i just set it on my bed when im not using it 2. it has a detachable mic which is great when storing it or traveling 3. the sound and mic quality was pretty good nothing really to complain about (im not a crazy streamer or anything just a casual player so i didnt need anything super fancy) 4. it is adjustable and just barely fits on my tiny head on the smallest setting so it should fit most people overall its just kinda meh, sound/mic quality gets the job done but feels cheap and hurts to wear for a while and at this price range youre better off looking at other brands

    Great for entry level gaming. Fairly comfortable. Don't feel very high quality but for an entry level headset it is hard to beat price to performance.

    Great sounds quality for the price. It really helps you know which side an enemy is coming from while gaming. This is the 2nd set in my household, as we like it that much. Both sets have no issues after over a year for the first set and about a month for the second set.

    Bought as a replacement for the OEM XBOX One S headphones because of mic issues and the build quality and acoustics are far superior in-ear and microphone.

    it’s a solid headset and does what you pay for. i have previously owned a razer kraken headset for 3 years and the sound quality was much better on it but this is not terrible

    Nice set for the money. Sound is good but you don’t get the clarity as good of footsteps because of the deeper sound. Still good for the money.

    Bought this for my daughter for when we play Fortnite. the Audio from the mic comes in really clear and there is a decent amount of noise cancelling, at this price point this is one of the better headsets.
